Just to let anyone know who may be interested. Th 3rd v 2nd division playoff is on this weekend in Doora between Cooraclare and Shannon Olympic B. Kick off is at 2 or half past.
Does anyone know anything about the Cooraclare team, are they bad or just unlucky?
typicall gaa team, depends on who turns up. (no doubt they will have everyone and their grannies for this one) they are pretty big and physical. they have couple of nice players, go 1 up will break there resistance go 1 down and they will battle twice as hard. never seen oly b playing, but if they play football like A team should do it.Quote:

However, they collect most of their points from home games as their pitch (if you can be charitable enough to call it that) takes some getting used to so doesn't suit visiting teams. Most of their good play comes through Christy O'Donoghue who is pushing on but still some operator. Dangerous from direct free kicks anywhere within 25 yards.Quote:

Maybe they thought they could just turn up and a Final appearance was theirs???Quote:

Not at all, bit of a sore head and a late start to the day. Gutted by yesterday's result. After all the work put in over the course of the season we've nothing to show for it.Quote:

I guess we'll have to wait another year or so to get the opportunity to have our revenge on Bunratty B.
Olympic B 0 - 1 Cooraclare
Olympic B deserved a draw, brave perfromance. They dominated the first half , aided by a strong breeze but failed to capitilise on thier dominance and ultimately paid the price. Brilliantly taken goal by the cooraclare striker in the 2nd half, but as Olympic dominated the first half, the opposite was true of the second half, and you could feel a goal coming for Cooraclare as the 2nd half went on. Some great performances from the Olympic side, particularly in defence, but just lacked the cutting edge in attack. So another season in div 3 for the boys, shouldve won the division really but complacency seemed to set in and they idled on front................
I'd be confident Bunratty B will not be relegated to the 3rd after next season... or do you mean Specials B might get promoted in the future?Quote:
