Very enjoyable game of football this morning, Lifford took the game to Bunratty and dominated in all areas for 20 mins, after this and for the remainder of the game Bunratty had the better of the play, there were no real clear cut scoring chances in the game, extra time opened the game up a bit, Bunratty hit the bar twice within a minute, scored just after this and just about deserved the win.Quote:

He was the Ref on Saturday for the game between Newtown 17s V Kilrush. He did a good job in that game, but, few young fella's on the sideline got spoken to by him tough, he told them that if they kept on shouting " cheering on their team" that he would send them out of the ground all the way down to Supermacs, he also said that he would remember their faces and that he was (like the old Elephant, always remebers a face):rolleyes:. This is the sort of madness that he needs to cut out. Its like he needs to do something in every game he refs, it just has nothing to do with anything so why does he do it.:confused:
Newtown 17s won 3-1:)
I think most people would agree that Frankie has his own interpretation of the rules. He must like being ref for Moher match's I see he is doing their next two match's.Quote:

All Lifford in the 2nd half of et and they had 2 great chances to equalise but poor finishing and 1 great block kept a clean sheet for Bunratty.
Good game to watch though and credit to both teams and ref (P Sutton) for making it a flowing game.
Moher A next for Bunratty in Doora I presume... not sure when they are on though.
Easy win for Rineanna going by the scoreline... anyone (hacker) with a brief report.

big 10 days in the league starting wednesday night.
Newtown has some tough fixtures ahead. if they fail to get anything from those games and results go against them, could end up in the bottom 2 in 2 weeks
[QUOTE=smellyfeet;920043]Have to agree that he had a great game as he did v. Avenue in Newmarket in the previous game but cannot understand why he got involved with the crowd at the match!!!By the way this Newtown team has payed 8 games won 8 scored 34 and conceded 4!!!!:DQuote:

If you were involved in this game. What would your reaction be to such a decision??
would have asked referee what was going on and then asked my club to ask clare league ,, but as it was frankie coote i would have probally been sent of for asking and ended up being suspended by clare league :D:D it is crazy if it happened and a joke if opposition did nothing about it .Quote:

Sorry about the font and size things. just rtead between the lines:confused:
nwtwn 0 nwmrkt 0
lifford won 2 nil
tight at top
in avenues hands now....
Lads can anyone explain to me why newtown played 1 of there weaker teams lastnight when in a dangerous position in the league with relegation,the likes of cheeky,jamie cullen,kissy,pa devanny and ray quigley all on the bench is crazy carry on,sending off was harsh imo.
Good point for Newtowwn considering they played most of the game with 10 men.. Who was sent off for them.
I was not there but hear it was a decent game of football.
Fergal the small skin up front for newtown got sent off,it wasnt a bad game of ball but newmarket were the stronger side,alot tougher also with the likes of o malley,docca and lawlor,if newtown played a stronger team they could have got more than a point.Quote:

I will say that it was a good contest in terms of effort to win the ball, but if thats what people want to watch/play then thats fine. I think that all that argy bargy, aaghh aaghh, stuff should be left at home. On paper we had 2 teams that have players capable of playing ball but when they constantly hoof the ball out of the back into touch at least 650 time in a game it get a bit boring. The pitch last night was in top nick so there should be no excuses for the crap.
Injuries, lack of form etc. We had lost 3 on the bounce so some changes were needed and others enforced. I think the draw with 10 men for most of the game justified the team selection.Quote:

CLIFFORD - by the way did you enjoy the social last saturday night? A great night it was..Phil Neal was in great form wasnt he!!:D

Your very confident about beating lifford,after seeing ye and lifford play,lifford will beat ye end of. :D
weakened team my a***. it was the best team that newtown have put out sice they were knocked out of fai. found it surprising that the management team think they are too good to go down, laughing and joking throughing out smart comment to celtic players at least their players dont have the same attitude.Quote:

Cant agree with you there spudd. The back 4 were back together like the old days and guess what a claen sheet. The middle of the park has been a problem all year but especially since anto white got injured so bringing in fresh legs was important. Young Peter was outstanding best player on the pitch for newtown. Jamie and Kizzy hadn't been performing so why keep playing them. Cheeky is unreal but again hadn't scored in a while whereas fergie was playing very well so again a sensible decision. All players are fairly equal anyway to be honest so it's about performing and i think they did that last night.....

[QUOTE=Brazil Nut;922755]Exactly like the old days,the boys at the back aint getting younger and would have got punished big time if newmarket had young hayes starting with his pace,pa devanny playing left back all season and has been 1 of there best players this year,tom o hare played centre for the majority of the season and has played excellent also,agree with you with anto whyte major loss and for cheeky how is he going to get goals if hes not getting the supply from midfield,personally i just think if newtown are fighting for relegation now they cant be gambling with these players on the bench.Quote:

[QUOTE=Spudd;922766]i'm sure newtown management would have taken a draw as a good result before match started .. as for weakened team !! you are supposed to have a good enough squad to bring players in and rest other players .. cheeky did nothing last week against lifford a good striker can also get goals by working hard , chasing down defenders & create their own chances, plus kissane & cullen both struggled in midfield over the last few games .. its amazing a few bad results and the managers are to blame .. do'nt forget newtown have played the same palyers for most of the season the same players who got them on a good run in fai & munster ..:ball:Quote:
