I'm sure Saints will now try to sign a top goalscorer to replace Alan, but are there any of his class around. I don't think so...Quote:

he might not have had the best of spells in tipp but Alans record in limerick speaks for itself,a fine footballer who no doubt will prove all his critics wrong in the future
ya moroney would be a good signing. dont fancy any of the rest to do it when it matters,perhaps kennedyQuote:

doubt it very much that he has 20 goals, unless he has scored a good few against the weaker sides. saw him twice against town and once against saints this year and he figured little. not a top two player.
i think hes probably his own worse enemy ron in terms of his attitude and behaviour.....he certainly doesnt endear himself to anyone down here but i have said it here before i do think he is a very good player and probably gets 20 every year but people struggle to discuss him objectively but thats down to his own doing...i e mailed the tsdl site for confirmation on goals...i think moroney and kennedy at saints would be interesting partnership...contrasting styles...aoron holds the ball up excellently and paul likes to run in behind
ah hes a decent junior player alright, and thats being objective. i dont really know much about his attitude or character, i leave tha sort of judgement to the younger lads that can still play the game. just think peake have better players is all. and i honestly think moroney hasnt played well in years, very easy score when your team is hammering everyoneQuote:

from matches i have been at i have always thought his attitude to opponents and people on the line was needless and it takes away from the fact he is one of their better players....yeah i agree about mick ryan amd also i think the centre half leahy is excellent...if they are to sneak the league these guys will need to perform....getting o connor back should also be a perogative....i disagree about moroney i think he is the best because he scores all types of goals and does it consistently
Is Mick Ryan the left winger at Villa???Quote:

On his day lads Alan Coady is as good as any junior soccer centre forward in the country,he has it all power,pace,good in air,with both feet and up to this season has been regularly scoring 20+ goals a season,with a different attitude towards training and mentors he could have gone a long way..
lads Coady was a great player but for the last 2 seasons he hasn't really been around. His best days are behind him but agreed on his day he was top drawerQuote:

what is the hold up with the transfer?Quote:

17 Goals - are they all in the league? Who is second in the charts? how many did Barry score for ye?Quote:

hmm seems to me hooper is a little obsessed with proving barry ryan is top scorer in the league. very strange from a so called saints fan. i smell a rat
my thoughts exactly.................a red and black ratQuote:

what i was trying to prove was alan barry had not scored the goals in tipp he had managed in limerick..
and what has that got to do with Barry Ryan?
.both of you guys are however obsessed with knocking him....
Where have I ever knocked Alan Barry? I rate him highly, and he would not be an international if wasn't a top class striker?....please think before you post accusations....if anybody is obsessed its you....with Barry Ryan. I'd be worried if I were him....
it wasnt alan i was accusing you of knocking.....to be fair it was alan i was knocking....in terms of personality and attitude i think alan barry seems like a top bloke i just felt he never delivered the goals people in limerick were talking about...however i would not be surprised to see him do this back in limerick....and i was by no means heaping praise on barry ryan ....he just happens to lead the charts at the moment and by the sounds of den and ron he will need to score a hell of a lot more goals than 17 to get any recognition here:) now back to football......town into last 16 of fai...its wide open can they win it? can villa sneak the league...i think the games in oldbridge and bansha are huge today....villa play at 3 so will know the saints result...it might be a big incentive as bansha will be strong this morning as they will have the gaa boys
I have just watched the worst display I can remember from a Referee in Celtic Park BANSHA. It says a lot when players from both teams ie; Bansha and St Michael's had to be restrained at the end of the game. From a Bansha view he gave a terrible decision for a penalty to saints with 2 minutes of normal time to go. then to top that with saints waiting to take a corner and the Bansha keeper down getting treatment he decided to blow for full time and you wait and see it will be Bansha and Saints who will get in trouble from the league not this incompetent referee ( John Lyons )
Villa 6-0 winners away to Old Bridge....big result! anyone know the scorers! Between Villa and Town for the league now. Town 8 points off but 3 games in hand!Quote:

3rd round of the Tipperary Cup is being made Monday night. For the first time in a long time a team other than one of the top 2!! has a real chance of silverwear this season, both Cup and Premier League. I fancy Peake to be the team to take one of these.
Saints get in trouble? are you having a laugh?Quote:

Ahh! Here we go again. It's blame the ref time!! What did he do that was so wrong today?? Were you at the game?? Was anyone else who was at the game as upset with the refs performance?? On the title.... I think Peake will take the league....there flying!!Quote:

Valid point Dazz. Town have to play Michaels and Villa again if I'm nit mistaken. Alot will rely on those games I think.Quote:

I think the league will come down to the Peake vs Town game. who's at home?
