out of the country for a few days on scouting missions, so just catching up with the treads etc. i personally wouldn't like to see newtown in limerick league because it would knock clare soccer back a further 5 steps. the stigma of limerick league been better than clare league would expand (not to just junior but underage soccer) at the moment i firmly believe the standard in underage soccer in clare is up there with the best of most counties. the standard of clubs facilities are going in the right direction and we and i say we because i think all clare soccer teams have a fundamental onus to improve their clubs and in retrospect clare soccer. the knock on effect of the move would have a serious impact on clare soccer. fair enough dayrl, david o'grady, nabs etc going to limerick league because right now it is miles ahead of clare soccer but to dilute it further would ring the death bell and we would never get an even keel or back to par well not for the considerable future.Quote:

the best comment i think is clubs getting together to trash out problems. i know at the end of the day we are all club men and would hate for one team to dominate etc but we can still improve from the starting line to the finishing line in the basic base of clare soccer which will benefit all clubs in the long run. the clare agm teams go in with club agenda's only but maybe we could have proposals made up JOINTLY or something along this line. lets make the first step and who knows by next season the gap will have closed that little bit closer.
