[Dixie's Cousin]

Welcome Freddie, are you involved with anybody? Tis gone fairly quiet here apart from Holden going to Wilton!!! Anybody else have transfer news?

[villaman10]

just wondering if ye can help me lads, went to the title decider between carrig and springers, garrig had a fella up front playing for them called remington, just wondering is he the same fella who used to play senior for ringmahon rangers?? and also why is leonard healy still playing for carrig, surely with leeside on his doorstep they must have tried to sign him??is a super player!!

I'm almost certain he is the guy that played with ringmahon.

Maybe Boo can answer about healy

[Innishvilla]

and also why is leonard healy still playing for carrig, surely with leeside on his doorstep they must have tried to sign him??is a super player!!

Is he from Carrigtwohill? Maybe he has a bit of club loyalty?

[casilles]

Lenny Healy fine football who is asked ever year by both leeside and midelton to sign and springers too but wants to get up with his own club. Work with the man myself and have asked him numerous times to gone too.

[freddieflinston]

On the transfer front i here Premier AUL clubs on both sides of the river will be looking for new goalkeepers!! Wont mention names but a few high profile players!! A very special position , a good keeper is hard to find

[Horse24]

AUL rumoured to be losing volunteers after 30 plus years due to the lack of loyalty in modern society.

I am not blaming the "Playstation Generation" - it is the lack of recognition of the fact that it is happening.

MSL rumoured to be losing a volunteer of 40 plus years due to the same lack of recogniton of the increasing pressure the volunteer is under.

The next wave of volunteer is not coming. Ask yourself honestly the following question:

If the small group of volunteers who are the core of every club had to leave for whatever reason, has your club got replacements?

If the answer is yes - I am glad. I suspect in the vast majority of cases, the answer is negative.

Shouldnt we fix it before its too late?

[sharpshooter]

brendan hurley gone from kinsale big loss....

[Fantasista]

leonard healy is playing with carrig cos its his home town club and he is loyal which is fairly rare these days anyway no offence don't really see what he would have to gain by going to springers with carig looking strong for promotion next season leeside would be a good step up midleton would be a step down seeing as they got relegated this season and looked fairly poor all season and don't think he would up to scratch playing with there senior side

[casilles]

Where Hurley going sharpshooter?? Who ever he signs so is gonna get a top class keeper.
Any other rumours for me?

Fantasia is has been the senior side that hasbeen on to him. My opinion he is a good footballer and a top left back or centre half when played there.

[six-yard-box]

David Cronin signing with garryduff I heard tonight

[thebooboys]

Hurley supposed to be going back to Bandon. Kinsale's best player lasy year IMO.
Leeside would welcome any player from Carrig, including Ducky, or any other club if it improves the team. Ducky is a good player and has been asked in the past, and has chosen to stay in Carrig.
As for him not getting on the Midleton Senior side, i know many of that team and have played with a few too and again IMO theres certain guys on that team who I believe he is better than, but again footballs all about opinions.

[casilles]

Ya heard that alright lasnight. Wonder of money is involved????

[six-yard-box]

Are you going playing next year now cas??

[sharpshooter]

he has a choice between 2 senior teams top keeper one of the best in cork..

[casilles]

I'll have to see 6 yard box. Big loss.

great point horse. i suspect in 9 out of 10 clubs its that core 5-10 people doing the same job now that they did ten years ago.

dont know what the answer is apart from genuine recognition or maybe some token reward to people like a weekend away on behalf of the club or something. its just in some people to do and other not to do. thats life.

bigger clubs with more members of course find it easier.

its not an easy one to solve. the fact i am the only one to answer you (i think) tell it's own story perhaps as to where this subject sits in the priority list.

in fairness players need to concentrate on playing but when they finish should probably put it back into the club.

problem is which club as fellas move so much now.

[villaman10]

ducky would get into most teams, thats why i was wondering why he was still at carrig down in that level, i meant the midleton senior side, and leeside as that would be a step up!! thanks for the clarifaction lads!!

[super_mario]

Crow to Garryduff?? Not a hope I'd say!!

I agree - the next wave of volunteers is not coming through. It is a thankless job at times and I do feel it is important for all club members to acknowledge the contribution of the their committee's, helpers and managers each season along with the guys running the leagues, we can all make complaints about improving the system but it is always easier to tell others what they've done wrong rather than offering to help out.

Example: look at something as simple as websites. All clubs could/should have one. The older guys running the clubs normally don't have the experience/confidence to get a club online - there isn't exactly a queue of younger guys offering to do it. As well a lot of the clubs that do have a website are actually paying to do it (someone like leagues.ie), i.e. can't find a volunteer in the club so have to spend more of their hard fund-raised money on the website. Don't get me wrong the likes of leagues.ie do a great job but surely most clubs will have a few guys that are computer literate enough to put together a club website???

[casilles]

Why so super Mario ???

[six-yard-box]

Half your team being tapped up cas?

[super_mario]

Because cas why would he sign with a team all the way down there?? Tat is a lot of travelling 3 times a week

[casilles]

fellas getting calls left right and center myself included

[qwertyui]

Interesting move Sharpshooter, best of luck with it.

Haven't heard much about ourselves only that another top class keeper has been lined up. Bodes well for the future. We'll see what else happens over the next few weeks.

[casilles]

ahh ffs!!! Hurley was a big player in the way ye play qwertyui. just a question what was the name of the keeper that used to be there maybe 3 years ago, I can remember ye had the 2 of them at the time. Good keeper too

[villaman10]

Good one glenbuck haha!!!

[villaman10]

hey boo, is there any truth in the rumor that ye're manager from two season ago is on the way back to ye as a trainer/coach??

[thebooboys]

No Villaman10 Coleman Mulcahy is taking over Boscoes & is bringing some top players with him, Johnny Barrett, Coleman Coady, and I think O Learys and Daly from Midleton are going to. Colemans brother Barry and ex Leeside/Youghal player Ken Dempsey coming up training team.

[pacman]

Colemans brother Barry and ex Leeside/Youghal player Ken Dempsey coming up training team.
Coming up to Leeside is it?
Are they replacing the two lads from last year or just doing the training?

[villaman10]

barrett is a good player alright, poor temperment though if i remember correctly, cody would be better than what bosco's have but wouldn't be calling him a top player!?! dont know of o'leary, is that the daly from mallow who plays for midleton?? why would he travel to bosco's??

well my source wasn't totally off track so!! :-)

[thebooboys]

Maybe you can check with your source again Villaman regarding the "unrest" down in midleton with a fair few supposedly wanting out? Plus is it Paul Deasy (ex city) youths Ye are on about going from midleton to Rockmount??

[Fantasista]

fella from mallow is tom daly he is playing senior and is not going to bosco's id say. Its thomas o leary (older one) and damien daly both midleton junior players who are going to bosco's apparently with a few more to follow would not be surprised to see a few more players who are not local join them also Coleman Mull has a lot pull with players

[villaman10]

not paul deasy either, not trying to as he is a senior player, all i can say bout the fella is that he played junior this year for midleton,!! what unrest in midleton boo?? your'e source's are obviously better than mine!!

[thebooboys]

unfortunately if i was to speak of the trouble down there i mite get in trouble with "the 12th man"

[Fantasista]

Nevermind the 12th man, spills the beans also paul shouldnt be getting a game with peg united let alone midleton or rockmount

[villaman10]

heard that from the man himself big hole to fill their boo...

[The Puppeteer]

Hello all! Just joined the forum. Been across channel for a while but have always been fond of Junior football in Cork. Looking forward to watching a lot of games this season. Have a few friends in different clubs so hopefully i'll be able to share some info with you all!

[thebooboys]

Have known for a few weeks, big gap to fill but we've got a replacement lined up, hopefully it'll work out.

[Horse24]

Damien O Mahony gets AUL ref of the year - Spot on.

[thebooboys]

Damien O Mahony gets AUL ref of the year - Spot on.

Ya he had a good year, as did Paul O Sullivan and Pat Murphy.

[Glenbuck]

Damien O Mahony gets AUL ref of the year - Spot on.Fair play to him. But from what I heard he wont be challenging David Haye any time soon....

[Horse24]

Glenbuck, he deserves to move to the top (if I have picked up your heavyweight reference correctly). Unfortunately, more than referring skills seem to count. I would have him up there not far from the Gene level. Why? Common sense.

The 5 refs of the season picked by the various leagues.......................who pays the ferryman? Where is Blackstone's vote for the 600plus quid we paid out?? Coincidently, this season, we would have voted for the winner but that is not the point is it?

[casilles]
