    Look let's call a spade a spade here an not blame all the worlds woes on the Aul.

    If the Aul blockbooked an astro for an entire weekend from 6pm on Friday to 8pm on a Sunday an paid for the lot.

    You would still have the same clubs pulling strokes and complaining it's not there set time an day so there not playing , no point denying we all know I'm right.

    The teams at the top of each league will have no issues playing multiple games in quick succession , that's what big squad are for.

      Well Jason if it was made clear to each club at the start of season this is what’s happening going forward then no one can’t complain but examples need to start from the top so the Aul will need to treat every team fairly and not pick and choose what team should play and what teams won’t and point I’m making is if certain teams have Gaa matches or dinner dances they should be no favouritism what’s so ever you play same as every other team I’ll give example each club were told at start of season you were only entitle to have one free weekend I can name two clubs that are after having three already end of rant.

        Fellas getting a bit carried away on here if im honest.. need to realise it the worst season weather wise probably ever seen, you could not have predicted this not to mind block booking an astro, a lot of business league teams play in Mayfield and some aul frequently, if anybody can find an astro that can be block booked for Friday to sunday without club owning it needing it for the club who has adult/youth teams or a place like Mayfield community that will just tell the teams who play there every week they can't have it then best of luck

          A good benefit in the AUL compared to MSL is free weekends. If clubs have it in plenty of notice then I don't see a problem. But I guess one of those clubs took several and didn't start playing for weeks and then awards and dinners later was a lot.

          There are definitely off peak times that astro can be booked. Club don't seem to want to. Some of the pitches will have the same problem every year so maybe they should look at astro. MSL Premier teams using them to their benefit all the way to bottom of CBL. Cobh looks fantastic.

            Weather a side, the fixture lists every week have only been slightly better than last year which was not good! Lads giving out about teams having to play 3 times in 8 days or whatever but one look at the tables and it actually teams who have been playing their games are the ones getting punished. Harp, Greenwood B & Banteer are just examples of teams who have not had a league game fixed since weekend of 9th March. Thats just fixed, not even being called off due to weather! How are you spose to keep fellas interested with no sign of a game? At least Harp have a cup I spose but its still poor admin, Banteer should have their games completed now and let a team be done with it for the season but no sign of a game for them up to the 26th April!

              They are prioritising cups and the rest works around that the referee situation is making it very hard also.

                Spot on the season is too long not to have free weekends and with lack of refs etc you are going to have x amount of free weekends if you engage with the AUL they will help you once you do it far enough in advance.

                Astros as much as I would prefer grass will have to be used more and at different times to the regular slots.

                But this is easier said than done

                      Hope Castleview enjoy their day. A dominant campaign, well deserved.

                            Tell ye lads football aside, that Paul o sullivan shouldn't be left anywhere near a football pitch. All he does is stop the game every 2 minutes to make it about himself.
                            He speaks to players any way he likes and thinks its okay, he's a disgrace.
                            What he knows about football he could write on the back of a stamp with a permanent marker, shortage of refs is understandable but don't be getting fellas who know nothing about it to do it either.

                                Ye still haven't got over the line yet some carry on i m telling you been honest i heard few of the reds were soft reds but if you give referee a decision to make and if team is on his case he more than likely will send player off which i dont agree with but your right he does make game about himself but hes probaly one of the best in the league in my opinion i suppose social media will be quiet tonight haha
