Your right CSA , if I was a manager I would much prefer my lads not to be involved but on the flip side if I was manager of the OT then I would be picking the best players that were available to me ...
I am guessing that you are a Balla man as you refer to your manager as "Ray" ?
What is the talk like in Balla , are ye confident of going all the way this year??
balla have requested a free weekend that is why they are probably not in the squad saying that it was only dunphy in the panel and judging by the last few weeks nobody playing exceptional
or is this 'Ray' talking down his players to make sure they do not get a call up into the OT.Quote:

Wonder if there would be any of them puling out at the last minute with injuries ! :confused:
no i've seen them they played well against castlebar in the FAI but that's itQuote:

no not balla man just know "Ray" and a good manager and as you stated any manager would have the clubs best interests first,not an ot game that i think no one only the LDMC have much time for, i mean its a bad state of affairs when a player gets in trouble for refusing to play.
Carew Pk & Balla drawn in the FAI.
A terrible pity that one isn't going to be the final.
Hard one to call anyone like to have a go a calling it ???
I see Park got another hany one poacher !!!
Still think they won't make the final
Dave Dunphy is a class act & in my opinion has proved with spells at Kilkenny & Limerick that he is easily good enough for the eircom league.Quote:

Can anyone up date the Munster Junior Cup Quarter Final Draw
Team A: Clodagh Rangers or Hill Celtic or Tralee Dynamos V Ferrybank

Team D: St Michael's or Fairview Rangers V Leeside or Maymount Celtic.
Semi Final Draw will be

Newcastle West beat Crosshaven in a penalty shoot-out last Sunday.
Wasnt at the game but according to a good source they were 2-0 and let Crosshaven bring it back to 2-2....but beat them after a penno shoot-out.
Good to see a Desmond League Premier team going well....some real talent at the club and here's hoping they keep on going. :)
Could any body tell me if fairview hae lost any players to limerick city? Did they best Michael's at the weekend?
Fairview lost Tommy Barrett and Robbie Kelliher their top scores to Limerick
Michaels seem to have lost paul tobin Left full to limerick
match is down for decision this weekend
YE Poacher, might go another round ae yer oppenents struggled to beat Granville in an earlier round & as we all know Granville are VERY average.Quote:

They are simply not good enough at the back or up front.
Shane O'Connor is very overated in my opinion but if YE Poacher, get the big lad Russell to play, think he might be busy with the GAA though, ye will always have a better chance.
I'm going to stick my neck out & go for Balla to beat Carew.
It's just a hunch as everyone agrees it's too close to call but I am not one for sitting on the fence hahaha!!!
Anyone else brave enough to call it ???
Tommy & Robbie are going to be a huge loss but with John White, Alan Barry & Mike Kerley all signing for the View I think we will cope.Quote:

It makes no sence to keep good players out of Limerick Junior Soccer & forcing them to play in the Kerry or Clare leagues.
Heard today from a reliable source that Dermot Finnan is definitly leaving the Boro at the end of the season.

As I have said on the FAI thread I think that Balla will have too much class for Carew. Man for man they are the better team and Carew know that they would have been much better of avoiding the two Limerick teams. It will affect their discipline too much. If they go behind and they see their dream slipping away watch out for some red cards !!!Quote:

with the boro I think its a case of the players failing the manager, every manager has failed because its being the same base of players there for years, its too easy to just blame the manager
We are back talking about the Boro again I see - why are the players in that club getting blamed for everything? maybe its a case of the Manager failing the players? for the last 4 years its been the players asking for more and the Managers dragging their heals and stuck in the past. If you look at the clubs that are doing well at this time Fairview, Balla, Park, Pike, CarewQuote:

Compare this with the Boro that were asked to run around two footballs for half and hour without ever kicking a ball the last session before a munster junior quarter final or better still not train at all, not because the players don't want to but because the manager does not feel like it.
Under Jaws Ryan, Trevor Lovelle an FAI coach was brought in because the manager was not capable of taking a training session, this took months of fighting to get and lasted two sessions because Jaws said his training was not good enough and "would not get a fat person fit" the committee agreed?????????
Instead the team took part in a tactical session of genius proportions, stand around in the freezing cold while he worked on a free kick that involved nothing more than a player kicking the ball as hard as they can towards the goal and hoping for a deflection. A quality session.
I could go on but you must see my point by now, there is a very manageable bunch of players in that club but what they need is a manager. For what its worth I heard the rumour Finnan is out and they are looking to put someone new in. Jason O'Connor would be an excellent replacement and I am sure he would turn things around and get the boro back on track. But anything could happen in that club - maybe Jaws is on his way back?
Jaws 2 the revenge of the ...............
what about urself whitestripe wud u take the job
He would be sent from the line so often the side would have no manager
Ha- good one but your miles out.
A strategically placed bollard would do a better job than any of the last few managers.
Most of the managers have been in and out in about 1 season. This can never be good unless your players are exceptional. We know the buch of boro payers are decent so maybe if a manager stuck at it instead of expecting instant success then they might actually get somewhere !!Quote:

He bought a house a lives in Cork. He was playing in the Munster Senior League with some team down there b4 Christmas but not sure if he still is. He was injured before Christmas I think.Quote:

Don't want to be bringing up the boro as it seems there is a lot
of unrest within the site but how true are the rumours of dermot finnan
leaving the boro.
If so,will he be returning back to the view do you think. :ball: :ball: :ball:
What are the fictures for this weekend ?? Is the MJC down for decision?? What other Limerick teams are involved other than Fairview?? What are the prem league fixtures ?? Are Pike likely to strecth their lead again this week ??
Have not seen any paper this week and am in the dark! Appreciate if someone could let me know the fixtures along with your predictions for them..
On the Fairview tie , I would imagine that whoever wins the game will win the MJC! Anyone else got an opinion on the comp???
