Fermoy v Everton.
Game called off. Pitch was very soft, rain was belting down and after a simple warm up drill on the pitch it was already cutting up and would have been dangerous in the tackle. Would have been played in my day, but hey we used to allow a lot of things back then!!!
A tough one for Everton to take as they had travelled, but correct decision in the opinion of both managers, the ref and the groundsmen.
No game next week for us now, if anyone wants a friendly pls let me know.
Ucc v the hall off
Can't believe any team had to travel this morning,some of the best pitches in cork were very soft yesterday,never mind the rain over night.
Mercenaries from Togher. Harsh words. Can you explain in more detail.Quote:

I was up at College Corinthians v Blarney on saturday and the pitch was immaculate - best I have seen in years. Good game of football too, College were mad to play ball from the back (i thought they would get caught out but they kept at it). College won 1-0 and Blarney missed a late penalty, which being fair was never a spotter. Blarney lad slipped and keeper never touched him but the ref was the other side of it.Quote:

College a right young, fit and speedy bunch, mad to whip it wide and run at teams, good side in fairness to them.
I always thought Willie and Chris were from Pouladuff area. Maybe Denis Irwin should have never left either. Go away ow dat!!!!Quote:

Willie and Chris are from Nuns Walk. About a minutes walk from Ballyphehane Park so maybe they should be playing with Kilreen Celtic. Ye are welcome anytime lads ;)Quote:

As for Everton where would they be if they stuck together, not bottom of the league and certain for relegation anyway.detail provided
Maybe if they showed a bit more loyalty to last years manager who brought them to the intermediate cup semi final the so called mercenaries wouldn't have left
There are very few players one club players anymore in any walk of football.
It's probably a good thing that people have the freewill to choose but like everything, can be taken too far.

Semi-Finals:

4 v 3
Quarter Finals to be played week ending January 4th to 6th
Rockmount and Avondale sunday morning should be a cracker especially with a place in a cup final at stake. Should be a good test for Rockmount and especially the new additions to the team. You'd have to fancy Avondale but with home advantage for Rockmount there won't be much in it. From what i've seen of Rockmount they are a work in progress which can't be said for Avondale who have quality all over the park and on the bench. Games like these really show what players are really made of and highlight the average player from the player with that bit of class. League or Keane cup when it comes to these two neither will want to lose. No place to hide at Rockmount Park sunday morning. Prediction Rockmount 1-2 Avondale
9/4 Rockmount 5/2 Draw 4/5 Avondale from PPQuote:

They will have to strengthen if they want to be there or there abouts come the end of the season.
