Cork AUL 2021/22

[JaketheSnake]

There was a shortage of good ref now thers just no refs . .

I thought most of the refs would come back now that you have retired :D

[JaketheSnake]

Coachford definitely going senior next season after they rip up cork for 1 year class club I'd say Aul gone in 2 seasons .

Rip up Cork? There is not much left to rip up . The AUL is a pathetic joke at this stage

[goal-achio]

Pathetic joke is a bit much, standard in football at all levels has dropped considerably. There are players now playing week in week out in the munster senior league in their late 30's that were only playing junior in their peak. Referees are getting too much abuse lads that's why there is a shortage, leagues should bring in heavy fines to clubs that fail to control their lines and that includes club members and supporters

[fruice]

The question is how do you get more refs on board.

We are fine hurlers on the ditch saying this lad is poor or the other is poor very few willing to put on the refs jersey in the finish

[SteveSilvermint]

I agree with most of what you say but some refs are a joke not all but 3or 4 wer very agenda driven ..but I guess it was the money with them ... either way lose coachford and it huge on the back of covid

Another 4 games of today, if I was one of them players I’d take a ref with an agenda any day.

[SteveSilvermint]

Desperate guys do desperate things .

[Play it out]

Another disappointing weekend of cancellations.

Shocking for everyone involved who were delighted to have games back after COVID.

It will be really those teams who can try to stay on top of things who will succeed come the other side of Xmas.

[fruice]

We’re those games COVID cancellations or referees shortages.
I know the school boys lost over 10 games today due to referee shortages

[goal-achio]

How is losing Coachford the be all and end all, sort out the referee situation and we will be on the pigs back again. How many rounds are there in cork in the fai cup?

They struggled after losing kinsale Wilton leeside years ago I just think losing knocka recently and now coachford the
Competitive edge takes another blow.

[ExplainThis]

2 out of 9 AUL League games went ahead at the weekend. Will be a long season at that rate!

1 game Saturday was a walk over and beat this they forgot to tell the ref and he should up to no teams!!!


Another game Sunday was called Saturday night due to a club having covid related issue. Had a ref assigned to it but no game madness.

I think there is plenty interest from Clubs around Cork in general for the league to continue for years to come. What incentive is there for any fellas to take up refereeing though. Abuse, aggression, intimidation, insults, threats. It's less tolerated at the higher levels, but on a Sunday morning in AUL, you're on your own. I can see why there's a shortage! You'd need to pay lads a bit more to make it any way worthwhile...

[Pass pass pass]

The fairfield this morning was a thriller of a game i dont know how blarney st won it a savage result for them. Hibs will be like dogs they left an awful game after them. Sunday morning dont suit the Blareny st it looked like down to bare bones numbers wise but what a win for them.

Didnt think they would be out partying anymore. Sure arent they all old men with kids?

[goal-achio]

No fixtures lads am I missing something?

[SteveSilvermint]

So what's it lookin like lads ..

[goal-achio]

Grattan getting the job done again today,fair play to them. Some boys for a 1 nil win in big matches

[Dr. football]

Are Glen Celtic after folding again?

[goal-achio]

Heard nothing, draw is out for aoh lads, all the big guns should ease through

[Play it out]

Wouldn't be surprised since they lost John Corcoran, he did a lot there. Being banned from playing in The Glen wasn't exactly a good sign either.

[Runthechannels]

Games off already this weekend because of no refs!!! All munster senior league games gone ahead refs want nothing to do with Aul... Big trouble ahead by looks of it won't last at this rate

[goal-achio]

Why can’t they play at home?

[Play it out]

Without going into too much detail, it involved "supporters" fighting opposition on the pitch.

What you are saying is true. So they now have to play all their games away from the Glen Park for the season. Thats going to be expensive.

[goal-achio]

That’s a right kick in the nuts, question lads, how many more rounds in the fai cup before your in the open draw

[Radiostar]

It’s 4th round this year

[goal-achio]

Cheers radiostar. Aoh is hotting up now lads, I suppose everyone will want to avoid Coachford and Grattan

[footballblue]

Temple got a rude awakening yesterday humbled by division 2 richmond.. Richmond are flying it tho.could have been more than 4 too i heard and richmond had 10 men for an hour by all accounts

Big win for Richmond beating premier side Temple. Dark horses maybe.

[goal-achio]

Ya they are flying tbf. Have they lost a game yet? Where did they recruit the players from, they will walk the league anyway

[latte2012]

Always nice to see Temple humbled. Their carryon on the sideline is never too great. 😃

[latte2012]

They should walk the league with the squad they have. Couple of premier lads joined them . They are very fit from what I saw of them.

Not as bad as the behaviour on the Glen's line it seems by all accounts ;)

Didn’t they take a lot of players from central?

[latte2012]

Coachford looking like they are getting stronger and stronger as season goes on.

[Play it out]

Strong results from Coachford. Who will challenge them for the Premier?

[latte2012]

Can’t see anyone even getting close. They are leaps and bounds ahead of every other team in the aul.

If they had any ambition they would be gone by now. They have a good setup facilities wise and an underage structure. Why are they still in the AUL?

I’m sure they will sooner rather than later. Takes a few seasons to get the house in order to make the switch to MSL. No point rushing it if they aren’t ready. It’s not as straight forward as just joining MSL. Need to make sure foundations are in place for decent young lads coming through to eventually go senior and so on.

[Johnnie C]

Good wins yesterday in FAI Junior for Coachford and Grattan. Always nice to get one over on the Dubs.

Absolutely. Shows there is some quality teams in the AUL yet.

[Johnnie C]

Coachford and Grattan must have a bit of quality alright as they're in the last 32 of Munster Junior Cup as well.

[goal-achio]

Lads when was the 3rd round draw for the aoh made? I never saw it come up anywhere.

[Play it out]

All the draw is made out already, it's on a bracket on AUL League Republic.

[goal-achio]

I enquired about that and was told it wasnt the draw but we have that match this week. I knew it was too much of a coincidence. It was never done like that before though was it?

[Play it out]

That's how it's been worked alrite for the last few years and in league cups too, can tell who's next already!
