I heard Lmk37 haven't paid a penny, the groundsman is paid by FAS and the LDMC are looking for €200 for use of the pitch for one fixture. €150 for use of the pitch and €50 for the groundsman who's wages they don't pay.

I thought i heard about 18 months ago that the National Roads Authority had paid compensation to Carew Park because they had built the new dual carriage way through their old pitch. The figure I heard was quite substantial aswell.Quote:

Just hope its all run well up there now that they have it.
Agree totally what has what happened in that field got to do with great facilities going ahead up there..
Best of luck to Carew Park good young side that Gave it to Pike this Year just hope ye can keep it now..
Good to see Billy Moloney back involved up there seem's to be getting Good Responce from the lad's..
Getting Back to all the talk about John Boyle, I remeber Pike people saying he will be the best winger in Limerick since hes past manager Conny.BULL..
Conny let's on he is Pike through & through but yet he has only won a league and Munster Junior up there just cant seem to hack it when it comes to FAI it will be a few year's if they ever win one....
Go back working in Loughnanes Buther's Dec..
carew wont hold or see a penny of the money everything will just be done for them best way i suppose.
green hoop all your doing is making pike more hated then they already are
hes won more that as a player with pike:ball:Quote:

All that said to my flamers,I've never said a bad thing about Carew,If there getting all mentioned above fair play,they've have a good start to the league etc..Hope it lasts for them above there.
Note:It seems that all the activity on these pages is done between work hours,is it that no one has broadband at home?
just like to say I hope it works out for carew park, good facilities can only help junior soccer in general.
last year was conny's first season as a player/manager and won a munster junior, you can't argue with that.
With regards pike paying players signing on fees its highly unlikely as the other players would all leave if a few were getting paid. I remember they paid players about 10-15 years ago when Jaws was manager and that nearly ruined them as they signed aload of mercenaries who left the following season. The pike players that were there left and the club nearly got relegated over the next few seasons. I'm sure they've learned their lesson from that. Boyle leaving is shockin tho as its come out of the blue, I wonder are carew paying him! :D:D
Free pints in the steering wheel is rumoured!! :)Quote:

Those kind of facillities dont come cheap a descent floodlit all weather could cost approx €250,000 depending on size and dressing rooms like the one being mentioned another € 200,000 and the pitch as much as € 100,000 that all amounts to €550,000, the national roads authority most have an awful lot of money to throw around.Quote:

Just lkie to say looking forward to the Fairview/Boro clash this week. From what i've seen so far this season they don't seem to be up to much, possibly relegation candidates, along with Summerville who should be playing in 1B at most!
:D I was only joking...how do the other carew players feel about thatQuote:

Ya i think the view will be much too strong for boro, they seem to be suffering second season syndrome after their excellent league win last year.Quote:

As for summerville, they're like bolton this year. Lost a great manager who played a simple but effective long ball game last year which produced the 1A double while this year they're trying to expand their game under a very intelligent management team. But it doesnt look like its working for them

I never said Pike paid their players, in fact I have never said a bad thing about Pike.Quote:

Exactly they dont come cheap, thats why Im saying that I dont think the LDMC would be paying for the facilities to be built.Quote:

Ye couldn't afford me Summervilleman!!!:cool:
You are a Pike man so would it be fair to say that he inherited his team just like derick white did when he won the FAI with fairview and if Whites lead is anything to go by i wouldnt be 2 optimistic.Quote:

Just asking, since when has the LDMC charged clubs for the use of Jackman Park? :confused: I've heard that Balla requested the use of the pitch for their Senior FAI game against Bridge Celtic of Clare, Sunday 30th Sept only to be told it will cost them €200. Are the LDMC forgetting that the clubs own Jackman Park. How much are Limerick 37 paying for the use of the pitch? Absolutely nothing, that's what. Its time all junior clubs in this town started asking questions about who has priority to play in Jackman. I've never heard of any club been charged. If anyone knows of a club who has been charged please leave a message.:ball:
Lfc37 also train on jackman
L37 train in Hogan park AFAIK
Thought they trained in hogan Park? Or are the sharing the training in both Jackman and Hogan Park?Quote:

JUST SAYING THAT A LFC37 TEAM HAS TRAINED ON JACKMANNQuote:

limerick37 are using jackman as there home pitch it makes sense to train on it afew times,they have also used UL,Mary I and Catholic Inst,
if clubs want to use another pitch its right they have to pay
why should the clubs THAT OWN JACKMANN have to pay to play on it???
Why should Junior clubs have to pay if LMK37 don't?
Especially if the Limerick Junior Clubs own it and pay the LDMC player levys and fees already
Limerick 37 make a fortune off their gates and could afford to be paying something for the use of Jackman Park. The majority of local junior clubs on the other hand, are only just surviving to keep their heads above water and its a disgrace that they should be asked to pay €200 to use the pitch. I've learned that the LDMC want €150 for the use of the pitch and €50 for the groundsman. After asking around I now understand that the two groundsmen employed there are employees of FAS and are been paid by FAS, not the LDMC. So who's trying to rob who?
Another thing I discovered is that Ballynanty Rovers were one of the original clubs along with others who put together the £10,000 (Punts) to purchase Jackman Park and now they have to pay their way in there. Is this bad business or personal from the LDMC?
Ohhhh. Try and keep it to sport and not personal Green Hoop. Seroius stuff been said there about Balla and Carew Park. The difference is now a days with club houses, is that they are ran as businesses outside the soccer club and not by committees. Not that you would have the cop on to know that. Sour grapes I think!

not looking for sympathy, just an example of ldmc robbing clubs
2 years ago my club entered a u/17 and youth team. full year fees were payed in advance for both teams . due to cricumstances beyond the clubs control, both teams were withdrawn without kicking a ball..had one fixture which ldmc cancelled before we withdrew teams. Ldmc would not refund the monies and demanded that all youth and u/17 forms that had been registerd had to be payed for.. When the agm came around we recieved only two votes(a& B teams). ldmc stated that we only had two teams even though they charged for four teams.. money grabbers..
