id have rathuard in the top 3 its always in a fantastic condition and balla have used LIT this season which would make hogan park (ex EL pitch) the worst in the league

[paddy angelo]

portland was not once unplayable this season,, it's no fairgreen pike or boro
but the days of portland being a marsh are long gone, even so thats no excuse
for wanting to see us relegated, if you hate the club say it at least that way
you're being honest

summerville and balla in the lawson cup was called off over there pitch was unplayable according to the ref :confused:

[blinkx]

Aint played out in bateman this year out in lit yea, can only comment on what ive seen as for summerville no i dont hate ye get over yourself bud handy six points thats all i think of summerville

Did they not play Pike and Regional out in Bateman at the start of the year,almost positive they did.

[mulla]

Did they not play Pike and Regional out in Bateman at the start of the year,almost positive they did.

played there at the start of the season till the damage to the pitch i think,but moved to lit since then and with balla supposedly gettin a pitch in shelbourne park i don't think the a team will be back in batemen

[allab]

LIT pitch wasnt open for the first few games while the students were away,think it was carew and pike out there in the first 2 matches

ya the pitch was damaged by a stolen car,rumour has it the car is still goosed

Did you come up with that one on your own then?

[Fairkop]

At this stage it is a complete farce, God be good to Paddy Cusack, he would never have allowed this shambles to happen. LDMC and their chairman are a disgrace, no other league in the world would have been finished like our one. Time to get rid of the dinasours me thinks.do you have regular memory lapses or what.in the not too distant past you were comparing PC with a corupt politician...:rolleyes:only one dinasour here me thinks.the premier league has often finished...in a shambolic fashion....aka fairview some years ago having 7 games left while their nearest rivals bar one had all their fixtures completed.

[abbeyvale]

well done to pike on winning the league.well deserved. the relegation battle will be interesting now.i personally cant see balla goin all out in the summerville or corbally games.the relegation battle far from over yet.in saying that though what an utter shambles.i heard iits going to drag out another week or 2.that will bring us into july.and it also makes it around 6 weeks since star,boro,aisling,and carew played.you can throw corbally into that also.think it was about a month ago at this stage when they played star?abbeyvale or starman might be able to confirm that for me.Somrthing has to be seriosly done next season about the fixture nightmare



Sunday 18th May was Star and Corbally's last game in the league.

Please re-post where I compared PC to a corupt politician.

Portland was unplayable twice this year against Balla or was it ye just wanted the game off !

[no17 fan]

Portland was unplayable twice this year against Balla or was it ye just wanted the game off !

the only time matches were off is when all the matches in town were called off by the ldmc,,

Haa, as is the up keep of Hogan Park.

[timmy]

wembley player got 12 months i hear. anyone else hear this or at the meeting last night.
Whats the story can they appeal cause im sure wembley will if they can.

[whitestripe]

what did he do to get 12 months?

[Centrehalf]

Yeah heard that alright referee's report completely slated the player, 12 months for assaulting a referee. Wembley can appeal to Munster Council and to the FAI if they so wish, but doubt they will gat any leniency as most bodies will go on referees report

[timmy]

ya heard that too. the referees report was a lot worse than the reality of the situation. not defending the player one bit but report was extremely exaggerated having watched the match and read most of the refs report.
seamus mulcahy?? I think is the player. wont be available to play til august 09.
ya agree too they re prob wasting there time appealing.

[dalegend]

Bourke was reffin the match yea?? Can imagine the report "he came tearing at me eyes wild with anger hands as big as shovels someone grabbed the ak47 off him only for that i'd surley be dead" I aint
ref bashing but he's a muppet

I'd have to agree here.i know there aren't that many refs in town but this guy is the pits.he can NEVER keep up with the play and some of the decisions he makes are crazy and sometime you can't blame a player for losing the rag.Or the mangers for that matter!

[lionelhutz]

honestly, those last two posts are so ridiculous... whether a ref can keep up with play or not!! - what has that got to do with a player who abused and pushed a ref... the two of ye are clowns, simple as that... and its sh*te talk like that that will keep refs getting abused week in week out....
not back to hiding behind yer keyboards, ye girls..

WOOOO calling people girls nd clowns nd hiding behind keyboards eh!!! name yourself big man i'll talk to you face to face no bother then we wont be hiding behind keyboards ha ha, heres one for you i wish it was me that done it long ago. Refs get abused cause they dont know the difference between a HAND nd a LEG

The reason why this ref probably got the abuse is maybe because he has made so manyt bad decisions in his time against players that they just had enough and lost it.I know myself how frustrating it is when a ref goes against you and how hard it is to compose yourself not to do something!Standard of refs in this town is a disgrace and its as simple as that!

And the standard of abuse we get from some players and management in this town, is disgraceful. SIMPLE as that!!!!!

Take one example i experienced, Refereein this year.

Situation Team taking Goal Kick, Team B defenders are all up at the Half way Line, Leaving Team A striker in the opposition half twenty yards behind the last defender.

Team A Goalkeeper takes goal kick and as soon as they do Team B shout offside, the ball goes straight to the Striker who then heads to goals and scores.

Team B players come running to me start asking(well more shouting) why he wasn't offside and i say you cant be offside from a goal kick.

They start calling me a Bleep Bleep disgrace and i have just made up a rule, the management start abusing me from the side line saying what bleep bleep rule is that never heard of that one before, this went on for at least 5-10 mins.

So what a surprise actually some players in this town who don't know the rules... never thought that was possible :rolleyes:
