We had a challenge against Innishvilla on Sat last and i must say they are a very good outfit. All comfortable on the ball and played some lovely football. Ended 2-2 and in difficult conditions it was a very good game. Barely even noticed that the ref was there. Our pitch held up well. Serious backlog now with all the cancelled games at the weekend.
Our game off today did many go ahead?? Blarney St won 4-1 below in Kinsale im hearing????? Puts them right back in it if its true?? Can anyone confirm???
Ya 4-1 full value For it apparantley
loyalty in football where is it gone.rang my buddy to see how they got on this morning and was told they beat macroom 3 nill.but that wasnt the end of the story ,having 12 points out of 15 and in the quarter final of aoh cup he was told by the club that they wanted their manager from last year to get back involved in the team again.this was the guy who left to go to australia earlier in the season and because it didnt work was back again .working off a panel of seventeen or eighteen its very hard to keep everyone happy and the few clique members that every club has sought to have their old manager back,when the situation was discussed with the current manager who was shocked by this ,he was left with no choice but to resign ,.a absolute disgraceful way to treat a person with 2 thirds of the season gone .what ever about next year it was a terrible thing to do to someone with the team doing so well.remember it was killumney who sought him in the first place and the least mick sheehan and the committee should have done was stick by him till end of season.am i glad im out of all this crap.
When I first heard he took over, I thought he was on a hiding to nothing, filling his predecessors boots. He delivered big time - shocking to be treated like that. I hope Kilumney are not backing the clique who are openly talking about returning to Ballincollig seniors. HILL - you know where we are on Tuesdays & Thursdays if you need to get out of the house!!Quote:

If that is true that's 1 of the most disgraceful things I've seen in a long time. Baffaling.Quote:

Some result for Blarney Street at weekend also congrads to Coachford on their smash and grab that was great result today to be honest i have seen carrick and yereselfs play and couldn't see ye beating them . Congrads and best of luck in next round last AUL team standing .
Didn't know Kilumney in quarter finals of Aoh cup ? when did that happen i see them down to play 3 round game weekend coming ? I might be wrong thou
Thats some carry on down in Killumney in fairness. Very disrespectful to the current manager even though I'd say they didn't plan for it to turn out like it did. I caught the second half of leeside and knockavilla on Saturday, not sure how first half went but leeside should have had six or seven goals in the second half alone. Knockavilla won it in injury time with their first shot on goal in the second half. I thought things had gone really pearshaped down in leeside but to be fair yesterday they still looked a good side
sorry old legs 1 win from the quarters but have beaten the holders on the wayQuote:

if they didnt plan it ,then they have a funny way of showing it,he was left with no choice the clique which included the captain wanted last years manager back involved,this club has lost a lot of respect from people over this mr sheehan included.Quote:

nedge there was no problem at all with the old manager doing the training .,but at the end of the day the club wanted him involved in team selection as well and you cant serve two masters in fairness ,i dont think any manager would put up with that.
i dunno where your getting your yee from cause ive nothing with wilton plus also i think they wer missing paul o mahony that day two. man of the match in the mossie IMO.Quote:

To clarify nedge, the "old" manager hasnt taken a training session yet! That was just a guise to get back involved but when due to appear was unavailable sorting out work etc. Stuff going on in the background setting todays events up for some time now! Looks like it didnt matter who was in the hot seat, once the previous manager arrived back from his travels he was getting back in - has a few influential buddies in the squad who didnt take kindly to being left out. "Used" is a word to describe it!
era don't matter killumney wont win anything big anyway no matter who the manger is their a bunch of show boaters...Quote:

good win for coachford today in carrick any report inswinger?
Shetland you are some HYPOCRITE . A few weeks ago you were praising Kilumney! your buddy resigned or was sacked??
freddie your back .look we all know you have a hidden agenda against us,he was shafted and given no choice ok simple as that,ask players at club if you want ,he was in charge in victory over macroom over weekend,hill posted himself on the subject ask him.
Not really a hidden agenda . i just dont really like you!!! You were praising the chairman of kilumney a few weeks ago and now he is the worst in the world? What he did to overthehill i dont agree with . I think he was trying to undermine overthehill to be honest and make him quit. But Mick Sheehan is the guy bankrolling the whole outfit so he can do what he like sadlyQuote:

oh freddie the feeling is mutual to be honest and its good to see that you have finally admitted your x ballyvolane,ive known who you were from day one ,enjoy your new venture.
Good win? Thats an understatement Skippy...... MASSIVE WIN for them. Carrick recognised as one of the top junior sides in the country, and to beat them in their own back yard? Tremendous. Delighted for my old adversary Micky Walsh, has done a great job with Coachford since he went in and was left to get on with the job, his way, without interference. Great for the AUL too.
As usual Shetland you prove your knowledge of football is non existent just like ballyvolane are now thanks to youQuote:

AUL job Overthehill?
haha Dixie, after the abuse the last guy got? Worse than the England job!! I wouldnt be so presumtious to even consider i would be in the frame anyway. Yes Freddie, i will def take a break for the rest of this season to regain my faith in football and the morals of SOME of the people involved with teams - although it has been amazing the amount of goodwill i have gotton from friends and old foes within our league and beyond. I Will now travel to various games and be able to enjoy the fare without the stress!
I will make one last comment on the issue to clarify redandwhite..... When it was first said to me that the old manager was coming back i said i would be delighted for him to come on board and take the team for training/fitness coaching as this is the mans daytime job! We already had Ray Claffey - FAI coach - doing the tuesday nights and he could come any thursday he was free. He came to a tuesday session approx 3/4 wks ago to chat with myself and Mr Sheehan where we shook hands and spoke briefly about the team, new players since his time etc and as i had to go early that night he stayed till the end and they had a chat with the players. He was to appear the next session but to date i havent seen him since! and there was always an excuse from Mr Sheehan as to why but no contact to me personally though he has my number, and in hindsight certain little things that occurred are seen in a different light now. Due to the weather we hadnt a game for a month till last w-end but he has since been socialising with his buddies on the team and a few old stagers who are struggling to get a place have been in Mr Sheehans ear. There was only going to be one winner. I leave redandwhite with a clear conscience, good record and an improved squad from which i inherited. There are some great lads out there and i hope they get the success they deserve. As for major trophies.. the two biggest in the AUL are the premier league and the AOH cup...Killumney are still challenging for both. End Of STORY.
I did say end of story but just for you, we had just beaten Macroom 3-0 and everyone had left except myself and Mr Sheehan as we were cleaning up etc. He brought up the subject of how a few guys were murmuring about getting the old manager back ( see previous post) and from there we had a brief enough discussion, dignified i must emphasise but i was being undermined and he was i felt a little embarrassed but i made it easy for him and did not stick around for any idle talk or ifs or buts etc. You could call it a mutual decision if you like.
