A bit of common sence....What a waste of time..
Caledonians 2-3 Pike B
To everyones amazement this went ahead yesterday in Rathuard on a pitch that was in tatters after ten minutes play.
It started as you'd expect in the conditions with very little football and half chances for both sides, poor finishing on my own part in particular kept it scoreless at the break.
Cals came on strong early in the second half but Kieran Stewart was in top form.
We took the lead ten minutes into second half from a great corner by Barry Lipper and with a little help from Darren Hanrahans backside,(easing two defenders out of my way):D I managed to give us the lead from 3 yards out. Cals equalised immediatly, with a very scrappy goal from a yard after a cross by Wayne Lee. We went back in front after some good build up play on the break saw Dom Bourke drive home from 20 yards, a real cracker. He repeated the trick shortly after from 22 yards, giving us a two goal cushion with 5 to play.
As befitting our season we made it hard for ourselves a minute later when looking for an offside Clifton Carey slipped in unmarked and finished well past Stewie. It was then a crazy last 2 minutes with our 18 yard box like the Alamo!!
But Stewie pulled out another magnificent save to get us all 3 points.
A tough, honest excellent second half by both teams. And a massive 3 points for us.
Best for us were Stewie, Dom Bourke, Cian Hanrahan and Robert Sheedy.
Talk about a mud bath , but we wont complain . Fair play to both teams for doing their best in a game of bog soccer . I cant remember one bad tackle in the whole game . any body got an updated league table .
we were :mad:having to travel out there knowing it would be off is annoyingQuote:

i ment from our point of view, of course its crazy makin teams show up just to turn round and go home again. They have got to do something about this it makes no sense at all. are the refs happy doing this? i know they get a few quid but what a waste of timeQuote:

Blame the teams who took advantage of the rules and pulled the proverbial "fast on"?
Thats fair enough but when the weather was as bad as it was last week and the forecast for Saturday night was terrible surely they can use common sense for once instead of making so many teams travel for no reason. I ended up at the Pike v Fairview premier game and the amount of players and refs who arrived along after their games were called off was ridiculous.
In a perfect World Lar, all pitches would be Pikes pitch... ;)Quote:

I did say a few weeks back that Fairview B were overated, and would not go up. Also that they would lose to Boro B and after that lose a few more.
So after last Sundays defeat to Caherdavin let me just give myself a little,

Thats rubbish axe man . Making teams travel when they know full well pitches are not playable is not only madness but dangerous . The LDMC are a disgrace making a team travel 20 miles on an icy sunday morning .Quote:
