Wilton 3 Waterford fc 0 quarter final munster senior cup
That means Limerick v Wilton in the Semi with the winner to play City. Hopefully we can get this wrapped up before the season starts.
I'm pretty sure I saw it mentioned also that if we win it will be played in the Markets Field.
I am pretty sure we were drawn away. There was speculation that Waterford would give up home advantage and allow the friendly on the 17th to double as the semi final. Obviously that no longer applies.Quote:

It comes up again. I'm sure we'll get the blame again, but here you go anyway..... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?sto...00000443810469
I'm not sure why they feel the need.
Oh lord. I really love McClean sometimes, but he can clearly be an absolute bellend at times too.Quote:

I most certainly agree with you there. They should have more cop on when it comes to social media. Especially as they're seen as role models for kids.
I've no real opinion on the issue nor do I care, but I find this viewpoint that footballers are somehow role models for kids as bizarre. Why should someone who plays football for a living be held to a higher standard than an ordinary Joe Bloggs?Quote:

That stuff aside I think that it is a given that people who are looked up to as 'role-models' in a community/football club, by whomever in normal circumstances, do have a responsibility beyond the ordinary Joe Bloggs. Maybe this is blurred in a country where politicians, for example, behave dispicably at times!?Quote:

Or maybe I'm reading too much into it, as it seems Pats v Cabinteely was played behind closed doors. Anyone know what the reason is?
Stewarding / stadium costs v potential crowd ?
Possibly but never been the case for any pre season games before. It's the FAI direction which is curious.
Harps and Derry played a behind closed doors game on Saturday morning, no official games because of referee conference according to our forum
What's the connection between a referee conference and not letting spectators in?Quote:

Maybe that's the marketing whizz to re-ignite the league - stimulate interest by banning spectators?
No refs means not an official game which means clubs can't announce it or risk having the FAI come down on them. I doubt there were actual closed doors involved and if people had happened along they could have watched.
Happens all the time, City played UCC in a similar game this year, very few people knew about.
The refs conference is on around this time every year and a lot of clubs end up playing unofficial games with local refs to get a game in as it is so close to the season (hey referees, maybe don't have your conference in the two weeks before the season starts).
The FAI don't allow fans to attend matches in Abbotstown as there are no spectator viewing points so that's probably why it was called behind closed doors.
Athlone appear to be taking this a little further and refusing to acknowledge that there even was a game. Or who their manager is, what players they have etc..Quote:

That's my Athlone Town Facebook page which is now unofficial. The club has its own nowQuote:
