Could you name a worse Premier Division pitch and dont say Rovers because I would pick that pitch over Carrigs any dayQuote:

Dead right I would, at least on those pitches you know you are not going to sink into the ground. Carrig was built on a bog, and as the saying goes, once a bog, always a bogQuote:

Personally i think shannoside pitch in foynes is horrible , deffinatley worse than carrig. Although i don't think glinis a bad pitch i just hate the surface grass is always too high , the whole field back there actually depreses me
Its an even longer way off being a good field. How ''have it'' can have ''Carrig'' and the word ''good'' in the same sentence is just beyond comprehensionQuote:

Ya I suppose you are right, Knockaderrys pitch is worse so Carrigs pitch is not the worst in the Desmond League, Its the second worsed, Ha Ha.Quote:

It should also be noted that the Premier game between Glin Rovers and Askeaton and the Division 1 League Cup game between Killeaney and St Itas were also called off due to snow.
All around the same area. Safety of players and supporters has to come first. Well said Western Gale !Quote:

Thats very tongue in cheek, I wouldnt say Carrig have the best pitch in the league, Broadford, Killeaney, Athea, Askeaton, Bally Rovers, Glantine, Ballingarry all have very good pitches but there are far worse pitches in all the divisions than Carrig (- correct me if I'm wrong but there is at least ten clubs in the league that dont have proper dressing rooms -) As was stated in an earlier post there has seldom being a game being called off in Carrig (outside of blanket cancelations). It should also be noted that they have hosted a good few underage cup finalsQuote:

Broadford are the in form team at the minute in the league so saying that Rathkeale are going to end there chance's is jumping the gun a bit. It should be a very close game and its great to see Broadford back in contention again for the league after so many season's just going through the motions.Quote:

Premier
Its quite tight at the top at the moment but Rathkeale are still fairly clear from the rest of the pack
Winners- Ratkeale (will be there first leauge title in since 04/05 season)
Runners up-Newcastle (I can see them having a strong run in)
Relegation-Carrig
Ballingary(they'll bounce back next year)
Division 1
A big change from Shannonsides runaway last year this leauge is being strongly contested between Adare Kileaney Kildimo Old mill if Athea and Glantine win there games in hand there in with a shout also.At the Bottom Newcastle and abbeyfeale along with Feenagh are battling the drop together.
Winners-Kileaney (Good side have a nice few Glin boys playing well.
Runners up-Kildimo(should kick on from Munster junior Loss)
Relegation-Feenagh
Abbeyfeale
Division 2
This division is a tough one to call but ill stick my neck out.The Gaa coming back soon may upset this division.
Winners-Ratkeale B(They play some lovely football)
Kilcornan
Relegation-Ballysteen (I thought they would do better this year)
Ballingarry B(double relegation for them i feel.)
Division 3 a Divison 3 b
Winners-Creeves(would be nice to see them push back up the league, they nearly fell off the radar) Winners-Granagh(same as i sated for Creeves)
Asketon B Adare b
Lads could someone clarify is the winner and runner up in division 3 put into Play-Offs with each other or do 1 winner from each group just go up.
