Clare League 2006/07

[QUOTE=Brazil Nut;647863]


Newtown had told the league they would'nt be able to field a team on the day the fixture was announced and also asked if it could be moved a day for but were told "no". This resulted in a walkover.

Funny enough you say this the newtown LADS havent got a clue about this,they all thought there match yesterday was just called off due to weather,this is a joke that the youths arent informed about this.:rolleyes:

Shouldn't bother the youths too much as it was the 17's that were meant to play. I think they gave a w/o as a protest.

[el_nino84]

I heard Declan 'Spinky' McDonald scored a spectacular goal to send Bridge United out of the Clare Cup.......good 'ol Clare People :)

[2legged tackle]

Anyone know the league top scorers in the league?

I'd say Declan "spinky" McDonald must be up running away with it.
Anyone know anyone with more?

[Offside]

Bridge United and Newtown was played in impossible conditions at the weekend i don't think anyone wanted it to go to extra-time especially the home team as the pitch was cutting up very badly. A great strike to finish what must have been a tough game for both teams who meet again this weekend. I wonder will the pitch be playable this week? It seemed very badly cut up after the game on Sunday and don't Newtown youths have a match at home sometime this week?

[shelbourne1904]

[QUOTE=CousinSylDolan;647854]

Any comment on this Shelbourne?? was talking to some of the players who thought the game was postponed due to both pitches being unplayable:confused:


I have a lot to say about it.On the previous Tuesday at training the 5 u17s who play with the youths and remaining players who come from the 16s informed the club that they were not available to play on Paddys Day as they were going top the various parades so out of a panel of 19 players only 8 were available.The club informed Michael lydon that night and he stated that they should make themselves available and he was not calling of a match on Tuesday night.By Thursday /Friday the situation had not changed so Newtown informed the league and again they were told the match would not be switched so the club were informed that it would be deemed a walkover because the players should know the 17s and youths were played on alternate weekends.

If this is the case why was a 17s match on Saturday and Youths on Monday,???We were forced into this situation and never wanted to give a walkover and instead of being encouraged and assisted in keeping 17s and youths going we are being hampered.

[Offside]

If you have reasonable grounds for the match to be re-scheduled I don't understand why it can't be.. sounds like the Clare league are (in the words of Roy Keane.) being a bunch of muppets! If you give them nearly a weeks notice that you can't field a team I think they should at least consider it. How stupid are they to even schedule a match for St.Paddys day!?

look...I have to say that the league were nearly completely right not to call it off. loads of games hav been cancelled already and its a tight schedule at this stage.If the most of the Newtown 17s panel want to go off and take part in stupid,childish parades around shannon INSTEAD of playin a big cup match then let 'em f*** off and do it because that is one of the most stupid reasons to try call off a game --because of walkin around in a crap parade.fair play to lydon.i'd say somethin if they had players being forced to play gaa instead but --a parade!!for god sake.youths games wer on monday because it was a bank holiday,wats wrong wit that.jesus its a sad day to see 11 or so lads wantin to take part in a stupid parade over playin soccer..they arent REAL soccer lads anyway

[shelbourne1904]

"i'd say somethin if they had players being forced to play gaa instead".

"they arent REAL soccer lads anyway


Lets try and figure the logic in this one.

Its ok if you go and play GAA but its not if you go to a parade with your families on Patricks Day.

Is this because St Paddy was foreigner???

[shelbourne1904]

Bridge celtic b 3- Shannon olympic 1

well deserved win for bridge celtic....defended excellently through out the match and scored 3 good goals to take a deserved 3 nil half time lead....olympic had most of the territory second half but created little chances got a lucky goal when a tame shot hit a divet and rolled under the keepers legs....
ref was poor and gave nearly every 50/50 to olympic

fair play to bridge celtic b...i dont think anyone gave them much of a chance

What about the 50/50 box in the face Jimmy Houlihan got right under the refs nose????

[CousinSylDolan]

Did Oly rest players for this game and get caught on the hop????

[Interested]

i dont think it was a case of resting players more like they were all away..or hungover.jesus i had to play in nets.couldn't blame them wit paddy's weekend and all..what i cant understand is why were all the cup matches not on bank holiday monday when lads would be recovered.or is there preference for some teams..if you look at it 9 out of 10 times olympic and bunratty would beat last weeks opposition...and now both are out of the cup..must be great for those teams that had there matches called off even though lydon stated that matches had to be switched to opponents ground if home pitch unplayable...good old clare league....

Just a simple question Hacker, can you clarify which teams got preferance to play on the Monday as I was under the impression that Cup games were down for Sunday, with League games going ahead on Monday (I could be wrong with this).
On a lighter note, have to agree with your 9 out of 10 sentiments, unfortunately, that leaves the 1 in which you can be beaten as proven last weekend.
With regards to the League and M. Lydon in particular, you will have probably noticed that a lot of fixtures have fallen foul of the weather and is weeks behind schedule and every opportunity is being taken to bring it up to scratch. If that entails playing Paddies weekend, so be it. The teams that won are not complaining.
The way the weather is continueing, we could have Summer Soccer after all.

[smellyfeet]

I'd be surprised if the Clare League made a clever decision like this:rolleyes:

Hacker, you must be dissapointed with the lads that let you down by not turning up or being too hungover. I cant see any reason why the matches shouldn't have went ahead on Sunday, players had enough notice. Its down to priorities, would they rather get ****ed on Paddy's day or have a chance of winning the cup? They had sunday night to go out and monday to recover FFS. I'm sure some people will disagree but thats life!

[Brazil Nut]

if you look at it 9 out of 10 times olympic and bunratty would beat last weeks opposition...and now both are out of the cup.

Are you referring to Mountshannon when you say Bunratty would beat them 9 out of 10 times?? If so, your having a laugh. Mountshannon are a very organised tough team to beat, and were also missing a few themselves through injury. Also a premier side!! I dont think Bunratty would beat any premier team 9 out of 10 times:rolleyes:

Bunratty may not beat any team in the premier 9 times out of 10 but you can be sure they'd give any team in the premier a run for their money. As i'm aware Bunratty were missin a few players also!

[brutus]

wouldn't that be great..could start in april and finish around september..and then in september october and november play clare cup and divisional cups..so any team still in f.a.i and munster cup will still be playing regularly...
but this will never happen as 3 or 4 clubs will always oppose it..

great idea,but if the clare league were going to do this it would have been done years ago..

[brutus]

I spoke to jim madden last week. one of the reasons this hasn't been dealt wit at an agm is that nobody has put it in writing to the league..you would need 2 or 3 clubs to go for it then it would have to be voted on ..which is where we would know where it stands wit all clubs..

Wel maybe something could be done about it so,because you could easily get more than 3 teams to vote for the summer soccer,95% of clubs would definetely be in favour for it,the pitches would be alot better,the weather would be good and personally i think it would put clare soccer up a notch.

would agree with you papa-j.. is this the same olympic who were sticking together / battling to stay up .. & yet they could not have a bit of pride for their club >> very easy to stay in or take it handy on a saturday night

[smellyfeet]

Pitches would be better, people might actually come and watch and the players would enjoy playing in the heat, instead of a muddy bog of a pitch. Also it would weed out all the clubs who have GAA players playing I'm not saying thats a bad thing having GAA players but they would, at some stage have to choose what sport they want to play. The Clare League can only benefit from such a move.:ball: :ball:

Is there anyone on the Clare League Committee that Looks at this site???
Here is something to consider if there is.:ball:

[Offside]

Any word on when the draw is being made for the quarter final?

[shelbourne1904]

Lads Im a bit surprised, but maybe I shouldnt be,that in mentioning summer football(Its called soccer in America) that noone mentioned that the Clare Schoolboy League is moving to summer from June this year.All clubs advised,seperate subcommitte has covered all possible points including,referees, already having had quite productive and positive meeting with the GAA people with a view to avoiding clashes as much as possible.

All Systems GO

[old git]

old git last time i checked winning a cup game doesn't keep you up..they stay in every saturday nite when league match next day..thats all thats asked of them..as for having pride for there club..cant fault any of them this year..


so you as an olympic clubman / supporter are ok with players not giving a sH**t about winning cup... :confused:

[Side Cutter]

so you as an olympic clubman / supporter are ok with players not giving a sH**t about winning cup... :confused:

I think before the cup started olympics priority was to stay up.Winning the cup or getting a good run in it will not stop you from being relegated.What it will do is hamper your chances of staying up.I was at the game on sunday and bridge b were well worth their win.Olympic were missing a lot of players but still should have came through.They tried and they were beaten end of story.

[chappie]

hungover or not should have been able to beat bridge celtic b at home ... or maybee the bridge celtic lads stayed off the drink for st paddys day ,,:ball:

no most of the b team had a good old skip of drink paddys day...but most of the boys would have played with bad hangovers many a time before...in fairness the conditions suited more bridge celtic b as they are a big physical team...
no offence,but we could not believe how poor olympic were on the day....they didnt even look related to a premier team...

[Interested]

your totally right we were terrible on the day...i taught your central defence were very good ..even though they probably add up to 100 years of age ..ha ha... best of luck in next round

You can't beat experiance, Hungover or not and the 2 lads playing at the back were old fellas even when I hung up my boots many years ago.
The differance between the teams was not in League positions but in a will to beat a team from a higher division which is why Cup football generates so much interest. C'mon the Underdogs. Especially T.J. (The experianced player at the back from Bridge).

[QUOTE=Interested;649680]Just a simple question Hacker, can you clarify which teams got preferance to play on the Monday as I was under the impression that Cup games were down for Sunday,


rineanna v turnpike and lifford b v burren...both cup matches played monday..

Thanks for clearing up this one Hacker. Don't know the reason but none of the 4 teams involved have anyone on the League Committee to suggest preferential treatment.

jesus the jimmy rocks of bridgetown

[Young Lad]

[QUOTE=Interested;650372]

fair enough but you dont have to be on the committee to be friends wit the committee...it doesnt matter anyway but i still dont understand how the other 3 cup games on sunday weren't played..as it was stated teams would lose home advantage if pitch unplayable...jesus of the six teams that didnt play at least 4 of there pitches are dryer than ours???

I think its a bit of a joke losing home advantage in this case particularly if the other teams pitch isn't playable. We were playing Avenue in a Munster cup game a few years ago. Both teams were togged out and the referee failed to show and told the League he inspected the pitch and called the game off. We lost home advantage.

played against him a few times in earlier years.. he usually played around midfield.. sound man indeed .. could give & take a kicking also but also a good footballer with it... tell gus to keep on playing as long as possible .. any chance of joe ahern making a comeback :)

Tonight in the Barge Rooms, Ennis @ 9pm, members of the Rineanna Rovers AFC will be partaking in a Sponsored Head Shave for St Josephs Chernobyl Support Group in Ennis, Co Clare. For anyone who wants to have a laugh at our expense (and i'm not talking about our football exploits:D :D ), please feel free to come along....

The support group do not currently have their own website, but if you are interested in finding out more about what they do, please look at the Chernobyl International website link below.
http://www.chernobyl-international.com/what_we_do/what_we_do.482.html
The group raises funds to bring children from Chernobyl to Ireland & arranges for each child to live with an Irish family during their time here. To quote the website; "For each child taken to Ireland they are "returned" two years of life. We are hostages to the hazardous aftermath of radiation, and the future of our very race is threatened with extinction, as our children, our gene pool, are seriously ill. In the midst of this tragedy we have been given hope by the people of Ireland."

Newtown 4-1 Bridge United

Newtown took a step closer to Moher at the top of the table and bossed this game throughout. The 1st goal came just on 3 minutes when Tom Ohare's cross was put into the net by Billy Maxwell, A mix up bewtween the keeper and defender put Newtown in front. The 2nd came about 5 minutes later when Ray quigley's cross field ball found David 'Egais' Egan who hit the ball on the half volley from at least 20 yards over the head of the Bridge United keeper, an absolute cracker to put the home side 2-0 up. The 3rd came from a corner when a great ball in from Trevor Maxwell was headed home with a great leap from Tom O'hare. The 4th was pretty much route one stuff when skinny blasted the ball up field a flick off the head of Cheeky and Greg Deegan, one on one with the keeper slotted home with a cool finish. United pulled a goal back but by this time they were dead and buried, 4-1 at half time and it stayed that way throughout the 2nd half. Newtown could have scored more and are really on form at the minute. It'll be tough for anyone to get a result against them at the minute.

Bossed the whole game!!!!! Be Fair, im nuetrel.. and it wasnt that easy for them the scoreline flatters newtown, you will always get more chances wen the oposition is pushing forward, bridge had good chances and alot of the ball, no penatrating forward tho...newtown had more hunger i'll admit..Bridge dont look fit..

[Offside]

Newtown did boss the game and had far more chances throughout. Bridge aren't half the team they used to be (imo), they have a young squad judging by their subs. It doesn't look like there will be any silverware for them this season. Corofin beaten in the cup, fair play to Newmarket finally there will be a new cup winner this year. Unlucky to Corofin, 3 in a row would have been some achievement. Any report from any other games?

[old git]

I agree we need to get into the premier to be considered a serious force. In the play off game last year we weren't up for it and were well beaten. It will be very difficult to win 3 in a row as we are no longer a surprise package. I would have thought we would be longer odds than 6/1.


They probably gave ye them short odds because of ye being the cup holders:ball:[/QUOTE]

any report on yesterdays match with newmarket

any report on yesterdays match with newmarket[/QUOTE]


I felt we had the better of the first half however only created 1 or 2 half chances. Newmarket had the better of it in the second half particularly the last half an hour where they had a few descent chances. They scored with a penalty in the last 5 mins as a result of a handball. There was little between the teams but Newmarket probably did deserve to shade it.

It was a tough way to go out but these things happen.We exceeded all expectations in the cup over the last 2 years. Now we have to concentrate on making the break-through to the premier.

[guvnor]

Corofin did not take advantage of the hill in the first half and were limited to half chances but in fairness to them they would definitly not look out of place in the premier. They are a good tough team and from what i saw yesterday they will keep improving if the keep the attitude the showed before,during and after the game. As for Newmarket, they showed plenty of determination and had a solid team out with their 1st choice keeper for the first time this season.I think they will be looking at this result now to boost the rest of their season.. anyone for a Newmarket and Rineanna final to be played on the ennis rd????;)

[buts86]

well lads anyone know if the cup draw is made yet?

do you know the draw yet cousinsyl??

Sorry lads...no idea if it was even done. I thought it would be in the Clare People yesterday but no sign. If I hear anything I'll let ye know.

[Offside]

The draw wasn't made.. I guess the Clare league didn't think it was important enough to organise it properly.

[Brazil Nut]

The draw wasn't made.. I guess the Clare league didn't think it was important enough to organise it properly.

Draw will be held next monday night by all accounts, unsure as to why it wasn't made last monday! some good games in store, very strong teams left. will be very interesting draw with home advantage the most important factor as most teams are capable of winning it!
