Mayfield without Brosie and Wolf looked a very ordinary side last night again Midleton missed chance after chance and made hard work of it in the end but were fully deserved winners playing some very attractive football in the process.
ya midleton looked a decent side played some nice football,and were just about the better team,i felt we might of just deserved a draw,maybe i'm being a bit bias.Quote:

Dale went right down and scored a winner well into stoppage time.
How about the refs performance razor? Very strange decisions made,even with your Avondale hat on you must admit that! When Cors got the equaliser he gave Dale a free for no apparent reason which led to the goal. The booking he gave to a Cors player for diving was comical! Anytime they had an advantage he gave the free to them and refused blatant ones then-something very strange there. Other than that it was a good game,Cors great football v. Dales route one style. Good advert for the league. Official has to have a serious look at himself however. On a positive note it was great to see Midleton win last night. They were the better team and deserved it.

I dont remember any keeper making a save in the first half so it was tight all over the pitch. The pitch itself was IMMENSE as usual - credit to Corinthians. The referee wasn't too bad in my opinion. I felt the Corinthians bench were not helping their own players by getting excited. To be honest I was on the Corinthians side of the pitch so I could not call if the player dived. If he did a booking was just and if not it should have been a spotter.The dale's first goal was nicely done from a corner with centre half performing a clever dummy. Corinthians were justified of an equaliser and the centre forward took it brilliantly. I felt a draw was fair but D.Long scored in injury time and he deserved it personally as I thought he was very sharp. Corinthians were hard done by regarding not getting a point but did not do enough to win. Avondale defence was excellent but their midfield were dominated at times. Good game and massive points for the league leaders.
That is about as fair as I can be. Hope my report doesn't offend any DALE/CORINTHIANS boys.
I had no hat on today despite the cold.Quote:

Cors played some nice football and looked extremely young, which is great to see.
Apart from that call I didn't think the ref had anything contentious to deal with from what I saw.
In fact I can't seem to remember either keeper making a save in the 2nd half either.
The ref didn't get the big calls in the game correct. The corner for avondales first goal wasn't a corner. Doody kicked the ball wide himself but the ref gave the corner. There second goal came from a free that never was and it looked that there was a foul on the gk from the free.
The non penalty was a tough one. There was contact so it was a foul but the dive was a bit theatrical
A fair review Sparky,its a game of opinions after all and you like I gave an honest one. I thought the ref gave the Dale an awful lot and there was no foul in the build up to the winning goal. I can see why the Cors bench got upset,it did look like every 50/50 went to the dale. As for the lad who was booked for diving,it was a foul and as you said it should have been a penalty. I'v watched him play kenedy cup and he is not the type of fella who would dive. What we are agreed on is that it was a good game of high standard.
Tramore 1-5 Fermoy
Good win today away to Tramore. Gav Quirke 2 and Graham Byrnes in the first half. Mark Barry and Dave Clancy in the sec. They had man sent off with 3 mins left at 1-5. No idea what players are thinking half the time. He had no need at all to see red.
Bring on UCC next Sat afternoon at home.
Intresting to see Avondale have another pic in the echo seems like every second day now would like to know who their contact is plenty of other clubs and thier commitees in cork to take photos of!
There's at least one person on the board that works with the echo. Not sure if there's more than that.Quote:

Kinda guessed there was some connection,I'd bet every club would launch new signs every week in the echo if they could get that coverage doubt they could though looking a bit biased from the echo "buzz" team or notQuote:

Fermoy 0-0 UCC
Tough game at Carrig Park on Sat afternoon in heavy ground. Lots of good performances on both sides. We had clearer cut chances, hit the bar before half time, missed a great 1 on 1 and in the sec half and incredible save from their keeper from Seanie Mc. but without doubt they had the stronger finish and we got out of jail with an incredible tackle on their number 9 from Tomas Clancy after the 9 ran from half way, beating two along the way. Draw fair result.
Apologies,Stanton and Murphy staying with College but a striker has left them for Douglas hall? Best guess would be Jamie Drennan???
a douglas hall member of management rang our captain last week.next day he asks for a transfer so i dunno what he was offered.and before we get into an argument about playing premier football n stuff its just very disappointing he has done this to club especially seeing as he was club captain.no loyalties at all.plays centre so dunno bout the striker part
patrick coakley is the corinthians striker after signing for douglas hallQuote:

Chris Fox is the Ringmahon lad going to Douglas hall,McCarthy has joined Avondale but the hall manager refused to leave transfer go through so it's gone to the league. Maybe Ringmahon should do the same to them... Never heard of a Coakley playing with College.
Alrite lads,
Anyone looking for a game wed/thurs 28th/29th ? Killumney utd will travel to play ye pm or evening. Contact Derek 087 9475627 if interested. Cheers.
just heard off a transfer going thru.. lawrence fitz to rockmount
Hes an excellant player that lad from ringmahon that's a disgrace your captain leaving midway through the season I know hall dont pay but they do offer them work as I know one lad who was offered a job if he went to them but Avondale found him a better job so he signed for them instead.Your lucky ye have a good Youth system to relace guys like that.
at the end of the day if the guys out of work & they genuinely DO get him a job then you cant blame him in fairness , on the other hand it could just be an excuse to move ( theyre fixing me up with a job ) .. im sure Ringmahonforever will have the details soon enough ..
seems a bit hypocritical of the Hall management when it came to Mcarthy's transfer to the hall being stopped though doesnt it ? stop a player from leaving but poach another clubs player
