My advice is if in doubt check it out with the League Secretary and/or the website.
Would like to wish Clonmel Towns Assistant manager Johnny Mclean a speedy recovery as he is in hospital waiting to get a heart bypass on friday.Best wishes Johnny we will be all thinking of you mate.
Just like to wish Barry Ryan a speedy recovery also. This won't help him at this stage of his playing career. Maybe it`s players like this who have lost that yard of pace that have town slipping down the pecking order?
town were doing fine when barry was playing. he hasnt played this season so the only contribution he has made to the clubs slide is the unfortunate fact that he is injured. how could whether or not he has lost a yard of pace effect the team when he has not kicked a ball. premier league missing some of its best strikers this season with the injuries to barry and paul kennedy
Excellent post Balls, haha how can a lad get the blame when hes been out all season, i think it was just another example of someone trying to have a go at the lad for personal not footballing reasons, im sure he will be a huge help to Town when hes fit and Paul Kennedy will be a massive boost to Celtic after xmas, 2 natural poachers, hard to find.Quote:

It was a savage long journey for a game of ball from clonmel to limerick.
any idea who he is going to boywonder8 ???
Peake villa I believe,as far as I know he's playing Sunday in the mj for view and going then,it's a long aul spin alright.Quote:

And as for town, everybody keeps going on about the injury list but with the squad fully fit would they be able to compete with Celtic or Michaels? I think town need a new Aaron Moroney and a Paul Scully to come through the ranks to stop them falling further. And as for the Thurles boys, clonmel is also a bit of a trek 3 times a week to just play out the rest of the season.
Clonmel Town are the most successful TSDL team in recent years but I believe any team that has too many outside players lose a bit of togetherness. The core of the team must come from within the local area and if the posts above are true that the Thurles boys are leaving this only strengthens my beliefs. Stay around when success is on hand but when times are hard take the easy option. I hope they stay and see out the season. Depending what state of mind and shape he is in Ian Barnes can be an asset or liability to whatever team he joins. With the right players around him Barry Ryan will always get his quota of goals and Paul Kennedy's scoring record for Celtic speaks for itself. The league is now Michael's to lose and that alone adds pressure .
The Thurles boys won't be rejoining the club, Liam England and Aoran Ryan are returning next week which will be a big boost and expect to see a couple of other new faces as well
who is liam england megatots?
He was centre half on Villa side in 2001 that won the league, played Tipp senior football for few years abd won county final this year with Thomas McdonaghsQuote:

Its just a pity that we couldn't have had everyone available in August but hopefully give the fai a good rattle and with a bit of luck and some home draws you could easily find yourself in a quarter final, next year though we will be looking to challenge again for a league
thats great to hear megatots was delighted when ye won the league in 2010. the tipp cup clash between michaels and peake should also be a cracking game now when its played. best of luck for rest of season
Fair play Balls, have a good xmasQuote:

Don't know but I would say there will be games. I think the inter league crucial game between Kilkenny and TSDL youths is due to be played on Saturday 17th. If so, that will be the only fixture on that Saturday. I would say there will be a full series of games on 18th December. Hopefully there will be no games then until Bank Holiday Monday 2nd January 2012, that is what I think should happen, but, just my personal opinion. Teams behind could have a fixture thrown in during the week after Xmas. We'll have to wait and see.Quote:

Yea its true he walked after the game players should be ashamed for the way they have behaved not training and ringing up at last minute with lame excuses for not playing matches.Quote:

Got the low down on all this tonight over a couple of pints with some friends, lads nobody takes any pleasure in saying this but Clonmel Town have turned into a laughing stock, it is as clear as day the management must leave, the committee need to have a good look at themselves, what is next for Town, fighting relegation battles?
Stelling i hate to agree with ya but your spot on they have become a laughing stock its incredible whats going on apparantley the chairman begged jamie to come back,i know the players need to take responsibility for not training and other things but the committee need to ask why all the clonmel lads have left plus many more and tbh if it keeps up this way they will struggle to field a team next year as there is a few more who have stated they are leaving.They had 6 B team players in their squad yesterday i was told and would not have fielded a team otherwise,incredble stuff really......Quote:
