To be honest a better side would have punished Newtown.

a bit harsh to blame bunny for newtowns panicking.. they gave the ball away to much and in fairness bunny did not waste to many passes but a few other players beside him & behind him went missing newtown lost their shape completly but still should have won it handy cheeky should have scored at least one of the great croses put in by johnny okura :ball:

Old git, Im not blaming Bunny for what went on, Im saying it was a strange decision by the management putting him in there, he is simply not fit enough for it, Newtown struggled with him in there.

not blaming bunny.. yet they struggled with him in there ???
bunny should be playing with b team every week to help him get fit at least he would be getting full games and not brought on for last 30 mins ..
also players beside him did not help and defence was terrible for a while so it was not all bunnys fault .. :ball:

I was looking at results since the start of the season and noticed that Newmarket have 3 games played,all of them at home.Their next fixture is a home game aswell:confused:

Will this turn into a battle for them to get players available to play 4 away games at the end of the season.

Also, I know they have a new pitch and all but this can't be good for it, they have a B-Team and under age teams aswell who would use it aswell.

Newmarket have played 2 games so far. The beat Lifford 2-0 at home and drew 2-2 with Rineanna away.

They are however home to Bridge Celtic on Thurs night and home to Avenue next Sunday.

The game against rineanna was played in newmarket.Rineanna's pitch was unplayable so newmarket agreed to play at home.

Hacker , don't be delluding yourself, the pitch in Rineanna hasn't changed in I don't know how many years. Be careful that you don't become the Clare Leagues Dave Bassett and have the unenivable knack of having clubs relegated.

Were Rineanna not informed when the league was starting or were the cattle gone to mart.:rolleyes::)

Still undefeated after a trip to the champions and a trip to the village is a decent start...although I hear Newmarket got a very late equaliser last Sunday so ye might be dissapointed that yere 2 points is not 4.

Yes and it was appreciated , but wasn't there a very good reason.
As Hacker has alluded to is that the switch happened last week was for tactical reasons.

Gamesmanship is different.

I drove past Rineanna pitch the other day aswell and it was poor. Whats the story, is it closed or something? The league is a few weeks old and that field is in terrible knick. Why was it let get like that in the first place. Does it not get cut during the summer. Just can't understand why it wasn't ready for the start of the season after all it is where the games are played:confused:

Maybe there is a good reason for it being the way it is,but if not its incredable:eek:

Did you walk the pitch or did it just look in terrible nick as you were driving past? What exactly was wrong with it? The pitch is about 100 metres from the road:confused:

Sorry but there was no way i was getting out of my car to walk a field:),anyway i was in a hurry. What i did see was a field with loads of long grass and i mean loads of long grass, loads of long greeny brown grass.

Did i mention that the grass was long.

may be part of a masterplan to ensure a lot of home games at end of season due to pitch being unplayable due to the long grass you keep talking about :ball:

Bunratty pushed on from this and showed great fitness levels to overwhelm the 10 men.

Bunratty are moving along nicely and the odds of 16/1 if still on offer would be worth a flutter.

Good game to watch alot of nice football.To be honest the game was very tight until newtown got a player sent off.Just cant understand why Jay took newtowns first penalty and scored and didnt take the second one.

Bunratty 3-1 Newtown

3 penalties awarded in the game and none of them should have been penalties. Do Newtown put much time in to practising diving in training cos it won them 2 penalties last night. He has it down to a tee that young fella.;) Although I must say the penalty Bunratty got was no penalty either. Ball struck a hand alright but was no way intentional. This decision led to the sending off which I felt was the turning point.
Bunratty defender very lucky to stay on the field for pull shirt of J OK but got back to make a great tackle... Newtown could argue I suppose this was the turning point.
Have to agree it was a small bit strange changing penalty taker but easy say that now. Cheeky would score 9 out of 10 from them.
Good game though and typical of these 2 teams.
Never heard so much bickering from the line to a referee... Maybe this was the reason for 3 spotters that were'nt...

Anyway on to the next game for both teams. Tough one for Bunratty away to Moher...and Newtown travel to Lifford without Derek B.

what young fella kept falling over in the bunratty box ... who took first penalty . i does seem a bit strange changing penalty taker after he scored first one . good result for bunratty in the end and a bad start to season so far for newtown .. :ball:
