Cork AUL 2009/10

[Doug89]

Ya innish, looks likely alright...

Can't look beyond Sunday though... Dillons X will be a tough one no doubt, should be evenly matched so looking forward to it.
Just hoping now that weather will improve before the weekend, for some reason our pitch doesn't seem to be recovering as well as it used to from the rain, despite the hill, if there's not a decent breeze it won't dry out so hopefully the rain we are seeing today will stop and we'll pray for gales!!!

[littleman]

Hello Doug I watch Dillons quite a bit because they play only a stones throw away from my house.In fairness they have a great attitude an their team spirit is a credit to them.Dont be fooled by appearences as they have some smashin players and are very effective.

Streetscene it seems to me that in Cork the norm is that you hear a player is leaving a club or joining one in the pub first,an a website second so though you may want to be diplomatic an I appriciate that for me I dont see why you have to explain yourself.I was told Shane was movin in December.Those 2 players mentioned made their own decisions to join Blarney St an they wernt poached or tapped up.Shane hasnt played much for the club he has left and the same goes for Greaney so it wasnt a big surprise to anyone who I have talked too about either player leaving.

With regards to Kinsales lead,I agree they have to be very happy with the weekends results as it was a great 3 points won,an especially so as Wilton should have had 2 stonewall penos in the last 15 mins.So ya I think it was a good 3 points.Leesdie are goin well an a blip was to be expected at some stage.It happens to every team.Kinsale have gone through theirs an us too so ya just have to get on with things an hope it improves.

Every side will have a blip where they play badly for 4 or 5 games.We had ours an its cost us the extra cup games we are used to having but at least we are still in with a shout.Confidence is very high an we should have plenty of energy due to us making early exits from the main cups.Cant wait for a bleedin game to be honest....a chance to make up for things.

County Cup result from wknd

Kinsale B 0-4 Passage

Anyone know when the draw for the next round of this is???

[the owl]

looks like the weather could spell trouble for a few games this weekend lads !!

[olachico]

Monard will probably be fine :-0 Noahs Ark could sail by and Monard would probably be just about playable :-P

[boshea]

For any managers/coaches out there......if you're games are cancelled this weekend, or in the coming weeks, but you still want to have a training session, I can facilitate classes at my gym in Midleton.
It's a Thai-Boxing gym (might be handy for fisticuffs on the pitch :D) but I also run circuit training/strength&conditioning classes which can be geared towards football players.

It's a new venture for me wrt training teams, so I'll be offering extremely competetive rates if anybody wants to take me up on it.
Have a look at www.midletonmuaythai.com (http://www.midletonmuaythai.com) to see the gym or www.corkpersonaltraining.com (http://www.corkpersonaltraining.com) to see a little more about me. Websites are being built so aren't fully populated yet.

Any questions, feel free to give me a buzz on 087-2494657.

Good luck

[The Guvnor]

Munster Junior Cup (Second RD)

Casement Celtic 1 Leeds 8

[super_mario]

Bohemians 4 vs 1 Richmond

Good win for us and into the Quarter final of this cup.

We started very well and controlled the game for alot of the first half, we went in at the break 2-0 up and added 3rd 10mins into 2nd half and made it 4 soon after. They then got a penalty which our keeper was very unlucky not to save.

Job well done on our behalf and its onwards and upwards or Bohs

[olachico]

Blackstone 3 - 2 Greenwood

happy with the result !! Greenwood are much better than their league position suggests . All our 3 forwards scored ! Thought the ref did well today

[The Guvnor]

Munster Junior Cup (Second RD)

Casement Celtic 1 Leeds 8

Started the game well, considering our lack of match practise. We hit the ground running. 4 up at half-time. Casement pulled one back from a good free kick. but we added 2 more in quick succession. Then Killed the game off with two more. Dean Buckley and Gary Nolan both enjoyed getting hat-trick.

Great Team Performance, Waterloo next and hoping to enjoy a good run in the MJC

[Onefootednopace]

Killowen 0 Coachford (B) 0.

Defences on top at Killowen, although Coachford will be regretting a bad miss early in the 2nd half when failing to hit the target in a one on one situation with the Killowen 'keeper. Always tight games between these sides over the years. Killowen can take a positive from the game in that was our 1st clean sheet in ages.

[junglegym]

Park Utd. 3-1 Coachford.
Played this game in their third pitch (id say). Bit of a hill and the fog was unreal. Thought I was in O Neill Park:p for a bit.
By the look of the results today strikers were on form around the county..
Not ours Im afraid.
On a better day we could have been at least 2 up after 10mins but with wayward shooting and slipping at the wrong time it just wasn't to be. Park had one clear cut chance in the 1st half and took it expertly. They led 1nil at half time and made it 2 with a spotter. We got one back but never seriously looked like getting an equaliser. They wrapped it up close to the end on the break.
That means 2 defeats by Park this year, their a physical, honest team and they will cause a lot of teams trouble this year. Hope we dont see them again this season.
Bad result today but good to be back after the Big Freeze.

[streetscene]

Football can be such a cruel game sometimes...one nil down with 8 mins to go we nicked an equaliser from gary Coughlan who never gave up on a long ball and managed to come out best in a scramble with the keeper to roll the ball into the net... Keeper was complaning the ball was kicked out of his hands but it was one of those ones that you see given one week and not the next.... was totally happy with the point at this stage and thought we were good for it but then we were hit with the ultimate sucker punch in injury time.... a fairly harmless ball up to the edge of our box and some how derek macarthy managed to create a bit of space and drilled a great shot in to the bottom corner... class strike from macarthy who was really well contained by john betts previous to this... so a huge kick in the ****s for us but nothing in it really...was very happy with the performance overall we showed a lot of character to bring it back level and we can feel hard done by not to get something out of it... have to bounce back next week... as for kinsale the good run continues and you could see how much this meant to them the way the celebrated.... physically very strong and will be very hard to beat especially down there... points on the board are everything and they are definetly the team to beat now

[littleman]

i looked at the league tables durin the week.If Glenthorn beat us an Blarney St got anythin at all then we could have gone from 3 to 6 an be well out of it.An considering we are the only side to be 1st,2nd or 3rd all season today was a big game.

I'll keep this short an sweet,,,,,,,dave sull/gerry kelleher/gouldie/shinkwin/figo,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the quality of the goals dont matter cause only the people present saw um,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but what i will say,,,,,,,,,who ever was lucky to see Figo's goal saw somethin once in a life time, so special words dont do it justice,,,,,,,,,,,,a magic moment,,,,,,,,



Points on the board are great Street ,,,remember we have 2 in the bag an we came from 20 points plus to win twice,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,taday we were untouchable.

Littleman we all know on here you are a closet Boyzone fan and "words" are all you have to describe it so at least give it a go!! :D I'm assumming it wasnt a tap in then ;)

[littleman]

Bella is that game goin ahead defo.

Did the quality of the goals "Raise you up" littleman??

[junglegym]

On my travels this morning, we were served up a cracker.
Killumney led 3nil after 47mins, Macroom scored the next 3 and Killumney scored the winner from the penalty spot.
Great entertainment for all.

[Horse24]

I cant see the results on the AUL webpage. Writing gone small as is known to happen. Anyone have a cure?

Oli, One more Boyzone comment and the club may have to introduce a foot.ie suspension for ya!!

Thats the sign of a top striker, half a sniff of goal and produces the goal when needed.

What was yer result Littleman?

What will TSDL be like?
If you wanna play hot players, then Monard is defo worth a look. I would go as far as to say 5 of our guys are flying at the mo.

Well done Springers - is that Rd of 64 or 32 next?

[Onefootednopace]

into last 32 now i think

Bella,

Is that the Springfield side that compete in A.U.L. 2A? If so they are a decent side and well coached. Played them earlier in the season at our place and in my opinion the best side we have faced so far in the league.
Best of luck in the next round.

[the owl]

Greenmount 2 Ballyvolane 1

Bitterly dissapointed to say the least. We had several chances once again but we just dont seem to have the rub of the green. The greenmount keeper had a good game and was also helped twice by the crossbar !!!! Dermot our keeper also made a great save from a penalty in the second half so it could have been worse. I have no doubt Greenmount will take points off other teams out there.
The only positive side is that we are creating good chances and are playing good football. im sure its only a matter of time before the goals come. Injuries to 3 key players didnt help our cause either as a few guy were playing out of position.
The referee had a good game despite in my opinion giving a a dubious peno !!

[bluey]

Leeside A 4-0 Pearse
Leeside B - Douglas Hall ( called off )
Hibernian 1-4 Leeside C

First team had good win today in FAI after disappointing result last week, was not at game today but heard could of been a good few more, also made a few changes today i think derek delea and coleman cody on bench also centre half out injured. Littleman seen ya heading in gate when i was heading off so you might post a report for us.

B team game on saturday was called off before kick off. ref was not happy with small area in centre of pitch which was soft and v mucky. Saftey was his reason for calling it off. Douglas Hall also thought it was to dangerous, myself i did not think so!!
Quick Question for people, before away game do ye go out and pace the 18 yard boxs?
was done in this case yesterday!!!!

C team have made it 2 in a row now. New year, new team!!! Great performance here v hibernian. 1-0 down with twenty to go and scored 4, to be honest goal was against run of play and should have had 4 or 5 before we scored the goals in last twenty.

well done bella on that win, great result. Didn know eddie o rourke manager until seen on echo friday night. I see conor hawes is there as well. seems to follow eddie around. Played with Leeside few years bac when eddie was in charge.

[bogwarrior]

Parkboy how come ye play on that pitch?! I have to say it is brutal. Terrible hill. The other two pitches would surely be a better option? Especially the far off one?

I Personally felt that if Blarney St got any result yesterday it would have been unfair on us. Hat full of chances with us only taking the two. Blarney st hit the bar at the start of the second but that only served to drive us on again. 1-0 up after a superb strike on the volley from Ger Harrington 25 yards out at the start of the second half. Blarney got an equaliser with ten left, their striker got it. Nice player. Challenged for everything. But in fairness we created another 3 chances before the end and took one of them. A little bit of magic down here as well from Scully with a superb one two with our other striker Sean Lyons before he smashed it in low from the edge. Two great goals to cap a great result.

Blarney st looked good. Big squad and well drilled. Cannot believe this was the same team that were hit for 6 by leeside. Good sporting contest yesterday.:ball:

[Onefootednopace]

[QUOTE=bellavistaman;1311476]Yeah we struggled that game a fair bit to be honest was it 3-2 or 23-1 tough game anyway. Same team alright, great achievement.



Bella, it was 4-2 to Springfield back in September. Looking forward to the trip to Cobh.

[Doug89]

MJC 3rd Round: Grangevale 3- Dillons X 2 (aet)

Lads, a humdinger yesterday that had everything you could ask for in a cup tie. 5 goals, 1 red card, a goal each disallowed for off side (Dillons in the last min of ET)!! We went 1 down after 30 seconds and equalised from a Dillons OG after about 10 mins. We went 2-1 up after 25 and Dillons equalised with a screamer with 20 to go. We scored early in the 1st half of added time and hung on at the end after getting a man sent with 5 to go. Great game to be fair & we were thrilled to hold out...

[Radiostar]

Ballyvolane B 1-2 Donoughmore

Our season continues to be a disaster, Donoughmore now hit top of league after this result, for how long depends on Bohs.
Must say Donoughmore were a very well organised and physical side, and those attributes probably was the reason they took all 3 points.

ya they are a good strong physical team who are well organised at the back. Was hoping ye might sneak a draw against them and tho ye might aswell.

So they go top but we have 3 games in hand. But we still in 4 cups so we prob gonna be playing no league games for a while if our cup runs continue..


We have postal celtic on saturday at mayfield all weather at 5. Watched them once this year and to be honest i wasnt impressed with them. They must have had a few players missing because i heard today they are a good team and are well able to play ball..

Has anyone played them this year or seen them play. Please let me know

[Radiostar]

A good complaint Mario, ye are doing very well this year, I can't see anyone catching ye on current form. But there is always hope!!!!!!

[super_mario]

A good complaint Mario, ye are doing very well this year, I can't see anyone catching ye on current form. But there is always hope!!!!!!


Dont wanna be boasting or disrespectful to anyone but i honestly feel we are getting stronger just signed another winger by the name of Kenneth lee. Kenneth is a very good player and is one of fastest players i've seen, added to the fact he is good with the ball and rarely gives it away and has serious fitness and has an eye for goal aswell he will have some defenses stretched to there limits in the last 15-20 mins of games..

[littleman]

Well Mario,you watched Postal once an u wernt impressed,heard they were a good ball playin side,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sounds familiar,i watched ye play an get beat by Mayfield up in their place,an wasnt impressed buy ye but it was only one game an il give ye the benifit of the doubt,an Postal deserve that too,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Bluey,honestly watchin the game I thought 4 nil was a bit flattering..Pearse though they defended terribly were quite the opposite in attack.In fact if they had of taken some of their chances they may have kept things a bit closer.

Ye always looked like winnin,but just maybe not by 4 goals.I presume Derek is injured cause its the only reason for me that Derek isnt starting,it was on of Coadys more quite games an I think hes a really good player.Johnny Barrett is a crackin player by the way.A real handful.Both sendings off were bang on,neither the Pearse lad of yer left back tryed to play the ball,,,,,,case book terrible tackles.

But all told ye deserved to win,an I hope ye do well in the next round.

Dunbar took Wiltons scalp,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Parkboy whats the story with gettin Junglegym to play on the 3rd pitch,an Junglegym,we dont have a slope,,,,,,,,we have a gentle encline with panoramic views of Knocka,ha ha.
















,

[littleman]

Bella before I forget,crackin result an we are all behind ye,,,,,,,

[super_mario]

Well littleman my opinion is my opinion and im not gonna change that, i'm just going by what i saw thats all. You seen us and you werent impressed thats your opinion tho you are entitled to that.

I wasnt being disrespectful to them i was just wondering did anyone have any info on them. I have been told today that they signed a few players and were missing players since the day i seen them so there is my explanation.

No big deal really is it

[bluey]

well as i said wasnt at game so cant agree or disagree with ya littleman. No derek plus any of the players on the bench where injured. think managment decided to make a few changes for this one. just shows strength of squad when they can do this and also 3 players missing on the day. Ya johnny is some player all right in fairness.
I know thebooboys was there so he might also give report

[Innishvilla]

Mario - on Postal

We were in a tight title race with Postal a few years back and played them twice last year. They are a team that if they have their 1st 11 on the pitch they are really capable of taking anyone... We always seemed to have close hard fought games with them but then every now and then you'd see a bad result that does not seem to make sense... But then don't we all have those days.

Also Springers best of luck in FAI - I see on the odds page ye are now 40-1. My heart would love to say put a few quid on ye but my head is ruling at the moment...

[littleman]

Mario I know ye are well able to play ball cause I watch ye in trainin an the Mayfield game was what it was ,just a bad day at the office.An ur right we are all entitled to our opinions,an we can make of it what we want in the end.

Blue, it looks a good squad alright an the attitude seems to be better than in previous years so fair dues to management an players alike.

[Doug89]

Mario,
We have played both Postal & Yourselves already this season, we beat postal 2-1 & lost 0-2 to you.
Take nothing for granted where Postal are concerned... they are a good side on their day, very physical and never give up in fairness to them. We were 1-0 up and comfortable but they deservedly got an equaliser late on and we won with a last min pen....

As for yourselves, obviously having lost out in our game 0-2, ye deserved to beat us but I have to say I was a little disappointed, ye got the 2nd in the last few mins when we pushed on but until then I thought we gave as good as we got, but as everyone knows, if you don't convert your posession, it counts for nowt & in fairness, ye scored 2 good goals on the day. Ye have an excellent side I would have to fancy ye to beat Postal but they are the type of team that will plug away & have the players to do damage on their day - so i wouldn't be taking anything for granted

[the owl]

Have Mayfield on Sat in the AOH. Good side i believe, any info lads ?

Still in my prime kid !!!!!..............well kinda......

[shetland]

You heard it here first

Gary nolan the best player in the AUL.

What a Talent!!
totally dissagree.,a walking timebomb,he is totally indissaplined and serves a lot of suspensions,grand when things going his way .

[littleman]

Not sure if I have the right fella in this bloke Nolan but Shetland if its the bloke who got sent off against us in the Aoh earlier this season then I agree 100% with ur take on the matter.Thankfully hes someone elses problem.

[Radiostar]

Ya agree with those comments on the above player, a good player with a bad attitude, causes his team too many problems because of it. If he matures he could play in any aul side.
