Although the thread is highly entertaining in school yard way , It is getting totally out of order , lets get back to football and leave the obvious Newtown baiting to one side.Why not open a Newtown thread and let the rest of us debate the Clare league as the thread was intended before the mods decide otherwise.:eek:
tony .. first you were having a dig at a certain well know newtown person who is involved with youth team an d his antics at matches.. what has jay stretts got to do with this :confused: are you a bitter person with a grudge against newtown... plenty other clubs out there with probally with same problems with youth teams and so called overweight old men & plenty of overweight young men still playing junior football around clare & shannonQuote:

Thats utter crap...I was at that match, and there was no striking of a Newmarket player...that player was sent off for a comment made to a referee who was having a bad day.Quote:

As for anger management issues, anyone who knows the player will tell you otherwise.
Who is this player mr miyagi?Quote:

Shelbourne clearly has an agenda against him. Newmarket players were also threatened by the actions of a newtown player after the match and the newtown manager refused to control the player saying:"let the guards deal with it". where was the b****cking then?Quote:

B)The player and his mother were made aware of the fine last season by the Newtown chairman to whom she complained bitterly.HE WAS ADAMANT THE CLUB WAS NOT PAYING THE FINE UNTIL THE PLAYER PAID IT TO THEM.He then went to Newmarket because he thought he wouldnt have to pay the fine.When the league sought the fine from Newtown they refused to pay it and explained why the player had left.The League ,despite him playing games while suspended for non payment of fine,decided in their wisdom that once he paid the fine thereafter no sanctions would be taken against him.
Hows the typing fingers after that post shelbourne?:pQuote:

So the Referee having a bad day is the reason for this player getting sent off.Quote:

I presume yeah are talking about Gary Leahy if so the real reason he left Netown was the grief he got off Stoney when he missed important matches ,playing gaa instead
Also its a joke that a youth has to pay a fine when he is in school or college
why is it a joke... they have plenty of money to go out drinking friday / saturday night ... if they get sent off they have to take the fine .. if junior players not working / at college, etc should they not have to pay any fines also :)Quote:

not every youth goes out drinking on a friday/sat night. It is a joke that a 17yr old in school can get sent off on a saturday for maybe 2 harmless enough challenges and has to cough up 40 euro to get to play again. Not to mention money for training 2 nights a week and the game on a saturday as well. I know i didn't have over 50 euro to spend on playing soccer when i was 17. Maybe you have plenty of money old git but certainly there are people who this would add financial strain to. The club should have supported the player better in this situation imo..Quote:

Shels, have you ever attended a code of ethics workshop or anyone else for that matter? Participation is key to every child development, and players will only continue to play and improve in the game if their enjoying it. How many of you tell your team mates or manager to f off when they give you a bollocking? i see it happen every week. Unfortunately kids bottle it up and just dont play any more rather than stick up for themselves. This isn't soft it's just kids being kids. I'm not talking youths now, u16 or below.
But i do want to finish by saying shels is a credit to his club and himself with the effort he has put into local soccer. Fair play. However kids are kids, there are better ways to learn a lesson than getting abuse for losing the ball:(
The issue was non payment of a fine.The fine was imposed by the Clare League.I dont agree with monetary fines for under 18 players.The fine in question was €30 euro.The Clare League obviously thought that was appropriate for whatever the crime was.It was the second sending off in the season for this player.If anyone feels so strongly on this they should take the matter up with the Clare League.Newtown did and their feelings were obviously ignored.Newtown did not decide this amount.Newtown do not pay any players fines.It is a club rule.If other clubs pay players fines that is their business.There was no fall out between Newtown and that player over any issues as has been suggested.This is fabrication.He decided to move to Newmarket because he thought he would not have to pay the fine if he did that.Either way he has only a passing commitment to football or football clubs in Clare .Newtowns commitments are to football.His interest lie elsewhere.He has always made that clear.
