Haha I've heard some good excuses for a team not challenging for a league but this is the best yet. . We didn't want to play certain teams at certain times.. hahaQuote:

But if they had been more knowledgable of the rule book they could have manipulated the fixture in their advantage, wether they chose not to is another thing.
Good relegation battle going on as well... Lifford, Corofin, M.Shannon, Conolly and Tage all in the mix :)
Tulla are in there too. Tage are safe. I reckon mountshannon and corofin for the drop. Lifford or Connolly for relegation playoff.
Tage are safe and have never been in doubt of relegation this year. Still 8 teams have everything to play for and tage and bridge will try finish as high as possible. Good to see in the league
ha. meant tulla not tage :o
Good game tonight in doora
I think it'll be
Rock 1-2 avenue
Tomorrow
Newmarket 4-1 west Clare
The standard of officiating at the Cup Semi final last night was disgraceful, neither linesmen had a clue what they were doing, Terry Kennedy would have been better off on his own. They seemed to make up their own rules at times
tut tut tutQuote:

Some of the carry on during and after the match last night were shameful. Avenue should hang their heads in shame. They also should have won and rock were lucky to get through. Any reports on the Newmarket and west Clare game?
Rock players resorted to basically kicking anyone in site. Fairplay to them it worked. And btw rock players were just as bad afterwards throwing punches. The officials did nothing. Players and managment from both sides should have got red cards.
Sounds like a great game........notQuote:

Can anyone elaborate on exactly what went on the other night and who the main culprits wereQuote:

Could have sworn I saw you standing beside Eamon O Reilly for the. 90 mins ?? ;)Quote:

Went to my first Clare premier game tonight in Newmarket, great playing surface.
Newmarket played good football although Mountshannon were'nt up to premier level are all. Stephen Kelly scored from a set piece after 7 minutes. I have to say the 2 in midfield for Newmarket were excellent (Michael Crosby i think it was and Eoin Hayes).
Even as a limerick soccer man i think Hayes would would get on any junior team at the highest standard in my opinion, every bit as good as the lads playing for the big teams in town.
Though Newmarket should have won 10-0 it was only 1-0 when I left with 2 minutes to go.
Will go to a few more Clare games I think, standard was better than I expected.
Hayes is a fantastic player, clubs in limerick would do very well to get him. I m not sure if he would go in but I d love to see him give it a go
Eoin Hayes is the standout player in Clare right now. Between Hayes and Stephen Kelly Newmarket have two of the best players around. There is no doubt that they would make it in Limerick as would numerous other Clare players. Will Newmarket lose a few lads to hurling now? Dont know how the Senior Hurling is set up?
Darren Murphy is the best player in Clare no question of thatQuote:

Hayes is quality.
Kelly effective at what he does but wouldn't cut it at too teams in better leagues.
Murphy an excellent young defender. Bit quiet though
Hayes is the best by a mile eoin o brien is a close second
David reidy is some loss.. prob the best player on the OT last year.. defenders nightmare!!
Who does Eoin O'Brien play for?Quote:

Good to read positive talk about the league..
