Are you serious Tedd look at all the work Geraldines put in to their 16s squad last year hoping they would be the juniors of the future and where are they all gone now.

southern kid, pa has been doing the same for a long time and a lot of others players the same too for the first few weeks of the season playing gaa first and there is notting wrong with there commitment to pike or anyone else..speaking from my point of view we got 3 lads on the munster youth team..3 with thomond..2 17s players with munster too.. there just as good at football.. rugby is there first choice but when they can they'll turn up and sweat blood for you just like mac garry mullins and boris to name a few. just thing your being a bit hard on GAA players..

I dont think there is a manager or squad put together, after last year i think there could be a new manager Aidan Ryan did hes best but fell a bit short in the two final, when does the OT kick off.

I dont know where there gone blueboy to be honest so you might enlighten us.I know alot of players are leaving there respective clubs to join pike,boro but they cant all play regularly?my point was that in the premier league at the moment balla,kilmallock,corbally,wembley,carew pk are mostly made up by local players from there area of the town and who have played with them for a while.If these clubs can keep what they have and add one or two lads over the next season or two then why cant they at least make games v pike,fairview,boro etc competitive?

i think fairview will get some new lads in,in the not too distant future.
on another topic,does anyone know why wembley and fairview are playing tuesday night next week??
all other fixtures are on thursday .
seems a bit harsh on both clubs to fulfill 3 fixtures in 6 days

on the sideline issue is it not the responsibilty of the home team to manage these issues i know it is nearly impossible to control people coming to games ?? do the league have any rules on this were do club stand if referee abandons game due to abuse by somebody watching game with no ties to either club but hapens to be standing with or beside supporters on the line. !!!!:confused:

Wayne Colbert would be a major signing for the Boro heard that Jason Hughes is on his way as well.

would that apply to the o'donovan situation my friend?????
strange one if that occurs,although granted they have been playing for boro for most of their career,if i am not mistaken.
colbert is a huge signing if it happens.....
just a quick comment lads,does anyone think, that what(supposedly) is happening with all these lads from limerick returning to junior football ,will have a knock on effect on league of ireland clubs signing young lads from limerick in the future???
don't think mike kerley for one will be rushing out to do them same next season.
it would look like from the outside looking in,that signing for athlone was like a summer job for a student

To answer your first question,no I don't think that's the reason it's probably quite the opposite as pike have made some very good new signings,and to answer the other one about them playing with the boro Wayne didn't as he played his schoolboy with wembley as pike had no schoolboys at the time.I thought you would know that?

apologies so who did his brother play with???:rolleyes:
secondly,they must think they have no chance of getting a game with pike.
and lastly what's your opinion on the race to return to junior football,and the reasons for it????:confused:
25/08/2011, 8:02 AM
theboywonder8

Edward played with boro but as I said pike had no schoolboys,and the reason for players coming back the loi is over in October and as far as I know Conor is the only one who came back,and in fairness athlone is not a shamrock rovers or bohs now are they.and in the limerick case some of them are being blaguarded there so I don't blame them for returning to junior football,

not talking about pike specifically,but previous posters have said that jason hughes and wayne colbert are training with the boro,and i could be wrong again,but wasn't one of the o'donovan's up thre also???
if those players mentioned do go to the boro they will be fair strong this season.

Indeed they will,Jason Hughes was there last year as well,training with them and signing with them doesn't always work out though does it.And ya Wayne did train with them,

Wayne did play with wembley at the end of schoolboys think he joined under 14 or 15. before that he played with the boro. but you are correct in saying that the only reason he didnt play with pike then was because they had no schoolboy team

Its not the first time this has happened though. I may be corrected on this but I believe the same 2 players did the same last summer. They sigend for a LOI team when junior finished and then signed back to the junior when LOI finished. They are basically playing football 12 months of the year. Dont know if there is anything wrong with that.
