[QUOTE=backpass;1696284]It was asked why guys are considering going AUL prem from MSL etc. There are reasons outside of football which is fine by me. I'm all for clubs helping players to get work. I think now though it's being used to sign outside players from other clubs, if I was a player already at that club and was on the dole I'd be p***ed off. Can't help club morale in the long run...Quote:

Loyalty is well gone lad.....have a look at all the players leaving clubs who win leagues and cups this year......and give it a few weeks and players wull be on the move again......i know 3 fellas playing with 3 different clubs who were promised a job over 2 years ago and are happy out playing every week knowing that the mortgage is being paid and the kids are looked after....thats whats more important for some fellas and who are we to knock thatQuote:

Hasn't been loyalty in the AUL for a very long long time, bar a few to be fair.
Wait till the players who moved clubs get dropped or dont get a jersey youl see a circus then....fellas moving for a different challange is ok but after winning trophies with a club I cannot understand why they move unless they not happy.....id always tell fellas go train and get a feel for it before you sign any form....plenty fellas sign forms before preseason even starts andthey could end up hating itQuote:

Absolutely spot on backpass! The club I'm involved in has a great track record with loyalty. Couple of our players were offered to lay Munster senior last season and turned it down cos we've worked hard together as a squad with 3 years. Once there's good craic and you have a solid base within your team I dont see the point in leaving. Why change teams every season or two. I just don't get it!Quote:

Knockavilla? Heard a few weeks back things weren't looking good but haven't heard anything since. Didn't hear the Innishvilla rumour though
Just saw it on facebook, thought Knockavilla myself when i saw the announcment. Shame really, another club falls into the vortex that is Cork AUL
And are Innishvilla def going up? Would the AUL not keep the 2nd bottom team in Prem as opposed to promoting a team? Nothing against Innushvilla now. Fine side who play great ball
why not just ask oldlegs im sure he can comfirm if it Knockavilla or not ??
Spot on JRyno, loyalty has been replaced by the SAT NAV. A true affiliation with a club is priceless, winning something along the way will provide a life time of memories.
Anyone who has ever put in serious time with his club will tell you there is no better feeling in football than to do well with the people you have played with through good times an bad,,,,,,,,,the worst thing for me is with all this club hopping going on, the real club players get pushed out for short term gain, clubs loose those people who kept them going when they had nothing,,,,,,,,, games changed like everything else in life i suppose nowadays, dosent mean I have to like it though.
im old school so no offence meant, its just my 2 cents.
What about greenwood will they avoid the drop this year?????
It's with great sadness and a heavy heart that I write this Knockavilla have pulled out of Cork Aul soccer theirs a few reason's for this the main reason being lack of players with no underage structure in club their was nothing coming through. We have had a great time in aul won our share of cup's and leagues and played our way from 3 right up to Prem league. I've had the honour of playing with some legends I'd name them all but I'd be here for ever . I can also confirm that Innishvilla have been promoted to Prem . Knockavilla Abu
Sorry to hear that old legs. Nice bunch of lads. Never an easy place to go
sad news oldlegs i hope you continue playing ball still some mileage in them oldlegs yet :cool:Quote:
