newmarkets pitch. Head out on drumline road (old main n18 road)there is a crossroads about a mile out (there used to be a 'roll on d banner' yellow tractor tyre at the cross) turn LEFT and its about a mile out the road... road is very narrow. pitch is on left behind a couple of houses and is easily missed but the cars parked will be best clue.....
As for a result i fancy newmarket... this is not an easy place to go. it is probably the worst pitch in the division and will not suit newtown/...only for that reason.:ball:

Ah ok so it's the same pitch the B team play on, thanks. You're right though it is a horrible pitch, for that reason I thought the A team might've played somewhere better.

Well for those of you who think you know something about soccer, we have just lost one of the Legends of the game, having seen him play in the flesh many years ago, I can say I am priveledged to see him play. Forget about his personal life on the pitch he had no superior. George rest in Peace!

Do me a favour and reveiw your posts and then decide who is the dumbass.
I still have to see one constructive or even slightly informative post from you.
Do you even or have ever played football or are you just on the site because you can hide behind a persona and vent the venom that is so obviously burning away inside you . So **** off until you have some idea what you are rambling about

Hahaha...jeeez...dont cry about it!

Only English Football? Pele was told once that he was the Greatest Player to play the Game, his response was no it is George Best. He would have been a sensation in the Premiership, he had the skills and the pace to beat any player he came up against. I could not see some of today's so called Proffesionals put up with some of the punishement George took!

Best players in world

1. Diego Maradona

2. Pele

3 Best, Cryuff

Good story about George on the radio this morning.

He was doing an interview before an international between Holland & Northern Ireland when he was asked if he was worried about coming up against Johann Cruyff. His answer was hell no I'm gonna nutmeg him the 1st chance I get.

Anyway not long after the game had begun George recieved the ball in a central area & instead of heading towards goal he went in search of Cruyff.
3 Dutch players tried to tackle him but got nowhere before he got to Cruyff whom he duly nutmegged. He then jumped in the air with his arm raised to salute the crowd who were going wild.

Legend !!

Mido

Who won this one?

bridge celtic 4
cratloe celtic 3
(0-0 at half time)

Bridge United 2 Rineanna 1, good win for the bridge against a strong well organised Rovers outfit. Rineanna had a few penalty claims waved away, thought at least one was a penalty. Rovers have a very experienced back four who are very hard to break down.

Scorers for Newtown were Declan Mc Donald and Paul Butler.Newtown outstanding in first half but only one up.Even with the second goal and chasing the game,Newmarket ,as always ,never gave up and got a penalty with 1o minutes to go but Newtown deserved the win.

Lads
Can anyone tell me who Gerry O'Connell (ex Pike) is now playing for??
Is it Bridge Celtic or Bridge Utd??

tralee men 3 avenue boys 0

very frustrating to travel down to tralee in bleak conditions and save your worst performance of the season for last 64 of fai. bad enough the elements but to gift a strong well organised team like tralee a soft opener on 7 mins, shocking. the first half was up and down for both teams but tralee had cleaner passing and looked more in control. the start of the second half (and introduction on sean o'meara {late cause of clare gaa training}) avenue had tralee on the back foot for first 10 to 15 mins. only some brillant defending and wayward shooting stopped avenue equalising. then what can only be described as a moment of brillance. tralee forward against the run of play buried a shot from outside box, top corner. quality. (bit like ray wilkins utd v brighton fa cup 2-2 game, more direct). avenue huffed and puffed but that goal knocked the wind out of us. with 15 mins left and avenue chasing the game tralee knocked in a 3rd. in fairness it was like a training game for tralee in the last 15. knocking the ball around left back keeper right back and they could have had 1 r 2 more goals. they have a great set up pitch wise (never knew brendans park are so close to them, like cusack park to aldi away floodlights the whole works) the ref was the best ref i have encountered for a long while. **** even the pub we went back to was quality (the huddle) with an away fixture in last 32 v rathkeale i would fancy tralee to progress and who knows.........watch this space.
so from a well ****ed off avenue diehard i'm off to ask santa for a bit of backbone and maybe even rudolph, a leader.
