Will Askeaton and Rovers be played this weekend?
Best of luck to both teams tonight. Hope it is a good game
Should be a good final tonight, 2 good footballing sides. I fancy NCW if all their players play to their ability. Rathkeale could get at NCW down the left where NCW are not the strongest though. Lets hope for a good game!
Newcastle West 1 Rathkeale 0 (Tossie Butler)
Newcastle West 1 Rathkeale 1 (Barry O'Shaughnessy)
Newcastle West 1 Rathkeale 2 (Tomas Quilligan)
Newcastle West 2 Rathkeale 2 (Tony Quaid)
Newcastle West 3 Rathkeale 2 (Daniel Power pen). Barry O'Shaughnessy s/o
Newcastle West 4 Rathkeale 2 (Tony Quaid)
Newcastle West 5 Rathkeale 2 (Gary Shanahaan)
Full time Newcastle West 5 Rathkeale 2
Was at the game very entertaining first half....the sending off before half time was always going to make things difficult but I thaught NCW were worthy winners in the end.... they have a very good record in the Desmond Cup
Match was well handeld by Liam O'Connor
pitch looked fantastic but I thaught 10 euro for entry was way over the top was it not a 5 euro last year?

What was the sending off for ? Last man back ? Deserved red card ?
Handball on the line. Stopped a certain goal. Unfortunate, but nothing the ref could doQuote:

It was 10 euro as well last year, i must say that the admission at the gate of 10 euro is an absolute joke, sumting the league will seriously have to look atQuote:

What kind of crowd was at the Desmond Cup Final ?
It was a good crowd but I'd say the weather kinda stopped people from going..the stand was full and there was a good crowd around the railings
What do people think the outcome of the premier division league cup semi finals will be?? I'll go for a shannonside v Newcastle west final..I'm only going by the Desmond cup performance on both teams..Newcastle west were very good in the Desmond cup final and rathkeale weren't..shannonside are a good team and drew with Newcastle west in both league games..that should e a cracking final if both teams get to the final
A bit harsh on Rathkeale that comment, IMO they were well on top up until the sending off, that totally changed the game and the 3rd goal before half-time made it very difficult. NCW did use the extra man very well and finished comfortable winners after 2 mistakes by Rathkeale in the 2nd half. I'd fancy them to bounce back against shannonside to set up a replay v NCW.Quote:

Quilligan through for Rathkeale's 2nd which he Quilligan scored. I think that Rathkeale will want to beat Shannonside big time and have another go at NCW, who I expect to beat Killeaney in the semi-final.
Also I would like to mention Glin Rovers who totally turned their season around and managed to retain their status in Premier League. Congratulations to every team for making the season one to remember even though I got a pile of predictions wrong.
What time are Askeaton playing the cup final tonight?
The Division 3 final was called off tonight.
Went to watch killeaney v Newcastle west tonight..the funniest game iv seen in a while..killeaney went up one nil with a long range shot that the goalie wud have saved only for the sun being in the ncw keepers eyes..ncw full back shay Lyons started up front and scored a hat trick..ncw took off 3 players just past half time and Noel Murphy went in goals and ncw keeper playing up front.killeaney came back 4-2 with a good individual goal by snow and then from a free kick.think it took a deflection..ncw got their act together and held on to win 4-3
who won between rathkeale and shannonside?
Rathkeale 3 - 1 Shannonside.
Called off due to Askeaton playing a suspended player in the semi-final.Quote:

Good game yesterday between newcastle and rathkeale...both played good football with Newcastle just scoring before halftime,started in ncw left back,up to Daniel power who took on the defence and buried it to the back of the net..second goal was a great chip by Thomas butler from the edge of the box and Jason cummins made it 3-0 with a brilliant header
Is there any update on the Divison 3 Cup final, Surely Askeaton were never that stupid to play a suspended player in the semi final (he scored 2 goals too), If the did they should be thrown out, Anyone know whats going on?
