Also owngoal with the new manager involved he mightn't avert to the long ball style of play...he might try and change it to a passing game and i am goosed then...1st touch of a rapist!! and the 2nd touch ain't far behind :D


mike,

1st touch of a rapist!! your second touch is a tackle.
you control the ball further than i can kick it.ha ha

The Limerick Independant yesterday said the season starts the weekend of August 17

Very early, considering how long last season went on for...

Does anyone think this season will be an improvement on last years shambles?

Hows Stars training going abbey/starbar?

[Dines]

The Limerick Independant yesterday said the season starts the weekend of August 17

Season not due to start until the W/E 24th of August

[svillerovers]

Yes the weekend of the 24th is what i heard as well.
With regard this year we will just have to see how the new fixture secretary does..I am sure if Mike has gotten some feedback from clubs he will do what he can to get as many games played as possible with common sense prevailing in most cases!! I seen from one of the premier threads that they might be playing one of the cups under lights which might help...Very good idea if you ask me! Maybe if they can play all cup games under lights it would be great but i don't think there are many facils around that would cater for that...Would teams consider playing there cup games on astro turf i wonder?

[Lev Yashin]

we are back 2 weeks,first week had 2 handy sessions,last week had 2 sessions and a game and this week 2 games,we are playing kennedy park tonight,only problen i find is we have so many lads turning up you only get about 45 minutes of a match

That can be a problem with preseason friendlies alrite when the manager needs to look at as many players as possible and ouy only play half a game. The fitness takes longer to build up.

Are your training sessions hard physical running??

star beaten by shannon olympic last night in a friendly, 1-0
bot teams played badly

[dared]

How are things looking down there starbar?

[papa-j]

thats the nature of friendly games, you need to get players familiar with each other and find out your formations. Olympic were much more solid v Star as the score suggests. Dind't hand them a 3-0 lead after 10mins like v Corbally:rolleyes:

[razbar]

You have to know the right people;);)dont know about all the divisions but i'd say the 1st week is done

[dared]

Sorry papa tat wasnt a swipe at ye ... i was trying to wind up my star buddie.... :D to be honest i dont think score line was a fair reflection of the match....

[quote=abbeyvale;975631]

haha only to see the missus.......;).. so you never know may be under pressure, did you hear the dines are looking for some former experienced players surely you'd fit the bill........ maybe not the jersey but definately the bill:D:D


did you sign for star for a finish graham?, tough enough start to the season, at least ye are home for it!!!

[Begrudger]

any new developements down in portland?? was told only twenty mins ago that all the players that said they were leaving have had a change of heart, and a few phone calls from eddie clancy!!

bar cian hunt whos rubbish anyway, ye'l have the same team training tues nite with a few new ones signing??? any truth s ville??

Thats a bit harsh to be namin players and callin them rubbish I don,t think hes on the site to defend himself.
As for summerville big changes down there and from what i hear a few phone calls wont change these guys minds, Bobby o brien is an experienced manager and he could have a few players up his sleeve time will tell id say more likely mid table than relegated but without mona colin shine not much height and cyril daz and ian all huge losses :o:confused::mad:

have not signed with anyone might take a back seat. not any different to the way things are anyways hahaha. i'd play most away games to be honest first makes things easier in the new year in your incontention but hill celtic will be hard enough with skinner in control

Hows Stars training going abbey/starbar?

Star's training is going well, and to date have only lost one player (Pa Barry), from last season, and who the manager is still trying to convince to stay on.

[abbeyvale]

Tat is bad.... we beat them 5-1 last tues and to be honest could have been more but for some bad finishing...

Star played Tuesday night and 4 or 5 of that starting line up were carrying injuries so were rested for the Shannon Olympic game on Thursday.

I heard Star should have hammered them though......

[abbeyvale]

should have hammered them but lost 1 nil....makes sense

I was told that Star missed at least 5 or 6 very good chances and should have won the game easy.

[old git]

thats football i was told olympic missed a few chances too..

only score really matters at final whistle and olympic won 1-0 so end of story ye get nothing for missed chances .. only stick of the manager :D

[dared]

thats good as long as it doesnt turn out like last season for ye and the whole trainin fiasco!!

[dared]

I dont think that'll be the case this year... basically last year there wasnt competion in the squad so players could do what they wanted... thats why its important to get new faces in,which im happy to say is happening...

[Philbert]

We've 4 new faces(all good soild premier players) signed and hoping to sign 2 more over the next week... we dont wana be doing a fairview on it either and signing 30 players... :D we wish....

Who would these four new players be? did any of the boro lads sign back for a finish?

[gaidin]

Maybe he did sign a form with him. It wouldnt be the first time a player signed 2 forms.

Im just speculating here now, not saying he has signed a form with Aishling.

[dared]

Id be very surprised if he did that.. he's not the type... i think someone in aisling is pulling at straws... he even took at training session with us last nite... does tat sound like a player ready to walk out the door....?
