It's easier to play for a side like star were he's treated like a good player than it is to play for a top side were he has to fight for his place in the team.

Just for your information, he was asked by 3 of the top 4 clubs in town to sign with them at the start of the season, and could easily have moved on, but stayed with us.

Bottom line is, HE IS GOOD ENOUGH for any side in town, and there are actually decent players outside of the top half of the table, if you bothered to notice

If he's that good then why are star at the bottom of the league!
(here come the excuses again)

1 player can't make a team good....He is signed with star and they have to make do with the players that have signed and try get results with that team..Just because they have one good player means that they shouldn't be bottom of the league is it??Think before u type hoops!...And i agree that he would get into any of the top 4 teams.....

But what do i know ..we are only in 4th last place!!!

exactly couldn't have said it better myself:)

"And i agree that he would get into any of the top 4 teams....."


I wouldnt be too sure about that. Pa was offered to play with Boro, among others numerous times.
Fine player

How can you expect one player to keep a team up!!!!! Your talking trype again.

my only quim is we all know pat barry is a class player, and would command a place in any prem team in town. why oh why is this guy never in the oscar trainer team..........?????????????

Pat Sheehan should send a form to each premier team, one for each player to fill out a team of the season. That would be better than them guessing or going by match reports.

I remember a few years ago Pat Sheehan did a fantasy football type of thing with the premier league. It was class must have taken alot of work though.

Yes i remember that myself..Twas pretty gooD..Gave how many games a player played and how many goals and cards etc!!Twas excellent..I'd say there is a lot of work in it though!!

What about a players player of the season award? Similar to that in the prem! That would be a good idea I think? may even boost interest in the game. People will always try harder to impress when there's praise involved!

You're a walking mountain of trype, the bull you sprout on this site about star, who cares about star anyway!

look the bottom line is Pa is a very good player but wether he'd get a game with balla or pike is another thing, the only way for him to find out is for him to go to one of the big clubs and see how he gets on.

and does he take the easy option each year signing with star knowing that all he has to do is turn up to play?

For those of you who have genuinely seen Pa play, do ye think he's good enough to play for Balla.Pike etc?

I have no doubt that he is good enough. If the interest was there, that is.

i have seen him play and he has been excellent on some occasions,on other occasions he may as well be still asleep,would he walk onto the top 4 teams?i have no doubt he'd get a game but if carried on like he does with star he wouldn't last long

Well maybe thats all he wants to do at the end of the day...Turn up on a sunday morning and play a game and not worry about not getting picked..Maybe thats what he wants ..A game of ball every week..I mean no one wants to sit on the sideline every week(and i am not saying he would be if he went to pike or balla) but its his own choice and if he choose to play with star then so be it!!!

refer to my post in the premier thread and you know i won't disagree with that

lets start with the keeper for the team of the season i think it comes down to 3 Hickey,Gilmartin or Stewart for me they have stood out head and shoulders above the rest now im leaving it up to ye to pick 1 from the 3..................

I beg to differ. Dave McNamara pulled off a string of fine performances,namely his Penalty saves against Fairview this year. Any time I've seen Hickey his kicking for a keeper is far below par,especially when put under pressure..

smackers isnt in the top 3 for this season im afraid and either will bennis make it so just pick 1

Alan Morton has to be a shoe in for centre half,a commanding figure at the back who can do the business at the other end too,HIS goal against Summerville at the weekend testament to this,alas the premier will be a lesser place without you my friend

Says a Balla B player that cannot get promoted even if they finish in the top 2 each season, now there's an easy option...........spare me.

and how do you maintain that???
I never said he wasn't a good player, whats at question is wether he's good enough for pike or balla. which in my opion you can't say that he is until he go's to a top team and see's how he gets on (if gets on at all), if only for 1 season and he can then go back to star.

My opinion is that he is, and Ive played on the same team as him now for 4 season's, and your opinion is that he isn't, so lets just leave it at that, shall we.

Who made you king of the junior realm? Your anti Pike attitude is lovely,fact is the guy deserves to be in the top 3 for the season.Easily.

If Hickey gets it,its a Joke,guys struggles with Kickouts,Gordon can't for the fact Carew went on a 5/6 game loosing streak there with one score worse than the other..If it as it should go on consistency,then Smackers is in there.

those 3 keepers were picked by the limerick leader.im doing right fulls tonight and the nominees are mike ahern,dave dunphy and paddy mitchell
