It was Clonmel Celtic I was referring to and I agree that it is a poorer league without Rock Rovers

I notice the Nationalist Newspaper have published no kick-off times or referees for the week-end games of 3rd/4th Dec. The fixtures published are also incorrect. I wonder will all clubs and referees be aware of correct games and appointments? The correct fixtures, times etc and referee appointments were published in the Daily Star yesterday (Tuesday) and are on the website www.tsdl.ie I suppose most clubs and referees take their fixture from the website. My advice is if in doubt check it out with the League Secretary and/or the website.
Would like to wish Clonmel Towns Assistant manager Johnny Mclean a speedy recovery as he is in hospital waiting to get a heart bypass on friday.Best wishes Johnny we will be all thinking of you mate.
Just like to wish Barry Ryan a speedy recovery also. This won't help him at this stage of his playing career. Maybe it`s players like this who have lost that yard of pace that have town slipping down the pecking order?
town were doing fine when barry was playing. he hasnt played this season so the only contribution he has made to the clubs slide is the unfortunate fact that he is injured. how could whether or not he has lost a yard of pace effect the team when he has not kicked a ball. premier league missing some of its best strikers this season with the injuries to barry and paul kennedy
Excellent post Balls, haha how can a lad get the blame when hes been out all season, i think it was just another example of someone trying to have a go at the lad for personal not footballing reasons, im sure he will be a huge help to Town when hes fit and Paul Kennedy will be a massive boost to Celtic after xmas, 2 natural poachers, hard to find.
Jaysus Ian Barnes didn't last long with fairview.
has he left them alrealy,only a guess but he will surely sign for celtic now or maybe peake villa
It was a savage long journey for a game of ball from clonmel to limerick.
any idea who he is going to boywonder8 ???
did he play against regional when view were knocked out of fai or is he free to play fai for peake. peake are in last 64 with a home tie so he would be great addition for them

Balls/Tipp Top, not having a go at Barry at all. He was a half decent striker in his day but the man is in his 30's now with a lot of seasons under his belt so obviously he's slowing down. And as for town, everybody keeps going on about the injury list but with the squad fully fit would they be able to compete with Celtic or Michaels? I think town need a new Aaron Moroney and a Paul Scully to come through the ranks to stop them falling further. And as for the Thurles boys, clonmel is also a bit of a trek 3 times a week to just play out the rest of the season.
Clonmel Town are the most successful TSDL team in recent years but I believe any team that has too many outside players lose a bit of togetherness. The core of the team must come from within the local area and if the posts above are true that the Thurles boys are leaving this only strengthens my beliefs. Stay around when success is on hand but when times are hard take the easy option. I hope they stay and see out the season. Depending what state of mind and shape he is in Ian Barnes can be an asset or liability to whatever team he joins. With the right players around him Barry Ryan will always get his quota of goals and Paul Kennedy's scoring record for Celtic speaks for itself. The league is now Michael's to lose and that alone adds pressure .
The Thurles boys won't be rejoining the club, Liam England and Aoran Ryan are returning next week which will be a big boost and expect to see a couple of other new faces as well
who is liam england megatots?
i knew the name rang a bell alright didnt know he used play for peake before.aaron ryan is a fine center half aswell. peake will be rock solid at the back with these signings. there pretty strong up top too kent seems to have settled in well and michael ryan back
