Limerick Division 1B 2008/09

[2legged tackle]

Hopefully the Holycross pitch is ok also as we are out there. Weather has been ok today so should be playable.

It shouldnt really matter what state the pitch is in because its an absolute joke no matter what the weather is like.

[larrywhite]

Its that bad??? Wasnt too bad last season when we were out there.

May have spoke too soon. Just after a heavy shower in Dooradoyle.

[skill school]

Im workin in newcastlewest and the rain is pelting down . Cant see our game with the view going ahead . Any report on their pitch guys .

Fairview beating Pike 1-0 in the cup at HT,penalty after a few minutes

[Ray_F50]

result bruff 2-5 caherdavin. match went ahead in the conditions pitch was ok only for the constant rain. missing 6 startin players through g.a.a and couldn't give them a decent game eventhough we went 2-1 up. sloppy defending for 3 headed goals and gave away 2 penalties. any full time score from pike v fairview?

[Ray_F50]

sorry my mistake park not caherdavin we were playing:)

Ya cracking finish too on the volley. Pike put it up to the view to be fair but kept reverting to route 1 long ball every time stewie to hanna every time hard to defend but the defence did well keeping them from getting any real clear cut chances. Pike were on top for a few mins after they equalised. The view gave away too much possession in the second half and made it hard for themselves had a couple of chances to kill the game but stewie pulled off some great saves.

[ParkLife]

Who have Caherdavin left to play? and when are they playing there last game, if they have 2 left to play??

[abbeyvale]

Who have Caherdavin left to play? and when are they playing there last game, if they have 2 left to play??

They are down as having 2 games left to play but as far as I know they were awarded a walk over for their second last game of the season (by Holycross) last week, but this is yet to be confirmed by the LDMC, hence the reason they are only down as having 20 games played and not 21 (for now).

Their last game is at home to Pike Rvs (as per fixtures above).

If Caherdavin do receive the walk over from the game v Holycross and then go on to beat Pike on Sunday morning, they will be promoted, regardless of what the other teams do around them..................

[ParkLife]

Ah I see..thanks for clearing that up. Come on the Pike ;-)

Well Gerard what did you make of the game last night ? A great game of football (well I thought anyway) ? Ye were lucky in the end ? I know Stuie pulled off 2 great saves near the end but we should have got extra time out of it. Nice to see a big crowd at it. Think ye'll go on and win it now

I thought it was a very exciting game for the crowd to watch.It was up and down at both ends.And i agree with what MESSI said.If ye had got on with the game ye might have went on to win it although we missed a few handy ones as well.Wat a goal Wesley Fitz got though and to make it worse an ex PIKE man.Murroe will be a tough one away.
Any idea if Murroe are using their new pitch down beyond their old one cos i cant see the pitch by the dressing rooms been playable.

[oscar]

no not using the new one yet

[the monk]

we were told today that the murroe pitch will be playable some of the lads been out working on it. it will be the one near the dressing rooms as the other well the less said the better

Also
Spoke to a Caherdavin man tonight and he told me they were already awarded the walk over v Holycross from last week, so if its true, then they'll be promoted if they beat Pike this Sunday.........I havent added in the above table yet though, until I get confirmation.....

[abbeyvale]

So sat nit fixtures will prob finish up the league, next weeks fixtures wont be played.

Sunday's fixtures you mean? and if what I say above is correct, wouldnt you think the LDMC let the other clubs fighting for promotion know exactly where they stand..........Surely they'll have the decision made about the walk over before this weekend's games.......................

They probably wont though knowing them.............bit of a joke really.

Murroe 1 View 0 a.e.t
What a cruel game Murroe scored the only goal of the game in the last kick of the game in extra time what a sickener just goin to penalties and the match was decided by a great strike to be fair when it fell to the striker when the ball should have been cleared.
The view can have no excuses as they had some great chances, and hitting the post 3 times story of the season really. Murroe had a couple of chances aswell but you could see that one goal was going to decide it. Ref had a shocker never left the game flow at all never witnessed so many frees. Best of luck to Murroe in the final hope ye go on to win it now.

cals beat us 1-0 last night, the ref donal power should not be left near a pitch again. stopped us playing time and time again. i think he taught he was in the english prem, bottled call after call I know he is only a new ref but what type of refs are teaching him, are they ever going to improve even a little???. I'd have takin anyones worst ref of the year over this ref. on the match cals should have been 2 up at half time there goal came from our keeper dropping the ball. we could not get into the match with the ref stopping us playing at every chance. The two cals front players were very good (lee) and another lad very fast caused us problems all evening. We had one clear cut chance at the very end in injury time but I fluffed it when it was easier to score after being put on a plate by davy wall, On the night cals just wanted it more than us it was a hard fought physical battle and had they showed that determination all season would have been challenging the league. Best of luck to cals in the cup.

i agree to a certain extent..finian was just there for the money and left park in the sh1t..in fairness to davy wall park have improved alot under him..how many of ye taught they would have been relegated earlier this year after the start they have had as it is they've been looking for promotion..but at the end of the day the players have to take the blame..no disrespect to other clubs but on paper park are the best all round team in the division..a manager can only do so much up to the players after that..

Agree with most but Park are not the best team on paper in the league. They have maybe 3 players who are good enough for most teams but unfortunately the younger lads have found out it's a different ball game at this level. Have played them a few times this season and some are way off it. Davy Wall has done a great job but time for him to move on for his own sanity, lads in Park have let him down big time from what I've heard this year. Going to be very difficult to ask the youths to stay on and play 1B when their local rivals are a division ahead or maybe even in the premier next year! Now that would spell the end of Park A!! :D
