weston 1 -4 Kilmallock
And he didnt even play , willie!!
Joke as right.we had to go in to collect the trophy .obviously We went out on batter after the match lot of sore heads at work friday .Saturday or sunday wud have been better.
As for our lineup , its true we gave everybody a run out.As u know Grinder/jofspring we had a huge squad of players it seemed only right to give everyone a chance considering it was a dead rubber. I told u we would beat char, never said we wud beat weston .I can assure it wasnt a lack of effort either, we did equalize, but weston were better/hungrier on the night.I heard three teams might be going up, is there any truth in this.

I would think a match of this importance would have been treated a little better than this with three teams fighting for one spot and Kilmallock treating it like this, they have had a great season but to finish it like this leaves a sour taste in the mouth, Great sportsmanship:mad:

Think someone pull a fast one on ye, that match was not a dead rubber for Weston, they objected to Charleville and with the three points from ye that sends them up as second, the top three will go up but we will not going up if we finish third, we finished fourth from bottom in 3b last year and when the new season started we were in 3a so we will do it all again in 3A next year and hopefully get a better start,

Ye should go down to council Tuesday night and ask why the fixture was changed the rule is that once the fixture is put on the paper it cant be changed unless there is a death in the club.
Something not right about all this every thing happened too fast an objection and a rearranged fixture all in the space of one day.

Charleville 2-1 Wembley
Caherdavin 3-0 Knockainey

.......................Pld: Pts:
Killmallock........22 54
Weston.............22 50
Charleville..........22 48
Caherdavin..........22 47

Heard tonight that it was originally down for Thursday alright. We thought it was Saturday. Presumed everybody would play their last match of the season at the same time seen as they where important games for the promotion spot.

You seem to dislike Weston, I have read a few of your comments and I seen them play on a couple of times and they have a real strong team. They had no keeper for there first 6 games.

No problen with Weston. Just would have liked it to have been clear how the league is panning out. One week we are going into a game with a chance of promotion. The next we are told no Charleville have won promotion so we are out of it. Then we get told Charleville are deducted 3 pts and promotion is back on. Then a day later we are told Weston beat a very understrength Killmallock team in a game Killamllock seemed to have thought was a dead rubber (which actually was not) and have now won promotion and our game meant nothing again at the weekend. If the reason i heard that Weston where awarded the points then its a joke, I could be totally wrong though as nothing about it has been confirmed. I saw Charleville play about 6 times this season (most of the games in the last 3 weeks) and the same players played nearly every game or where at least involved in every game. They gave Weston a good beating in Hogan Park (5-0) with the same team that played us a week before so i'd like to know who the illegal player was that played against Weston out of interest more than anything cause we beat Charleviile anyway so it won't affect our result against them regardless.

I have nothing against any team in this division. All we wanted was clarity on the situation.

Yere better off to stay down and try win the league next season theres no point going up and competing or trying to compete with Kilmallock next season.
Think about it they havent lost a match at home to any of the teams at the top of the league with them in the last couple of seasons and they are going to be the same next year.
If yere the clubs second string stay down and try win a Trophy and then go up when yere ready.
Another thing thats going on now is some clubs seem to be checking the match cards after EVERY match but going up on an objection doesent make you a better team.

Very true jofspring, Caherdevin beat Weston twice this year and Charleville beat them once but over a period of time which of the three were stronger. You could say Caherdevin for beating Killmallock/Weston or Charleville for beating Caherdevin, it was a strange season to say teams beat each other. I think some clubs should just have A & B players signed for that team not use them when they fell they can it wrecks leagues and it wrecked the out come of this league.

Strange season alright. Especially the last few weeks. I agree about A should only play for A and B for B, it keeps everything much clearer. We beat Killmallock out in Killmallock this season but that was in the Cup. We don't mind staying down if we haven't picked up enough points at the end of the season. We beat Killmallock and Charleville once and Weston twice this year, not bad in the games against the other top 3. Our start to the season seems to be what has killed us, too many players missing for our first few games through injuries, holidays etc...

We'll see what kind of a team we have next year blueboy2 but hopefully we'll be giving 3A a good go for the League and Cup next season. :ball:

Granville 1 Knockainey 1

I agree with Jofspring in what he is saying "A should only play for A and B for B", it is unfair on teams in the lower divisions who have to play against players who are playing/squad members in premier, 1A or 1B in the morning and they then play in lower divisions in the afternoon. Maybe if it was changed to something along the lines off, if the players name is on the clubs A team match card in the morning the players name cant be on the B team match card that afternoon if their A team were in division 1B or higher

Could lead to even more match card checking and objections though, and tough on anyone who was a sub on the A team for the morning games

It wont happen lads it suits the Premier teams to have the use of B players and Minor players so they can rest their big name players For the F.A.I. and M.J.C. cup matches.

weston got the three points last night promoted they are.

There are 3 Teams going up in this division who came third.

Playing Illegal players does not make you a better team either. Any club that has an A & B team should be scrutinized! Rules are there for a reason and I fail to see why one team should abide by them and another not!

Are 3 teams definetly going up? Kilmallock def, is it weston and charleville with them? And is there 3 teams getting relagated from 2B so?
