you mean mungret v pike:)

have to say that if balla perform anyway like they did in the pike field last year when the hammered pike to win the league then they should dispose of pike easily.
after all the last two matches when these teams have met have been won comfortably by balla both times !

Well considering last season pike hadn't played a league match for 6 weeks before they met balla in the 'decider' , and this season in bateman pike were 1-0 up and cruising for the majority of the match only to concede late in the game, also that is the only loss pike have suffered all season and no draws!!

Should be a cracking game as both teams are by far the best in limerick:)

Pike will win though

Star to be Limericks only team left in the quartar finals......how much are they in the bookies?

lets not get ahead of yourself- its only the last 64 (5 matches away from the final).i fancy only Carew Pk,Pike Rvs and UL Aisling to reach the last 32 stage after Christmas.

I must say i think star could do well...once you get out of town you always have a chance and star have a pretty good panel there...Some of them a bit to cocky though..Would like to still see them do well though...Only thing is it will interfere with there league matchs and they are already behind by about 3-4 games so this will only make it worse...they will be left with a fixture problem at the end and will probably do a granville and a balla on it then,,,,Still ongoing problems with fixtures in the ldmc!!!

Last season pike played regional the week before they played balla and had cup games before that
this season balla beat pike 2 - 1 with all goals scored in the first half so pike cruising i think not.

balla won the last 2 matches but pike won the 3 before that all those matches there was only a goal in it before that balla had the biggest win in years 7 - 2 in the touhy cup

too close to call

Explain - will probably do a Granville and Balla on it then Still ongoing problems with fixtures in the ldmc!!!
I looked the tables last week and Balla have nine games played and Granvile have 11 played.
What are you trying to say ? please let us know......... I think you might be tyring to say there is favouritism being shown to clubs in the town. Are you going to name names ??

He's not talking about this season. When Balla won the league and when Granville got promoted, they had loads of games in hand come the end of the season. They had to play about 10 games (at least 2 a week) with the majority against teams who had nothing to play as most promotion / relegation issues involved about 2 teams.

Cheers SM

Is there something going on between the two of ye????????????

very little talk about the big game sunday, Pike V Balla in the FAI....Come on Balla

thats cos the two lads above are to busy flirting with each other.i hope its balla but i think it will be pike...

Just heard colm enright (work), dara droog( wedding) and declan considine (**** up) are out for sunday big blow for pike

pike have sniffer back only players missing droog+a grady susspened should not be a problem thou

IMO i cant see any other result than a pike win. i was watching balla last week and there two centre halfs have no pace what so ever and with the pace pike have they could cause alot of probs for balla. IMO if i was them id play a sweeper if ye play a flat back four yer gone and who ever was at the game last sunday you know what im talking about. balla were lucky not to be down to ten or even nine men at half time for pro foul on frankie with his pace getting in behind ye every time. gook luck for sunday

Balla always raise their game for Pike like if it is a derby,theres a fierce stick between the teams on the field i can remember a brawl between the two afew seasons back and with alot at stake sunday expect fireworks......

balla have a few headless chickens, you couldn't count the amount of times balla have gotten a player sent off in this tie. Mark Gough refereeing the match sunday, he won't be intimated by balla as he's proven in the past

If gough is the ref then u can gaurantee that a Balla player will be sent off. Everytime he refs one of their matches he sends one of them off.

They have had these 2 centre halfs for last 2 or 3 seasons and pike have never really caused them too many problems. They are slow but Pike never really punished this in the last couple of meetings.

Ref's get paid enough, if you pay somebody to do a job and you think that they are not doing it correctly, can you not question their competence......Nice measuring tape 2.7yrds....

Has Ian signed for the Boro

pike over the last 3 or 4 years have always had the better of balla

Even though Balla won the league the last 2 years and beat pike on the last day of the season in both years

ya :p

Great result for Pike. Nicked it late with a winner with about 4 mins to go. Thought they totally deserved the win. Hopefully they will have learned from last years mistakes because they easily represent the best chance a Limerick side has of winning the thing now.
