Desmond league is for West limerick teams, Ballybrown to Athea or there abouts.
Teams like, Croom say, would be close and they could play in our division but Croom is regarded as south Limerick I think, even though its very close to Adare.
Charleville is a fair distance to travel from town to have the game off
Why do they not play in a Cork division??

First of all Rathkeale have to beat Pallas A and if they do meet Shountrade and are beaten there would be a better chance of Tongo going to the soccer world cup:eek:

Pics from Killeaney v St Itas in the first division this morning. Killeaney were 3-0 up when I left and had missed a penalty too. Sean Lynch was running the show in midfield for Killeaney.

Heard ye were all over them for first 20-25 minutes then they came into it. A good result for the league. Looks like ye'l have a few challengers this year for the title.
13/09/2009, 6:48 PM
Hairy Legs

These are results and reports I have heard, the details might not be exact so forgive me if i am wrong:

Shannonside 1 Askeaton 1
Shannonside went ahead with about half an hour to go, Askeaton equalised close to full time.

Ballingarry 0 Rathkeale 0
Rathkeale were way better team, bombarded Ballingarry goal in the second half...Kenrick in goals for Ballingarry was outstanding, some of the saves he pulled off were seriously top drawer.

Glin 1 Abbeyfeale 1
Don't know any details from this match
13/09/2009, 8:51 PM
Ask me tom

Shannonside 1-1 Askeaton

Close game without any side creating too many chance, Askeaton were the better side in the opening 45 but the second half was a very close affair, draw was a fair result.

Two points to make outside of the game:

1. Borrigone is a total kip of a place to play ball, with all the money that has been available through the lotto and grants over the last ten years should there not be a certain standard maintained on pitches and some action taken against clubs for very poor facilitys?

2. Liam O Connor = some ape , this guy just loves to be centre of attention

Ray Lynch

Does anyone know how Ray Lynch is playing with Regional, I heard he is talking of signing for Newcastle West or is that rubbish. Anybody know the Munster Junior Cup draw for Desmond League teams

Its meant to be true alright, I was talking to Eoin Barry who plays right back with Broadford, he was saying Ray was sick of going in early to Limerick on Sunday mornings but that he wouldnt sign with Broadford because he said things werent being done right there and that he had been asked to sign with Newcastle and Abbeyfeale. He also said that all the footballers are playing no more soccer with Broadford until after the football and that they are playing Ballincollig in a Senior football challenge on Sunday morning at 11 so the boys wouldnt be able to play against Newcastle. Its scandalous the way they can take three points off Abbey and now look like they will give Newcastle a soft victory

I'm always saying that about the GAA shur, Its number one this time of year for most clubs. I had this debate about desmond clubs in earlier posts, good one week, no players the next. No wonder lads head for town..........
He is a fine player, still playing very well, regional won't let him go that easy mind you, he is a big player for them

Ya Broadfords behaviour is disapointing to say the least, When I saw next Sundays fixtures I thought they would give Newcastle a good rattle. When at full strength I think themselves and Ballingarry are miles ahead of the rest of the pack but GAA kills them both at the start of the season. I heard they are missing 9 for Sunday between the football challenge and the 3 Lynch's playing hurling with Feenagh Sunday at 1. Abbeyfeale are the real losers having been defeated by them

Oscar Traynor Challenge

Did anybody go to the challenge match between the Oscar Traynor team and Regional last night. If so who played well? I heard there was a poor turn out

I believe so, that will settle down too like last year and the squad will come together. With the economy the way it is lads have more important commitments to think of first...playing ball 3 nights a week is a big ask for some people in the current climate
