Think I heard on the radio that all matches were called off

im sorry now buddy but that makes no sense what you just said not every team warms up for an hour before a match if the lish lads only wanted to do ten mins so be it also they had a full team so i cant see your point sure were used to the cold in the country lad :) and somehow i dont think they were afraid or itimidated by ye just stayed warm with clothes on:p
lish had no reason to want the match off why would they ??? drinking did you meet them ref said the pitch was unplayable full stop i walked it and it was fairly solid
I wont say who i was talking to but am i right about 5 of your lads out ? Your right it was fairly solid and the right decision was made by the ref. But pike went up to the top and were able soften up the top goal mouth your boys didnt even try on the other goal mouth. We are frustrated 4th match called off over no ref or a frozen pitch since xmas we think the match could of went ahead if was really that bad why did the ref give it an extra half hour and ye didnt try to get it to go ahead either.Fair play to ye in a way, Ye got what ye wanted.....
think what you may but safety of players is the priorority and as i said the ref not the lish called off the game we still have to meet so hopefully safe conditions on that day.. on the drinking matter i cant account for every single player but we havnt had that problem all season

lads... so what if the caherconlish boys were out on the town ona saturday night, they still turned up sunday morning, just because there not sad enough to stay in every saturday night at their age and with the weather so unpredictable doesnt mean they want the game to be called off. Its sunday league lads, were not playing and are never going to be playing in england or anything like that, its about having a laugh with your mates and a game off soccer ona sunday morning. And if a pitch is frozen and they dont want to risk getting injured. so what, and jus because they dont warm up for an hour before the game, like most teams dont. apart from pike, its served them well so far to get to where they are now dont you think. Like pike lads, you win your games in hand your only a point better off, and thats with caherconlish out onda sauce and not warming up for an hour beforehand, so explain the benefit of this?? Soo smyths n icon next saturday or angel lane lads?
We only warming up for an hour over the ref he put the match back a half hour to make the game go ahead at least he tried to get the game to go ahead.And by the way i was wrecked after the warm up SAMBUCA and sunday morning dont go well. Anyway my hangover is gone just like the lish boys so im over it, But i will see ye again in Angel Lane next sat night im sick of the Icon i say the boys are as well.
maybe we shud all organise a 1B mystery tour as end of season, haha, there is generally good sportsmanship between all the teams :P :P and yeh, icons boring now lads.
me too

suprised al matches went ahead.. bruff came back from 2-0 down to get it back level but then conceded straight away then had a player sent off good fast paced match the sending off def contributed to final score taking nothing away from cappa they took there chances well..and ref had a great game wouldnt mind getting him for all our remaining matches :)
any other matches go ahead
Good game and the pitch kept up very well down there in Bilboa. We started the game good and after 2mins 'fitz' was played through but keeper saved and it fell to 'duggy' to tap in. 5 mins later a 'mcloughlin' cross found 'lane' to fire home to the roof of the net. Fair play to bruff they fought back and they got a goal when a cross escaped both keeper and full back for a tap in. Half Time cappa 2 bruff 1. Second half started and bruff got a goal after 10 mins. This goal was very scrappy but well taken by the visiting team. It hit one post came out, kepper saved next shot, another shot came off the post before it found the back of the net. Game now at 2-2 and all to play for. We responded and got a deserved penalty when 'fitz' was taken down. 'Mcloughlin' stepped up and put the keeper the wrong way. 3-2 now but bruff came at us again and played some nice football but this meant they were getting numbers up and a break from 'ryan' put 'duggy' through and he found the back of the net to bag his brace. The ref had a good game and issued the bruff lad with his second yellow 15 mins to go. As 'bruffunited' said I would like to get this ref again for the rest of the season.....but everyone make sure to get back when a free kick is given and not to hit away the ball as he will have no problem issueing a yellow as he did many times to day. Credit to bruff for good clean fast match. Hopefully that will see us at the top of the table for the weekend.
Any other scores from other matches?
cals 1-5 knockainy any other scores
Cals in big trouble......Knock could have scored 9 or 10 today, must have missed 3 or 4 open goals. Was watching game and although Cals lads put in effort, totally out of their depth. Showed nothing up front, back 4 ran ragged and goalkeeper not up to much either. Can't see them picking up many more points. I know that most of their team is their current B team, but couldn't believe it when I heard Cals Manager say, "Never mind lads, we are only a division 4 team, we have big games in our own league ahead." Are these lads playing division 4 games as well on a Sunday? If so, surely the priority is to try to keep the club in 1b and not worry about getting promotion from Division 4??
Why would staying in 1B be any more important than getting promoted? Those lads with the B team worked hard to challenge in division 4 and are well on course to try get promoted so i think that should be their priority, not trying to make up for players walking out on the club in 1B.
how many and who exactly have cals lost from the Bteam?? when they had their full team all year they werent up to much either. did they have any players good enough in the first place? it looks as tho they are certs to go down...surely the clubs priority is to compete in the highest division possible so i think it is more important to avoid the drop rather than get promoted from div 4!!
Surely staying 1b is a greater priority than getting promoted to Division 3. As far as I am aware, (I might be wrong) there are only 3 of the original A team left. Ger Thompson up front, Ralph Marsh at centre back and the keeper who I think is an actual centre back.
Fair enough it may be more important to the "club" to stay up in 1B but the B players themselves have a good chance at winning a cup or getting promoted from division 4 so i don't see why they should have to give this up for the sake of the A team. I don't want to talk too much for the Cals B players because i don't know how they look at it but i'm sure they started the season with the B team and i'm sure they had goals themselves of what they wanted to try achieve in Division 4 and now they have to sacrifice that because players have walked out on the A team for whatever reason. Harsh on them if you ask me.

I agree with you GK. As I said earlier, you can't knock the lads who are playing for effort and committment. They are just out of their depth, but it seems to me are expected to compete in 2 divisions at the same time!!!! What I am saying is that a decision needs to be made here, they either just play in 1b or they play in division 4 because what will happen is that with the amount of games ye are expected to play ye'll end up being relegated in 1b and not getting a thing in division 4. A decision needs to be made here and if I was involved with the committe I know I would want the club to stay in 1b.
