Fixtures out on Monday, first series of games to start 19th July.

[stann]

Great stuff, thanks Sam.

Talking to one of our lads putting the side together here the rules and regulations were making it very very difficult for them.
With one set of players (schools maybe? not sure which) it will be the very end of June before the club will be allowed to start talking to them about coming along to try out, and then the first match was supposed to be the 4th/5th of July! Good that they've another two weeks of space now.

Is Kilkenny City still Jim Rhatigan?

[Youths4Ever]

Fixtures are finally out, big SouthEast derby for the kick-off! .....


as long as goes ahead first time this year :)

where are Waterford playing there under 20 games this year?

[stann]

Ha, yeah, hopefully won't be a repeat of the epic series of postponements of last year. :D
We're planning on being in the RSC for all five games as far as I know, unless some kind of clash crops up that might mean one being moved.

[stann]

Haha that didn't last long!! :D

Now looks like the first game might be switched to Ferycarrig on Saturday 18th.
We've Ipswich on the Friday, Monaghan away on the Sunday, and apparently the RSC is booked all day Saturday.
So it's either that or midweek! Will find out shortly I believe.

Anyway, there's a bit about our squad gone up on the club site (http://waterford-united.ie/tp_news/u-20-squad-shaping-up/) there now.

[macka]

Limerick have a very good under 20s team this year and i think they do well and might win there league.:D

Any news on this game?

[stann]

Just heard there now.
The match is on at the RSC this Saturday (18th) alright, 2pm kick-off.

There was a pre-booking there from what I can gather, but whatever it was is off/postponed now, so we're free to use it.

Waterford 2 - 4 Wexford Youths Lee Aust, Graham Healy, Michael (Muzzy) Mullen and Jimmy Keohane with the goals for Wexford

Wexford went 2-0 up made 3 positional changes and it was 2-2 @ half time. The two goals Waterford got from a Wexford point of view where poor to conede bad marking Robert Vickers let player get in aroudn him and a soft pen. Wexford first goal came a lovely cross field pass from Warren Boarders to Lee Aust who finished well. The second the Waterford num 5 missed judge flight of ball and Graham Healy kept going and kept his cool.

Second half was close enough Waterford did apply more pressure with Wexford main chances coming on the break and set pieces. Waterford goal keeper was very impressive making at least 3 excellent saves but Wexford got there 3rd goal. Muzzy Mullen should have made it three with a one on one with the keeper but shoot went just wide before he did score. The goal Muzzy did score came after the keeper blocked down a shoot from Gaerth Wallace. Wexford 4th goal came in just about the last minute of the game. Martin Kehoe crossed the ball Lee Aust mis head the ball and it fell to Jimmy and he got it in.

Match report (http://waterford-united.ie/tp_news/u20s-unlucky-to-lose-out-on-opening-day/) on our website earlier this evening. Might be slightly Blues-biased though. ;)

Great game I thought, one of the best I've seen in a long time.

Your first two goals were sloppy from our point of view too, our defence looked like they'd never played together before, which they hadn't, in fairness. They got caught rotten twice. Two great finishes though, specially the second one (I thought that it was Marty Kehoe btw?).

Could have went the other way maybe when Andrew Power hit the underside of the crossbar at 2-2.
Then a massive bit of bad luck when Josh Byrne made a good save but pushed it right into Mullan's path.

I think you're a bit harsh on Aust for the 4th too, looked to me like a pretty decent header back! :)

Maybe Aust did mean it I will have to find out. Yeah that was a great shot that hit the crossbar. The second one was def Graham Helay number 10 Marty was num 11.

The Waterford team was impressive for a team that have probably never played together and when get better as then play more. Where as most of the team Wexford had out played at under18 together and won two all ireland Not all mind you some still under 18 and some in senior team Friday night.

[stann]

Sorry to go on about this Y4E, that's the worst of not knowing opposing players, but were some shirt numbers wrong then?

Healy was listed as 11, Kehoe as 10, and we're pretty sure it was 10 scored the 2nd goal alright. Were they the wrong way round?

Also, talking with a lad in the press box, while it was definitely number 7 who scored your first one, according to the list that was Robert Vickers (Lee Aust was listed as #8). It was the same fella that knocked that header back down for the 4th goal. Definitely Aust, yeah? Was Vickers 8 then?

I know there was at least one mix up with the numbers as Shane Dempsey was listed as 15, but had 17 on his back when he came on.
Haha I love U20 games! :D

They did, played on a cabbage patch. and a novelty of a 100 min game. waterford went ahead good goal too, two set piece goals one from ward and a flick from a corner by McGrath won it for limerick as the second half was forgettable as the wind took over. Ten added min by the ref :confused:

The second half was awfuly bad, first half was decent enough. The goal direct from the free kick was a cracking goal, i was right behind it! i thought your other goal was an OG? but maybe not. Our goal was a good goal too! and that cabbage patch is usually a GAA pitch too, the soccer pitch was behind where all the limerick people were, and its the last game there anyway, its been sold and about to be built on! We were missing a few players today too, some away and some had to link up with the 1st team for the game in mervue.
I thought the ref and his assistants were top class too, they'll be on the FIFA list soon :D

Its official Kilkenny City U20s are gone from the U20s League.
Pity as Buckley Park is a great place to play and visit:(

very sad to hear enjoyed having some many teams from area in the under20's playing each other. probably the end of soccer of Kilkenny now

[gael353]

so...is the one game Kilkenny played null and void?

[stann]

Oh don't you know it will be!
Terrible news though, a sad day. The majority of Kilkenny football people, and there are still enough of them, should be ashamed of themselves.

This is a dissastor. a five team division with only eight games now for each team. just say u finish in the play offs or quarter finals....massive 2/3 month gap from time of finishing your league. In come junior clubs to snap up all your unplaying players resulting in a weakened team going forward to the follow on games. No cobh, lifford, Kilkenny, Kerry etc surely a three game cycle should be introduced just to keep players at clubs
