If pike had their full squad out there is not much you would change....
gk - Smackers - (could do with a back up)
defenders - corbett, mitchell, mcgarry, mullins, enright, purcell, (could do with another left full as cover)
Midfield - Hartnett, o'grady, o'shea, gregg, hanrahan, o'donovan, barry
Strikers- maloney, boyle, sniffer, nabs
probably missed a few names from the list also.....
alot of the players are interchangable with a number having played in diferent positions in the team (in some cases 3 different positions)
spot on ted.why would tommy want to travel in to limerick 3 times a week when his local club are playing in the same division.but i know from last year all the lads enjoyed playing alonside each other and with the lads coming through we should be challenging shortly for honours and the likes of tommy will still be young enough to play.they all know it is a massive achievement to stay in premier with a team built from all locals and the main thing is to keep it going and not travel for the sake of winning a medal and letting down all your close mates when as isaid earlier its only a matter of time before we are challenging for honours.
As i said on a previous thread i was delighted to see kilmallock stay up they play lovely football and yer u17 did so well this year, but i dont think that ye'll challenge for honurs any time soon, no disrespect meant in that comment i just think that teams like pike and fairview have ways and means of getting guys to leave a club that they have been loyal to for years, $$$$ and the guarantee of challenging for league munster jr and fai ...I hope im wrong and tommy stays put.....
A lot of the players Wembley lost went back to clubs that they originally played football with when they were underage. Others went to Limerick and then there are the few that just dont play anymore.
With Kilmallock I think most, if not all, of there under age players grew up with the club. That would help them keep those players and the fact that they are all from the area as well. (I dont know much about the kilmallock teams and Im guessing that they all come from the town :) )
if you think kaka going to chelsea is a shock wait till you see who is signing for pike next season(fact).pike will sign big this coming season and give the fai a good shot next year o happy happy days ahead in the hands of the two declans.
cant in case the press get a hold of it but it is going to happen.
i bet any money this so called mystery signing is a limerick player who is currently out of pat scullys plans and by what he told me not to long ago he didnt fancy his chances of getting back in to scullys plans.
is he by any chance an ex granville and pike schoolboy who played in england as a pro for a number of years?
i bet its someone from limerick if it aint the man im suggesting anyway
