[QUOTE=bellavistaman;1311476]Yeah we struggled that game a fair bit to be honest was it 3-2 or 23-1 tough game anyway. Same team alright, great achievement.
Bella, it was 4-2 to Springfield back in September. Looking forward to the trip to Cobh.

MJC 3rd Round: Grangevale 3- Dillons X 2 (aet)
Lads, a humdinger yesterday that had everything you could ask for in a cup tie. 5 goals, 1 red card, a goal each disallowed for off side (Dillons in the last min of ET)!! We went 1 down after 30 seconds and equalised from a Dillons OG after about 10 mins. We went 2-1 up after 25 and Dillons equalised with a screamer with 20 to go. We scored early in the 1st half of added time and hung on at the end after getting a man sent with 5 to go. Great game to be fair & we were thrilled to hold out...
Ballyvolane B 1-2 Donoughmore
Our season continues to be a disaster, Donoughmore now hit top of league after this result, for how long depends on Bohs.
Must say Donoughmore were a very well organised and physical side, and those attributes probably was the reason they took all 3 points.
ya they are a good strong physical team who are well organised at the back. Was hoping ye might sneak a draw against them and tho ye might aswell.
So they go top but we have 3 games in hand. But we still in 4 cups so we prob gonna be playing no league games for a while if our cup runs continue..
We have postal celtic on saturday at mayfield all weather at 5. Watched them once this year and to be honest i wasnt impressed with them. They must have had a few players missing because i heard today they are a good team and are well able to play ball..
Has anyone played them this year or seen them play. Please let me know
Dont wanna be boasting or disrespectful to anyone but i honestly feel we are getting stronger just signed another winger by the name of Kenneth lee. Kenneth is a very good player and is one of fastest players i've seen, added to the fact he is good with the ball and rarely gives it away and has serious fitness and has an eye for goal aswell he will have some defenses stretched to there limits in the last 15-20 mins of games..
Well Mario,you watched Postal once an u wernt impressed,heard they were a good ball playin side,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sounds familiar,i watched ye play an get beat by Mayfield up in their place,an wasnt impressed buy ye but it was only one game an il give ye the benifit of the doubt,an Postal deserve that too,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Bluey,honestly watchin the game I thought 4 nil was a bit flattering..Pearse though they defended terribly were quite the opposite in attack.In fact if they had of taken some of their chances they may have kept things a bit closer.
Ye always looked like winnin,but just maybe not by 4 goals.I presume Derek is injured cause its the only reason for me that Derek isnt starting,it was on of Coadys more quite games an I think hes a really good player.Johnny Barrett is a crackin player by the way.A real handful.Both sendings off were bang on,neither the Pearse lad of yer left back tryed to play the ball,,,,,,case book terrible tackles.
But all told ye deserved to win,an I hope ye do well in the next round.
Dunbar took Wiltons scalp,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Parkboy whats the story with gettin Junglegym to play on the 3rd pitch,an Junglegym,we dont have a slope,,,,,,,,we have a gentle encline with panoramic views of Knocka,ha ha.
,
Bella before I forget,crackin result an we are all behind ye,,,,,,,
Well littleman my opinion is my opinion and im not gonna change that, i'm just going by what i saw thats all. You seen us and you werent impressed thats your opinion tho you are entitled to that.
I wasnt being disrespectful to them i was just wondering did anyone have any info on them. I have been told today that they signed a few players and were missing players since the day i seen them so there is my explanation.
No big deal really is it
well as i said wasnt at game so cant agree or disagree with ya littleman. No derek plus any of the players on the bench where injured. think managment decided to make a few changes for this one. just shows strength of squad when they can do this and also 3 players missing on the day. Ya johnny is some player all right in fairness.
I know thebooboys was there so he might also give report
Mario - on Postal
We were in a tight title race with Postal a few years back and played them twice last year. They are a team that if they have their 1st 11 on the pitch they are really capable of taking anyone... We always seemed to have close hard fought games with them but then every now and then you'd see a bad result that does not seem to make sense... But then don't we all have those days.
Also Springers best of luck in FAI - I see on the odds page ye are now 40-1. My heart would love to say put a few quid on ye but my head is ruling at the moment...
Mario I know ye are well able to play ball cause I watch ye in trainin an the Mayfield game was what it was ,just a bad day at the office.An ur right we are all entitled to our opinions,an we can make of it what we want in the end.
Blue, it looks a good squad alright an the attitude seems to be better than in previous years so fair dues to management an players alike.
Mario,
We have played both Postal & Yourselves already this season, we beat postal 2-1 & lost 0-2 to you.
Take nothing for granted where Postal are concerned... they are a good side on their day, very physical and never give up in fairness to them. We were 1-0 up and comfortable but they deservedly got an equaliser late on and we won with a last min pen....
As for yourselves, obviously having lost out in our game 0-2, ye deserved to beat us but I have to say I was a little disappointed, ye got the 2nd in the last few mins when we pushed on but until then I thought we gave as good as we got, but as everyone knows, if you don't convert your posession, it counts for nowt & in fairness, ye scored 2 good goals on the day. Ye have an excellent side I would have to fancy ye to beat Postal but they are the type of team that will plug away & have the players to do damage on their day - so i wouldn't be taking anything for granted
Have Mayfield on Sat in the AOH. Good side i believe, any info lads ?
In case there are clubs on here who use this draw as a means of fundraising, the first draw scheduled for January 27th is postponed until February 10th.

Very harsh Radio !!!.......thats it, im putting in a request that you be suspended from this site for the forseable future.:).
Still in my prime kid !!!!!..............well kinda......
Not sure if I have the right fella in this bloke Nolan but Shetland if its the bloke who got sent off against us in the Aoh earlier this season then I agree 100% with ur take on the matter.Thankfully hes someone elses problem.
Ya agree with those comments on the above player, a good player with a bad attitude, causes his team too many problems because of it. If he matures he could play in any aul side.
Good win sat for us could have scored more but also conceded a few. Pearce aren't a bad side. Also delea was left out sat as he had a disagreement with the management. 20 training tonight roll on skibberein sunday.
Will appeal that there Radio. Heard your in for manager of the year ??
Cheers Mario.........so what your really sayin is that their class !!!!!!!!
As far as i know we are playing on the pitch. the all weather is a disaster if your not used to it.
Just to clarify why the game against Coachford was played on our SECOND PITCH is that the ref refused to play the game on our first pitch(the far off one) because he said the fog was too bad and he couldnt see all the corner flags...He then inspected our second pitch which is along side our clubhouse and deemed that pitch was ok as it was on a hill and visibility was better..To be honest lads none of us like playing on that second pitch as our first pitch is a great surface.The first pitch you see as you enter the grounds is only the schoolboys pitch....Hopefully this clarifys any misunderstandings as to why we played on that pitch.
Good performance last Saturday defeating Coachford,another vital 3 points.
Drew 2-2 with Rylane in 1a last Sunday,2-1 up with 2 minutes left and they equalised.Probably the worst performance of our season so far.
Bella, this is from the A.U.L. rulebook

A registered youth player in the League is eligible to play with all teams in the club but cannot play in the same grade in two (2) different Leagues in the same season.
John Corcoran played for Ballyvolane A against Blackstone a few weeks ago! Know John well - his brother William is playing youths for Ballyvolane as well - another good player
Radio, i have no reply.
To be fair radiostar, ye could do with a player of his calibre to bring ye out of yer impending relegation dogfight, all good players have tendancy to lose the head from time to time, espesically if there being targeting from the off.
But Gary has been developing this side of him well this season to be fair with him. he has reach a rich vein of form and is rewarded by being called up to the Cork AUL squad for training. By having a chat with Niall o Regan, he is impressed with gary.
Every one is entitled to there own opinion, " a Walking timebomb" I wouldnt think so. Gary one of the most intelligent player i have ever managed and play alongside with. even standing on the line. hes a joy to behold. sometimes he has is moments, only human like the rest of us.
Three booking so far this season, two in one match which was very harsh and was witnessed by a AUL official.
Talking bout Cork AUL team. Does the manager watch 1st division games?? We have a class left back playing with us names George kenny, should be in with a shout for a trial run without doubt, few more would be worthy of a look aswell, our right back (willy) is very very good, 2 strikers banging in goals, and keeper is class aswell we have only lost one all season and won every other game, surely he should come and take a look..
Never know might find a star :)
hey lads down to play waterloo sunday morning in MJC. anyone got any info on them??
Thanks
Littleman, the sending off against ye was very very harsh, totally change the game. one booking for a dive whilst he was clearly tripped and second booking for something which had has all baffled. a shoved from behind and he knocked off the player in front of him.
And yes " he is my problem" A joy to work with, week in week out
Had gary not been sent off, i feel that game would of ended in our favour.
But thats football.
Sorry Guv,the sending off against us may have neen harsh,but he got himself sent off,not the ref or us ,he managed it all himself cause he lost his head,4 nil down with 20 mins gone i can understand that at least,but the abuse of the ref later with his so called possie,well if thats what u call class ur welcome to it.
Mario,,,,,,,,,,, its anyones guess who or how the current Aul side is chosen,,,,,,,,,my only hope is that it works,,,,,,,,,,,,a bit like a Skoda,its made of 2nd rate parts,looks terrible an you only pick one when their aint sometin else available,,,,but it gets ya their.
Boo,I only asked a simple question,why Derek wasnt startin,,,,,,learn a lesson in tact mate,,,,,,,sayin he was just carryin a knock would have surficed rather than tellin the whole world that the Leeside camp aint as happy as it should be.
.
Guv I agree the sendin off ruined the game,but dont make a comment like,if he was on the pitch ye could have maybe turned the game,we were 4 up while he was still on the pitch for Gods sake.
The game turned as you call it when Garry Leahy twisted his ankle just before half time(from a ****e tackle by the way) an came off.Ya we conceeded 2 in the 2nd hald Guv but your keeper must have denied us 3 or 4.
Look that aint the point,u posted a comment about a player an several others replyed that he was a decent player but,loads of pace,loads of ability comes with a lot of risk.

Thats a bit offensive to be honest littleman, like saying our team is full of 2nd rate players and will only be picked when they have nobody else to pick????????????????????
Hope i picked this comment up wrong???
