Walked around Hartnett and Wall? From what I remember they(Pike) were coasting in the FAI match back in November when they got caught by a messy goal that turn the game around. Pity he didn't walk around them at the start of the year for Pike's 5-0 win either...Jason Purcell is coming to the end of a good career in junior soccer...And I'd put money on it that Purcell wouldn't walk into the Killester side either...Quote:

that fai game would have finished 5 or 6-1 only for a stupid back pass from paddy mitchell .pike were running riot .true the view dominated the first half and should have had more than a 1 goal lead.but pike bullied them up until that back passQuote:

he will be a bad loss for pike sunday
I never said he wasnt a good player but he is not as good in my opinion as he is perceived by Pike fans.Quote:

both teams need to win,could make for a good game....
heard that fairview were looking for it off ? any truth in that ?Quote:

I'm sure other clubs in the league are missing some important players at certain stages of the season (I know we were), but do you think they can get their games called off??? Not a hope.Quote:

Aren't Pike missing players this weekend too!!!!!
Any idea who is due to be missing - the game should go ahead regardless.Quote:

From what i gather the game is still on!!! ???
Yes still very much on,the likelyhood of Pike doing Fairview a favour is about 100000 to 1 I'd say....Maybe fairview are feeling it having to play Pike on Sunday and Balla on Tuesday?
Its as simple as this..If you are good enough to win games then u are good enough,..It shouldnt matter who u are playing..We are playing sunday and tuesday as well and players will work just as hard in each game no matter who they are playing!!! So if Fairview think they are good enough to challange for the league then they should treat these games like any other...
"Fairview asked Pike for the game off". I thought that the only people that any club can ask for a change of fixture are the council????.
Dont be suprised if the fixture is cancelled.
I am sure that Mr Fix-it will be helpfull if it gets him his five votes...
If it is off its very unfair on Balla, as they play MJ semi on Sun afternoon and Fairview Tues night!!Quote:
