Munster Senior League

[El Patron]

Went to the Everton Rockmount game. It was as one sided as you will see. Everton are in deep trouble and will do well to stay up.

[toffeeman]

Everton so poor this morning it was painful to watch. Always used to give rockmount tough hard but clean games but rolled over this morning like a puppy. Looks like terry Connolly got out just in time. No wonder Sean cotter and Pearce Celtic manager didn't take over

[corkie]

Looks to me that Ucc and Avondale will fight it out for the league . With the players Everton have lost and the youngsters coming in and change of management there in trouble they don't seem to have the fire power up front. Haven't scored in last few games an backline seems to be leaking goals.

[FootballMad]

From what i seen today the left back didnt want to be there and everton manager took him off when they were 3 down and centre half didnt come back out in second half either.it looked like to me is everton practicully started wit 9 men that wanted to play and no matter wat team you are if you dont have people committed in the top leagues you will get found out and those players did today.. Plenty of matches left and i think that everton will turn there last few weeks around!

[R75215]

Can anyone tell me who got the rockmount goals today please? Few junior players playing I hear

Big big trouble they are in let's not be silly here!! Playing junior players at senior level when fighting to stay up is a silly mistake!! This has being coming for a long while!!

Was there today I missed the first 10 minutes by that stage mount were 2up.
Great penalty save from Brendan rather then a bad penalty which could have been a game changer if it went in.
Penalty down the opposite end then game over.
I hope Everton stay up been honest it just looks like there lacking confidence and being a young team it's a major thing.

[Glenbuck]

Can anyone tell me who got the rockmount goals today please? Few junior players playing I hear Gearoid, Aaron Twohig and Aido Fitz from the penalty spot.

[R75215]

Gearoid, Aaron Twohig and Aido Fitz from the penalty spot.

Don't know Aaron at all I don't think. Cheers lad.

How did game go? What way do Cors look? They have Been quiet since their keane cup victory. Are they relegation contenders?

They beat Avondale away last week, have the Keane Cup in the bag, semi final of Donie Forde Cup and all of a sudden people are questioning if they are relegation contenders. Absolutely not even do they will be disappointed to have lost 3 of their first 4 league game ( 1 v mount and 1 v Ucc) which are tough games.
I'd expect them to shoot up the league when they have a few more league games under their belt. Expect a top 4 finish behind 1 Avondale 2 Ucc and 3 Rockmount.

tramore 1-0 carrigaline, lackluster display from carrigaline, duly punished by hard working tramore side

Forget the cups, the league is where it's at. Wins are hard to come by in the Premier League and a bad start can be hard to claw back. They are too good to be there but the likes of Midleton, Everton, Bandon etc all have their heads ready for a long hard battle. They will target games with Corinthians like cup finals to keep them involved in the scrap...

Do you mean everton signed junior players to play senior or what? Because from what I saw today it was the junior players that came in today once called upon held things together, otherwise it could have been embarrassing for Everton.

That's what I mean calling upon the clubs junior sides to help them out is a bit silly?? None of them are a great junior side to be fair... I hope Everton stay up some good people up there that love that club but personally I can see them going down I'm afraid!!

[Chiefscout]

Rockmounts team was mostly youths and juniors today aswel but didn't stop them handing out a beating to a poor Everton team

Silly but unavoidable I'd say 3rdeye. Damage limitation time. Senior football a priority now I would imagine

Defo I agree let's be honest Everton are big senior team in cork football and don't deserve to be where they are!! I just can't understand how they find themselves in this position to be honest!!

Victims of there own success from there intermediate cup run 2 years ago I would think. Avondale got Roy rockmount got willie Chris and terry four big players to lose.

Roy long is a huge loss to them to be fair terry and willie are past premier at this stage ! Willie one of the best around in his prime though great servant in senior football that fella.

I'd say there's a few senior teams wouldn't turn them 2 down.
Roy huge loss Shane went to mayfield aswell don horan retiring aswell John des also playing junior

Not premier teams though!! Everton just going through a rebuilding process I think least they have the resources in place with schoolboy and junior teams !! They might go down but will be back up again

[razor]

Any score frrom Ucc game ?
MSL website says Cors 1-2 UCC

[tricksey]

I'd say there experience would be appreciated by some premier teams.
As ex Everton I hope they stay up but it is a rebuilding job

[toffeeman]

Think that inter cup run was 18 months ago and not one of those players playing for Everton this morning. Let's be honest here anyone involved with Everton knows that one person has messed up that club! Looking at the people on the line this morning the club is going were it wants!!!

[Glenbuck]

Brendan monty gazza Gearoid Blakey keane aido dineen that's 8 starters ? Which of them are youths and juniors? Danny Leahy with seniors since start of season. Colin O Sullivan jnr and Aaron Tuohy u17 player.

[Glenbuck]

Can anyone tell me who got the rockmount goals today please? Few junior players playing I hear One jnr player

[Glenbuck]

Rockmounts team was mostly youths and juniors today aswel but didn't stop them handing out a beating to a poor Everton team More rubbish from you....1 jnr and 1 under 17 played.

Forget the cups, are u for real? With Avondale winning the league every year what else has everyone else to play for. Everyone else might as well stay at home. Ok the league is the big one but who would turn down a cup. A good cup run can keep a team alive if their league form is poor. I'm sure Billy Cronin at Rockmount would love a cup with his current squad when he see's how strong Avondale are, who wouldn't. Corinthians are a superior outfit to the teams you have mentioned and will go up the table of that I'm sure. Lets not forget prior to this defeat against an excellent UCC team that beat Everton 7-0 and Midleton 0-4 away Corinthians beat Rockmount and Avondale back to back.

[El Patron]

I also think it's unfair the way some teams had played 7 and 8 games more than Corinthians in the league, surely this can't be right. I know they were involved in the FAI Cup and this may have caused a fixture back log but it looks terrible when one team has only played 1 league game come Christmas and almost everyone else has played 8 or 9.

Lets be honest Corinthians beating avondale was a flash in the pan and losing 3 out of 4 is a terrible start,bang average side!

I was going on 2nd hand info and stand corrected.you hardly think me or anybody interested in football would be at that game and not watching cors v ucc

What a ridiculous statement. Just because there the current top teams don't mean people interested in soccer wouldn't be at other games. GET A LIFE. Your pal / 2nd hand info must have no interest in football either to say he was at it. Must be a good source lol.

Is that the lad from Everton? Great signing. Find it strange that the other lad dunphy went to Everton when there clearly not improving. And Pearse players were surely enjoying their football at the minute?

Ya from Everton very good player to get.i don't know the situation on the other two questions.

[littleman]

Tricksy I'm a norrie out an out so forgive me for askin but I don't know so I wanted to ask. The movement of players between Everton/ Pearse/
Dunbar / kilreen/ Greenwood and Casement . Dose it not cause animosity between the clubs being so near to each other . Or is it just a given that these things happen during a season .

Realisticly most of the Msl clubs are based on the SouthSide so it might just be the norm to bounce from club to club an eyebrows arnt raised . Is this the case .

No worries it's just handy for fellas there's so many good clubs around here that for whatever reason your leaving your current club you don't have to go to far.it doesn't cause much I'd say the odd few words I suppose haha but we all know each other and it wouldn't get over heated.most fellas in the clubs you named probably started with Everton but you can't hold onto everyone or when you reach 17/18 fellas head to city Cobh or other senior clubs that's my 2 pence anyway littleman if that helps ?

Good move for the kid I reckon. I never thought he was a Premier player maybe that was because he was put in to the Senior League to early. With his Father after stepping down I think it made his decision a lot easier to step down a few leagues.

[littleman]

Thanks tricksey . Appriciate the feedback .

To be fair that's just like asking us what it's like up here little man!! Same goes on and with a few clubs up here there is hate between the 2 clubs involved if they leave!! Rockmount Mary's castleview temple Leeds mayfield are just a few senior teams but junior is a different ball game way to many junior clubs in northside in my eyes!! Players aren't moving for footballing reasons anymore either (not all there is still a few genuine fellas ) Me personally with my old club I'd prefer to have fellas who are there for football and it shows they want to be there!!

The lad is only a kid. Has potential. Under a good coach he could have become a good player. I'm not sure he will get that at casement, especially when Willie Byrne works a lot.

Haven't seen much of this fella to be honest but what I have seen of him is he's lively out! A bit light and off the pace for senior premier!! 2nd division will suit him not a great standard but will make him stronger it's a bit more physical not much ball in that league! Willie Byrne would make him a better player with his experience I didn't know he works a lot though so that could stop the young fella improving! The lad seems a nice young fella from the little times I've seen him so hope it works out for him and casement!
