But I see an MSL junior side struggling to field a team cos they cant get players who are long gone off the form? It just makes no sense to me. Thanks for the infoQuote:

Best of luck to all the Cork teams in the intermediate cup this weekend.Quote:

Have they signed any more players, see that they have been put as favourites for the Intermediate Cup by PaddyPower
ringmahon 0 - 1 leeds..bad day at the office
2-1 win for fermoy at casement. Led at half time, they scored 10 into sec and we scored winner 5 mins after that. Held on very well atthe end.
Didn't see that one comin at home for ringmahon. Game on.
Ya Cliff some good defending towards the end by yerselves. We should have went one up very early on when our striker missed a great chance We just couldnt get going in the 1st half at all after that. First goal was to soft our Centre half was turned way to easy. Came out in the 2nd half all guns blazing took the lead with a good bit of play from a set piece but straight away from the restart some very casual play just outside our box let ye in again. Missed another 1 v 1 again at 2-1 we have no luck at the minute but some would say you make your own luck Were our own worst enemy a.t the best of times we'll just enjoy the rest of our season now and have a rattle off the Pop Keller.Quote:

Can anybody explain weather players from MSL can join League of Ireland before the end of the season? Rumors of a raid from Forus are growing around the city- heard that a young Douglas Hall striker and one from Blarney- has anybody else heard this?
I would think players could go but no MSL players made the grade last season, most weren't given ample opportunity to be fair.Quote:

I would love to provide the names i heard however i believe it would be unfair to publish them on this considering nothing has been confirmed. Aparantly Tommy Dunne or his coaching staff will be watching MSL games this weekend so there may be more to come. I am quite suprised myself about this, as i remember reading the echo not so long ago when Billy Woods was talking down the MSl and constantly refered to the gap between League of Ireland and the MSL. I would love to see a Munster Senior League team compete in the LOI to see how they fair. Has anybody thoughts on this?
Fair play NedgeQuote:

Iv seen this guy 3 times before god hes shocking. Hes about 6 foot 6 but hes pure tripe. City must be stuck this year.Quote:

having been an avid fan of LOI football years ago,nowadays i find the MSL games to be much more interesting package
maybe individually the LOI players are better but many of the MSL players would be the same if they were playin football constantly
for an amatuer league i think the dedication of most of the MSL players is top class
I agree totally greengrass. Paying for membership, insurance and training plus trying to balance family, work and football 3 or 4 times a week is a big commitment and 99% of players in the 3 msl leagues dont get a penny for it. We do it for the love of the game. If thats not commitment i dont know what is... P.S. I once knew a guy who drank 7-up at his brothers wedding because he was playing a Donie Forde Cup game the following day. QualityQuote:

Anyone who has had the experience with an MSL club travelling to Donegal for Intermediate Cup fixtures knows how gruelling this is!!! Once every couple of seasons. Multiply that upwards for regular league fixtures and the level of dedication needs to notch up big-time.
I think, without question, there are a number of MSL players who could well make the step up if only based on ability, but for National League, there is much more involved.
Good to see someone with a bit of common sense ball-hop its grand to comment on this forum with off the cuff comments and mostly made in the best intentions but if you havnt experenced playing at both levels its not rational to comment theres a big difference in training on a tuesday and thursday and playing local on a Sunday morning opposed to training 4 nights a week and traveling the length and breath of the country.Plus theirs the added pressure of preforming in front of a thousand plus people a week and beening covered by the national press compared to playing in front of one man and his dog and getting a few inches in the echo if your lucky on a wednesday night.
i reckon its less then 99% and i hope he was drinking 7-up light :) :) :)Quote:
