I think they only had the bare 11, M Reidy missed a sitter to win it at the end, and that O'Dea, Lyons and Brosnan played wellQuote:

Askeaton were 2-0 up and playing well when I left. Willie Griffin & Ray Foley scored.
Willie Griffin was taken to hospital with a suspected broken ankle that resulted from a fairly innocuous looking challenge soon after he scored.

Abbeyfeale 1-4 Askeaton
Should have been 8-0 to Askeaton bar some bad finishing and a poor goal conceded . Abbeyfeale had more interest in kicking players than playing football.
Rovers 1-2 Rathkeale
Rovers deserved a point, They were up 1-0 but gave away a brutal penalty at the start of the second half. Rathkeale scored the winner with seven minutes to go. Rovers could have equalized with a minute left after a deflected shot went narrowly wide. Rathkeale looked very average.
Regarding the GAA issue, I agree.....For a lot of guys in West Limerick, GAA comes first, especially at this time of year with the latter stages of all the championships currently underway....everything is knockout so its taking priority...lads are looking at soccer and seeing it in a league format and maybe thinking its not so important right now! I dunno if the desmond league and the county board could meet and lets say start the soccer a month later so most of the gaa is out of the way and let it run into june when the gaa championships are only beginning....just a thought!? but then that would be common sense and i dunno how much of that exists in either organisation!?:confused:Quote:

I heard the Broadford line got a bit heated alright at one stage, What happened?
its not broken, just badly bruised.......couple of weeks off it and he will be fine
Don't know about that probably a bit harsh the peno but have seen them given before. Regards the average part rathkeale bombarded the rovers goal for 80 mins of the game, hard to play perfect football on that thing ye call a pitch.Quote:

Rovers were unlucky not to snatch a draw with the deflected effort at the end. Who played well in the Newcastle and Broadford match
I watched the Newcastle West Rovers v Rathkeale game too yesterday afternoon, over the game as a whole, I think based on the chances they created Rathkeale did deserve to win, young Mark O'Sullivan had two very good chances in the first half alone, Rovers keeper pulled off a fantastic save for the first one and a very poor header for the second one should really have been scored. Rathkeale dominated the 2nd half posession, was always going to be hard for Rovers to hold out. They could have snatched a point alright in the end with the deflected shot.
I think Rovers will definately take points off teams at home, its a hard place to go and play football.
Rathkeale still dont look to be at their best, lacking a bit in the final 3rd.
Who was up front for Rathkeale yesterday
I would be slow to critisize Rathkeale at the moment.......how many teams will go to rovers and win this season??
are alan o shea+mush still playing for rathkeale?
I would definately agree with you there, I dont think there will be a harder ground to go to this year, maybe Shannonside. All the other pitches are of a good standard and teams will find it hard to adjust when playing on those two pitches. Maybe I'm wrong about Rathkeale, all I'm saying is that definately for the entire second half they had all the ball but I didnt think they created much, the penalty they won was a long ball into the box that was misjudged and their winner was scrappy enough as well. Rovers could have gone 2 1 up as well when the ''exceptional'' Liam O'Connor somehow blew for offside when Peter O'Dea was after heading the ball back to Ollie Byrnes, crazy decision. In fairness to Rathkeale though they have the points on the board and you cant really ask for more I supposeQuote:
