Tipp South & District League 2010/11

Wasn't impressed with St.Nicholas past few games and I do think they did "throw" the games. They only needed a point for promotion in their last 3 or 4 games and went to Old Bridge with 10 players, no goalkeeper and were just messing through the whole game. They finished with 9 men and lost 5-0. The players did say before hand to some Old Bridge lads that they had no intentions on going up. I must say fair play to Old Bridge for going out against Moyglass last week and going to win the game to make sure St.Nicholas go up even though they didn't want to. Bridge could have easily gave the game to Moyglass and let them try win their last game and go up.
Old Bridge would have no problem going up but had a bad start to year but great 2nd half taking 19pts form 24. Bridge don't have the facilities but still would have gone up as they have the ambition to play in the top league. Nicholas have all the facilities and support so why wouldn't they want to go play against the better teams. Think it was bad form.

Well said greenlane to be fair the Bridge have been up and down a lot of times and still have the desire to go play in the premier league more teams should follow their act...and enough about this its harder to run a team because they are a small community its equally as hard in populated areas.

And nononsense has no problem with the way St Nicholas 'behaved' against Old Bridge?? More carry on like that will ruin the game. And if they are so parochial why don't they take up hurling or football. Fair play to the Bridge, not afraid of going up or down and always give a good honest account of themselves.

I'm not connected with St.Nicholas so not concerned about the game against Old Bridge. Simply saying it as it is in the First division. I think a previous poster has said this debate has gone on long enough so I will make no further comment on it.

Lads is there any truth that Kevin Waters is signing for Celtic,heard that this evening,Celtic might be a force next season if that is true

dont think he is with limerick or waterford at present so it could be a possibility. what a signing he would be for celtic, with him and few other new signings they would give league a fair rattle next season

Yea thats a 100% certain he is signing for celtic next year...they still wont mount a challenge for the league i think tho

big mistake waters signin for celtic, celtic wont win a premier in the next couple of years, they are not diciplined enough over a season between this that and the other, surprised waters didnt go back to clonmel town, im sure they would be delighted to have him back

He will not be signing for Clonmel Town, His brother Brian already plays with Celtic and i'm sure that would have an influence in his decision. Clonmel Celtic will not be that far away next season, they only lost one game last season.

Whats happening with Peake at all? Will there be a strong team there next year? A New manager....every time they begin to get a bit of success the lose the rag up there

I heard danny graham is gone from villa, i presume they didnt want him again because i say he would have lovin the job. Good coach who took em over when they were in a bad way. A bit like dalglish im sure he would think :D

so i wonder have they a new manager already got or are they still lookin.

danny graham did his best and would know his stuff. the problem is not the manager but the club. they dont care about senior football and are trying to concentrate on schoolboys. villa are in big trouble, believe it.

Ok you are after comparing Danny to Daglish,and all this after the poem you already inflicted us too,i have serious concerns about your mental health,Villa have nobody lined up to answer your question but i can assure you we will be stronger than Borris come August

the borris peake derby looking good already for next season :)

in fairness, dalglish and danny are very similar, both only after takin up new jobs and did well. both good for a goal in there playin days ;)

I wouldnt be so sure, i think borris will give it a good rattle next year and finish above villa on the league. I think borris will be 4th or 5th and i for one would think that would be a great achievment. maybe a good run in a cup and that would be a good year back in the top flight i think.
ya balls, it will be good to have it back, its one of them games you would miss when its gone.

ya its usually a good fixture to be fair. how do you think borris would react to outside signings football fanatic?? by the way, as things stand i expect borris to be well clear of peake in the table next season

i say they would be kicked 3 foot into the air on the first trainin session and told, WELCOME TO PARADICE :)

Ano, i dont think there wouldnt be any problem to be honest, i would expect the manager to keep the nucleus of side from this year anyway with a few additions...(i havent a clue who though). Interesting times ahead.
Ah villa will be strong again next year i reckon, i think theres a few lads here tryin to fool us and sayin they are finished. Dont be suprised to see a big villa backlash next season.

Good to see Daily Stars man of the match last Sunday was Paul Breen. when one remembers he was very sick all week up to half an hour before the game his display got 9/10. How they chose Keith Hartnett, the Pike Rovers captain, baffled everyone, even Pike. Paul Breen is now recognised as the best junior/amateur player in the country and his performances over the years are consistent and top class. Isn't it baffling to note he has NEVER received even a NOMINATION from the TSDL Referees.

agree totally with you nononense, breen is a collosus, michaels missed his aerial doominance at set pieces in the final as he stayed back for everyone of them, he is the best centre half the league has seen in a long time, on your point about the referees awards, they sure have come up with some red herrings over the years, does not surprise me he is never picked! hartnett was very poor last sunday, thought wayne colbert or colm enright was man of the match

Thought paul breen was definatly best st michaels player on the day.Also thought pa quin was leading line very well and unlucky to be taken off.
