Limerick Premier Division 2008/09

[On The Ball]

Do you mean is a title winning side should be expected to beat Corbally handy enough ? Our team is made up of players from last year with the addition of minors from last year... we've also signed one or 2... but most of the lads are very young
I didn't mean to put ye down but the way striker 9 talks fairview should b beating everyone week in,week out.And everyone was writing ye off after the first 4 games against all the top teams.It's obviously a good team ye've assembled,good draw away against the supposed title challengers.Maybe striker 9 should think before typing.

IMO The best side ive seen so far this season was Regional... Well organised and dont give away the ball cheaply. If i was betting i have my money on them or Pike.. :ball:

[straightup]

pike will win the league our squad is too strong imo......regional always have a good start but fall away towards the end fairview will struggle against weaker teams.....i know we lost against regional at the start of the season but i actually think that was a good thing we have the strongest squad we ever had and hopes are high for the fai and being able to field a second side against weaker teams will benefit us greatly!!!!roll on the hoops

[maestro]

your right there , league is over. What price on Pike to Win MJC FAI and league? easy money if you ask me:ball:

id say you would get good odds on that and are glad you agree with me......... connie and casey have the boys getting on great and talk of players leaving havent seen that yet......only players wanting to come to club its great we can have anyone....were like man city now

[Noddy]

Have to agree, can't see anyone else but pike winning the league, could have it won by March i'd say. The other teams challenging will take too many points off each other to mount a challenge.

[oscar]

is it true Fairview are playing AA in the league this sunday,their MJC game is off???

[Balbec77]

it does not look good for games this weekend whats the boro pitch like, will it stand up to all the rain that has fell and we are suppose to get

[oscar]

the pitch is in good nick,got work done to it last year and very rarely are matches called off,there hasn't been a game on it in over a month so i can't see it being called off

[blinkx]

best pitch in town

Based on?

[oscar]

sand...its a sand based pitch:p:p:p

[Philbert]

what state will the pitch be in even if the game does go ahead though?

ALot of rain to come between now and 10.30 tomorrow

[oscar]

it holds up well surprisingly enough,was down there this morning and it looks in fantastic nick

[faces]

boro 1 killmallock 0 boro VERY lucky missed peno & scored within first 5 mins, then went to sleep..killmallock missed 1 very good chance in 1st half.. pitch cut up but not as bad as we thought.. killmallock play lovely football but very young and very small..if they can take the hit this year, hold on too the fine young players could be a fine team in a few years. have to give credit to boro players for attitude after final whistle.. they know what i am on about well done..

[leather]

not like you to get your facts incorrect oscar.. not a sand based pitch....:eek:

ya far play john the pitch is a credit to you great nick for the weather we have got , a draw would have been a fair result the ref was shocking for both sides he could not keep up with play, we only have our selfs to blame again cant seem to buy a goal

[oscar]

the ref hardly left the centre circle...agree he was very poor

[Balbec77]

the ref hardly left the centre circle...agree he was very poorhe was like a pybal pony he had a 20 foot circle ploughed up in the middle of the park :D:D

fairview 2-2 Aisling.fairview had a great chance to go one up after 20mins when kelliher hit the post.aisling broke up the field practically straight away and cusack scored from a shot outside the box to give aisling a deserved lead.farview equalised with 10mins to go in the half when kelliher dropped deep into space and played a one two with judge and then got on the end of it to finish well from inside the box.fairview started well in the second half with the wind behind them and kelliher scored after 5mins into the second half when a high cross was misjudged in the wind by the aisling keeper to give kelliher an easy tap in from 5 yards.fairview continued to press for the next ten mins but aisling weathered the storm and worked there way back into the game.aisling had at least 3 chances to equalize with the fairview keeper making good saves from ronan smalle on 2 occasions and from paul cummins.fairview always looked dangerous on the break but they couldnt convert some good possession to goals.with ten mins to go jason sheehan scored with a header from a sherlock free kick to level the game at 2-2. all in all a draw was probably a fair result for what was a good game of football played in difficult conditions in front of a large crowd.in saying that though aisling will be disapointed that they didnt get all 3 pts as imo they had more scorable chances.

[halo16]

was at the fairview and aisling game today.there is a fair amount of good players up in fairview warming the bench? rossi,harrington,grant cant get a start?anyone have a reason for this?are these lads just not better than the players playing today or what?cant see them hanging around subbing for ever.
thought todays game between view and AA was good entertaining game.thought kelliher and heffernan were excellent for fairview.john o dwyer was my man of the match.thought him and heffernan had a great battle.worked his socks off for AA

You must be looking for a job with the paper tedd;)

[dared]

no way do i think we should be beating teams easy im not even a regular with fairview yet so how can i boast:mad:
Get that transfer form in and we'll have you playing every week... :p cant understand why he has Morris and Kelleher up front , absolutely no pace there... 2 very good players but too alike IMO .

[faces]

[QUOTE=oscar;1088460]poor game
how do you mean poor game oscar.did you not see the conditions and the so called refereeing as both were scandulus.not making excuses for our loss but both didnt help.
also im not one for knocking referees as they are human but in all fairness that was shocking.every time i questioned a decision you wouldnt believe his answers.did he not realise there was twenty two players also frozen out on the field

[van der wheil]

Christy Doyle is suspended.

Spot on assessment of game...Similar to match after on the box between spurs and pompey in that both sides really went for the 3 points..On the day, Aisling were the better side and created far more scoring chances..
Best for the view were robbie kelliher and jeffrey judge while for Aisling was ronan smalle, aiden hurley and john o dwyer...All in all - great game and a fair result

well jugde would be better than rossi,harrington is playing poor this year is grant moving to australia is a week or two maybe thats why he is not playing big game next week regional at home to pike we win that 1 and do double over pike then people might take notice of us;)

[leather]

I see that boro are down to play corbally next sunday..(played each other in season opener) boro have yet to play carew or regional in the 1st round of league matches...what is going on??

thought kelliher was excellent myself.he looks to be getting back to his old self.didnt think judge did much tbh.had afew handy touches and linked well for the opening goal but was kept quite for majority of game imo. heffernan and young o brien at left full were the views best on the day alongside kelliher from where i saw it.

suppose its down to the usual messing up of fixtures up in the council leather.since corbally out of the national cups it looks like they are trying to get there league games out of the way which might be a bad thing as the last time i saw a table they had more games played than anyone.hope we dont have the same shambles as last year.

[leather]

I wouldn't bet againist it again..

[dared]

I wouldn't bet againist it again..
Have to say im surprised were playing this weekend dont get me wrong im not complaining, we went 6 weeks without a game at one stage... but i think it would have made more sense to get the first round of games played first.

Agree bit of a joke as per usual, Pike still have to play three games in the first round of fixtures as do other teams, makes no sense but then the LDMC seldom does

Fairview v Carew Pk
Boro v Corbally
Regional v Pike
Balla v Dromore
Wembley v Kilmallock
