shels it seems to me u ave a chip on your shoulder when ever anything about bunratty is posted. to me a big club is a club that has won 2 premier leagues, a div one title, and 3 cups in the last ten years ( not exactly sure on these). dont think any other club besides avenue can boast this record. that big enough for you.Quote:

When you go give up 4 nights of your week to train the young lads then you deserve the right to comment.Quote:

Well said papa j, Posts as good as this one only come with experiance(old age):D. Maybe Tony, you should have a look at some of these young lads your defending and how it was the three lads(the three superstars of the team) that left to go to Newmarket and how the rest of the team are still with Newtown.Quote:

no abuse in game ... do you watch any matches local / league of ireland / even tv games you can see players swear / abuse each other even managers do it .. :confused:Quote:

If this continues then how will the so called big( junior ) clubs field a team in a few years?? I'm sorry to say that imo a few clubs will be unable to field a decent ( if any) junior team in the next 10 years or so.
Sure tony, you started the comment and all your getting is responces to it.Quote:

players will always leave clubs no matter what manager is in chargeQuote:

Ok booo hooo. lets agree to disagreeQuote:

If i'm not mistaken were at least one of these lads that transfered to newmarket on the newtown junior panel year. He should be big enough and bold enough to take criticism. A point comes at aged 16 or so that if a manager doesn't show whose in charge lads of that age will walk all over him.
At least he can take a bollocking:DQuote:
