carrig are a decent side shetland......they have been making steady progress over the years....they didnt produce the form on the day to be honest....and glen celtic played really well....on there number 11 he would make every topside in the aul stronger thats if he,s the same fella wer talking bout....but again he had a quiet game..the keeper for carrig really is a weak spot....so all in all it was a good win for glen....and a open draw ahead for themQuote:

that carrig no11 is a fine player! should be at a lot higher level!!
AUL 1A Douglas Hall v Innishvilla on at Douglas fine complex should be great game between 2 ball playing teams on a great surface one to watch if not doing anything on a cold friday night .
Agreed - should be a good game. Unfortunately it clashes with my x-mas work do so I'll miss it but looking out now it could be cold & wet which will reduce the number of spectators...Quote:

Overthehill, with all your '??????????????' - it seems to make your comment very sinister!. :confused:Quote:

Id put this down to the very heavy rain that fell during the week . . . wouldnt you?, dont know your exact location(west of the city r somewhere), but we did have severe downpours here in Cob-H during the week which would have resulted in many pitch(es) being unplayable.
At least the call was made early this morning and ye were informed before ye set out on your journey(all the way from the west!!!). :p
Almost correct in your comments ruler, but if it was so unplayable from all the rain "during the week" could the call have been made sat evening and the game switched to Killeady which was perfect?
As for my location and informing me before i set out on my journey... i was in the big smoke sat night and travelled down sun morn. Thanks for trying anyway! That would be the main reason in truth for my frustration! No hard feelings!
As I said previously, the decision was made early Sun morn (@8/8.30am) - it was left 'til then to give the pitch every oppurtunity of drying-out!. Unfortunately this didnt happen and the top surface was still very soft and would of cut up very quickly after kick-off!. This would definately have ruined what looked like a good game of ball between two footballing sides.
We would have loved this fxture to have taken place,
1) because of possible back log of fixtures, ie-last Season
2) now go into next weeks big Fai Jnr Cup away to Ballymun, without a game in 14+ days.
Finally, hope you enjoyed ur nite out 'in the big smoke', ud want to get onto your gaffer/teammates for not letting you know bout game being off before you set out from the city!!!.
Shetland, where to begin. A game that we looked like we would cruise after opening first half. Story of our year, not finishing chances. Greenwoods opening 2 were screamers in fairness. Their third was a gift. At 3-2 down, 20 mins to go, they went down to ten men. We missed subsequent pen, our 4th missed pen in row in normal time. If we had scored that feel we would have went on to win it. As it happened Greenwood held on.Quote:

it don't help either when your getting players sent off every week..
Are you blaming the refs or your former teammates sharpshooter?
I see a few nice fixtures down for the coming weekend (weather permitting of course), Wilton should take the mossie easily enough?
my former team mates last two league games a man sent off in the 1st half cant do it at this level.Quote:

That's true, they'll struggle with those suspensions too cos I heard they were down to the bare bones against Coachford, any b team players there good enough to fill the gaps?
they have 5players from last year's b team playing this year,11 players from last seasons team is gone so was always gonna be tough.Quote:

When you come in to Broadford, drive right through the long village, keep going till you see FOLEYS BRIDGE HOUSE BAR facing you (give a knock round the back if you wanna get in that time!) Just go over the bridge which is beside the pub and turn right into COVE PARK, you'll see the sign then. Have ye many coming? Might try have a few refreshments ready for you if you can give me a number....Quote:

Any transfer news out there lads? Killumney well pleased to get Ivan Skillington from Blackstone to increase their attacking options.
Overthehill, I'm surprised Skillington left Blackstone, good signing! Blackstone won't be too pleased to have lost him.
If thats the case then I will have to rethink my pre-season prediction of Blackstone doing well.Quote:

As far as i know on the day in question Knockavilla played an illegal player, appeal was made, appeal was won.
Best of luck to all the Cork teams representing the AUL this week end, we ve a tricky encounter with Hillington in AOH, they seem to be going well in their league.
great game friday night in the cross,castleview played very well in the 1st half unlucky not to score a 2nd,best of look to them for the rest of the year think they will definitely be pushing for promotion.2nd half was all us thankfully didnt play our best but still got the win.
any taughts?
Was at the match Friday night & agree with most of what you said except that it was a great game. The game itself was poor & there was always only going to be 1 winner. Wilton weren't at their best but in the end deserved the win. I thought both keepers looked suspect from every set piece and from every cross & ultimately it was a keepers mistake that led to the 1st Wilton goal. He flapped at a corner & it was headed home. The View to their credit scored almost straight away & held on till half time. I think Castleview were lucky Wilton were so poor as I was expecting a goal fest from the premier club. The so called big players from Wilton didn't play to their ability so therefore it wasn't the best of games. When Castleview moved their big striker back into the middle, they looked better & passed the ball around a it more. Once Wilton got the 3rd I thought it was a case of how many Wilton would get but they seemed content with the fact that the game was over. Wilton had Paul O' Mahony in midfield which was strange considering how good he is up front. He got 2 but would have been more effective up top. In my opinion Castleview won't challenge in Premier A, i think a top 4 finish would be a good achievement as the top teams in Premier A are strong.Quote:

Glen made a few tactical changes and seemed to have the better of the chances for the remainder of the game with John Corcoran nearly clinching it in the 2nd period of extra time.
Must give a lot of credit to the Wicklow defence as they kept Corcoran and Barry o Donovan under wraps for most of the game which was not easy. And a mention for the Wicklow no 9 who looked a class act with his all round game.
It was a great experience for all involved who i must say looked after the Wicklow crowd very well overall and fed them before they departed with best of wishes to them in the last 32.
This is a very young Glen team and i have no doubt if they keep this team together for the next few years they can achieve an awful lot.:ball:
donnie nothing could be done about their goal their left full hammered a volley in to the box hit off our defender and went in nothing our keeper could do,a few of us didnt play well but thankfully it didnt matter,taught we played some lovely ball in the 2nd half if im honest..Quote:
