Cheers pal...........the second was a bit easier

[passandmove]

Pike 4 Wembley 3,huge decision at 3 2,gary neville clobbers barry dillon,stonewall penalty and a red card,instead mike kiely gives a goal kick.After the game he tells our managers it was penalty and that he got it wrong......unbelievable.The whole ground couldnt believe it even the pike lads where stunned.Lads it was such a poor decision words wont do it justice.Best of luck to pike for the remainder of the season.

I have to agree game looked over after 25min, what was neville thinking about in goals , first goal was a shambles and the third, how the ref left him on the pitch is beyond me he definately looks the week link in the pike team.

[passandmove]

And the free kiely gave for the 4th goal was never a free,when you go up to pike its a very difficult challenge,but when you get decisions like that tonite its soul destroying for our players, 3 3 pike down to ten who knows,it just wasnt to be i suppose.

Just got of the phone with Barry Dillon, Neville broke 5 of Barry's Ribs in than challenge... Kiely bottled it, terrible game on his part last night. He got a load of decision's wrong last night for both teams. Alan Barry handled the ball clearly on two occasions and so did borris and he waved play on...He is just not good enough for that level, people give out about alot refs and sometimes its over the top but anyone watching a game last night would have to agree that its time for mike to step down or go down a few leagues.

[passandmove]

He looked in a fair amount of discomfort after the match alrite wizard,hope he makes a speedy recovery.As for kiely i taught his performance in the 1a cup final last year was the worst id seen,but he surpassed himself last night.

well he was diabolical in that final so he must have ruined yer game last night

[passandmove]

If morgan had clobbered alan barry in the same fashion you can be sure mr kiely would have blown.

Interesting to see there hasn't been one mention of John Tierney been kicked around the field for 90 mins,he was scythed down 3 or 4 times from behind by crude challenges,but then again that's football,you win some you lose some,barry Dillon must be some man to play on for 60 or 70 mins with 5 cracked ribs,but then again so did Tierney after getting treatment 3 or 4 times.

[passandmove]

It happened on the stroke of half time,he lasted 30 mins into second half when he fell awkwardly again,so where your getting 60 or 70 mins is beyond me,just after talking to him and he spent the night in hospital.as for john tierney our apologies for not asking our lads to let him float around the pitch and do what he wants.

So maybe it happened him when he fell awkwardly????.couldnt see anyone playing with 5 cracked ribs,would you??.and about jt,tackling is one thing but constantly hacking him down is another,agree about the ref,yere no 6 should have been sent for constantly fouling him AFTER he received a yellow for cowardly taking him down from behind,(mulcahy),or do you not remember that??

Oh and by the way speedy recovery to barry,hope he's ok.

[passandmove]

Maybe boywonder id say it was an accumalation of knocks he took,as u say lets hope he makes a speedy recovery.Anyway lad we at wembley have big admiration for ye as a side so we dont want a war of words to erupt,best of luck for the remainder of the campaign,looking foward to yer clash with boro already!

I doubt it cause ye are out of everything,at least pike are still at the business end,remind me again before ye beat an 8 man pike team the last time ye beat them,your tears are well dried up then aren't they,ha.i forgot you had 3 fai's.silly me.

think it was nine (one sent off after game) against ten.
and beating pike or beatinf fairview does not win you trophies.
lastly think your mixing me up with someone else

would i be right deck the halls

Don't think so bud,might see you in Thomond Park tonight,we'll have a pint.

[lawman]

Lads it happens refs are poor all round remember john mc last year when pike played fairview in the league up in the pike club.its all swings and roundabouts as they say.ps if anyone knows kiely his never gives any teams pens.

I see Fairview have same ref as last week again on Sunday. No nonsense taken there. havent seen him before last week but he was grand. he promoted from lower divisions or what?

[Jofspring]

A.Buttimer??

He hasn't been in the lower leagues anyway. Is he a small lad? If so then it could be Anthony Buttimer the League Of Ireland ref. Come to think of it I haven't seen Anthony Buttimer down to ref a League Of Ireland game this season. Let's just say he is an ok ref but certainly one of the most controversial in League of Ireland. He has been involved in some crazy decisions. On a few occassions he has held the start of games up for half an hour because he didn't want two teams having the same colour sleeves.

That couldnt be him. just finished reading the papers and buttimer was reffin ucd and monaghan last night. might have a look and see if i can find out.

Would be strange if it was him alright as he has been doing LOI for a good while now.

He has reffed a few games already here in limerick,heard he had a stinker in game against caherconlish and charleville.

Yes it is Anthony Buttimer. He is, generally, a LOI ref. Reffed Drogheda v Shamrock Rvs a few weeks ago. He reffed View v Wembley game fairly well last week, incl a good offside call against Wembley where attacking player was behind goalkeeper with View player on the line. He doesn't take backchat and gets around the pitch well like a ref should.

As promised I checked around. Had a few pints with a league official (well I was in his vicinity while he was havin a few) and heard that he has had a few games alrite. Had a few red cards too but seems they are for red card stuff that you see at top games like champions league etc. no silly stuff, and tries to talk fellas into behavin. that sounds like what i saw at the fairview game wher he took on the wembley line who were trying to bully the view and him.
anyway will report back again if the kids want to see a game. i will probably go up to boro. thats if the wife dont bring me to tesco.

Boro 3 view 2

A goal 3mins into injury time for boro.

boro behind twice. a cracker of a game. well worth the 7 euro i paid in.(had my kids and their friends) worthy of a cup final athmosphere. view had a man sent off for 2 yellows. second one he made contact alright but would have been worse only that boro player saw it comming, so i agree that it was yellow. think the boro fitness got them through. as for the ref, i stopped playing cos father time caught up with me but that fella is older than me. not a pick on him but my god was he fit. left it flow and only got involved when he had to. added to it for me anyway. wish he was reffin when i played cos maybe i wouldnt have had all them injuries then. best ive seen in my time anyway.
as for the club house, thank god again cos i had some lip on me with the heat. and to top it off the wife collected the kids. happy days :p

That was Buttimer! He was excellent alright. Way ahead of the usual standard.

Boro were surprisingly poor today. Missed Colbert in particular, as Aidan Hurley was very poor at centre back, allowing Christy Doyle to exploit the space in behind him time and time again.

Fairview did very well with a makeshift side. Young Conor McCormack impressed at right full, as did Fitzgerald at centre back and the goalscorer Doyle. Major credit goes to Jonathan Grant though, who was magnificent in midfield. Ran the show.

[lawman]

Surely they didnt charge for kids,
when you go to see a game and theres a box to put cash in, you dont just pay for yourself. the box is for donations to help a club meet their running costs so you put in what you can afford. I had 7 euro in coins. n
value for money i thought.

So you give €7 to every club fair play to you,those clubs who haven't bars to help with the running costs really appreciate that I'd say.

dont know if youre being sarcastic or what, but had 5 children and myself at a game for approx 2 hours. 7 euro seemed more than fair to me. with my 3 pints and watching a great game costing me 20 euro all in i cant complain. left home at 10am and back at 1.45pm. cheap morning out. wife spent almost 200 in tesco though while i was at the game:(. what harm though, she got a bottle of wine for me. LOL

[Hollywood Hogan]

Boywonder what is the issue, worrying what a person is contributing at the gate. He give 7 euro for him and a few kids for what he called great entertainment. A cheap couple hours if u ask me. As for the bar trade it's not what it was!!!

didnt look a bad tackle from where i was, kinda caught him on the follow through. as u said best regards to the two lads, sounds very nasty:ball:

[tedd11]

Corbally 0-1pike. We deserved a point out of this game today.very good display by us considering we were missing 5.the lads battled til the end and we should of got a penalty in the last minute but the ref didn't give it.ah well,onto the boro Thursday night for us
