Lads if you get send off in a cup match and your team are knocked out of that cup, where do you serve the suspension. Is it in your domestic competitions or the next match you play regardless of what competition it is? Just would like to clarify that

It you get send off in a cup match and are knocked out of the cup i'm 99% sure its the next lg match

[western gale]

If you get sent off in a munster junior cup match or in an fai junior match you must serve suspension in munster junior or fai. If your team are knocked out of that cup the suspension must be served in the next domestic competition your club plays in

[Ask me tom]

Can`t see any games going ahead Sunday if we get the weather thats forecast. Heavy frost and ice for Friday Saturday and Sunday.

[western gale]

This weather is a disaster and if the forecast is as you say it is ask me tom there will be nothing on. At schoolboy level the last four days have being a disaster with hardly anything played. Is “summer soccer” the solution? ? ?

[Ask me tom]

Unfortunately the weather for next weekend is ment to be as bad if not worse than last week.

[western gale]

I dont think it can get any worse weatherwise, there will of course be plenty fixture congestion

[buddygeary23]

If the regional v Newcastle west game is called off over the frozen field,does Ncw have home advantage then? Anyone know?

[maestro]

If the regional v Newcastle west game is called off over the frozen field,does Ncw have home advantage then? Anyone know?

If all fixtures are called off before sunday the fixture will stay as is. However if it is left to a pitch inspection and is called off, the fixture will revert to NCW the following week. One thing about Regionals pitch is that it gets the sun ( if any ) all day. So if there is any thaw on sunday the pitch should be ok.

[Gearysfan]

Sure its only delaying the inevitable. Regional should win that fairly easy. They have two of newcastle west best players for the past few years and newcastle expect to win. I don't think so........

[soccer8]

i have to agree with ya...i dont think there will be that many teams come may..rathkeale,newcastle west and abbeyfeale will be the only teams up there come may..maybe glin..i heard that power is coming back to ncw and have whelan just back from australia also.never heard about butler thou...the two o connors are back from australia end of this week...rathkeale obvious favourites for the league at the moment....


is it true that David O'Connor and Kieran O'Connor are back with NCW and whats the story with power?

[buddygeary23]

David and kieran o connor are back from australia but only until end of this week.they came home for xmas and are leaving on friday..daniel power is still with fairview rangers but is injured for past two months and he said he'll be out till end of the season..i think he said it is his knee thats injured..cant see any games going ahead again this weekend.

[Ask me tom]

Newcastle 1-0 Askeaton.
A good game but a terrible result for Askeaton.
The only way I can describe this is daylight robbery. Askeaton dominated from the first minute until the last but the ball just wouldnt go in. Missing Foley and Griffin was the difference. Newcastle looked solid enough at the back but produced nothing up front.

Two big games on next weekend. Best of luck to Askeaton and Newcastle against two Limerick City sides. Would be great to come home with two wins, great for the league

Those two Injured?

[Ask me tom]

Those two Injured?


Griffin had family commitments as for Foley I honestly don't know where he was so I can't say.

[sky blue]

well Ask me Tom, is there any truth that Foley is not playing anymore?

[sky blue]

Well Lads, what are the predictions for Sunday's games Premier, FAI and Munster junior ?

[Ask me tom]

well Ask me Tom, is there any truth that Foley is not playing anymore?

Like i said above I've no idea what the story is Sky Blue.

I went to see the Abbey vs Broadford match on Sunday. Abbey dominated for 70 min. They look a really good team but play a very high line and are not exactly blessed with pace at the back, still though I think they will win the league this year. I know they are 6 points behind Rathkeale, but Rathkeale have Abbey to play twice, Broadford to play twice and Newcastle to play in Newcastle. I dont think Rathkeale are capable of winning any more that 1 of those 5 games, where as I think Abbey are capable of doing a real number on Rathkeale now that they seemed to have hit form. As for poor auld Askeaton, I am afraid the game is up.

I would have to agree that Abbeyfeale will take points off the top teams before the league is over but i don't think they will be able to do enoughto win the league.
Askeaton however i think are finished. Good team with great heart but the loss of carrig and whelan is a big blow. Also ive been told that Ray Foley will be signing for a new team later on this week so that will be a big loss.

I wouldnt have rated Abbey either before last week, but they are well organised and have the forwards to score goals, I have seen Rathkeale and to be honest I dont rate them at all. As for Foley, he too is very over rated
