You could be right....im going on the table on the TSDL website, i would fancy wins for Celtic, Saints and Town and Cashel to end a draw and Town to win on pens or in extra timeQuote:

peake villa game also off doubt there will be any game on today
There is no way Tommy Lewis would let any club call off a game before the morning of the game even when common sense told most people matches had no chance. Most pitches were solid yesterday and it went to -8 last night. Thaw is meant to start St Stephens day. Looks like a day to finish the xmas shopping!!!Quote:

Celtic v borris is off aswell.
thats dissapointing now pony. maybe people in clonmel should try to get to the top of the game with hard work like john delaney has done instead of begrudging him and st michaels to be fair he has done an awful lot for soccer in south tipp. michaels have got floodlighting, town and celtic have got 1st class all weather pitches during his tenure and you can be sure fai funding paid some part in all of those.
John Delaney is figure of ridicule in the nations press,all the pundits and experts have a go at him on tv,former players have lashed him in the media and he is the man who appointed Staunton....so for the good of irish football lets hope nobody in clonmel or anywhere else in Ireland follows his exploits :)Quote:

thats not very fair tipp top. the majority of leading journalists are dubs and incase you have never been to dublin they dont even think soccer exists outside of dublin so it kills them to see a man from down the country being the top dog in the fai. we all know the staunton appointment was a mistake but the irish team have made huge strides since and we all had the honour of seeing them train in our own county when they trained in cooke park a few years ago. you ask the people of a small country club in west tipp called st nicholas fc how good they felt to have trappatoni liam brady and co open their grounds that year also. the irish team had never played a game outside dublin until they played in thomond park. but as you say give the ceo job back to a 'jackeen' again sher and we will be back to the old days again.
The FAI is recognised by every genuine sports fan in this country as a shambles of an organisation,they were the laughing stock of world football when John Delaney asked "please sir can we be the 33rd team in the world cup"....we all cringed as they laughed on tv discussing itQuote:

They have always been a shambles including when his father was there and all the scandal over the world cup tickets,so it is never something to boast about being the head of an organisation such as that showerQuote:

I know I was there! Trap has been in south Tipperary visiting clubs 4 times in the last 12 months alone and other members of the FAI team ie Paki Bonner, Liam Brady and Ray Houghton have been here a number of times this year and that is only south Tipp. You having to pull up 1 visit that lasted 15 mins over 5 years ago only makes my point for me!!Quote:
