Bunratty B need to get John Liddane fit and back playing ball for them if they are going to be serious contenders to Newmarket B for the title

fully agree with u vidic-class, but he signed for olympic B...were fightin our case with the transfer form but their club official wont let him go maybe we should take a leaf out of corofins book!!:D:D

Didnt think that a club could stop a player transferring unless he's owes some unpaid fees?Didnt something similar happen between Rineanna nd Newmarket at the start of the season

Yeah any away win is good so delighted with yesterday. Led 2-0 at ht and 2 goals early in the 2nd half finished it.

Newmarket still have game in hand though and only 1 behind.

Tough one coming against Harps Sunday. They seem to have hit a good run in the last few games.

Yeah they were ay too good for everyone last year in fairness to them.

Our stand in keeper saved a penalty too. It was 4-0 at the time though.

Supposed to rain tomorrow and Sunday so that should soften pitchs up??Matches should go ahead i'd say.Some good matches in the Premier.Bridge Celtic vs Lifford Bridge Utd A vs Bunratty

Lads the thread is gone very quiet.whats going on? surely theres plenty to speak about after the weekends games?
<Bunratty are more than holding their own and getting some good results.Am i right in saying that leagues are won at the beginning of the season (summer) when clubs are without GAA players and after xmas when the weather is poor. The rats have done very well in both categories.
<Bridge celtic are dark horses prob need a ew results to go their way. >Lifford are hot and cold.good footballing team but dont seem to hold out the distance.
>Newmarket have lost too many games and after winning last year is their any hunger in the ageing team?
as for ourselves no games yet after xmas so hard to tell but happy with the progress so far. I think if we win on sunday we could seriously challenge Bunratty but they are in the best position which i cant see them messing up.

lets get the thread going again

not correct.. newtown f.c were disbanded after the end of last season with very strong rumours of amalgamation with park rangers !! which at the moment does not seem to exsist if amalgamation had taken place park or the new club would have been forced to play their football in the clare league..( munster / fai rule )the clare league had been keeping a close watch on this situation.. park rangers have benefited with a lot of ex newtown players now playing for them but bunratty fc & shannon olympic also picked up some of these ex newtown players... this issue has been mentioned before on this thread and if ye want to check back i'm sure it may be explained betetr ;)

in what way have they benifited with them...mid table in 3rd division in limerick..should never have happened..bring back the newtown:ball:

division 1 b in limerick ( techically 3rd division) but maybee without influx of new players park could have been in more serious trouble all the talk seems to be based on the future for park only time will tell .. who knows .. bring back newtown . sad to see 30 years of a clubs history gone in one season :mad: but cannot really see how newtown could make a comeback... check out website on www.parkafc.com.. even the last remaining piece of newtown history the ladies team now seem's to have been removed and park afc are now running a ladies team... !! having seen park A play a few times this season some may already say they already had a few ladies playing :D

NEWTOWN HAVE FOLDED 7th July 2008
The Clare League are very disappointed that Newtown have informed us this morning that they have withdrawn all teams from our League. We have done everything possible to keep them in our League over the last number of months. The club have told us that they can no longer get people to help out with managing teams in their club and have no option but to fold. From what we have been told most of their players are staying in the Clare League and this should ensure that some of the existing teams in our League are stronger for next season. Shannon Olympic are entering a youths team next season which should also help keep the younger players playing in the Clare League. If any player that played with Newtown last season needs help finding a new club for next season then contact the League Secretary Oliver Fitzpatrick on 086-8455373 or oliver@claresoccer.net. :ball:

Manager resigned after they got a hammering against Corofin alright...I believev Murty Joe is after getting involved with them now...Don't think they have had a game since before the christmas due to the games being called off over the weather.....


What is the story with Ballycasey if Newtown have folded, it would be an awful shame if iut was idle as they had a great set up there.....

13/01/2009, 1:49 PM
newtown ladies using it and cratloe celtic rent it for home games


With the weather being so bad Park AFC use both grounds for all teams. We the A-team have used 3 pitches this year, Riversides first pitch and Ballycaseys 1st and 3rd pitches. All depends on amount of home fixtures in any given weekend. With the School Boys playing on Saturdays and Junior Teams under 18s and up playing on Sundays its up to grounds man Willie to decide who plays on what pitch, but the weather also has a big say in it.

Well they have 6 at the moment, if its the Main pitch you on about at Riverside then its Probably 1 of the best pitch's in Shannon apart from the Wolf Tones Camogie pitch (unreal). Thing is its kinda the same as Ballycaseys first pitch in that it doesn't take much rain for it to cut up.

i know it is of the thread but is the camogie pitch that good ... is it in between olympics pitch and biggest waste of money ever the all weather pitch... if so they must have done some job as this pitch was terrible and flooded very easily :ball:

Used the Camogie pitch to do Kick Start 1 Course few months back, lashing rain and it was in perfect nick. It really is top class and its always playable.
Nice club house aswell.

Hi All,
Olympic had a shed burnt down last weekend and it contained some pitch equipment, which was destroyed.

Would anyone have a pitch liner that they do not use anymore?
I am looking for the old style bucket liner that uses Lime and water?

If you have any ideas where to get one can you p.m me please. cheers.
Oh and can someone donate some grass for our pitch also!

Presume he is referring to Bridge United. B team have beaten A team in a few light hearted friendlies over the last few years in the astro turf. Both sides are fairly balanced with the view to competing well in the Prem and 1st divisions. Both managers have a good relationship so no grieve or aggro between squads. B team definitely capable of challenging most teams on their day, They ran Lifford close in the Munster Junior this year and Lifford comfortably beat our A side.
Just saw the cup draw there....wow looks like there will be a potential chance that those "light-hearted" friendlies could become the real thing...so there will be finally as set in stone result of the question which is the better Bridge team... I see from the clare website that both team won their respective divisons so it really will be a interesting match. Although thats provided the Bridge B's beat NOF Celtic B's( are they any good?)
