they ****ed up the avenue bridge celtic game. it never went to 2 all avenue went 3-1 up and bridge scored in the last minute. i heard from a great source that when the gaa is fading it will get even better coverage. about bloody time to. maybe each club should send the clare people soccer section to the clare champion. give them a much needed kick in the arse. a reporter from each paper was out in lees road getting team selections. one stayed and looked at both games (avenue v bridge and cratloe v lifford) didn't see the other one for long.

they are building there own dressing room and pitch facilities costing 400000, grants covering a great portion of that, so for the sake of a year paying 15,000 plus out to lees road dosen't make sense. i know there paying there trainer/ manager kennedy. heard that from a few reliable sources. i think playing one player over another is asking for problems. why him and not heath r iggey etc. he must have been on holidays with his training allowance as i didn't notice him against avenue. 
newtown are the ones to watch this year. i think they will be there abouts for all five comps this year.

Im only going by what i heard yesterday at our match...was talking to the cratloe managers son and he told me!
So whats up with bunratty this year then?we played poor yesterday and still won 2-0...not sure if we were playing there A or B team!Heard they were having problems before the game and a few players walked out...so there might be a bit of trouble in the bunratty camp.Is davey hogan not playing this year or was he one that walked out?

Bad idea paying people money to play, just makes the other players jealous and gives the player being paid a big head. Also right back isn't exactly the most influential position on the pitch. Waste of money.

believe it or not because the Clare League is not an amateur league they have no say in the matter.The constitution of the league would have to be changed to state it and all its clubs would have to be amateur
Players were getting paid in the Clare league for along time before our freind arrived.I recently heard about a player turning down fifty Euro a game for a once off signing on fee.For legal reasons and tax implications this person will remain nameless. Clubs in Clare are pulling in nice money on membership draws and lotteries , there is money to be given and if your good enough I say fair play and take it.

Who in their right mind would raise money to pay players of the standard in the Clare League??Which Clubs " on membership draws and lotteries."are pulling in nice money??Id like to know to ask them how to do it??Who was paid money in the past??Or at least which clubs were paying,if you cant say which players for fear they would have to become tax exiles.??

We had a bit of luck on our side to be honest but I think we deserved it.  :D Battled hard and worked well and had some good performers.
Avenue will feel hard done by as they had a good few chances... I suppose they have to be taken though.
Still its only 3 points from 4 games though.
Any one got a brief report on the Lifford win. They seem to be doing well. Were Newtown ahead at any stage... late goals or anything to report.

Lifford win...
Newtown can feel disappointed at throwing away the lead twice in the game.
Lifford started better but newtown got the opener.. heath went for a trip outside the box ball was robbed and quigley passed into empty net.. 10 mins later lifford got equaliser after some good pressure keeper made good save from robbie carkhill but was only able to parry and martin mcdonough brought his tally to 4 for the season. newtown went back in front shortly afterwards. winger kelly somehow beat 3 lifford defenders while sitting on the ground and excellent finish to restore lead.HT 2-1
lifford made 2 subs early in 2nd half... but newtown were holding firm but a speculative shot with 10mins left found the net from damien quirke. The same player got the winner a couple of mins later after town failed to clear a corner ball came back into box quirke swung a leg and it found the top corner , keeper no chance.....
Lifford just about deserved victory.. they did :ball: nt play well but id say jim rox was fuming as his side lost the lead twice and also they ran out of steam in the last ten.

31/08/2005, 12:13 PM
Newtown were well on top for at least 80 minutes...we went ahead twice...handed them two goals!! We missed our sweeper badly....
Theres no way anyone watching that game could say lifford deserved all three points...Not a hope!
There first goal was a mistake by our keeper and the Referee!(player was AT LEAST 10yrds offside)
There second was handed to them on a plate...defender tryed to play it back to the keeper...with his head AND leg at the same time!!
There third was good tho...no complaints!
I would of honestly been disappointed leaving that game with a point let alone none!!
Seen manjr down there too...what was the story there then?Why wasnt he playing?That cant be money well spent then ey?

 yes rats deserved win. 2 chances took one. avenue, well dont get me started. they think there better than they are. thought it was onl;y a matter of turning up. before game were saying how was no 5(pa hayes) going to run) what those **** flaps didn't know that on half a leg pa hayes would have more determination and heart than 4 r 5 avenue boys together (plus the fact he knows how to read a game). we didn't put 5 passes together, rats even though its far away from there best side played as a team and when newtown beat avenue on sunday there league will be over. if they think they will do what they did last year and win the last 10 games on that attitude and performance forget it. 
great to see the boss back. had you extended holidays since avenue stole the crown from ye. oh ye never had it in the first place, sorry boss. actually just post up your name and address and i tell you what i'll do for the glory of man kind and to put us (and you) out of our misery i'll send the league cup onto you and you can present it to the future league champions.

If that was Liffords full team against Newtown, ye'll win nothing. Newtown were missing 4 starters, played terrible in the second half & still should have won. Lifford are too lightweight & will drop plenty of points.
