Cork manager Ben O’Connor has accused RTÉ of twisting his post-match comments following the League win over Galway last weekend. The Galway referee, following consultation with his officials, yellow-carded Alan Connolly and Willie Connors, and sent off Shane Barrett and Jason Forde. “What I'm on about is, and when I say soccer, red card, yellow card, technical areas, you can't go onto the field, can't get a message in. He got the ball and tapped your man on the back of the head, yellow card. Some of them aren't even a free, not to mind a yellow card.
