Tedd dont be encouraging that type of behaviour... poor Rooney could have been hurt :P

Tossie Butler transfering back to NCW, Will Doherty follow him and maybe Declan Nash.

any reason given on why he is transfering back boyblue?

Didn't hear tedd but Doherty going back as well, Are Regional out of FAI & Munster? If so might have something to do with it. I think that they realised that Regional were not going to compete for the league or top cups again this season. Good players though and will be a loss to regional.

got an email to say all matchs are starting @ 11 and 2.30 over the weather alert

They certainly should be anyway, and Star are missing quiet a few regulars aswell (and before some of ye say it, no I'm not making excuses, just stating facts, as Rafa would say), but we'll give it our best shot anyway.............any points taken from the top 4 or 5 in the league is a bonus for any team fighting relegation, so we'd take a point now if we could (easier said than done though unfortunatly)

corbally3-3 balla

corbally 3-3 balla. very entertaining game this morning out in athlunkard.balla came flying out of the traps and punished a very lacklustre corbally by going 1-0 up after 10 mins.(noonan).dave dunphy made it 2-0 after 15mins with a very well taken free kick from edge of box.on 30 mins pa roche was put free on the edge of the box and buried a low hard shot into the bottom corner to make it 3-0.at this stage balla looked like they were going to win very handy before shane cox put in a great cross on the break for ian o donoghue to finish a well taken header on 35mins.balla went in 3-1 up at halftime. corbally came out flying in the second half and really put balla under pressure from the off.james ryan and dave o gorman came on as subs and gave corbally a boost going forward.on 55mins shane cox finished well on the back post after a good cross from ken neylon to make it 3-2.balla upped it a gear and came close to increasing the lead on 60mins when jimmy fyffe (in goal for second half for the injured mark healy) made a great one handed save from a rocket of a shot by pa roche.a real battle in the last 30mins ensued with both teams going for it.corbally came close to equalising on 75mins when jason o brien had a long range effort saved very well by balla keeper.corbally got the equaliser on 88mins through ronan sherlock and were unlucky not to win on 90mins when jason o brien had an effort ruled out for offside. a draw was fair result for a finish although balla will be disapointed to have had dave dunphy sent off on 90 mins for what was a harsh red card in my opinion by ref mike weldon.

Janesboro 2 - 3 Mungret

Big three points for Mungret this morning, espeicially given we had alot of players out and were definately without 4 starters at least. Boro started well and scored through a def pen after about 25mins. (Glasheen took it) Mungret had a good few chances and deservedly equalised through McNicholas after 40mins. The second have was a very good contest. Boro scored a free kick with about 20 mins left. Mungret started to push and to be fair Boro could of got one or two on the break but Mungret got level when Ger Burke swiveled and shot with about 10 left. We won it with 2 or 3 minutes left again through Keith McNicholas. Not much in it but a great result for us. Finally, the boro pitch was unreal this morning - definately think its the best pitch in town.

Table updated above

poor result for the boro 4pts away from the bottom two.

Balla in 4th and they are only 5points off the bottom two.

You must be some sort of a genius to have figured that one out:lamp:

poor result, if you dont take your chances that is what happens....
my compliments on your mathematical skills.

Lads, just got word that Tom power Snr has passed on. probably one of the best refs ever to don the black in Limerick...our thoughts are with his family who have had a few tough year...

Funeral arrangements for Thomas Power is crosses tomorrow night 4.30-6pm
and our lady of Loudres church Friday at 11am.

Hi lads, just wondering what the pitch in Knockainey is like, big, small, wide, tight? Surface? Cheers

its fairly poor pitch but there a good side plenty of talent and enormous heart. there pitch is near bruff co limerick a difficult side to beat on there own patch

anyone hear that all games off the weekend.

Bout as competitive as the Desmond league at this stage....Agree Pike and View miles ahead and will only get stronger. Regional and Boro gone backwards which is a pity.. Regional are a joke of a club if you ask me. They are a golf society playing soccer..Some players returned to there roots ( from regional) and realised too many mediocre players in there thinking they are GOD...Ye know who i'm on bout !!!

lads its easily say pike and the view are miles ahead.but if everyone stuck to their own it would be a better league.

the way things are going that gap between pike,view and the rest will widen especially where pike are concerned,bar one or two almost all players leaving leag of ireland locally are gone or will go to pike so hard to compete with that.the standard of football in the premier is at one of its worst periods ever and the difference in points total between the top two and the rest will make interesting reading at seasons end.

get rid of pike and fairview and you will be left with a average league to be honest. when was the last time, a team outside pike and fairview to win a munster or national cup (at junior level).

if the players they have are of league of ireland standard then the players should sign with LOI clubs.....not try and convert a club due to the players it has now....

i agree with you lad but if fairview or pike hadnt the league of ireland players they wouldnt be winning those.fairview beat us 3 0 last year in quarter final of fai.i reckon if they hadnt their league of ireland players we could have got a result.thats the difference.i seriously think the ldmc should look at junior clubs signing of loi players and put a halt to it.one minute they are geting paid in loi and the next they can tog out in junior soccer.ridiculous.
