Now that Butler & Doherty are transfering to NCW should they be called up to the Oscar Traynor squad for the weekend? I would say yes! Doherty would make the defence look a lot more solid.

Now that Butler & Doherty are transfering to NCW should they be called up to the Oscar Traynor squad for the weekend? I would say yes! Doherty would make the defence look a lot more solid.

Personally I dont think they should be called up for this wekends match dont think it would be fair on the rest of the squad. Sean Hanlon has signed back from regional aswell from what I heard.......

[Gearysfan]

Heard Hanlon is back aswell..... Good signings for Newcastle they will be hard to beat for the rest of the season. Don't think they should be on the Oscar trainer team though, it should stay as the original squad.

The match at the weekend in my opinion is pointless. It's been pointless since they appointed pj manager. I don't think he has the no how to manage a team as big as this. Leaving Behan and Riordan on the bench was a huge mistake and just playing for pride at the weekend is a result of a bad decisions made by both the league to appoint pj and by pj's own doing. I can't really blame him though cause he just ain't a good manager. That's just my opinion......

[buddygeary23]

Ya butler, Doherty and hanlon are back with Newcastle west afc

When is this tie, Broadford v Carrick Utd., due to be played?

[Gearysfan]

These ties are not fact yet. There are just been thrown around in other threads. I wud wait to see the full draw when it is released. Two hard ties for Desmond league teams though if it is true

[Draper]

Of course they are facts, check out the FAI Junior cup page. Plus Mike Hanley rang the relevant Des lge clubs last night regarding the draw.

hi guys,

Any info on broadford utd, we drew them in the fai, we've had mixed efforts versus limerick desmond teams over the years, but we recently beat rathkeale 3-0 in munster senior

[last man back]

hi guys,

There not as good as they have been in previous years and have had mixed results in the league, it would be a major shock if
thry were to beat carrick Utd. SORRY DRAPER

[Draper]

Dont be sorry, I am the special one!

Ya they are very poor, One of the three favourites to get relegated imo. Rathkeale would be much better than them and as far as I know beat them 6 or 7 nil in Broadford last year. Are the returning Newcastle boys cup tied for FAI

[buddygeary23]

Mark Doherty is cup tied in the fai and munster junior cup
Sean hanlon is cup tied in the fai but can play in the munster junior cup
Tossie butler can play in the fai junior cup but cant play in the munster junior cup

[Johnnie C]

They couldn't have picked tougher draws, at least Broadford are at home and hopefully they get a decent crowd. Would be great to see a DL side make serious inroads in the FAI but can't see either side progrssing.

[limkdesmond]

Ya both Desmond ties got tough teams to play against..can't see both getting past 2 great sides..broadford home to munster junior cup champions carrick united and Newcastle west away to fai junior cup runners up st michaels.. But u never know in cup football..it would be great to see one or both Desmond sides through to the last 32

[limkdesmond]

How come shannonside are away to glin this weekend while the Oscar trainers are away to cork?? Are the shannonside players not playing or been dropped or something??

[Harry Lime]

The Cork Shipping v Limerick Desmond game in Turners Cross is off tomorrow I'm told.

['El Nino']

Bit of both there.I head Behan couldnt make the match tomorrow (which is now called off I beleive) and Hanlon was thrown off the panel.

[mad4it]

Now that the transfer window is open again ive heard a lot of stories about bigger clubs trying to poach players from some of the smaller clubs. this is just gonna make the gap even wider between them and is not good for the league. do these clubs have any respect for the teams trying to work their way slowly to the top or is there anything that can be done to stop it?

[Draper]

That kind of thing has been going on since the dawn of time Mad4it, at every single level of football.

It happens everyday of every week in the Limerick League , but when someone moves to a bigger club in the Desmond League its a huge deal......personally I think any player should be aloud to move around clubs at the end of the day he is only trying to better himself and play at a higher standard.

I know it happens all the time and at all levels but ive seen clubs promising the world to players and then leaving them on the bench for the rest of the season....if a player wants to improve why not try their hand in the city league and not just go from one desmond league team to another...some of these players just end up rotting away on the sideline and i think its just a waste of talent..

Who have u heard is poaching or are you just opening a can of worms. I haven't heard of any other transfers other than the lads who are going back to Newcastle from Regional

[western gale]

[soccer8]

yes all matches should be played...... the weather is good for the weekend it going to reach 6 degrees:) it will be like a heatwave......

[happy days]

Ncw to win against Rathkeale 2 -1...Looking forward to it...You playing El Nino ???
Should be a tight contest...

[happy days]

Appart from snow...I wouldn't pick any other shannonside player...They are a good TEAM...but not many great individuals..Thats my opinion..Saying that, 5 or 6 thats on the squad already is shockin imo.I'm not getting into that now!!

[Draper]
