Our match against Ballymena due for tomorrow is now off.
Are we playing in Wayside tonight or Stradbrook?
Wayside Celtic Fc
Harps play Warrenpoint town tomorrow.
City are 5 nil up in Waterford at half time. Ian Turner with a hattrick.
It finished 7-0, you'd worry Waterford have a boy doing a man's job.Quote:

Town beat 'Cabo' 2-1 tonight. Champions elect.

Wasn't there myself, looks like L.T.F.C. was going judging by his post above so he may be able to assist. Either way I doubt there'll be anything for you lot to be unduly worried about.
Was impressed by Limerick the other night, a top goalkeeper in Hall. Some good passers of the ball and in Shane Tracy perhaps the best player in the first division. Wasn't at the Cabo game tonight so hopefully LTFC can give you the news that they are sh1te and Limerick will walk to the title 😂Quote:

Is Cassidy with Athlone now? I must have missed that one. Always liked him and would have taken him at LTFC even now. Fair play to him for taking on a difficult role as the experienced head in their squad.
I was quite impressed with this McEleney lad who made his competitive debut for Dundalk tonight. He might have a future in the game.
Wouldn't judge anything of tonight's game. Pointless playing a top and settled premier side when half the squad isn't even signed yet. It's the same every preseason we play top premier sides and get a pasting. Can't judge anything off preseason at all in 2012 we get hammered in a few preseason games then went on to lose out on promotion in the final play off game.
Cork had a near full strength team starting whereas we'd a makeshift starting 11. From our starting 11 I think just 4 will be regular starters. And in the second half team to my knowledge four are announced signings could be wrong and of those four, two are U19s players.
Our game against Longford in a couple of weeks will be a test for both sides and should an interesting game.
Our team tonight.
Starting 11: Burns (New signing - Previous Waterford United & Cork), Reidy (Re-signed former U19s), Mackay (Re-signed former U19s), Garabaldi (Trialist), Dermondy (New signing - Previous Wexford), Osario (Trialist), Murphy (Re-signed - Former Cork U19s), David O Leary (Trialist), O Connor (Re-signed - Currently U19s), Norton (Trialist), Unnamed Striker (Trialist).
Bench: Bulter (New signing - Currently U19s), McGuire (New U19s player), Birdsall (Re-signed), O'Brien (Trialist), Croke (Re-signed, been injured last two years good to see the lad back to full fitness), Buckley (Re-signed - Currently U19s).
This signed players weren't in the squad at all: McAlevey (Re-signed - Previously Cork U19s), Broaders, (New Signing - Previously Wexford), Chambers (New Signing - Previously Bray), Gorman (New Signing - Previous Athlone), Byrne (New signing - Previous Athlone), Roddy Jr (New signing)
We will be out for blood, you ended our undefeated streak in pre season last season. Prepare yourselves.Quote:

Alls I know is that it's Tom Bellew Avenue 3G pitch, so I assume it's somewhere on Tom Bellew Avenue.Quote:

It's the Council all-weather pitch at Muirhevnamore - off Tom Bellew AveQuote:

Apparently, the game ended up not going ahead. Either that, or Warrenpoint weren't playing.
Being from the north they'd probably booked family holidays.Quote:

first half nothin to add. second half was very competitive. Cabo gave us a good game. our first goal was the peno by Kealon Dillon which resulted in needless fouling of us in the penalty area. cabinteely deservedly equalised due to lax defending on our part and they couldnt miss it. But Kaleem Simon scored a screamer outside the box with practically the last kick of the game -it was goin in the whole way. Thought Aaron Brilly was superb for Cabo when he came on.
First Division Champions 2016 Limerick FC won a great moral victory today allowing premier division also rans bray wanderers a morale boosting 2 0 win.
Hehe loving the North Korea style posts!
Brays pitch is a disgrace.
Must have spent all the pitch cash on a perimeter wall for the visit of a 1st Division side..
Shamrock Rovers lost 2-0 to Dnipro Youths
Under 23's :)Quote:

Good luck to Rovers, in some ways they are flying the flag. But its seem like an awful long way to go for a couple of friendlies against the reserve/youth team of the third best team in Ukraine, the reserve team of a German second division club and the Argentina U23s. It's hard to see how the trip is to be of benefit to the club.
Conditions in India would be fantastic for building fitness I would imagine having to train and play in the heat over there will get them in shape very quickly.Quote:
