Most disrespectful club to there senior manager I have seen in a while,this job has been offered all around cork the last month or two,all while littleman is still there,if there not happy part ways and act properly.

Wilton Seniors looking for friendly Sunday pitch and referee booked mail me if interested

Ucc 1 -Avondale 3

Arrived at HT it was 1-1.
UCC started the 2nd half like a steam train and had Dale on the rack for the first 15/20, then Dale scored completely against the run of play.
They got a third with about 15/20 to go and that was it really.
Nice to see a game played and to be out in the fresh air.

Hall beat Mayfield 3-0 in the Donie Forde also today

Another washout again this week lads, doubt they will be anything played this weekend. ..

Douglas hall 2-3 Avondale

0-0 Ht
Avondale went 1 up through Holland
Douglas hall levelled through Varian
Hall then took the lead through a Fahy penalty with roughly 5 to go
Before comeford scored two late goals
to seal the win
Excellent game of football played by both teams in shocking conditions

Saturdays Fixtures. All 2pm.

Beamish Stout Senior Cup
Ballincollig v Blarney Utd The Landing Field

Beamish Stout Senior Premier Division
Mayfield Utd v U.C.C. Mayfield Park

Beamish Stout Senior 1st Division
Leeds v Wilton Leeds Park

and on Sunday

Beamish Stout Senior Premier Division
Bandon v Castleview Town Park 10.45am

Cobh wanderers with 3 huge signing's with the signature of Martin Deady, Rob Waters and Sebastian Krawiec.

Heard today Brendan O Connell has decided to stop playing soccer in order to pursue becoming the Cork Gaelic football number 1, it might put Billy Cronin under pressure to sign a keeper with Ryan McCarthy the U 19 keeper also leaving to join Cobh Ramblers having covered for O Connell earlier in the season, that leaves them with just Eddie Kenny as a recognised keeper.

Billy will come up with something have no fear

No worries I wouldn't have posted here unless it was 100% correct, big losses for ye, Can you confirm Jordan return?

I knew Billy was actively seeking a replacement for Brendan when he had failed approaches For Keepers Paul Hunt ex Longford Town and Kevin O Brien the former city back up keeper.

Ya Jordan is back. As is Darren Mannix. 2 schoolboy products. Its hard for a keeper to hang about especially being back up to someone like Brendan. But look a decision has been made and Im sure both parties (Brendan and Rockmount ) will drive on.

I wouldnt be too concerned about Ryan. The way Cobh are going through players he could be back in a few weeks.

Before hearing that Brendan o Connell was leaving I would of having Rockmount as strong favourites for the league, O Connell commands a big presence and reassurance for any defence, Jordan is a very good keeper in his own right but doesn't have the same stature as O Connell. Keepers are worth their weight in gold and good ones are hard to find and even harder to replace. I would play Eddie kenny before Jordan because of his experience,kristian dennehy has left as well in my opinion he wasn't given a fair crack by billy,he was overlooked he has resigned with village united. Heard as well alan O Connor didn't turn up for the game in Dublin last week against Firhouse. I think it's advantage Avondale in the league with O Connell departure, although they are losing Simon holland from their panel who is heading off travelling for a year.

Were you in the dressing room that night ???

A good keeper would get ya 10 points a season Brendan o connell and Leary with Avondale are best 2 keepers in cork..if you ask me O Leary is ahead of Brendan but my God what a kick off a ball Brendan has distribution of a ball is top top class..As for having eddie Kenny as back up keeper he wasn't up 2 it while he was at Blarney st never mind say the standards rockmount set for players..

Did my research today and just as I thought you are wrong. In fact it is a scurrilous remark from you.

Rockmount v Avondale set for next Monday night, strange time, how's the pitch Glenbuck?

Hi Razor was out on thier astro pitch last night for kick around with lads from work and had a quick look at pitch before hand Still soft in places but with weather improving this week dont see why it wont be played otherwise it will be on astro as im sure Billy wants a game

With no competitive games for a lot of clubs for about 3 months - Is Summer Soccer a realistic option for the Senior League?

Less training costs - better pitches maybe? Shorter seasons? Any thoughts?

Rockmount v Avondale off tonight
