Avenue drew 2 all last year with them. And I think newmarket narrowly lost in a friendly also. Its preseason lads. You cant make much from games played.
sometimes you learn more in defeat than when winning !Quote:

Disagree with you there Shuffles - Carew are one of Limericks best sides , Olympic are one of the Clare Premier Leagues worst sides - had they gone to any of the above mentioned sides they would have given them a good game , you have to consider that none of the current CPL teams have achieved anything in the National Leagues .
how is losing 6-1 a learning curve - it breads lack of confidence and moral , i hope your not in management two feet !!Quote:

surely when you lose a game you see what weaknesses you have, where you were punished, how limited your team are. Who said anything about a curve, it must be great in your brain, we win we are great, we lose we are crap! btw its easy to manage a team that wins, try managing one that isn't winning!!!!Quote:

i agree to a certin point but these lessons would be achieved in a closer fought contest , the only thing you learn from a 6-1 defeat is that your boxing above your weight , i'd be fairly sure that after 3/4 goals hte head drops and players tend not to give a fiddlers what the final resutl is , they only want to get off the pitch !
obviously its easy to manage a team thats winning but alot of the winning of games is done in pre season and training , i really hope your not a manager
well said planners

planners .. how can you say Olympic are one of the clare premier leagues worst sides before the league has even started ?? they have a decent squad and added a few good players would fancy them to do ok in premier this season and would be a big surprise if the finished in bottom threeQuote:

Hopefully im wrong. .Quote:

they have no underage set-up /youth team have a pitch which needs alot of work to make it playable in winter ? only survive year to year getting (poaching) players of other teams in shannon i would agree on looking good pre season and falling away as season finishes .. but this year i think they have added players to squad to stay up i would take a guess and say it has been a while since you last seen olympic play they only problem i can see is trying to keep all the squad happy as a lot of the lads they have signed would be expecting to play every week.
OG
Many teams in Clare survive as one team club , dont think there would be enough teams down through the leagues if this wasnt the case !
I have played against Olympic last season and have seen them play over the season . there isnt one team in Clare that dosnt "poach" players and its the nature of the beast , lads move from club to club under the impression they are better than they think !
We'll have to wait and see how they get on ..........
Lifford could really struggle from what I saw tonight. 8 2 against Avenue B.
I thought they had a good lot of the tage team signed they should be strong enough..
I'd imagine they learnt alot from that result !!!!!!!!!Quote:
