Ya what Joe Browne...I mean central fox said Pearse and Greenwood are getting community pitch's.it has too be your own too play MSL which neither can afford!same goes for blarney street!! any clubs that own their pitchs and have schoolboys set up be mad too stay AUL.

id rather have a better team than a better pitch good player will play on anything.

Not springfield anyhow.i reckon aul is better after watching a few msl teams down in wanderers this year.

Is better how?
Personally I think MSL is better. Better facilities, pitches..most big MSL teams have a junior team AND a second team playing in the first division too which is a class Divison and deadly too get out of!...middelton and Fermoy both promoted last year and doing well in prem...there are some class teams AUL but outside 3r4 premier teams,2r3 prem A teams and maybe 1r2loaded teams further down the divisions the standerd isn't great!lots of thrown together teams playing on community pitchs that have glass and stones etc on them!no dressing rooms!no showers!


I'm not saying for one minute that an AUL team couldn't beat an MSL team or that AUL players aren't good enough too play MSL.what I am saying tho is MSL is the higher standerd and clubs striving too join the MSL show ambition too better them selfs in a better league!

I can see the Glen bouncing back alright but got told yesterday up in the Fairfield that they had 3 sent off against Blackstone and another 2 after the game. Any truth in this Horse / 1For??

Lads just looking at the city challenge draw,can someone explain nto me how lakewood are in this i would have taught they would be in the county cup?

look again you see dillons cross a bye into the semi ucc B lofted out they win a tie on penos with ilegal player and the aul answer is give a club a cheap place in last 4 why not give the team that lost a chance in the last 8.

the aul is laughing stock there making up there own rules as the go along dont blame teams for jumping ship too the msl !!!

[Horse24]

To be fair now - 3/4 of 30 clubs have two junior sides in MSL, and, without causing offence, the top team in first division wouldnt get near AUL first Id say

[our_ball_ref]

not a chance its macroom and park.

100% sure coachford are looking to go senior, was told this last week

Just recently in the Munster junior league division 1 they added another round of league games.

can you imagine fella,s thinking they have nothing to play for as only 1st go's up and possibly taking there foot off the gas in the process,
only to be told with a few games remaining that another round will be played??

So I would say both are guilty of making it up as they go along.

In terms of facilities and quality of pitch there's no contest,

In terms of referees same again

I realise that the refs change every year n blablabla but you would be a fool to think the aul don't possess some of the worst refs in cork.
Again there are exceptions but I'm mainly talking of the sheer number of poor quality referees in the league.
Probably more prevalent in lower divisions.

Player wise
There's players throughout aul divisions who could play in the Msl not a bother to them and I'm sure Msl teams would welcome them with open arms.

If your good enough any club will be glad to have ya.

Having experienced Msl,mjl and aul first hand I suppose it all comes down to preference for each player in what he's looking for, balancing work commitments and family.

I have to say there's something about the aul that just brings out the romantic side of soccer IMO.
The banter you get at matches I have yet to see at msl.(which i find takes itself so serious it almost sucks the fun out of the game).

Its amateur soccer at the end of the day no matter how you dress it up.




In conclusion Msl prem is the pinnacle in cork soccer though there's no doubt about it ,
If your a player with ambition that's where your ultimately aiming to get too which should worry the aul but being so far behind now its high on possible to catch up without huge investment IMO.

Where does the card and registration money go to can anyone enlighten me??

[killer"B"]

the friendly rule the best one to date the aul have simple heads running it i played a friendly a number of weeks back and had a shouting match with a ref and the little f.e.c.k.e.r got me 4 match ban and 50 bucks fine in a friendly !!! and on top of that the aul picks that biggest 4 game of the season to ban me

[oldlegs]

Why is it up to the opposition to spot ilegal players's and not the aul ??? Who have all match cards and player reg . Just a random question does anyone know the reason or thinking behind it ?

I don't know Horse, we playing Killumney last season in a friendly and beat them 2-1 easily. Now that was a long time ago and a friendly but i would say first division MSL and Premier AUL would be on par
