[Silly Billy G]

By all accounts that was brought in to discourage the likes of Avondale & Rockmount from poaching the best players from around Cork & leaving them sitting in the reserves!

Rockmount had 9 subs v ballincollig so obviously thats worked a treat !

I agree that the rule should be scrapped it was just a tongue in cheek reply to AvondaleNutter :) In fairness if a player moves to these clubs and doesn't play they have a 2 month window to move in December - if they don't move they can't complain.

yesterdays scores.
St Marys 0-3 Avondale Utd
Balllincollig 0-10 Rockmount

thank your cousin again from all of us, without him we'd never have made it, what a driver.

Thankfully we had some time to spare on the way back, even got a quart in. :D

[Silly Billy G]

I wonder what effect the new cork city will have on the MSL, should be a few players more than able for that standard currently in MSL.

Good stuff, no bother at all. He was quite amused by the whole thing to be honest, but internet friends and me have been amazing him for a few years now....."so these are real people?" type of looks. Ha ha.

Glad you got home, two shots on goal whole game. I sometimes think is it worth it!

[ball-hop]

Hey, Clifford... welcome back, missed your calming presence!!

Looks like your lads have the league sewn up this season - truthfully, no-one seems to be able to get near them. I'm sure you'll be keeping us well informed about Rockmount's matches from here on....

Cheers BH, sadly (or thankfully from a money point of view) a new job has taken me from the web and a change in some personnel at the club that was of interest to me has more or less taken me away from the world of the MSL. Losing six stone in the last 24 months has allowed me get back on the park as well so any chance I get I play on Sunday morns rather than watch.

Fair play to Mount, keep getting the mixture right to be there or thereabouts. Like alex ferguson when Billy and co go it will be interesting to see what happens. Til then long may they continue to win things!!

Hope all are well, an incredible freakish meeting with Razor (finally) led me back. Would love to be more involved, but who knows one day maybe...

I see Anthony Wolfe has signed for Wexford Youths?

[ballsac7]

I heard Casement got hammered by CIT yesterday which has thrown the Senior 2nd wide open. Three defeats in a row for Casement....what the hell has gone wrong there? They haven't won since Crosshavens objection was dismissed by the league.....maybe its karma???

[casa]

hear malcolm stokes has left marys...anyone got the inside track on this one ?

It's rumoured they are struggling for players as some of their players have GAA commitments as well....

[Duster Bouglas]

Again

[Bodie]

My mate was at the game..Casement full strength, maybe robbie Mahony was missing..outplayed and got frustrated..at 3 1 had centre half sent off for handling ball on the line and a second red at 5 1....players apparantly got very frustrated with eachother..maybe down to all being good friends and having one of the lads as manager.

I'm sure with people like Karl Caulfield they will bounce back.

CIT lost a lot of bad games and only had 10 and 11 players for 4 or 5 games after christmas(exmas and month off college iv heard effected them badly)..otherwise probably the best footballing team in the league.

Keen second division follower..good league.

[offside rule]

Any results from tonights games?, particularly MSL 1st Div?.

Douglas Hall 4 Rockmount 2.
'Hall scorers were Craig Duggan 2, Mark Murphy and Stachan.

avondale beat us one nil afetr extra time in semi final of donie forde cup.very unlucky.no luck this year and we are playing good ballI was down there for the 2nd half and the 1st half of extra time, game was even enough until ye lost a man. Dale looked good in patches but there were chances at both ends.

Marys beat Fermoy 1-0 also so its Dale and Marys in the Donie Forde final next Sunday morning.

Avondale Utd 2-1 Blarney Utd a Beamish Cup result from this morning

[Billynomates]

St Marys 2 -1 Avondale. Avondale dominated the first 25 mins and had Marys camped in there own half. Should have been one or two up. Avondales Mark O sullivan missing a few chances. St Marys Mark O Sullivan scored a tap in for Marys after Avondale failed to clear a tame cross. Ten mins later John Paul O'Sullivan scored a fine header to put Marys 2 up at half time. Avondale huffed and puffed in the second half but Marys defending was excellent and limited Avondale to half chances and could of got one themselves. Mickey O Shea scored late in injury time for Avondale, but little to late and Marys won the Donnie Ford Trophy

Sorry lads was missing for awhile..... Back now tho. No karma there my friend they didnt have a leg to stand on thought that was all behind us now. Worst performance of the season that day. Our attitide the past few weeks has been brutal between the training and matches. Dominated for first half hour but lost 1 centrehalf in the build up to there first goal and after that it was mistake after mistake after mistake. Same fellas doing the mistakes but we have not got the strong panel of others to come in. Won yesterday so hopefully the tide is turning again. Some huge games coming in the next week or two..............................

We've had the same shortened matches with them - don't think the Rockmount match was anything to write home about either.
Absolute shame - hope they can rescue something out of the dismal time they are having.

Their Premier A AUL team was withdrawn as well - looks like the club is in a bit of turmoil at the moment!

[Silly Billy G]

Blarney 1 st marys 0 tight game . Deflected goal from Aidan muuray won it

Rockmount beat Everton 2-1 as well last night.

[archie]

Wouldn't be nice for once if the MSL got off their lazy backsides and put the fixtures for next weekend up a a few days earlier so players can plan for the long weekend!!

I think the fixtures were up on the msl site since last sun, up to the 8th april.
with 65 teams, 6 divisions, various cup compititions and a limited number of ref's, i think whoever's doing the fixtures has a tough job and is far from sitting on his lasy backside.
But there's no pleasing some people.:sleepy:
By the way Evertonian, how did yere draw go last night:question:

I agree. With so many cup games on at the moment it will dictate the follwoing weeks fixtures

[razor]

Mayfield Utd 3-1 Avondale Utd

[archie]

What website were you looking at archie??? They didn't go up until around 4 o'clock yesterday. Surely it doesn't take a whole week to put them up on the website because there is always some people that know when and who they are playing early in the week through connections in the msl. So yes, it is laziness to not have them up when they are clearly done before this.

Didn't see your name pulled out of the hat for the draw anyway. :p
e

In my experience, depending on the circumstances, the msl are very accommadating when it comes to fixture arrangement, theres no problem with a Club secretary contacting the league with regards to fixtures or anything else. however fixtures are sometimes dictated by the results of cup games, replays etc and these dates are often fixed by the fai or mfa.also this season has been plagued by bad weather, so to finish the season, a lot of games will not be re-arranged because someone wants to go on a weekend break or the like.When a player signes he should be prepared for the possibility of playing every week and if he can't make a game, thats between him and his manager, not the overworked fixture sec.

pity about the draw,going on hols next month,could do with the bobs

Blarney should have gone 1 up but after mistake at the back that led to the opener, Blarney just didn't have the legs after playing a game Thursday night.Missing keys players as well through injury.Douglas favourites for final no doubt.

Munster Senior League Beamish Stout Senior 2nd Division Division table

Ballinhassig Played 17 - 38pts
Casement Played 16 - 35 pts
Crosshaven Played 17 - 35 pts

There is gonna be some finish in the 2nd Division - Crosshaven v Ballinhassig in the last game of the season. Casement with two wins from their final two games are certain to be promoted as champions or runners up.
