lads did anyone read the leader newspaper today interview with mick noonan after the leader got a number of complaints about pike and fairview basicly saying they have way to many players signed and people want a squad cap on the number of players in a squad. LDMC chairman mick noonan totally disagrees susprise susprise.
agree whiteline and people wonder why the league isnt as competitive anymore..smaller clubs dont have a chance!!
everyone would agree to it but for the likes of blackjack and to be honest you can see his point of view i was only pointing out a story in the local paper that there are people even ringing the local to complain about teams. its not like i wrote the story lol
what ye think lads??
one of the authors of that article just happens to be affiliated to a club that is possibly in decline and has lost players to one of the big two...he has a gripe!..people are not ringing in to the local,these are people he meets in his local!!...players have the right to sign with whom ever they like...maybe these "small clubs" are just too small!!...maybe Fairview and Pike should start the league minus ten points and their opponents should be given a two goal start every game..haha.
are you suggesting the "smaller clubs" should throw the towel in already or are you just getting your excuses in early....get over yourself!!...Fairview and Pike are clubs with very proud histories and every other club should aspire to reach the same heights.They have both represented Limerick football tremendously over the years and should be complimented for this.Put the time wasted on here griping into your own club and maybe you'll reap the rewards.P.s...if you're a player crying about how unfair it is...then you're probably not good enough for the BIG clubs!
McDonnell isn't involved with any club in town. Hes a journalist. He hears people complaining about the big 2 and then writes about it. Thats his job as an editor, to write articles that cause debate. Maybe it isnt the right way to go about it, but when everyone spends ten months of the year saying its a two horse race and that its a joke players are willing to spend the season sitting on the bench with the odd appearance when their olds clubs could use them,then why not write a story about it?
There's no harm in it.Thats his opinion. Its strange that its the big clubs who are kicking up a fuss about it while all the "smaller" clubs dont seem to have as much of a problem with it
your aggroance really is shocking towards other clubs so your basicly saying outside pike and fairview every other club is small. THE BIG TWO LOL jesus. didnt balla win the lawson last season beaten a massive club pike are they small?.
IMO the prob with alot of clubs all over the county and city is why players are joining these clubs calling other clubs small is just small minded to be honest the only way these clubs are small towards the other two is because of there resources if your going by that than yes every club is very small signing players from LOI football to play junior its wrong if these clubs are able to sign LOI players than they should they take a step up for a few seasons and play LOI football championship A and see how they get on. lets be honest here lads the top two play only two games worth talking about and thats against each other.
lads its a debate not a slagging match
Talk football lads,keep gossip & inflamatory crap for facebook or somewhere else,it's not happening here.
go back through your posts,your'e the very one who called the rest of the club's small,that the league was between pike and fairview.don't go looking for cover now.all those player's you speak about(loi) were all junior player's before they went loi.obviously didn't like it or in some cases didn't make it,so snap out of it.you obviously hate pike and fairview so just keep it to yourself,your'e starting to bore a lot of people now.
a few more days and its all starting again ;)
is there many if any teams that will susprise a few teams
ill go for mungret heard they have done well in pre season and signed some lovely players
heard pat mcgarry signed with fairview.
ya mcgarry signed for view.. perhaps he was taken off the pike payroll an deceided it was time to win an FAI. Good thinking Pa.. view have a serious centre halving partnership this year imo...an their attacking options aint to shabby either..
Heard Jossi Guerin scored for St.Michaels tonight in their 4 2 win.
the differance between pike/fairview and the rest of the teams is the rest of the teams are not as wealthy as pike or fairview and that is what it all boils down too
Not neccesarily wealth skyguy..granted to a certain extent wealthier clubs can provide players with better training facilities such as an astro-turf or proper dressing rooms but when it comes down to building a team wealth is not wats gonna attract a player to a club( unless perhaps ur on the Pike Rovers Brown Envelope Payroll, PRBEP). The best players in town are naturally going to want to play with the best teams in town so they can win on a national level..its not about money, unless ur playing with pike lol, its about playing with a nationally renowned junior team where you can win medals... and i mean no disrespect to any teams with regards to that but its how i see it..
i dont think the view would be overly worried about losing to pike on a local leve as long as they are winning Munster Junior and FAI cups to be honest.. Van Persie I wont name names but is nt it funny how 2 players i am aware of had signed for Balla and Fairview and then changed their mind and signed for Pike...
Will be tough if killmallock can field a full team. Heard they may be missing a few due to hurling. Have to say I think its sad to see what is happening at the boro. Big club, will take them a while to get over this they'll rebuild and will be back though. And fairview not minding Pike beating them, come on bud in fairness. Fairview won't win the league this year they don't have the attitude to win like Pike have. Fairview only want to play in big games and get intimidated by pike in my opinion. Balla this year, we'll hold our own. young quinn could be a good signing.
"And fairview not minding Pike beating them, come on bud in fairness. Fairview won't win the league this year they don't have the attitude to win like Pike have".. Firstly people arent understanding what i am saying..Of course Fairview dont like losing to Pike- they are their biggest rivals in junior football..However I am saying that as long as Fairview are winning FAI and Munster Junior Cups they ll get over it.....Secondly Fairview not having the attitude to win like Pike have???? I recall great winning attitude when Pike played Carrick in last seasons Munster Junior at Jackman (Sarcasm).. I think that comment was to get a rise lol...
