Jesus Boro beaten by Carew this morning, anyone at it?
Injury hit Regional.Pike are without Hanrahan.Walsh.O'Sullivan.O'Callaghan on top of Mullins and O'Donovan and Connery.Maybe your headline should have been.Decimated Pike romp to victory.Be more realistic.
As usual good report AoB,watched most of the game and must say pike very comfortable ....squad ,with what was missing,the strongest in the country,daly and mcgann top players dictated the whole game.regional can,t afford to be without the players they were missing although couple of decent performances in their team.Quote:

Pike look very strong and I think will win the league by a margin , with the players they have coming back from injury fai must be in their sights as well, looking at the boro who are supposed to be closest rivals look like an average squad.
Pike do look like they have a very good squad and look well equipped to give the fai another good go.
Boro were very dissapointing yesterday. The one area they needed to strenghten was their defence over the off season and they didnt, they do look vunerable at the back.
There are a host of games coming up over the next 10 days and after that i think we will have a better idea of where teams stand in regards to challenging pike or staying up.
Sticking with my Pike, Fairview and Boro top 3 in that order.
Fairview look to have good players but the bench is weak and I would think they will struggle if they pick up injuries in certain areas, if pike pick up 9 points next three matches I think that will be it, boro will struggle with the current squad.Quote:

I is going to be tough on Summerville but I think that is their last game in the premier division.Quote:

Look to be improving every week too. Be interesting to see will Moyross turn to Phillip power to come back if they are in trouble after Xmas
I think Philip power will have to come back , Jason o Connor and frank hogan are not getting the best out of the players at the moment and players don't seem to be getting on , I think if he got back involved they could beat the teams around them.
I would imagine the way Phillip left might have affected morale in the Moyross camp
How many years was he manager
very harsh assessment of both Frank and Jason who are only in the job five minutes,and Moyross,s league form last season under their previous manager will hardly inspire the current crop of players.
Where is the very harsh ?? Jason and frank not getting the best out of the players at the moment, and just to remind you Philip had a great record with moyross I.E a great run in the fai and staying up with very limited resources that's no disrespect to the current managers but I think Philip knows how to get the best out of the current players and moyross could do with him back that's my opinion.
It's hard to judge teams this time of the season, playing 1/3 of your league games in a 4 week period is very tough, plus players missing mid-week games due to work commitments. It takes a while for new managements to get the team they way they want it. When it goes to 1 game a week most teams will settle down.
very good post.Quote:

Didn't affect them when they hammered Kilmallock who have gone on to do very well. Managers and strategies don't matter as much as the quality of the players and they've lost some very good ones.
I'd agree with Treaty Gooner. 99% of the time in football a huge amount comes down to the quality in the squad. You can be the best manager in town but if you don't have the quality then you can only go so far. I think Moyross lost a few key players but in saying that they are probably only a few good players away from picking up more results.
The transfer window doesn't close for another 3 weeks so I wouldn't be surprised to see players move around.
A league could be won and lost the first 5/6 games and by the time it's one match aweek a team could be 10pts behind
Jofspring it's down to the manager to build that quality squad and down to the manager to decide what way he wants to play and approach games, teams with average players can win trophies with the right manager, I would love to see moyross in the league next year I think it will be a long season for them but I think Philip power has been a big loss.
I think the way Phillip was ousted could be a big reason for their slow enough start. But at the end of the day they should get at least a full season to see how they get on. As someone said above if they could add one maybe two more quality players they should be fine.
Any truth Mike Considine gone from the Geraldines?
Every truth. Resigned, along with his assistant, after Sunday's 5-1 home defeat to Kilmallock - Geraldines' fifth defeat in their opening six games.

That's true, think he got a shock in the difference it is being a number 1 as opposed to a number 2, Tommy Barrett has taken over the reigns for a few months.Quote:

No he's gone completely, good fitness coach alright.Quote:
