That’s an outstanding result, they have a real claim to being the best junior side in the entire country
Coachford are are a quality side over last 2/3 seasons are are getting the rewards they deserve, probably the best team I've played against in terms of quality and depth in squad, in my opinion certainly better than the leesside squad that won cup in 2009. Just my opinion lads that's all
Credit where its due. A well run club with a lot of buy in from the local community.
You could be right, you have to keep in mind most of their best players are under 25, probably haven’t even hit their prime yet.
Both Murphy’s, Cialan, Casey all 25 or younger. That’s a frightening thought for the rest of not only the AUL but the likes of villa, pike, Michaels etc in the Munster and fai cups
The biggest thing I think is themselves and the gaa club actively work together and they are both reaping the rewardsQuote:

This makes the victory yesterday incredible and looking at the FAI App they were missing 5 players that started the Munster junior Cup Final
Steve as I said yesterday excellent results but don’t going on about players missing it’s about the squad ye have players will be missing all year so theses lads need to step up think ye will thump Knocka next week to and then ye can concentrate on semi
I don’t know everything boy I only know which teams will be rubbish and which players or frauds I leave all the other knowledge up to you
knocka and village are 2 fine clubs and will surprise a few in cupsQuote:

Surprise who they’ll all fall to coachford so beating each other is not surprising lads
Ok season hasn’t started yet and I’m off but I’m going to let Paul and Martin have free pass this time but if I hear of this carry on once more this season they’ll be blue murder a very very reliable source never new he was talking to Harsh and let slip Knocka v Coachford was suppose to be sat but nemo v Coachford AFC sat 4.30 favours kicking in already hahahaha
Predictions for the Season lads leagues only(don`t include your own team as we all think we will win) :
Prem: 1st Coachford 2nd Donoughmore
Prem A : 1st Springfield 2nd Glenthorn A
Div 1: 1st Grattan B 2nd Corkbeg
Div 2: 1st Coachford B 2nd Harp Celtic
Div 3: 1st Hibernians B 2nd Sullane
To be fair i`ve only seen 4 of these teams in the last month and am going off various reports etc.
Hearing village have pulled off a very very very good signing for midfield, a lad at mayfield senior last year who done very well, a lad Gibson
They really should have entered a B team because that squad must be 40 at least going off the Facebook posts
They’ll have to invest in new dressing room serious note tho think Lenny will need to start looking at squad tho some of lads I signed and told facebook that their brilliant footballers might not even get kick of a ball first few games looking back at players they signed at least 7 or midfielders is it case of quantity over quality
Bit hassle in Grattan ?got beatin by there b team
It’s the only premier fixture in the first lot of fixtures so you can make arguments of favours for any other team without a fixture. Don’t see the panic with leagues starting there’s 14 games, no FAI Cup Cork rounds till Feb so that frees up extra weekends this side of Christmas. Mossie is still knockout better off getting Div 2/3 played first 4/5 games while the weekday games are available only my opinion on the fixtures in generalQuote:

Didn’t witness any trouble only got first half
Lads why is anyone taking any notice of pre season friendlies. A result in pre season means F all. Best of luck to everyone in the new season and let’s keep it on here PG
Prem: coachford knockaQuote:

Goal I would totally agree with you friendly only for mins in the legs but in this case I think this plan might have back fired for Grattan A they sorted this game against their B team cause they had 1.or 2 new players coming up for a look to see would they sign to get spanked by your second team won’t stand well to um for me talking to two lads from B team in work they confirmed there was few slaps throwing ref removed player from each team for me I think after that Grattan A could lose more players and the B players might have to stand up again quicker than people thought watch this space
Is there some noise around castle view lads heard a couple of different storys... can anyone confirm if the rumours are true... cant imagine a big club like them who got a huge money from the aul not have a team in the aul come christmas
My reliable source have told me the A team will be there if the can pick up few points first few games few players gone so Is they struggling early doors few more will follow as I said last week looks like castleview have just giving up on B team if they stay or go club won’t care so my prediction is as follow
Coachford 1st
And the other 7 teams will fight for 2nd and relegation they’ll all beat each other
With View and Grattan in spot of bother I wonder will both teams not play again next week if so not fair on rest of teams in league so far Ucc and city wanderers not back till late sept
They might not scrape a team between them come the start of the season... knocknaheeny celtic could finish above them both...that's there aim for the season. no team is getting near coachford...here we go fc for second againQuote:

And why don’t you think thatQuote:

Both teams were rumoured to be strong but IF the app is to be believed both beaten tonight with Greenwood thumping the B team.
Greenwood seem to have a few ex city wanderers players that would be really strong for Div 3
I was told the 2 older ones but don’t quote meQuote:

This will be the only time I'll agree with you Harsh ref, a squad of 18 is probably the right number to have and im a part of the set up up here in village but that's way to many and there is another 1/2 players on the way in, gonna be impossible to keep them all happy unfortunately and we as a club asked the aul to enter in a B team but we're knocked back from the aul.Quote:
