Yea KP need a 3 players id say ,they have been very unlucky with injuries to some of there key players with lead to a disastrous first half of the season with them playing with bare 11s and even given a walkover,don't no about this over 30s comment,think they only have 2 players over 30??
If they get there best 11 out from the start of next year they will defiantly improve next season
PS loved the banter on the thread this season made the long days at work more enjoyable and i love you all...!
Best of luck to Caherconlish and Holycross in the morning may the best team win :), And also best of luck to Aisling and Athlunkard thursday should be a cracking game a 4-4 draw will do us nicely provided we beat Pats
Caherconlish 2-1 holycross: Caherconlish scored twice in the first half hour and never looked back, dominated the 1st half really and could have scored more, Holycross scored a minute into the 2nd half and came into the game way more and gave chaerconlish a few problems with high balls but Caherconlish held on and could have grabbed a 3rd near the end great performance from the lads up front and the right back despte the fella he was marking being twice the size of him good win 1st in 3 attempts in jackman i think, Hopefully we win now thursday aswell and round off the season :)
well done caherconlishQuote:

wento see athlunkard v aisling good game .aisling for the first half hour played very well had one great chance to score but missed it athlunkard scored with a good header at the back post and from there on athlunkard pushed on to win it handy enough must say athlunkard and aisling play some very good football and a pity aisling didnt go up they took off one of their beter players in second half and brought on a fella that really wasnt up to much.. Athlunkard by far have the best defence i have seen all year very well organised and disciplined so they should do well in 1b if they keep their players promotion could be a strong possibility for them well done athlunkard also lish congratulations good to see a country team going up as well..:)Quote:

I think we settled down after that. asling pushed up in 2nd half and we just took advantage on the space left on the counter. I think 3 teams go up this year from what im hearing so how did knocklong get on yesturday????Quote:

congratulations athlunkard on winning the league we (clish) would loved to have done the double but still a good season for us cup and promotion so well done athlunkard see ye next year
think the draw against herberstown killed ye especially when most other teams got 3 points when they pulled out. a playoff would have been nice yere the only team we didnt beat,
ya drew a few too many but it was a enjoyable league plenty of drama and twists along the way and got to play in jackman pk enjoy yer weekend and once again well doneQuote:

enjoyed the game last night,aisling did well early on but once the new champs scored they dominated and deserved to win.good idea to have linesmen too and given villas form inthe last 9-10 games they proved worthy winners,at different stages both knocklong and caherconlish looked certs to win league,so villas surge up the table merits great praise.well done too to caherconlish promoted and cup winners.
if mike curran (athlunkard) doesnt get on team of the yr. its a joke, he scored in every game he played in exept corbally, some goal poacher
sorry to spoil the post but...was,n there a drubbing by holycross?Quote:

every league game... couple of cups (hcross & corbally a). been a great year for us. went right to the wire but the big thing was getting out of the league. 3 strong teams have gone up, but aisling will be back next year stronger than this term i reckon. moyross have come up and we all know how well they are doing, and the lads from the soap opera say they'll be stronger so it would hve been a nightmarish prospect.. 1b beckons for us thank god and i cant wait to give that a crack.
some man for predictions, jesus, have u lotto numbers for wednesdayQuote:

great run to finish. best of luck next season.
Would like to thank all my lads with Athlunkard Villa, cheers for the great effort pre-season, in training and in the games, after christmas you were excellent and you got what you deserved. looking forward to next year in 1B lets try do it all again. Well done to mikey for finishing top scorer (look at me now WH) and to all the lads, slán to Camille whos back to france. And lads ive been reading this all season, and Kennedy Park craic me up, best of luck to them next year, i mean that. and as far as the team of the season go's.... no debating.... there's only 1 team of the season :) cheers KK11
jesus lads, thread has gone very quiet the last few days!! well done knocklong and conlish for gettin promoted and pushin us right to the last kick of the season, see ye in 1b next year. 10 points ahead of us this at christmas says we have to start better next year to keep up with ye. but where did it all go wrong for everyone this year, k'long looked like they were gonna run away with it after 7/8 games. why did conlish draw so many?
Have to say I really enjoyed the league this year, right down to the wire. I think Athlunkard will do well in 1b, we play great football and have a very solid back 4 that allows the rest of the team to attack. Role on August, the ambition is to get Villa to the Premier and beat Star Rovers along the way, though age is coming against a lot of us, we never had a lot of pace so it wont affect us too much I hope. (Where are you now WH and PB!!!!)
Good luck to the teams in 2A next year, I hope Aisling get promoted, a very good footballing side...not like the majority of long ballers who should all be put in their own league where the person who can kick the ball the furthest wins a a tractor or something, I think Holycross keeper would win that easily.
Caherconlish, we will want revenge for the defeats this time around:mad:
Come on the Villa!!!!!!!
must say vision ye had the best organised defence this year in 2a and will do pretty well next year who knows even promotion again because i cant see why not surely your not referring kilfinane as one of those long ball experts:)!! aisling just lacked that extra edge in game against ye and it showed but also in defence and midfield they were very tidy.. now must go through another summer trying to sign a few new players cause towards the end of the season was a joke for us lads going on the lash letting us down and also gaa which affects alot of the country sides so in an ideal world would love to get three or four new players dedicated to just football and no other sport ie gaa would be delighted.. alot of the team lost interest towards the end and its very hard playing alongside fellas that you know dont care about winning a match as much as you do..:( so vision send us on any of the athlunkard lads on free transfers this year and well look after them free accomodation etc free drink ...Quote:

I'd say Castle would scrape they got a good attack, very very poor defence though
My reasoning in for going for Pats is form, Castle have lost their last 10+ i'd say(apart from their final game), and Pats have been picking up quite a few points in the last few games, confidence plays a huge partQuote:
