All I'm saying is (having played against them in the last round) Portmarnock have their work cut out if they are to beat Dungarvan in Waterford.

In my opinion I THINK Ballyheane will beat UL/AA, but I HOPE they don't.
Is that simple enough for you, or would you like me to PM you and explain it.
Desmond league i think................Quote:

No offence to Blanch as he has been a great servant to the club; its just that they won't allow him to retire. As had been said earlier, Town lack punch up front. Although McHugh ended his drought on Sunday it was against Goolscross and he has yet to really perform in a big game this year (the league win in Cooke Park is an exception).Quote:

Lastly, and apologies for going on so long, but Town will remember last year and will get at the Bridge from the first minute. If the Bridge weather the initial storm, put themselves about a bit and rattle Town then who knows.
After all that, would I put a tenner on the Bridge? No bloody way.
No, St Itas not in the Desmond either.
Dont tell me you Country Lads are taking the pi$$ out of a poor Jackeen?:eek:
Two years ago Pyke came to Coolnamuck to play Carrick in the Munster Senior Cup semi-final and they kicked lumps out of the Carrick lads. What will be remembered in Carrick was the fact that Carrick had an FAI Junior Cup final only six days later and it was felt by many that Pyke deliberatly went out to take a few guys out of the final 6 days later. Incidentally, Carrick won that Senior semi-final and lost the final to Cork City. Their midfielder, Goggs wasn't fully fit for the FAI Junior final having been kicked around the park by Pyke. I'd love to see Carrick win this tie; just don't expect a classic as there is some history here and it could get a little heated.Quote:

They kicked ballymun off the field last weekend.
ye got hammered 3-0 in that final if i remember correctly, ya ye bottled it against an average fairview side.
pike doing fairview a favour???you must be having a laugh! i hope they kick carrick around the place again
How will salthill devon do against dublin opposition on sunday? will they be in last 16?
Also is last year finalists playing on sunday too? Waterford Crystal will they make it?
didnt u play with pike long enough did u not like it up there?Quote:

As I have said before, I just enjoy watching football in south tipp and have no affiliations. Looking forward to the Carrick v Pike game even more now. I hope the Carrick lads read your posts. Nonsense!
Look, widow is a ballynanty supporter/player trying to stir sh*t up for sunday, he'd like nothing more than for pike to lose on sunday.
Ps. they were an average fairview team, one or two top players alright but that was it. Fairview haven't beaten pike in about three years, roll on sunday
Salthill Devon into last 16 with 2-1 over Valley Park United.Quote:

Carrick are favourites and rightly so probably the best footballing team in the competition at he moment :D
Heard this morning that Carew have lodged an objection against their defeat to Castlebar Celtic. The objection I've heard is based on a rule stating that only 4 ec-League of Ireland players may line out in the Junior Cup and Castlebar seemingly fielded 5!? Anyone know if this is true or anything of the rule?
Might as well state from the start that I'm a Covey. We've got Killester coming to town next weekend and if anyone from Killester FC need tips or help re their trip to 'The Port' drop me a line. I'll be more than happy to repay the hospitality show to us in Killester ast year.
That rule is there all right - Dykes,Kelly and Carty are ex league of Ireland. Does anybody know the other two?
I know that both Gerry Burke and Joey Maloney were both on Sligo Rovers books ar some stage. Not sure if they played or whatever. Would having signed for them be enough to make them ineligible????Quote:

Forgot to mention that the Ballyheane fixture is also off next weekend. Anyone know why?

If they have played more than 5 games at senior level- so Castlebar can play 4 of these players.There is another rule that says if a player hasn't played senior for 5 years, he can be regraded to a junior player.That might apply to Dykes.Anyway, it all seems fairly complicated but I'm sure castlebar would have everything in order - time will tell.
Hope so, it's great to have 3 Mayo sides in the last 16 (hopefully!).
the new rule states that any player that has not played senior football in the previous 12 months atomatically becomes an amatuer player.. dont know if this is the same as regrding but seems to be...Quote:

Think this applys to domestic games ie county and provincial leagues and not the Junior Cup!?Quote:
