cobh gone already
Correct Cobh mathamatically allready doomed! Mallow look most likely to follow but they still have to play ballincollig. Could be a survival showdown. Mallow 3 behind collig with 2 games in hand. It would be interesting if the MSL could leave that game until last. Bottom of the table crunch games can be just as exciting as the title winning games.Quote:

My final predication
1. Fermoy
2. Ringmahon
3. Corinthians
4. Leeds
a small bit hasty, think you were having an anti Corinthians day that day lol. good win alright we still have every team to play so a long way to go. If the lads can keep everyone fit and happy we will do alright, great league this year shoukld make for an excellent finish.
I dont know much about ballinhassig, however there results are very inconsistent. The battle between Collig and mallow should be interesting , i reckon mallow have it in them to avoid relegation. Relegation for a town the size of Ballincollig would be huge, were have all the players who had the in the senior league gone? retired or just moved on?
Ah well that's a week in my life Im not gonna get back. Bustin a nut since Mon to ensure we have a decent side to travel to CIT on Thursday night only to be informed by the league late this evening that for some reason (as yet unclear) it's been called off. Three lads were after ditching lectures to get back from Limerick and Waterford, another two of the lads are up in the Curragh and had switched shifts to get free as well as a few others. In my book this is scandalous and amatuerish in the extreme.
Thought there was a hard and fast rule about asking for games off two weeks before a fixture and if not then tough titty. Very very browned off about this. An absolute shambles of a league. How they expect to keep people interested and committed when they chop and change fixtures like this is anyones guess. I assume CIT will have a suitable explanation, but I've not heard it.
A joke, even the Red house league can give you a months worth of fixtures and stick to it. Why the hell can't we.
Rant over
I think CIT have pulled a fast one on ye here, Their college team is going strong in college cup and i know for a fact that they were down to play an AUL team tonight(wednesday) for a friendly. Surely they would not have organised a friendly if they had a league game the next night.

To add even more insult to injury. That is an absoulte shocker if they have gotten away with this bluff. I think we'll just go up there and play with ourselves and score and lodge the result with the league, see how that goes down.Quote:

Crikey you lot are gonna have some congestion. It is great to be involved at this end of the season. At the end of it I know I'll have been proud of us and all the teams we come up against for keeping football as the winner. I've been delighted that most teams we've played have a keep it on the deck mentality. Cracking league indeed.Quote:

The reason I believe this is lets say Blarney are playing Mayfield Friday and Everton know they have Blarney next week then woundn't you think alot of Everton players/managment and followers would go and look at Blarney game to see what shape they are in. It also gives players a chance to get away if they have a week off. It is common sense and I think everything boils down to that. Anyway after my rant.........good luck Sunday.
One or two that were missing last Sun will be back so not too bad on that front. Deffo a tough place to go, we'll give it a shot anyway and try to get the show back on the road after a tough few weeks of injuries and lads off to the states.Quote:

Yeah, totally agree with the points made there. Very difficult to plan for anything really. Supporters, players, managers etc need a plan to work off. I realise it's difficult, but to set a precedent for CIT to pull out at 24 hours notice is dangerous.Quote:

It wasn't an anti Corinthians day, it was an anti complaining day. I had my wife in the ear the whole morning so i had already reached boiling point :-)Quote:

Anything to do with Sigerson week in Dublin Clifford. Just a thought.

it sure would be nice though as per example above
scouting teams that you have coming up is benefical to everyone and there would be better attendance at games across the board
aaaaahh dreamland,,thinks are so nice there
We are taking it as a walkover and hence the game stands as played so the lads suspension is over and they will be playing Sunday. We didn't do anything wrong here so we don't deserve to be punished. We were given a fixture and were all systems go to fulfill it. That in our book is what counts.Quote:

Any game cancelled due to weather would be re-fixed and played within 72hrs on any available FIFA qualified all weather pitch. It would also stop fixture clogging at the latter stages of the season. Example. Corinthians in the 1st div have bearly kicked a ball and Cobh in the same league are relagated and are nearly finished.Quote:

impossible, only fifa qualified pitches i know of are carrigaline ucc and mayfied, the weather we get all wknd games could be called of, what happens to home advantage!!! no go as far as i can see!!
clifford, would make sure that you're players suspensions are over, if ye win match with suspended players, ye will lose points and fined, happened to douglas in junior section last month, check the thread!! could be the difference between going up or not!! better safe than sorry!!!
seems crazy alright about cobh and corinthiansQuote:

Add in Douglas Hall and Blarney Utd.Quote:

I agree, i would get so called "MSL Approval" before playing any suspended players because of this situation.Quote:

As ever we'll roll up into the big smoke on Sun morning as a team and do our best with what we have available. Win, lose or draw we'll shake on it at the end and roll on to fight another day.
May all have a good weekend of footie.
blarnery 1 mayfield 0 another bad day at the office,blarnery were much the better team for most of the game they scored midway into the 1st half and hit the post once or twice,we hit the post late on but never looked like scoring besides that.
Bit of a dog fight developing now at bottom of lge.Quote:

blarney were by far the better team last nite..played some outstanding football in the first half and could have been 3 up at the break..took their foot off the pedal in the second half but always looked dangerous wen in posession of the ball.there are alot of games left yet and is too hard to call who wil go with tramore.think its stil between 4 other teams

I know this has been in for a while but it is ridiculous to be fining players for getting booked. Its an Ameteur game and players are already having to pay money week in week out for training, gear,refs, physio etc. I know most clubs are paying these fines for the players but the majority of clubs are struggling financialy aswell, just seems like a way for the MSL to get money for themselves.
Where does all the money from these fines go?,must be at the very least €100 a week.
I have no problem with a player being fined if he commits a serious offence but fineing a player for a yellow card is a joke, any player who tackles is going to mistime one now and again.
Was at the Blarney game last night and a player was harsly booked for kicking the ball away, should that really cost him or the club €5?

corinthians beat ballincollig today, missed the game but what I heard ballincollig had someone sent off after 5 minutes and it was fairly harsh. Ballincollig missing a few again seems to be the story off their season.
went down to mallow today and came back with a 1-0 win.tough game..that mallow bunch and there supporters are an interesting bunch ha..need i say more
i agree lads the standard of refs in the league is terrible, the inconsistency of all is unbelievable.The minute a bit of pressure is applied from the players,management or the support on the line they seem to lose control of the game.
The munster senior league are a well financed association between reg fees and sponsorship, the fact they fine all players €5 per yellow is a disgrace.
Were is all this money??
