Duster you seem to know an awful lot about Garryduff?? were or are you involved with them???

No never involved with them, but I know some lads that were. I have contact with one of the players still there. Hence I get all the up to date news and confirm my info.

Thank god that rubbish with the paying players is put to bed. Clubs can barely make enough to survive not alone pay their players...

So any transfers???? Only thing in Avondale is that Andrew Goulding has re-signed from Garryduff. Was with us at the start of the season but left, as far as i know he had to leave Garryduff and had no option but to return to Avondale due to the 2 clubs in one season rule.

Its against the rules of Msl to poach players who are signed with other clubs - preseason is fine but you cannot approach a player midseason. No doubt it goes on but under league rules a player must look for the transfer.

Rules are rules my friend doesnt mean everyone plays by them. It goes on wholesale and in my opinon every club is guilty of it at some stage in a season.

I agree that every club does it but it doesn't make it right.

Avondale wouldn't be as good, fact.

For me personally, I would prefere to see a team of blackrock/ballintemple based players, players from these areas might be more willing to contribute more to the club if the majority of the players were from the area..

But then Avondale could become a mediocre team like Ringmahon.

At least they play players from their own locality and don't trawl the city and county like Avondale to creat the Avonadale All Stars. Avondale are without doubt the master poachers.

First of All shinguard i was taking the mickey, i was having a pop off Ringmahon 4 ever because he had a pop off Avondale, just a little bit of banter. Second of all I would personally prefere Avondale to be more like a 'Club' like Ringmahon. Thirdly Avondale would survive despite Ringmahon 4 Ever doubting this. Fourtly its tough for Avondale to keep on to players from their locality when their pitch is in Carrigaline and this is no fault of their own, they just dont have the funds to move back to its origin. If they had a pitch in their own locality then i'm sure Avondale would have a very strong team based soley on local players. They are more or less forced to ask players from other areas of cork to play for them.

Its grand for the likes of Douglas Hall, Ringmahon, Mayfield etc to build a team on home based players as their pitches are local. Most of Avondales schoolboys will pick Gaelic, Hurling or Rugby over Football when reach Youth level due to the clubs being in close proximity to their homes.

Would you agree shinguard?

Ya Bodie. 2nd division will be very tight. Anyone of 4 teams could win it. Obviously promotion was our aim at the start of the season but we will be looking to win it after our good start. Were extremely solid at the back conceding 3 goals in 9 league games but on the other hand were not scoring many 14 goals either. Our problem all season is not punishing teams after going in front and then putting ourselves under pressure by being only a goal up......

Ballincolig 1-3 Avondale Utd on saturday afternoon
Dale were 1up and seemingly coasting but could not get a 2nd
Then an awful mistake at the back allowed the Collig in for an equaliser.
Collig looked to be heading for their first point of the season but Dale wore them down and scored twice n the last 10 minutes.

Blarney United 0-3 UCC. UCC fully deserved their win and also had the luxury of missing a penalty. They were 2 up at the interval and coasted through the rest of the game, scoring a third goal with 15 minutes remaining.

Ya its true There saying we used someone who wasnt at the match so in other words an illegal player. As if we would i mean come on like 12 kick off on a sunday afternoon 1st against 2nd. Why on earth would we do something so stupid. 2 Senior league officals at the match and we also knew the Echo were coming out. It did say on the echo a player was used but he didnt come on but he was togged out and there saying he was not even there, There clutching at straws cause ther out of the title run..........

Avondale Utd 0-0 Blarney UtdThis was probably one of the worst games played in Avondale Park for a long time. Blarney's goalkeeper was not the regular keeper but a GAA keeper and he injured himself after ten minutes. Yet he didn't have a single shot to save all afternoon. At least 4 of the Blarney team badly need some training. The Blarney team looked unfit anyway. They seemed to be happy with a point. Where is the ambition gone ? If either of these teams think that are going to catch Rockmount they better think again because on this performance Rockmount will be winning the league for the next 10 years.

I see Garryduff beat CIT last week 2-1, this fixture was originally called off because Garryduuff couldn't field a team. Lakewood weren't afforded the same luxury by the MSL as Garryduff. Garryduffs fairy godfather within the MSL strikes again.

Obviously Ballincollig are having big trouble fielding a team as are their neighbours Lakewood. Maybe the League should give them a break like they did recently for Garryduff and let them try & get their house in order.

The league should scrap the 23 player rule. I wouldnt be surprised if this is affecting Ballincollig. Possibly they filled up their Quota at the start of the season and now maybe some of these players left due to the teams poor displays in the league. If the league scrap the 23 player rule, then ballincollig could sign a few players just so they can fulfill their fixtures until the end of the season.

I think its one of the silliest rules the MSL have introduced and there have been quiet a few!

Thats the players problem and not the leagues. Other teams and clubs are suffering due to this. You cant just scratch a player off if he packs it in. He has to either imigrate or get a transfer to another club.
