I think collcor have ballinhassig away too, wont be easy especially after their result against leeds in the weekend
I was just naming the so called big boys. They still have 9 games remaining
cobh gone already
Correct Cobh mathamatically allready doomed! Mallow look most likely to follow but they still have to play ballincollig. Could be a survival showdown. Mallow 3 behind collig with 2 games in hand. It would be interesting if the MSL could leave that game until last. Bottom of the table crunch games can be just as exciting as the title winning games.
Regarding the 1st div promotion chase, Even after a tough defeat at the weekend i hope its Fermoys year. North cork club would be fresh in the Prem again after a few years out. Great facilities aswell. Long way to go yet including a difficult trip to leeds this weekend who themselves will be looking for some ''bouncebackability'' after a shocking result last time out. My final predication
1. Fermoy
2. Ringmahon
3. Corinthians
4. Leeds
a small bit hasty, think you were having an anti Corinthians day that day lol. good win alright we still have every team to play so a long way to go. If the lads can keep everyone fit and happy we will do alright, great league this year shoukld make for an excellent finish.
I dont know much about ballinhassig, however there results are very inconsistent. The battle between Collig and mallow should be interesting , i reckon mallow have it in them to avoid relegation. Relegation for a town the size of Ballincollig would be huge, were have all the players who had the in the senior league gone? retired or just moved on?
Ah well that's a week in my life Im not gonna get back. Bustin a nut since Mon to ensure we have a decent side to travel to CIT on Thursday night only to be informed by the league late this evening that for some reason (as yet unclear) it's been called off. Three lads were after ditching lectures to get back from Limerick and Waterford, another two of the lads are up in the Curragh and had switched shifts to get free as well as a few others. In my book this is scandalous and amatuerish in the extreme.
Thought there was a hard and fast rule about asking for games off two weeks before a fixture and if not then tough titty. Very very browned off about this. An absolute shambles of a league. How they expect to keep people interested and committed when they chop and change fixtures like this is anyones guess. I assume CIT will have a suitable explanation, but I've not heard it.
A joke, even the Red house league can give you a months worth of fixtures and stick to it. Why the hell can't we.
Rant over
I think CIT have pulled a fast one on ye here, Their college team is going strong in college cup and i know for a fact that they were down to play an AUL team tonight(wednesday) for a friendly. Surely they would not have organised a friendly if they had a league game the next night.
To add even more insult to injury. That is an absoulte shocker if they have gotten away with this bluff. I think we'll just go up there and play with ourselves and score and lodge the result with the league, see how that goes down.
Sambles, smacks too much of the buggering around that went on with our fixtures at the end of last season.
Crikey you lot are gonna have some congestion. It is great to be involved at this end of the season. At the end of it I know I'll have been proud of us and all the teams we come up against for keeping football as the winner. I've been delighted that most teams we've played have a keep it on the deck mentality. Cracking league indeed.
Clifford totally agree, I have been harping on about this now awhile. Why on earth cant we get even 2 weeks in advance? It is crazy. I also believe that clubs would get far larger crowds at games if it happened. The reason I believe this is lets say Blarney are playing Mayfield Friday and Everton know they have Blarney next week then woundn't you think alot of Everton players/managment and followers would go and look at Blarney game to see what shape they are in. It also gives players a chance to get away if they have a week off. It is common sense and I think everything boils down to that. Anyway after my rant.........good luck Sunday.
One or two that were missing last Sun will be back so not too bad on that front. Deffo a tough place to go, we'll give it a shot anyway and try to get the show back on the road after a tough few weeks of injuries and lads off to the states.
Looking forward to it now, but still ****ed off over that game being pulled. Went to so much bother to get a team sorted, what a waste of time. Pop Keller or not I give everything I can to all games.
Yeah, totally agree with the points made there. Very difficult to plan for anything really. Supporters, players, managers etc need a plan to work off. I realise it's difficult, but to set a precedent for CIT to pull out at 24 hours notice is dangerous.
I think I'll try it out in a week or two. pull out on a Sat for a Sun game agains College Cors or someone to see if this league has one rule for some and another rule for others.
It wasn't an anti Corinthians day, it was an anti complaining day. I had my wife in the ear the whole morning so i had already reached boiling point :-)
Clifford, that is a disgrace by the MSL But does it actually surprise anyone? You said a player of yours was sent off last weekend. Would he have been eligible for the Leeds game if the CIT game had gone ahead as planned?
