FAI Junior Cup 2005/06 (Limerick Section)

[the only 1]

balla were impressive against fairview at the weekend i can see them making it 3 in a row

could be right there but balla for years cant attract any good players to them pike should have beaten them dis year already if they can get some players in balla they have a good chance

[see's it]

Balla all ready have good players two leagues in a row proves that.they are the only premier club on the northside of town so they pick up the best players on that side but most of the players are balla anyway.its easier for clubs like Boro and Carew to attract players because all the clubs are near each other and players live in the vacinty.....

[Dirk Diggler]

don't know about that who the hell would want to play out in bateman every other week, its sh*t hole

[Gentle Ben]

I agree with you there but they have a good team and they are mostly local lads, correct me if I am wrong.

Not sure if pike have much fire power - they do have a defence lacking in pace and I think that this will cost them in the FAI and the league in the long run.

Balla for the league with Carew if they get their act together a close second.

[summervilleman]

l.f.c... mark my words lads carew park will beat the boro. carew had alot of big games last season in this comp... and a few in the fai senior playing in front of huge crowds i think that experence will carry them through. iv watched them the last couple of games and there starting to play fantastic football the squad are starting to gel it took a while but its coming together and with the likes of pat mcgarry jason o connor ( top goal scorer in town) johnny corbett (who i think is the best right full in town fantastic player) monty added to an already strong team they will take alot of beaten. IMO


like i told ye lads when the draw was made carew park would beat the boro and wait and see sat... night when the draw is made it will be carew vs balla if im correct about this that proves the draw is a fix for limerick clubs it would be a pity two cracking football teams should be out of town.. carew park have also signed dathi noonan goalkeeper of hill celtic as back up to gordan


HOLD ON A MINUTE BALLA HAVE TO BEAT SUMMERVILLE YET LADS!! GIVE US AT LEAST A CHANCE....COME ON THE UNDERDOG!!!

[SummervilleRule]

Balla should be kicked out of the FAI for their disgraceful behaviour at Portland today but will probably be given the tie after the dodgest second goal in a while. The keeper on the ground with the ball in his hands, getting kicked, the ref awarding a free out, then changing his mind and giving the goal! Then all hell breaks loose, with players not involved the row getting hit from behind while the ref wasn't looking(absolute cowardise in my opinion). And as for the ref... Couldn't tie his laces without instruction! Absolute disgrace, though both team will fell hard doneby by some of his decisions, and listened to players to see what decisions to make. With 35 minutes left there should be at least a replay.

[lim abroad]

who was the ref??

yaaaawn

The ref gave the goal but never blew the whistle which was the problem the keeper started everything, all the the balla players ran back towards the halfway line except for one who was being pushed by the keeper and when he got up he was surrounded by 6/7 summmerville players then all the balla players ran back and it was all hand bag stuff except for one dig that was thrown which the ref didn't see. match was abandoned at 2 - 0 to balla

Summerville tried to kick balla around and got thick when they got it back.

[widow]

FAI draw

Pike v Balla
Carew v Regional
Park v UL
St Patricks v Star

winners out of town bad draw for limerick, with the 4 best teams drawing each other. Great draw for Star and park and UL

[HuRya]

who was the ref??

T Duggan

[see's it]

Summerville tried to kick Balla.ha ha you've got to be having a laugh.thats as funny as summerville charging four euro into the game..........

[gaidin]

Can anyone tell us what actually happened at the Balla - Summerville match. Any nuetral people at it.

[francesco_1]

does that mean hill celtic are left with Toldo and Tommy Lynch for the no1 shirt for the rest of the season..can't wait to see what happens there:) :)

Dathi noonan is going not leaving,he was just ****ed off with the way the club was run,all sorted now

[SummervilleRule]

There was most of the Carew and Hill Celtic(I think) teams there and the ref from that match because it was off. They might be a little bit more unbiased!

[abbeyvale]

it's a pity coz he's your best player by a mile

[Andyryan24]

u reckon?? I think hes let himself go a bit. Not training much either, pity cos he was a good player. Still is, just needs to train.

[abbeyvale]

it's not really the training that's the problem coz he was always some bit fit, it's just getting him interested, if ye could do that ye'd be laughing

[Andyryan24]

ya, but thats very hard with half a team and completly removed of key players. If most of ye stayed, and the best few from the B team then we would be walkin through that league now. What u think?

[abbeyvale]

I'm being totally honest with you, when I say that nobody from Abbey asked me to sign back this season, and I didn't sign with Star until 2 weeks before the start of the season.

I'm not saying I would have signed back but all I am saying is that if they didn't ask me to sign back who's to know who else they didn't ask??

[Andyryan24]

Trust me there was a lot asked......... i did alot of the asking myself. Fair enough there may have been certain members unhappy with Walla goin??? i don't know.

do the maths Alan.. a poor Abbey team in desperate need of players didn't want you and an average Star team in an average league arn't even playing you... does it not all make sense now.go back to Pikes' Bs- they might find a role for you..ITS NEVER TOO LATE:) :)

[l.f.c......]

what a joke pike v balla regional v carew there must be serious questions asked in what the hell is going on with the limerick section of the draw. the likes of distillary st patricks kilfiane maybe one or two more have now got a exallant chance of getting out of town.
and this is not only this year its happenning year in year out e.g pike v fairview fot the last three seasons carew v boro 5 times out of the last six seasons balla v pike etc etc. i feel sorry for balla and pike to loose one them before they get out of town is a joke. as for carew park well they are treating this game against regional as a tougher game than the boro and IMO it will be regional are a very good footballing team. And i think carew will have to play even better than they did against the boro if they are going to get out of town thats how much carew park rate this regional team

I was waiting for that but I thought "The Only 1" would get there first.
Seriously, I was actually asked by Abbey but it was after I had signed with Star.

Who do you play for??

[Roadend]

This is after adding a bit of spice to the game, replay should be interesting


Summerville will definitely be charging at the gate, half of town will turn up expecting a scrap at this one.

[summervilleman]

well something will definately happen i tell u that now....We will give them a good battle anyways!!! we were all over them the last day...hit the post 3 times and fitzy in goals was there man of the match in the 1st half..they scored from one chance(which u would expect from a top premier outfit)...pay your money in folks it promises to be a bruising encounter!!!

Abbeyvale: on the bench the weekend?? what happened there??

I think its great that the lesser lights get a chance to play outside of their league. Down to the luck of the draw...romance of the cup and all that sh1t:ball:

[l.f.c......]

no disrespect to other teams what would be the point of having distillary kilfiane st patricks mungret regional star rovers or ulaa getting out of town ahead of fairview pike or balla boro carew park or regional utd dont mind this romance of the cup crap or its great for the small teams. you need your best teams going out of limerick to have a chance to bring to cup home.

i can see it now st patricks vs ballamun utd
kifiane vs westport utd
mungret v portmarnock

nothing is going to happen to us, ye shower of pussies

[Dirk Diggler]

ah theres no need of that its only a game of ball

[widow]

We did nothing wrong sunday summerville started it all

[the 12 th man]

nothing is going to happen to us, ye shower of pussies

Talk about football lads........................the above is not acceptable.

This is not a Forum for name-calling ,bitch fights etc.

[widow]

sickening the way a team losing can get a match abandoned now we have to play them again, even tho we were 2-0 up. I hope for the sake of soccer in this town that other teams don't start doing this or limerick soccer is in trouble. Its a farce, ah sure we'll just have to bate em again!

[SummervilleRule]

Let your football do the talking. It's no farce whatsoever, and ye should count yourselves lucky to still be in it after some of the most cowardly acts seen all season. If ye want to get involved in a fight at least pick on players involved in the fight!

[the 12 th man]

If I see one more reference to this incident there will be bans going out.
The people involved know who they are as they've recieved messages from me.

[widow]

how did the results go, come on balla

[see's it]

any incidents worth putting on here for a laugh from the balla game yest?

[widow]

how'd carew and regional finish yesterday
