Eventhough I am a Clonmel Town Fan, it is very sad to hear about all the trouble that Celtic is in. I just hope that they do sort out their problems, Clonmel needs and can accomidate two big teams
You're right, Clonmel could easily accommodate two big teams with both challenging for the title. I wish some of the people at your own and several other TSDL clubs felt the same way though; a lot of Celtic's signed players have been approached ever since the sh*t hit the fan.........still no one can force anyone to leave, you couldn't blame them really (maybe a bit ;) )

Danny Madigan and Stephen Ryan have left and joined Clonmel Town? I know Madigan has, just wondering if the Stephen Ryan story is true?

Yeah, it's true alright.
Good result for Celtic yesterday 2-1 against Cahir, in fairness it could have been 10 with the chances missed. Brian Carroll got the winner but could've scored a hat-trick. If the players left stay together they could yet stay up.

Both played for Town yesterday against Galbally as well as Ian Fraher and Barry O'Neill. You have to question the wisdom of signing Stephen Ryan- chronically unfit, no control and devoid of ideas??? Moroney looked a lot more comfortable when partenering Illija up front. TBH i dont think S. Ryan is good enough for Town B. The other 3 looked comfortable enough although id be surprised if any of them can force their way into a first choice 11. The match itself was a poor spectacle, Town never really got out of second gear and Galbally didnt create much going forward. Sterner tests lie ahead.
michaels 9-0 clonmel celtic
rock rovers 3-3 borris

That is some hammering Clonmel Celtic got, where has it all gone wrong for them after such an impressive season last year :confused:
Good result for Bansha Celtic away from home and the other results going their way too. A good young squad there, once they stay up they will be a team to watch out for in the coming seasons :ball:;)

If Bansha put their mind to it they could finish 3rd behind town n saints.. rock rovers too are capable. bansha are very hard beat out in their own patch

Clonmel threatened quite a lot from set pieces(of which they had a lot) but did very little in general play(other than win those set pieces) , Nenagh had success mainly on the counter-attack but Clonmel would have had more possession and a few more chances(although nothing really clear cut) .
Michael Hogan(Scouter) scored a 25 yard cracker to give Nenagh the lead , Raymond Condon equalised by hammering the ball in from 6 yards after a long throw had failed to be dealt with .
Jean Semanovich made it 2-1 Clonmel in the first half of extra time and Michael O'Gorman equalised in the second half of extra time after a **** up between the keeper and one of his defenders .
Nenagh were coming on strong towards the end of extra time but couldn't find a 3rd goal to nick the game . Clonmel won 5-3 on penalties(not 5-4 as some sources are saying) with Michael Coady, Barry O’Neill, Kenneth Kiely, Richie Ryan and Arron Moroney scoring for them and Michael O'Gorman , Stefan Olah and Gary McCormack scoring for Nenagh , Martin Donnellan missed for Nenagh .

Wasn't at the match but it was big scare for Town. Still, they are in round and thats all that matters
it was a scare for them alright . luckily they got through cause they represent the leagues best chance of any success this year. cant see any other team doing anything. the exodus of players from certain clubs is crazy. peake loosing so many to kilkenny. cahir must have lost at least 7 first team regulars of last seasons squad to other teams shane mcgrath,paul frazer,pa quinn, keith maguire,tango etc . 8 of galballys squad from last year havent kicked a ball yet this season. leaving them to rely on b team players to make up numbers and having bare eleven players on a sunday. clonmel celtic too have lost loads paul kennedy, stephen ryan , danny madigan etc. the standard in premier league has really dropped this year and i cant see it getting any better in the near future

If the lunacy of the last few years where they get a good run and then go on the **** before a big game disappears then yeah I would really expect them to finish 3rd.
They have a good group of lads who thankfully want to play together and play with Bansha Celtic. It is nice to see some loyalty to one's home club still left in the game.
Eddy Grace, Chester O Dwyer, Michael O Connell, Stephen McGrath, Tony Egan, Barry Grogan, Adrian Grace and I believe -(had more clubs than Tiger Woods)- Bocca Glasheen ....a great mix of youth and experience. They stay together they will do well......hopefully :o

Very true and I am a saints fan, was a great cup game and cashel gave their all, thing is though saints are in the next round.. showed great character 2-0 down then 3-2 down in extra time.. cashel will have to learn from the experience that you need to close out games.. Michaels never panicked and once James Walsh got them back in it with a great header i was confident they'd go on to win it. remember too they lost paul breen and paul tobin to injury so all in all great character shown when they played second fiddle for 90 mins

I agree with ya 100% that cashel need to learn how to close out games,but that will come with experience as their team is a very youthful team.Paul Breen was not injured,he just had a very bad day and was taken off.Paul Tobin was injured.Michaels are in the next round all the same but they still need to come to Cashel in two weeks time and that should be another good game in the FAI..:ball::ball:

It sure it will in 2 weeks thats what cup games are all about..
cashel must be fairly handy . i know they got coleman and fitzell back from rosegreen. who else have they signed
Cashel do have a good side this year and heard they had a easy win yesterday.Played them in pre season and they looked very fit.Need a top keeper and centre half if want to be a very top side.have to say they look like a club on the up if they can keep all their players!!Tip them to beat Michaels next time.Michaels not the team they used to be!

thats the beauty about footie.. everyone has an opinion... not sure about standards dropping.. its only october... judge at end of season.... may the best team win as they say.. hopefully we'll get as good and as competitive and entertaining a game as we did last week.....
by standards dropping i mean playin second fiddle to clonmel town now for a few years??be a very good game and another thing is hopefully the referee does not ruin a potentially great game!!

Very brave statement re: cashel to beat saints in FAI !!!
Its not like St. Michaels have set the FAI alight in the last two years, they have gone out before anyone even thinks about whos looking good for the latter stages.
Cashel by all accounts deserved to win the last game, so why is it such a shock to hear someone say that they can win the next one !!
I agree about Michaels not being as good as before, loosing games they would have scored a hatful of goals in a few years ago. Is it the fact that players are more inclined to stay with their own clubs now or are the players just not there???
How come Clonmel Town can keep a high standard every year and no-one else can :confused:
The reason why clonmel can keep a very good standard is because they are always on the look out for new players for the next season,thinking a head, planning for the future!!plus they have a very good core of local players who are some of the best around.i have to admit michaels have a few decent players too in breen and walsh.about cashel they have players now who will not leave for the so called bigger clubs which has happened alot in the past.The town of cashel produces some of the best and if cashel keep these players which now is starting to happen they will a force to be reckoned with in the near future.am i right in saying cashel will be at home against michaels,ya?
cashel don t even have a youth team so dont know where they are gonna produce these players from to keep in future. most of the players with cashel now left em 2or 3 years ago to sign for rosegreen when cashel were struggling.i honestly think saints will beat them 2 or 3 nil on sunday in the fai
stevie11
10/10/2007, 5:22 PM
Cashel have got very strong under age teams as they always have had,but in years gone by all these players left for different clubs when they got ta youths level cause things werent movin as smoothly as they should have been but now players are willing to stay and play for their hometown club and not moving onto the so called bigger clubs..And with having no youth team their is a stromg under 15s team which is there for the future and if you look at the team that played michaels last week,all the players are very young apart from one or two so that can only be good!!Never know what way the game will go on sunday but either way should be a tough game for both sides n may de best team win!!

it michael coleman to my knowledge.am i rite in saying a cashel youths team reached etheir a fai or munster youths cup final 2 years ago??could be wrong
yeah they did reach munster youth cup final 2 years. had a very good side. think a few of the lads from that team are playing league of ireland with kilkenny now though not many of em still with cashel

With the utmost respect to Ballingarry, their pitch is brutal. Very narrow.
They are a tough team to play against.
They are leading Division 1 of TSDL. ;)

Was at saints v Cashel yesterday.. Saints were very comfortable and only for poor finishing, luck and the cashel keeper it could have been 3 or 4.. cashel had 1 shot on target in whole game. saints defence mopped up everything.. I must say the cashel pitch was shocking. I walked across it and the holes and bumps on it for this stage of the year is worrying.. It won't suit this cashel team who like to pass it about.. Cashel are a nice team, very niave but should be in premier league in 2 years.

A tough away tie for Michaels but they got through it just the same. Can you see then going much further though, the team has been struggling for a few years now and gone through various management set ups and still no-where!
Its fine being in the top section of the league, but the competition hasn't been there in order to threaten that. The cup competitons haven't seen too many winners medals either, how are Michaels going to get back to where they were a few years ago :confused:

Yeah I agree with you, not bad.
But for a club of Michaels stature they should be whipping teams in their league and getting themselves well into the latter stages of the BIG competitions.
If soccer was like GAA and you could only play for your own local team how well do you think the big 2 would do then ?
Would the fact that players have began sticking with their local team be a reason behind Michaels fading back from top junior soccer competition in the last few years?
How many of the top teams ( I don't want to sound like I'm picking on St.Michaels ) have a good 7 or 8 players from their locality?

The last time St.Michaels were in a big final was the MJC 2006.
Squad :
Kevin O Sullivan, James Walsh (Cashel) - Paul Breen (Dundrum) - Christopher Higgins, Stephen Grace (Bansha) - Derry Peters (Aherlow) - Ray McMahon, Barry Ryan (Limerick) - Padraig Fogarty (Thurles) - Richie Ryan
(Annacarthy) - Aaron Moroney (Clonmel) -Sean O Halloran, Davy Ryan, Denis Cremmins, Lee Dudley, Alan Kiely (Tipperary Town).

Everyone knows that Clonmel Town have a bulk of Clonmel players in their squad, but it is easier for them in the sense that there are a few clubs in the town.Clonmel Town are such a successful club if they approach players from other clubs within the town they seem to jump at the opportunity. But thats football I guess.:ball:
