Yes apparently we have signed the lad Kinger from Ramblers, along with Blake and Butt from Castleview. Also Steph Hurley has re signed.

The bad news I had last week is that Alan Weldon is going back to play with his buddies at Blarney. I'm gutted as he's a class act on and off the pitch and I'll miss watching him on a reg basis.

Good luck Al, pleasure knowing you and to all the lads coming in and returning best of luck.

steph hurley is back pre season training with mayfield i was talking to him the other day he said he wanted to go back to rockmount but feared he might not get in the team and if he was sitting on the bench for 2 long he would have packed up playing.he also told me about alan weldon going 2 blarney

Fair play to Steph, game time is better at this stage as he loves being involved. Cracking bloke and I wish him all the best as usual if he has decided that way.

whoops! my bad. apologies.
ya heard steph is staying at mayfield, who have appointed dave hill as gaffer, if anything they will be fit and well drilled this year and should be in contention also! besides that, not hearing much about any clubs just yet, i suppose you won't know who's where until the season kicks off, looking forward to it already.

Hi lads, I used always follow UCC and their matches but moved away around a year ago but Iam back now, was just woundering where the following players are playing now or are they even playing??? Always thought they were excellent players,

Peter Cuthbert - Goalkeeper
Brendan O Connell - Goalkeeper

Owen Costine - Center Half
Alan ryan - Center Half
Paul O Brien - Center Half

Shane Hennessey
Gramham Wilshaw

As far as I know all were internationals at university standard, where are they now. Any info would be appreciated

ball-hop

19/08/2008, 3:21 PM

Brendan O'Connell is with Avondale; Graham Wilshaw was with Rockmount last season - still there Cliff?
Can't help on any of the others...

Clifford

20/08/2008, 3:47 PM

Wilshaw was with Mount last season, injured for most of it, cracking player was a big loss. Hope he get's it right this season.

Yer man Shane Henessey (Wanchope?) if it is the same lad had a good season with us two seasons ago, but not sure where he is now.

Allstar

20/08/2008, 6:01 PM

Cuthbert's with midleton and o connell and o brien are with avondale

Spiderpig

21/08/2008, 7:48 AM

Cheers lads, ya cliff thats the fella, lunatic but outstanding player, found out too Costine and Ryan are in Dublin, O Brien was in america but came back half way through the season and joined avondale but I found out that he has now gone and is playing in scotland, and Cuthbert doesnt have a club, honestly he is an outstanding player, great adddition to any team looking for a keeper, when hes fit one of the best in the league honestly.

Who do people think for the league??? Rockmount, Avondale, Hall??????

minty

21/08/2008, 1:34 PM

O'Brien playing in Scotland??that's hilarious,he wasnt even making the Avondale squad last season when they were picking 20 man squads for cup games in Dublin etc and supposedly they only had 21 at training.
Wilshaw is a top player alright and Cuthbert and O'Connell are both outstanding keepers.
As far as being internationals....they all were except for O'Brien as far as i know

Spiderpig

21/08/2008, 1:52 PM

must be gone by the way side so like most players. Looking foreard to season starting, alot of quality around this year. Looking forward to seeing blarney, reckon they could be pushing for a cup. Not strong enough for the league yet or to challenge for it but reckon they could get a good cup run or even get one of the local cups. Would be nice for them, good decent club

minty

21/08/2008, 3:21 PM

Ya they're not a bad club...Ray O'Leary is a great talent!
I think Paul O'Brien has a nick-name, "Scobes" I think they call him...was never really that good and never even got a trial for the Irish University squad!We played UCC in his last year with them and he was only a sub...he got 10 mins at the end when the game was over at right back.Saw "Scobes" playing a few junior games with UCC and he was good enough at that level.

Lost one player, up to the A-league with the ramblers, could be a tough year for us as we had the smallest squad in the division last year the fact that the ramblers have a team in the A-league has stopped a lot of good young players joining us as they see that league as a more attractive option than playing in the msl premier:confused:

minty

22/08/2008, 8:38 AM

Don't worry about it spider pig but i actually think you have the right guy alright...i told the lads at training last night and they had a good chuckle about it...he's well known for being a poor player,supposedly never misses a training in fairness though!I saw him score 2 og's against us one day and 1 was a lob from around the half way line!

mayfield season started last night and we couldn't have got off to a worst start hammered 4-0 at home to st marys schoolboy denfending for all 4 goals they had 4 free headers inside our box with no mayfield player within 10 yards of the goalscorers besides that the whole team was poor with little to no shoots on goal and to make things worst marys r not even a good team bring on rockmount thursday night cos we can't do any worst than that display

26/08/2008, 7:47 AM

Ok chaps, time for your predictions for this season who will win the prem who will be relegated, promoted from the 1st. heres how i see it.
1st rockmount 2nd douglas hall 3rd avondale 4th st. marys 5th blarney 6th ballincollig 7th everton 8th castleview 9th ucc 10th cobh wanderers.

don't really know anything about ucc its too early yet but their time has to be up soon and i reckon it could be this year. wanderers were just about a one man show last year and hes gone from what people are saying so they will be too, probably without a win all season. douglas will push hard this year strong all round squad.

1st division to premier will be ringmahon and midleton with mayfield and leeds running them close, but its 2nd division for passage and tramore.

glasheen and templemount will come up from the 2nd with youghal hot on their heels and who knows what cit could be this year.

cups. donie forde-douglas hall. keane cup-everton.

no cork team for the fai this year sorry boys l.s.l strong again this year.

bet i wont be too far out what do the opposition have too say.

We are keeping quiet about our chances as is the Blarney way, could be in there or abouts, personally i think we need 2 more players to challenge strongly for the league, don't rule out a good cup run though.

How did Wanderers do in pre-season matches and the opening Keane cup match.

I'm not sure how the senior team are doing, afaik............not very good!

But the Wanderers Junior Team won the pre-season Barry Wall cup and lost 4-3 vs Avondale in their equivalent of the Keane Cup.

28/08/2008, 8:01 AM

Relagation looms large for both teams from the island town i think. Just thought you were on about Ramblers with the crest you have on display. How did Wanderers do in pre-season matches and the opening Keane cup match.

Beat Ballinhassig 1-0 away on Sunday morning in Keane Cup, playing Corinthians tonight where another win(hopefully) will se us through to the 1/4 finals on Keane Cup.
Pre-season played in a tournament run by Midleton.
Lost to Ballincollig 3-2, and Midleton 3-0 . . . had a descimated squad,goalkeeper had work commitments and some players on hols!. Wouldnt look too much into that!.

Will be a tough Season for Wanderer's (second season syndrome), butI think ur getting ahead of yourself tipping them to get relegated!!!. Also saying they wont win a game is very harsh for a team that finished 5th last seaon. (alot of teams dont like coming down to cobh to play)

gee wizz

28/08/2008, 9:14 AM

As with every team in the league, the wanderers will have to take every game as it comes there are no easy games in the msl premier divison that is why the msl teams have done so well in the intermediate cup throughout the years

villager

28/08/2008, 2:26 PM

Shouldn't of said they would not win a game did not mean to be insulting. Good they got the season proper off with a win, but didn't Cobh have a good record in that Midleton tournament i was there last season when we lost on penalties to them (should of won that one)and i think they were playing Midleton or Mallow in the final to win the 3 in a row. From what i heard the team is not as strong as then and they were only ok to be fair. (ONLY MY OPINION SO DON'T GO KILLING ME). Ballinhassig was no test to be fair, Corinthians should be a better indication of how things are going. Best of luck post the result up after the match so i can eat more of my words:o

Rockmount beat Mayfield last night 3-0. Didn't get to it, but think Beech and Ross got on the scoresheet.

Bad news emerging though is that Slatts has an injury keeping him out for a few months. Not sure about it at the moment, but will keep posted.

Mallow beat Bandon 9-0 last night to qualify for the Keane Cup quarter finals.A bit one sided to say the least. TBF, it was tough on Bandon having to come to Mallow on a Thursady eve for a 7 o'clock ko & they looked as if they struggled to put out a team.

mayfield left in 3 soft goals again against mount played them off the park for 45 minutes only to go in 2 down soul destroying for the lads mount r not as good as they use 2 b there weak in midfield no ball winners in midfield since doyler and steph left there good enough on ball i think mount could finish outside the top 2 this season for the 1st time in a long time:

I hear Aidan O' Mahony has joined from Corinthians. He's a quality player on his day and would the ball winner/hard worker.
I heard Jammer & Beechinor only came on at half time & they were missing 2 other first 11 players.
I wouldn't write them off just yet. Same goes for Avondale after their loss to Ringmahon.
The top teams seem the only use the Keane cup to try things out.

Regarding Mayfield, watched em against Marys. Quite poor in fact shocking!!! & from what I hear about Thursdays game Mayfield controlled the 1st half(by far) but still could of been 4 down. Rockmount then brought on Jammer & Beechinor & should of won by 5 or 6
The played the best football a couple of seasons ago in the Prem but still got relegated.

I'd tip Marys to go through from the Group

ya against marys there were really poor in fact ur been a bit kind in saying they were shocking they never showed up that day. Aidan O' Mahony is a great player on his day didn't know he was after signing mayfield always had a problem with a goalie and denfence for as long as i remember i can't remember them having a good goalie and denfence hopefully dave hill can at lease sort out there denfence and the lads pick up a good goalie

M.S.L website is gone poor again very slow putting ip the results after games. How did Keane cup groups finish up are many premier teams left? I see Cobh got turned over at home to Corinthians as i predicted, did Ringmahon knock out the mighty Avondale, another tip of mine for promotion to the premier. Did Carrigaline progress out of the softest group i hope they didnt leave me down. Did someone try to say Mayfield will be good this season because they have Dave Hill....they could have him, Sven, Trappatoni,Ferguson and Scolari and they'd still be awful...loyalty is one thing but don't be blinded my friend. Ballincollig v Douglas Hall how'd that finish that one really intrests me. Come on my friends get typing.....:p

Things have not yet settled - it'll take a few weeks to see what shape the teams are in

is that derek O'Donovan aka dunna?

that was me that thought mayfield would do well this year with the addition of dave hill as manager! haven't seen them play yet but from what i hear there **** poor! is this true?

i wouldn't be judging any teams by the keane cup as lots of teams try out different things for those games!
