I think your opinion might not be far off village have been busy this summer with recruiting new players and have a big squad. What about premier A lads?
Premier a division I will go with innishvilla unlucky no to go up last season,contenders glen Celtic and kanturk,the glen if they can get all their top players in the club to play for their top team would give most teams a game,kanturk have the momentum going into the season with their terrific form at the back end of last season that saw them with the first division,dark horse rylane a good outfit and they've a huge advantage playing on one of the worst pitches in cork(that's not a dig at the club) I think cathedral will struggle.
Grattan have a very good 13,they need to strengthen the panel they've two extra competitions to deal with now as well the mfa champions trophy and the cork sports news trophy that will be run between msl and aul teams.they've lost Mark Sullivan and that leaves a big void in their team.
Think Glen Celtic will struggle this year , Inishvilla should win it and I think Dillons cross could join them going up that's my darkhorse pick from the rumours I'm hearing
If the clowns on this stuck to talking just football, it would be a far more fascinating thread. Can someone make up a new thread, and just call it "Let's have a bitch" and people can slag off fellas in there instead? I'd rather read on here "Jesus did you see park are playing 3-4-3 in their friendlies?" Or "have you noticed that Glenthorn or Kilreen or whoever have gone to a 3-5-2 or 4-3-3?" ya know, something actually about football. The things is, some of the more informed, intelligent people out there - I'm looking firmly at you oldlegs - stay away from putting their valuable input onto this cause it gets lost amongst the rubbish. It's nonsense. I don't care who Donal signs for, neither should you. Same as I don't care about refs in a pre season, I'm more interested in how many fellas are showing up and how many teams are trying new ideas and trying to be different. Some things will never change. Enjoy yer forum lads ye can keep it
The best post iv seen on this forum in years second ball.
fair play.
this is gone to the dogs and has been getting progressively worse the last couple of years.
An embarrasment to our league.
Only way to change it is lose the anonymous posting, which wont happen.
Hi I'm Derek nice to meet you paulie
Barthez sorry I can't see your name wink
I can't post on here anymore ;) I'm not prem or prem a sorry
Out watching Kilreen Celtic tonight and I must say they have a serious squad beating Everton seniors 3-2 , willie ahern is back , the two shaz's are there , willie burn has signed and they have a few of their youths playing full time now with them! There going to be serious contenders with a massive squad
Sorry I forgot ... Hi derek I'm Fabian ...
Your ok old legs your welcome any time .. Just some fellas need to be put in there place sometimes when they post some ridiculous things ... Making excuses already he says and a source told me they were hammered ? Any score update on it ... Poor ol Tigers ...
Well beaten but a good run around.
Congrats to Blarney street.
Super team there .
They have another couple of cups this year by the looks of them
Kilreen will blow grattan away and the rest if they keep that squad,no excuses for them this year,o'shea brothers from Pearce,willy Aherne and willy Byrne all additions and had a 17 year old left sided player aswell who looked like he'd been playing years at this level
I do not know enough about the teams coming up into Premier A to comment on that division . Greenwood relegated last year would be looking to bounce straight back up . innishvilla will also be there or there abouts . No talk about the Glen . Does anyone know what is going on there? is it the B team runners up in Div 2 now as the Premier A side?
Kilreen will be the team to beat in premier this year . They seem to have signed well . The management struggled at the start of last season to rotate a big squad but will have learned from that . Willie Bryne to Kilreen?? I thought someone said here that he joined Glenthorn?? A good experienced player but past his best .
Park will be up there as well . They always seem to keep most of the squad and add one or two players so there is always the backbone of a familiar side.
it will be a hard division this year . Harder than last year. Village always a hard place to go . Carrigtwohill are a bit of an unknown . They will have to improve from what they showed in the cup final to stay up .
Have Grattan signed anyone? Or will they stay loyal to the old heads that won them back to back divisions? Some tired legs there that need an injection of youth.
Glenthorn are struggling and have lost some players if gossip is to be believed.
Pearse and Blarney Street are difficult to work out . Big turn around of players in those clubs every year . If the teams gel then anything can happen
Kilumney and Coachford could be in trouble . I think they will be fighting relegation along with Carrigtwohill and possibly Village
Lads crow and Kinger have signed whit blarney St we are happy to say
Was great work out for us missing a couple also , I would never shop in harrods ☺☺☺
Must agree with you Fabian and a nice lad as well looking forward to working with him
Handy player not as good as people make him out to be no speed always looking to play ball over top high ball merchant!! Still tho could be handy seen carrig three times last year two very good performances but the third was horrific in the cross but I say that was a once off!! Still I think park will be team to beat this year
