Cork AUL 2012/13

[six-yard-box]

to kind horse lol :cool: all about the players .nice plus for me is 4 of the team i managed in aul squad im glad for barry and babyzico no2.
shouldnt he be called babyrossi haha

[Kearney]

in his first spell with them he won an aoh and beaten in another final i think. i played against kilumney back in maybe 05/06 with alberts in the first division and they were poor. pretty sure it was the season they got relegated. my point wasnt about the actual club. its about the quality of the squad they had playing in those leagues once they got all the boys from ballincollig there was only one place they were going.

So what do you think happened? A quality squad was assembled overnight? That's not they way it happened at all. The year they won league 1 came straight after they nearly got relegated. He came in and kept them up. Innishvilla actually went down. Was between the two of them. Its hard to get players to play at that level as well. That's why its a success story. Yes they moved up the divisions but it wasn't just a stroll like you said. Won league 1 by a point. Its hard to climb leagues and remain consistant. Wilton done it a few years ago, Grattan as well. Wilton won premier with a squad of 12 players. Quality players at that but its extremely difficult. Park won premier and got to final of aoh. They look like a shadow of themselves this year in the games I have watched. Staying at the top is the hardest thing to do. The league is the carrot. Whoever wins it this year will deserve it.

[Leftside]

Shouldn't really get dragged into this with you cause you're obviously the Hubba that hasn't a clue about football and just log in to stir stuff. I can say I've seen William play many times this year and he's a class act. He's skilful, a team player, fast, hard working and honest. He'll give the AUL panel 110% in every session and game, he's not a primadona and can turn a game in a heartbeat. Fresh blood into the panel is a good thing and I think William will surprise a few people tomorrow night!

[1fortheTeam]

Couldnt believe it when i heard william corcoran was told go aul match saw him play 4 times 2 he was taking off after a hour and he was nowhere to be seen for other two games i think a certain personcould be in his ear about getting him on team ie john joke that is ladswater off a duck .have your pop off me not 2 young lads .you saw 2 particular games id say and he scored in both .

[Kearney]

So players keep getting call ups but yet there is no room for a proven aul player in Robbie Walsh. Surely he deserves a call up at this stage. Scored 2 and assisted 1 when they played park so JP knows all about him. Just find it strange.

[our_ball_ref]

Always has and always will score goals in the premier league, how robbie was dropped off it forst day is beyond belief, darren was playing on the wing for the 2nd half in the last match thats ridiculous, only accomodating players, he hasnt stood out not once in all the games that were played including friendlies, Barry is a good player alright, Niall allen deserves a call up and would start given the chance, the lad spittere out of pearse was brought on to the squad started against Kerry and they pulled him off at half time again to accomodate darren.

[oldlegs]

Robbie is a legend was on panel when they won it score's on average 20 goals a season . Fit as a fiddle his a player that can turn a game one of the best players I have played with and I've been around awhile

[Leftside]

What time is kick off tonight lads?

[1fortheTeam]

What time is kick off tonight lads?8 pm looking forward to it, robbie is a nice player and i like the look of steve barry and its a chance for young lads to learn from the great players like babs and kearney joyce and nolan.

[the owl]

Lads, this rubbish talk is the very reason why this forum was shut down recently. Do we really want to go down that road again ?? If Hubba wants to come on here and slate all of our clubs, let him/them and let the guys upstairs take care of it. I really cant understand why some on here take the bait and bite back. Some guys in here need to change the record too and not just post for the sake of it. The next time we get shut down it is permenant !! Keep that in mind the next time your thinking of replying to certain posters......

[Radiostar]

What was the starting team last night?

[the owl]

1for, dont know why you think i was insinuating you........ but thanks for that in dept, detailed post.

[1fortheTeam]

one for congrats on 'winnit it all'. that aoh final/premier league/munster junior cup/fai junior cup/mossie linane year was quite a year for you and your team as you are hardly referring to winning division one trophies as 'winning it all'?:D

good result for the oscar traynor lads
lol nice one point made and taken i take it you won all 5 of the above so but i will say to you completing and competing the full 90 mins is a must.what was won not the big ones grant you when you name your ones up there but we enjoyed it .on the oscar team i must say they looked like they had a togetherness last nite some of their play was great and there were great some fab goals taken.

[1fortheTeam]

1for, dont know why you think i was insinuating you........ but thanks for that in dept, detailed post.no probs owl ok lads serious lets relax ok it will get shut down.some post being misread as in what they realy mean .i take it handy here and be a 1 post a month guy like the other few on footie they have it down to a tee slag off from one profile and look brainboxes on the other .lads thanks to you all for the private msg and support the real football guys.so i put my hands up to my little wind ups its just a bit of craic .i wont let this place cost me .

[Kearney]

an 8-0 win is always a postive result so fair play to them, many new faces play? looks like defense was not overly tested anyway which i suppose is not ideal really. Did they not play matfield earlier in the year as one of the warm up games? when is next competitive game in OT?

Think it was actually 9-0 not that it makes any difference. The match against Clare is down for the 3rd of February. I would imagine they will play stronger opposition next week as last nights game was mainly to get a touch/run around post Christmas. A good win yes but nothing can really be taken from it.

[tricksey]

Rain like this lads I'd say the weekend b dodgy

Well said I hope people listen and take notice some of us enjoy this forum, I don't always have a lot to say but I like reading match reports and people's opinions on matches I miss, so lets get more of that on here.

Few games on astro i'd say. Cork teams wont want to lose home advantage.

Alright lads my PC was broke so couldnt post for a while the season is hotting up now lads

A question to throw out there how are ye finding the refs?

I have seen two games in the past few weeks where two different refs have dictated the result and spoilt the game

Last week I watched a game where a ref booked a player 2 minutes into the game for saying that an opposition player had a high challenge he didnt even use language towards the ref.

A few minutes later the ref said to the same palyer he booked that he will send him off and personally see that he gets banned for a couple of weeks.

5 minutes into the second half the player beat 2 defenders and burst into the box he was brought down from behind the ref said play on the player said thats a joke he didnt use language and he didnt aim it at the ref he was sent off. The palyer couldnt even stand he had a bruise from his shin right up to his knee and the ref refused the line to come on and give him treatment.

Now lads it was a good game from 2 good honest teams and this spoilt the whole game the sad thing is teams are relutant to report refs as they feel they are targeted afterwards.

[tricksey]

I think in most cases its sour grapes when players and managers give out bout refs being honest, just a few weeks ago there when Killumney supposedly got robbed everyone one was on bout how cork refs with give cork teams nothing at home and the dublin refs would give the dubs everything well after playing up there last week the ref we had was one the best refs we had all year and very fair too no complaint.I wouldnt think its not an easy job too to be fair.

The standard is poor and will continue to be so while clubs are not involved in the process. Refs judge refs, leagues give awards to refs - the only people who get no say are the people who see them every week and pay them.

In what other facet of life are you not judged by your paymasters? In what other facet of life is a system not judged by its users?

Good refs are buried because of politics, and poor refs shoot up the ladder because the clubs who see them week in and week out are not asked their opinions.

We had an incident where a referees report recently led to a longer suspension than is warranted. This is the 3rd time this official has sent in a report, where the first two have been PROVEN to be exaggerated.

Why should he change? He is actually advancing, though he continues to make the same mistake again and again. No-one in the referring world knows he is wrong because we have no way of telling them.

No way of telling the good or the bad. It will continue like this because the same system will continue.

An old saying - If you keep doing the same thing, how can you expect a different outcome?

The only hope I see is when they come looking for more money - that will provide us with an opportunity to negotiate some sort of comeback for our money like every other facet of the world.

Why bother saying “supposesly" tricks? You implying they weren't robbed even though you weren't there. If you were with any decent club when you were underage and travelled the country you would say that you got rode when you played away and rode at home. Cork Refs always have and always will go against Cork teams. That is a fact. Ye might have had a decent ref last weekend. If so fair play but that isn't usually the norm.

Totally agree horse. We should be able to review and critique the refs. The clubs are paying them. Instead of being demoted in cork for being horrendous the aul and msl promote them. Its comedy and makes a joke of the leagues. Could count on 1 hand the number of good referees in both Associations.

[oldlegs]

So far this year no compliants about any refs we've had . Few new refs but all have been good and I find most you can talk to and will explain why they give a free etc aslong as you don't be up in there faces if you respect the ref he'll respect you

[tricksey]

I said supposedly because I wasnt there donnie how can I say for sure when I wasnt there??? Donnie you gets very defensive for a neutral bud all I did was brought up the last example relax and as a matter a fact I was with a half decent team played outside of cork countless of times and even a national cup final.

You get very defensive yourself tricks. I know you played with a team that got out of cork. Read my post again. Refs have always done cork teams. You should know that better than anyone. Its not what you say but its the way you say it. I'm passionate. Just want to see cork teams do well. Also would want to inform your buddy that Darren lynch only got the 1 goal. Not 3. Don't know what game he was at :-)
