I was talking to 2 of the lads and they were unhappy with lack of games,management called up bunch of youths for last 2 or 3 games of the season,4 out of the six started and the 3 of the A team players where left stunned just sitting on the bench with no reason why they werent involved.Quote:

too true it is a major problem, the treatment teams from shannon get in limerick is a disgrace...i have also heard from someone who has played with park and shannon town that shannon town get it alot worse...now that is only second hand information so not sure how true it is but i do know how shannon town are treated by SOME referee's and it is deplorableQuote:

not very fair or newtown or park .. players should know by now who they are signing for .. instead of messing around 2 clubs .:ball:
just shows the stupidity of those who thwarted the amalgamation.Some of the guys mentioned couldnt get out of bed for games last year and now they are in a position to pick which club they can let down this year!!!And worse still the clubs have to court them.
Sad situation.Whichever of the clubs looses out inthis battle will be in serious trouble this year as there are not enough players around anymore and it is getting even worse if you judge by the fact that there was only one youths and 17s team in Shannon and surrounds this year.
Somethings gotta give!!!!!
old git every player has to look out for his best interest,if a player knows he has the quality to be part of a team and isnt getting a look in,while training twice a week and seen players not be at training at all,but will always start on a sunday morning,its a shambles,has nothing to do with being fair to newtown or park.Quote:

That true about hoofing the ball and running after it,but the lads down in park arent going to be looking at it like that,for such a big club,a premier club for years,there after getting in dermot finnan in to get to club where it belongs,so the lads who play this season in 1b,they wont be thinking about anything but playing football on the deck and getting the club back in track.:ball:Quote:

What do players have on their mind when they say their going down for a look? They all know what the pitches are like, changing facilities etc. They know what league/division they will be playing in depending on WHO THEY CHOOSE:rolleyes: and dont tell me players will be looking at the quality of training because if their not playing they wont be happy no matter how good training is. Therefore players going down for a look is IMO purely scoping out will they get a game week in week out. The thing i dont understand is all these lads go from club to club together. Surely they understand their is only 11 places on any team. I know they might be friends or whatever but if they all cant make it at one club the likelihood is they all wont make it at the other!
Fair point but it's a vicous circle. Some players work away from home, are in college, work eve etc. While it's true a manager only plays these lads because their good players if they wern't they definitely wouldn't be playing and lads that are not as good maybe training twice a week and not getting the game on a sunday. But i guarantee you those lads will have got their chance at some stage and didn't impress or were just not good enough. The manager will obviously play his best 11 as long as lads are not taking the mick.Quote:

friends dont give a crap about who is playing or not,everyman for himself on the pitch for there club.

friends do care 2-3 newtown lads who went to look at parks set up are all friends .. so it does happen . would agree with not caring about freinds / family as long as i got a game ..
im sure they will try and play ball on the deck which they will be able to do at home no problem....it will be harder for them to do it away from home when they are being kicked and playing on p*ss poor pitch's.(im speaking from experience)Quote:
