Limerick Division 1B 2007/08

[gaiscíoch]

It's called football mate. Anything can happen at junior level.

Your telling me that Holycross can beat Coonagh (3rd) away from home, get a draw against us (2nd) away and them get absolutely slaughtered by Croom 9-0..... Only word that comes to mind is farce.... :eek:... 3,4 maybe even 5 but 9 even us last year with the state we were wouldn't of been beaten that bad.....

Such is the way at that level. Teams in that division can have 8,9 or 10 players missing any given week and replace them with minors, B or C team players or even play with what they have. Be it 9 or 10 players. Premier is the only level where players show up every week and even they struggle when the mid-week games start.

Are you for real.... Your tag is the most ironic one I have even seen.... :confused:

You must be having a laugh,any time ive seen park play they have full team,maybe some weeks have up to 7 or 8 on the bench,this goes with most teams,you must be playing or watching,division 4B,snap into reality should have been your user name,spacer.:D

Park are the exception at that level. They have their first team in that league and so train and organise like a premier team even if they do play football thats suits 3b.

Fair enough but if you have anything to say about pike you should be in the lim prem thread because personally i dont think anyone who is involved with posts in 1B thread couldnt care less what you have to say about pike.ill leave it at that.

[Mr. Reality]

Pike are in 1b too genius.. And I did say Pike in my comments. Not Pike premier. Go

Your right they probably are the most hated club I've ever came across. Personally I've nothing against them but if it's a straight shot between Fairview and Pike, it's Fairview all the way for me.

And I also have nothing against Pike. Or Fairview for that matter. I am not so petty as to hate any team. Dislike yes, but hate not at all.

[Spudd]

Mr reality you post some amount of crap in a few threads,if you ask me you were refering to pike prem because thats what most ppl do on this site is talk about there A team,pike B have never got a mention on this site unless its updating fixtures or results,so stop changing your words,gimp.:D

Ha ha ha.. I bet your short. Probably bald too. You have a lot of anger in you man. Want a hug??

[Spudd]

Axe man who are ye playing this weekend?would want to get a win under yer belt to get back on track or its IB football again for another season.:ball:

[Mr. Reality]

Pike and Fairviiew will be tasty this weekend. I heard Pike are on verge of pulling out all together. Any truth in that?

[Mr. Reality]

Ha ha ha.. I bet your short. Probably bald too. You have a lot of anger in you man. Want a hug??
Listen mate, I'm just winding you up. I do have a lot of respect for Newtown if that is your club. Was out there several times as a schoolboy player and always had excellent games. Best of luck with yer season.

Is that because they don't have enough players or what's the story. Would be great for us as it would be another 3 points along the way and an away game chalked off. Last year I think Cappamore done it after they beat us we were robably going down anyway but it was kind of frustrating. Could I ask when and who you played against Newtown with?.

National cups for a Limerick club. Under 12's and again under 15's. We won both times but Newtown were very good sides. I haven't been out there in awhile but they are one of the few Clare teams I've been impressed with.

Ya Newtown have always been a nice club. They put an awful lot of work into the underage setup. The facilities they have are excellent aswell the changing rooms are nice and big(only been in them once). Who did you play for?

A big Limerick club. I won't say who. Privacy is of the essence on this site. I found that out from people. On the subject of this division, will ye go up with Croom, or is someone going to spoil the party, maybe Shels or Coonagh?

I respect that....
We hope to go up with Croom obviously, I think we are not far away from getting that win. Or last 5 fixtures have been Prospect away(beat 3-2), Holycross away(win2-0), Croom home(beat 2-1), Holycross home(draw1-1) and shelbourne away(beaten 3-1).

Crazy thing is that we have been leading against Prospect, Holycross and Shelbourne at half time (all one nil). Shelbourne won't get out of the division... Coonagh are physically very strong so I expect they will push us.

I've been with two clubs for moderate spells during promotion in Clare and this by far the hardest league to get out of.

Ya its tough no doubt. I can tell you that a good friend of mine is involved with Shels and they are ready to make an almighty push for the top. They can be very strong on their day as you know from that defeat ye had. Watch for them in coming weeks. But good luck with your effort, Park should be Premier and it is a pity what happened in the last few years.

Regarding Shels I just think they left it too late. They have some three good players that should and would be in a top 4 side in the Premier if they wanted. It's a very intimidating place to go all the same.

It's a pity but I know alot of people in Shannon who couldn't care less because of the previous of the club but the main men whose opinions count are trying to fix it.

Stay tuned because it's going to be a good ride

We had a bad start to the season, But we will give it all we got for the rest of the season to try and get promoted.:rolleyes: It will be hard but we will not give up without a fight. Beating park sunday was a good result. We were pleased with the result, But we did not play as well as we can. We know that we can play far better than that. Traning hard at the moment so hopefuuly it will pay off.. We are playing STAR sunday in the lawson cup. ( should be a good game )..:D

And who do you reckon these players are that are good enough for that level because i cant see them?:confused:

[abbeyvale]

In fairness they have some very good players, that wouldmore than hold their own in the Prem.
Gary Ryan, Smiggy, Damien Leo, Stephen Leo (all ex Balla "A" players in the last few years), along with Keith O'Donnell who is also another good player.

And who may I ask do you play for or support.??? when have you seen us play? The lads mentioned by abbeyvale are all good enough to play premier football.. I have no doubt in my mind that they would get any of the top 6 prem teams..

[gaiscíoch]

Fixtures
Croom v Prospect
Pike v view
Any others or is that it.

Any results to these games???

I saw Shels today against Star and was not a bit impressed....they seemed a bit over awed by a poor Star side...
I reckon that the second spot will be between Fairview and Coonagh....sneaking suspicion Coonagh will have enough firepower to get a run together and win..they play shels and Park at home and my sources said are training mad and ready to give it a huge go..

this is the crazy time in football....!!! always expect the unexpected.....:p

They have the ability but not the attitude. They wouldnt last a few weeks with a top premier club now, cos they arent bothered.

Maybe Keith O Donnell, but not the others.

A Star Rovers player was attacked after the game as he tried to get into his vehilce on the main road by Shelbournes left full (dont know his name),
As the Star player retaliated 2 more Shelbourne players jumped in.

I wouldn't say Shelbourne are complete thugs as I know some of the other players and they are nice guys, but definitely these 3 guys are and bring the name of the club through the gutter.

Thats scandalous. I'd agree that it's only a small few causing trouble. Against us 2 players sould have been sent off... One of the subs on the line had a fews words with of one of the lads during the game too which weren't very nice to say the least (I know! I know! get over it, but there is no need for it).

Sad to hear that going on but it's only two or three of them that carry on like that... Feel sorry for the rest of the players cause most of them are sound.

Does anyone know why the semi final between knockainey and shelbourne keeps getting called of?

Why are there linesmen as well. I thought only the final got linesmen


saw them earlier on this season and they have some scum bags on the team its a pity as they where a great club

After their antics last Sunday I really hope that Shelbourne dont get promoted as they dont derserve to.
Some decent guys playing with them, but they have 2 or 3 so called players that really let the club down.

[Sods Law]

They have been at it for years and have been let off with it. Should be interesting to see how they get on the weekend out in Knockainey after last years incident. Dont think they will go up. They will win all their home games because it is intimidating up there for any team and also the ref which is wrong.

Two to go up will be Croom and Prospect. For all the talk about Park they are just not good enough to go up.

I know Abbey are down to play the weekend but the last game they were down for they gave a walk over. Please say they havent been pulled. Hope all teams give it their all cause it will make things interesting. This weekend will tell alot.

I'd agree with the ref being intimidated out there thats a fair enough arguement. But can you or I do about it... Reffing is intimidating at the best of times.

"For all the talk" how are we just not good enough. Prospect beat us 3-2 in their place and we could have won that game had two of our best players not been injured and losing a centre half at half time. Not to mention the 35 yard screamer from the touchline on the right hand side they scored....

We play Prospect at our place soon then you can make a fair assesment....

[Sods Law]

Axe Man I will hold you to that. Prospect will beat ye they have the most improved squad since the start of the season and trainning hard.

Ye always have an excuse. Ye have at least 5 subs every game all teams are missing players every second game just get over it. With an attitude like that ye wont go far.
