Big up to Dave O'Mahony and the Bally lads for given it a right good go.Well done lads.
Tizz dont know whats happen with ye but I hope it comes right cause your heart is in the right place with regards to your commitment to your club.
Thanks krocboyfor your lovely review of our place. A small bumpy pitch with a shed and its quite intimidating.What excellent use of the English language to describe a fellow Cork club.Shakespear would no doubt have been proud.
I'l have ago myself.

AOH 4th Round predictions...
Wilton
Ballyphehane
Grattan
Dillons Cross
Leeside
Blarney Street
Ballintotis
Ballyvolane
Some good ties here.Leeside will have it tough against Passage
and the potential meeting of Kinsale and Ballyphehane looks like a cracker.
Grattan, Blarney Street, Wilton, Park still there too.
Whoever is going to win the cup will probably have to do it the hard way.
F*ck it lads this is a fall from grace! Ye're tipping ballyphehane to beat us at home!!:eek:
Not beaten at home by a cork team in nearly two years?!
We'll be back - dont doubt it for a second.
Ballintotis 4th in 1B to beat Villa , Your havin a laugh
have to agree...kinsale firm favourites at home in this one for me....have ye got a few injuries there at the moment or what....Quote:

Also in the match between Villa and Ballintotis I would fancy Ballintotis
If they have their cloyne senior hurlers available otherwise they'll get beat.
Villa have signed a few senior players from Templemount and are starting to get their act together

I can see the score line already Villa 3 Ballintotis 1-13
The AOH cup is anyones guess,even I would'nt put my money down this early.On current form Bally would be a good bet.Leeside too but I think with Kinsale and Bally now lookin to get some points on the league board I'd fancy so confidence will be high so one of those 3 to make at least the final would be a safe bet .We at the min are to far back to be counted.Blarney street or Villa would be my outside bet.
Letizz an bog if you think I'm loosin my confidence in all things blue an white relax.Its just until your actually in the final I've learned the hard way last year not to blow your trumpet to loudly.Even I learn a little each day,or night dependin on what shift i'm on.So best of luck to all this weekend in the AOH.Pity we could have done with all the support we can get Sat but the fixture list dont care whos playin just as long as it gets played.
Any predictions for the weekend ahead

Grattan United A v Castlebar Celtic

that said, there's no point in wallowing, there's still an AOH and league to compete for so we'll be lookin to put things right, there is a bit of shifting in the club at the mo, losin a few players thru emmigration and what have you (dont eat any floating dogs ben !) but we still have a determined squad who want to give a better account of themselves than recent results have shown
we do need to get a few good games under our belt starting saturday against a fancied carrig team it looks lilke (up at the fort), hopefully we all wont take em for granted ! and it looks like we might get to play our 2nd league game before march so its all very positive really
best a luck to all things grattan on saturday be it o'neill park or blarney i wish you all the luck from the seaside, be confident and brave and hopefully things go well on the day !
does anyone know what the bookies odds are for the prem league at the mo ? we've prob slipped down the standings so might be worth a flutter for us,nobody else seems to be giving us a chance so ya never know, we're the underdogs this year by the looks a things
all concentrated eyes on saturday and carrigaline first, no more sad luck stories from me or i'll have to jack in this armchair commentary, we'll be hard to beat at the fort and wont give up without a fight, we'll be back !
