I am not familiar with the Cork A.U.L. rulebook. It is an F.A.I. rule and, as you probably know, F.A.I. rules supersede affiliated leagues' rulebooks.

Nononsense, thanks for the information. We will familiarise ourselves with the F.A.I. rulebook.

Lordan played in goal for the Cork footballers in the recent Mc Grath Cup competition. It was basically a development squad that was formed to try and unearth new talent for inclusion on the senior panel for the upcoming national league and championship campaigns. By all accounts he acquitted himself well. Whether he makes the full panel is down to the selectors, as aside from Quirke who is first choice, they have Paddy O' Shea and Ken O' Halloran as back up keepers.

Lads just to make a point - Tipp beat the MSL side 1-0 before xmas! I was at the quarter final last year v Tipp and they are a good side!!

I thought the team performed well - it was always going to be hard to maintain the intensity of the first half performance and the MSL side were always going to have a period when they were on top

Tipp up next - hopefully another good performance will see us through to the Quarter finals

ola come on and yes i know a win is a win and you can only beat whats put in front of you,,but i took in an hour of this game myself and the msl side were the worst i have ever seen,only as good as a normal aul one side.the best players of that msl team refuse to play according to manager of one of their sides.aul never tested at all condon and kearney had a stroll in the park with the lightweight forwards from msl.kearney is a class act,really showed his munster senior league experience.waS A little surprised to see graham keane play right full ,when he is one of the best play makers in the game.a lot tougher tests lie ahead.the quarters is a certainty ,then its the big boys.

Well done to the Aul team last night, even though the Msl team were i thought very poor for that standard of competition. They could easily have gone in at half time more than 3 up.
The big fish in the MSL are circling around Macroom at the moment so wether ye ll have the boy wonder for the next round remains to be seen.

So bloody what!
Why do people think if a lad is a good gaelic football keeper he automatically is a good soccer keeper. This is not so.
Playing in goal in soccer is far more difficult than the glorified ball boy that a GAA keeper is.
All he does is get the ball back into play.

And as for anyone who gets within a sniff of a Cork GAA team, some people think he must be great at all sports. Busllsh1t.

I've seen good GAA players who couldn't trap a bag of cement when playing soccer, and GAA keepers who couldn't save stamps when they moved into "the big goal".
Also, for what it's worth I don't rate Quirke or O'Shea too highly as GAA keepers either.

Well done to the AUL team last night especially the gaffer, sharpshooter...and the keeper of course :-)

And just to prove that the opposite is also true, Paddy O'Shea is an outstanding soccer keeper. I've played with him for a few years, and he is routinely courted by Rockmount and Cobh.

I've seen him play with Villa and I certainly wouldn't swop him for our Keeper, Brendan Hurley.

Maybe, although I would have only seen Brendan the two times a year we played Kinsale I dont think I would be in a position to compare the two. Brendan never really stood out for me but I wouldnt base his ability on the relatively few times i saw him.

But I guess the fact that Paddy was with Cobh Ramblers as a senior, and also on the Cork panel would suggest there must be something about him. And of course the numerous matches he practically won for us on his own for Villa back in the day.

Dead right to stay in Macroom and hold out in the hope of a Blackstone offer!! Keep working hard!

The sniff of the Cork team proving a players ability is like the fact that every guy from Poland seems to have played with the Polish Under 21s!!!

Shilts, I'm not praising the players ability in either code, I'm just replying to Shetlands post concerning Lordan's availablility for last nights game due to his involvement with the Cork footballers.

some people are never happy....might it a been the fact the we were far too strong for them and didnt leave them play every time they got the ball we were in their faces didnt give them a chance to play....roll on tipp..

sharpshooter call a spade a spade they were shocking ,come on in their faces ,out of their faces they were very poor.you will see that in the tougher tests that lie ahead.good teams will be able to adapt to players being in their faces.

Shilts, have to disagree with you about Paddy O'Shea. Played with our Seniors for a couple of seasons and was outstanding. Probably the best in MSL at the time. No coincidence the 2 years he played we won the MSL and were runners-up the following year. I did play against him when he played with Villa but he was fairly young then. Well done to the AUL team - Holden I'll be sending Mr.Freyne down to you if you keep scoring, you'd love the northside.

28/01/2011, 11:15 AM

I must admit that I've seen him play only a few times... but in those games he didn't impress me.
However, everybody is entitled to a few bad games, so I'll bow to those that have seen him play more regularly than me.

Big game for us on sunday
Home v Bellurgan from Dundalk in the FAI Junior Cup
Hopefully we can continue our good form.

Another awayday in last 16 of AOH cup for us! Thats 5 in a row over 3 years in the latter stages. We lost 4-1 there last year, but were one up for an hour and had 2 cleared off the line before they equalised. Complacency would be an error on their part!

Radio, by my calculations Carrig have either Wilton, Bohs/Springfield or Glenthorn/Cathedral Celtic.

Best of luck to all teams representing our league this weekend - do us all proud.

Don, all ready for our visit to North Cork. Big one for both sides

On another note the gaffer has been in the transfer market today and done a bit of wheeling and dealing and secured the signatures of 5 players.... names to follow in the next few days so bear with me on that one but i do know we have signed 2 keepers 2 strikers and a midfielder....So that will certainly strenghten the squad after losing the 2 Cronins in the last few weeks!

Village 0-1 Bohemians

Very scrappy win up in Villages pitch this afternoon not much chances created by both teams but when the main chance came we took it well enough.
1st half we defended up the hill and kept the village forwards scoreless however we did nt create much ourselves but wer very happy going into half time with the draw.
2nd half Village started the brighter but still could nt break down our defence.
We made a change on 70 mins when gaffer changed the formation and brought on new signing Wayne o Leary making his debut and the young signing took his chance brilliantly by scoring with barely his 1st touch after following up a shot from Christy Bullman to put us 1-0 up.
Last 10 mins Village pushed hard for the equaliser but with our other new signing Tommy Martin on goal and our 2 centre halfs playing like rocks we held on to claim all 3 points.
