Limerick Division 1A 2010/11

But Granville could draw level with them on 43 then

*snigger*

If Granville & Croom BOTH fail to win this Sunday, then Wembley are promoted.

wembley are up (as good as) it will be a major shock if they dont. be more chance of liverpool winning the premier league then wemble not going up

[xpskid]

congrats to summerville on going up but im absolutely puzzled how this has happened. by no means are they in the top 2 in this league no way!! they will be straight back down with a bang... FACT!!! on the other hand wembley deserve the right to be going into premier football and will survive imo... well done again lads
By no means? Look at the table properly will you??They have won as many as Wembley so far this season FACT!!! and do deserve to be promoted losing only twice,that's consistency and good league form.Fairplay to them because they have a good set-up at portland.It is true that the league table does not lie and is a reflection of the results since last August.

well done to all the boys down in sville, with a generally young new side they've excelled to return to premier,A league table never lies, Sville were the second best team all season and deserve every single success they get from winning promotion.

[WizardOnTheWing]

Second best booster, ye were top for most of the season and still are top..

[booster 03]

wembley beat us 3 times this yr, wer a bit behind them at the minute, both teams will find it tough next season.

Well done to Sville. Great to see the team going back up and I think with 1 or 2 additions to a young squad they will do ok next year. With a bit of experience added they'll do fine and thinking back there is quite a few players that came up through summerville schoolboy teams playing prem at the moment and a few who are not playing this year who are very capable of playing premiere if the management takes the initiative and goes and actively tries to bring these guys back they'll compete and if not it could be a long year.

Wouldn't agree with you there pal to be honest. Summerville and Wembley are a good bit better than all of the other teams this season. And they deserve to go up. But what I would say is that the teams who you would expect to be challenging at the top had poor seasons i.e. Geraldines, Granville, Caherdavin, Park etc. Since January, Croom are the only team who caused Wembley or Summerville any worries. At the start of the season I honestly thought 6 or 7 teams would be up there challenging

[sorelooser]

Well done to summerville and probably wembley on promotion. This time next yr will it be the same old story, 2 promoted teams straight back down too good for 1A not quiet good enough for premier. Any one think there should be a play off between bottom of premier and second in 1A for promotion/relegation or maybe newly promoted teams exempt from relegation for 1st year(bit mad maybe).

Too good for 1A but not good enough for premier dont make me laugh, you would think the premier league is the best in the Country or something. There is only a few teams in the Premier that are miles ahead of the rest e.g Pike, Fairview, Regional the rest are fighting it out year in year out, this year is a prime example. How many good clubs this year have been struggling to stay up, a lot more than the two that got promoted last year.Summerville and Wembley if we get promoted will stand the same chance as many clubs in Premier of competing and staying in the top flight.

[passandmove]

Well done to summerville on promotion and best of luck next season,soreloser we played 3 premier teams this season in various competitions beating 2 of them,other than pike we wembley a 1a side are the only team left in an out of town competition in april,take out pike and fairview and the premier is wide open,i have to say that 1a has been a breath of fresh air for our club this season with teams who have nothing to play for still plugging away and making it tough for other sides,THAT certainly was not the case in premier last seson when teams who where safe played weak sides from march on turning the league into a farce,yes the premier is where all clubs strive to be but 1a has done us no harm whatsoever.

[Zizou]

Tensions running high here in the last few days. I've found it intresting to see the begrudgers and the optimists battle it out for their sides. I think that Summerville and Wembley will do ok in next seasons Premier division. I fancy one, maybe even both to survive. As for comments that Summerville are not in the top two best teams in 1A, take a long hard look at the table. It never lies. Cups are random, anything can happen, but over the course of a season, the best team finishes top, second best finishes second and so on and so forth. I thought everyone in football understood that. Apparently not.
The very best of luck to the players and staff at Summerville and Wembley. You both deserve it and I am envious of your success. Hopefully that kind of season is in the near future of my own club Granville Rangers. We can but hope.

Well said and still a lot to play for in 1 A and not like the Premier league which is only a 2 horse race.
It wont be long now and we will be reading some crazy results in the relegation battle in the Premier league as teams do one another favours to stay up.

[Fairkop]

spot on BLUEBOY ,the next 3 wks in the premier will be a farce.

I agree with you 100%, but I would say Wembley would be better equipped than Summerville, thats just my opinion!!

Best of luck Sunday pal! (it could be a great day for ye if everything goes yer way! come Sunday evening ye could be in the final of the MJC and also be promoted to the Prem, but worse case scenario, ye get knocked out of the MJC semi final and ye still need 1 win from yer remaining games for promotion in the league (with the league title also there for the taking), which isn't a bad season at all).

Sound Alan, ya no matter the result sunday we will enjoy the day and give it our best shot.. The League win is very important to the team and club so no matter what happens sunday we wont be getting complacent.

[mufc]

yes i am bitter bald eagle as i am a member of geraldines committee and we failed to go up. all the talk about going up at the start was worthless now. fair play to summerville for going up but in my eyes they are harmless. we played them twice this year but failed to get a point on both occassions. if we got the points we deserved there then would be so different. summerville members cant say that they deserved anyting out of the games we played them

[SeniorBlue]

Lads may be a bit off thread but fair play to Caherdavin Celtic last night, best tenner value for a long time in ther night with John Giles, he was very good and spent hours there and signed everything asked of him and did all the phtos etc, very nice guy and its a pity more unctions like this arent held around the city

as a committee member you should be well displeased with the 8k ye shelved out for yer top manager!!! as bad svile may or may not be, they'l hardly do as poorly as ye did in yer last foray to premier football!! running your mouth off here with no back up is totally disrespectfull to svilles promotion this season, any1 who goes up, does so on merit... end of story!!

We're missing a few alright but we will be trying to win, that is without doubt. we would like to finish 3rd if possible, that would be a very good season for us, and hopefully next season we can go one better and get promoted

[skyguy19]

But Pike are playing Tuesday night against Star and Pike are playing St.Michaels Saturday night

uuuppps maybe Pike shouldnt have played Tuesday night after all.

[lankyboy26]

Prospect 2 Charleville 4

Prospect were the better team in the first half and ran us ragged at the back, we were all over the place. 1-0 to the home side after 10 mins, quite a fortuitous goal, the prospect striker taking a shot which our keeper saved but it then rebounded off the prospect striker again and into the net. 1-1 shortly afterwards, good through ball which our striker buried. Prospect deservedly went in front again from a penalty. We equalized just before the break, Prospect failed to clear a corner and our midfielder finished well. 2-2 at half-time

2nd half we were much better (wouldn't be hard), we were solid at the back and didn't give away many chances, except some long range efforts. We went 3-2 up on 50 minutes, excellent move which was nicely slotted home by our player/manager. We shortly made it 4-2 when terrible back-pass was intercepted by our striker and he calmly placed it home. Prospect never gave up. The ref disallowed a perfect goal for us then which would've made it 5-2 but it was academic at the end. Best of luck to Prospect for the relegation battle

jman I thought Prospect played well today in the first half, 2nd half they seemed to run out of steam, don't know if it's fitness levels or what? some of the attacking play by Prospect was very good, but the defending at times was poor

have to agree with you booster, throughout the season teams make there own luck good or bad and at the end of the season the league table tells the story

this has happened all season they are a 70 minute team for most of the season most goals they concede in last 20 mins fitness, interest, drinking before games no commitment what so ever that is the problem

watched this game aswell this morning and taught prospect were the better team in the first half but gave away two very soft goals and went in 2-2 at the break,for the first 15 mins of the second half prospect could of scoring at least 3 goals but then ville broke away with their first attack and scored again, very soft from prospect point of view and then prospect defender decided to pass the ball back to his keeper and gave it strait to the ville striker who finished very nicely prospect again had at least 4 b players playing today and no subs just not good anough for a team trying to stay up some players letting them down again just like to say fair play for the ville for giving it their all when they have notting to play for lets hope the rest of the teams do the same and make the relagation a fair one

They will beat Balla easily. It's in Balla's hands now with regards to relegation, if they get 6 points from their last 4 games they will stay up I reckon. I can see Prospect losing to Wembley and then drawing with Geraldines. If Balla lose at home to Granville they are gone, I can't see them winning away at Summerville, Wembley or Park

[blueboy2]

some things never change its a great club but this happens every year soon as p/p go out of the cup its total freefall the interest just goes i seen it first hand when i played wit them
It is a good club in fact there isent a club in 1 A that hasent won more trophies than Prospect in Junior football but thats a sign of the times when you see clubs paying expenses other clubs have to match that and Prospect wont do that.

It's a great club. And can I just say, from all involved with Charleville, fair play to Prospect today for a good game with absolutely no bad tackles and also the pitch was superb

[Zizou]

Summerville 4-2 Granville
A good game played on a perfect Portland pitch( no sarcasm needed, it actually was). We lead 2-1 at half time thanks to goals from P. Coffey and B. Lipper. The home side scored from 3 corners in the 2nd half, so we were less than happy with our defending. But a good game played on a fine morning with plenty of goals. Well done to Summerville on promotion.
My man of the match: Greg Hyde.

your right it is a fantastic club which has a great tradition and id just like to say that they have some fantastic players who are commited to the club who train and turn up every week and if they can get 3 or 4 more player with the same commitment they will be a very hard team to beat and im sure they will be changeling at the other end of the table

[passandmove]

Our squad is down to bare bones for the balla match,after sundays game our squad is threadbare due to injuries and a lot of the team have work tommorrow,be doing well to get a team together at this stage,dines beat caherdavin 2 1 in the cup.
