These wins are tough wins and are what Mount need to keep getting in the quest to retain the title. Away games are so tough in this league. No easy games as we found out this weekend and every other week.
Not to sure about the ref overall, but amazed he disallowed Beech's effort as the man on the line attempting to clear it should have given the ref a clue that he wasn't off side!! Good grief.
Era nothing really, if you weren't there no worries....Quote:

Mallow away in the Beamish Cup next week.
Donegal the week after.
Ok if you really want to know, Tom Tully has been robbing Castleview for many a year now. It was 1-0 to Avondale, defender sticks the hand up and handles the ball in the box. Two linesmen and the ref and no penalty, just wondered what was your take on it but since you weren't at the game obviously there's no debate.Quote:

Already after losin 2 centres from last year. last years player/manager and top goalscore. last years player of the year.
Things aint goin right for us but when your down there they never do :-(.
ps Tully is a poor ref and shouldnt be in the munster senior league. makes his decisions based on what club you are and refuses to discuss anything and talks to players like there a lower life form
I hope this doesn't turn into a 'slag the ref' site. All teams will feel that they've been shafted by refs at some stage. However, you never hear too many stories saying that the ref gave us everything. HAHA!
Lets try to keep it positive. The introduction of the linesmen this season in the MSL Prem has been a success. I think everyone would agree with that.
Not all the best refs are doing MSL games tho'.
Gene Stephens, Finbarr Murphy and Larry Buckley are doing AUL games at the moment. These 3 are top refs in my opinion and should be reffin at a higher level. Any other good refs out there? :ball:
Gene and Finbarr? :eek:
I'd reckon it's better that a few new faces are coming into it and agree the linesmen have made for better games in general. I've never complained at a ref in Rockmount games ever, ha ha. I swear...
Except in the RSC against Waterford in the FAI cup a few seasons back when I ran from the back of the stand and nearly pole vaulted the barriers into the scumbag. Now that would have been an assault only seen in South America after the raping he gave us that night. We'd have won the cup that year.
Rockmount win 3-2 against Carrigaline in the cup, tough game, gave away 2 pens after going 1 up. Turned it round in the end, scorers: 2 from Beech and one from Buster.
Beamish Senior cup first round
Rockmount 3 Carrigaline Utd. 2;
Leeds 0 Midleton 1;
Ballinhassig 1 Bandon 2;
Casement Celtic 0 Fermoy 0 (Fermoy won 3-1 on pens.).
Beamish Stout Senior Cup second round
Mallow Utd. 3 Avondale Utd. 2;
St. Mary’s 4 College Corinthians 3.
Senior Premier Div.
Castleview 1 UCC 0;
Douglas hall 4 Tramore Ath. 1.
Senior 1st Div.
Ringmahon Rgs 3 Temple Utd. 0;
Ballincollig 2 Crofton Garryduff 2;
Passage 1 Youghal Ut 1;
Glasheen 0 Cobh Wanderers 3.
Bad defeat even for a weakened Dale side.Quote:

Now the battle is on to ensure players can get time off work. Going to be 2/3 games a week from here on in. Ho hum.
With the 35 man 1st team squad ye have sure these games will be no trouble.Quote:

Won tonight 2-1 against the Hall, 1 down at half time again. Couple of scary moments, but keeper and good defending insured that when Oldham scored there was only going to be one winner, Alan O Connor duly obliged with a smashing volley with about 10 left. Another win, not pretty, but 3 points at the end of the day and all that horses***
Tis no wonder Teddy Barry is after extending the shop so. :eek:Quote:

Get off that fence Cliffy, name one team who's going to catch ye? Try and say it with out laughing to yourself!!Quote:

Rockmount won 4-0 away to Castleview today in the Cup, comfortable I hear, but I wasn't there. Think Steph, Beech, Pat K and Willie got em, but not sure. Will confirm tomorrow.
Just want to say guys took some time out last nite (yep euro soccer bores me) to scan your league thread looking for some info (more of which I'll come back later too) and had one of the best reads for a longer time. The banter you guys have and the underline humour with each other does come across,its A1. Boy do you all dish it out but can take it on the chin when your own club has a cropper even if you do go to ground for a while ! Its first class not like some threads were some throw wobblies on line. Though if as history shows you going to be a rebel you need disipline in the face adversity and we know you guys have got that !! You could have the beginnings of a comedy sketch show in there( I THOUGHT OF IT FIRSTT) never mind a home for disfunctional priests, real soccer fans at the grassiest (it does rain does it not) of roots of soccer.Me thinks that it sounds like the female role would go to Physio with the soft hands(hands that do dishes etc)
What was I looking for- as name suggests bit of a freak when it comes to Junior/Intermediate level in Ireland, like collecting records of various leagues. A few years back got hold of book on History of MSL by I beiieve 2 of Corks most reknowned soccer writers G. Desmond & D Galvin (believe they produce programme at T. X for City)(also did Rothmans style annuals on LOI for a couple of years in early 90's) apart from giving a damm good detailed history of the MSL it obviously gave details of the league Champs and R/UP to when the book was printed 1997/98. Ive put your league on back-burner (dont get upset now) pursued other leagues history and what do you know I'm 10 years behind. Managed to acertain last night Rockmount won it in 2005/06 with Avondale Utd R/up, Castleview champs 2004/05, if maths correct Rockmount 2001/2002 (2006-4), Would any of you charming helpful cork lads help me out re your league in giving me details of CHAMPS & RUNNERS UP PERIOD 1998/99 to 2004/05 and for also Div 1 98/99-05/06. OK wise guy why dont I TRY MSL web-page did, but does not seem to be a history page unless I missed it. A big thanks in anticipation of some help.
OK lets chat about the Msl. First of all league administrators crtainly know how to create grandslam finishes, you guys would'nt hack summer football you'd still be at it at Xmas. Mentioned apart from League, know about Ms CUP, AND fai Intermediate, what is deemed to be the leagues blue ribband cup. Know over the years league has covered most of province, though has always been Cork dominated, 1+1=2 re petrol for travelling to get better representation throughout province? Is there not a cup in Munster played for by the various league champs to determine overall top-dog similar to one in Connaught. Call it a province champions league. Or are MSL seen as I take it as top-dogs end of story. Obviously AUL seen as a feeder to your league.Nearly done, take it as league at Intermediate Level all member clubs enter Mun Senior Cup, what is criteria for entry to this cup by non-senior intermediate sides, is it similar format to FAI Cup last 4 or 8 in Munster Junior Cup qualify for MSCUP.. How well attended are games in MSL ?
And finally YES FINALLY, as Cork men I'm sure you'd want to wish one of your own the bst of luck in his baptism of fire as manager of my home town in trying to keep them in the F.L. the board in their hour of wisdom ditched the manager of some 5 years or so and thrust the job on your man. Who was seen as his able deputy promptly threw a wobbly (right out of his daddies repatoire) as it was'nt him who was picked and jumped ship. But I'm sure you'd rather us have a rebel boy than a son of an ex hun(oops dont want to get into troubled waters here). Hey great thead and appreciate any help with request. LETS SEE THE LIKES of FERMOY BACK AS TOP DOGS IN mUNSTER.
Sounds like you're writing a book yourself.
MSL Premier Champions
Rockmount 06/07
Rockmount 05/06
Castleview 04/05
