could not agree more and saw the match, ya star could have sneaked a draw cause pike would not put the game away in fairness i's score against carey in goals but 3 points on the board whatever way taking. ye need a greedy striker thats hungry for goals and not one who plays for the crowd to look apon him with a look wat i just did attitude [maloney]

I think it was a horrible decision taking Moloney back after his actions a few seasons back..But ya they need a good out and out striker.Not Pa "White drogba" Moloney..

I couldn't agree more. Pa Moloney spends more time on the floor than Frank Bruno.... Pike need to sign a greedy fox in the box but where do they get one??????

Fairview and Wembley have young lads who were brought through playing the right way. It's standing to them now. Pike recruited footballing mercenaries.. Not as impressive as View and Wembleys method but typical of modern clubs.

have to disagree with you there.balla and regional are both good footballing sides.having seen them at close quarters they are both well able to knock the ball around and also use route one which makes sense when you look at their strength and size up front.
"footballing mercenaries"its junior football,going to happen

Pike are going to miss sniffer badly over the next few months. Not a poacher but scores a lot of goals and causes havoc in defences. His loss more than anything else could undo us this year

My main point being Balla and Regional don't play football against the Pikes and Fairviews of this world. Maybe they turn it on against Star or Summerville and the like, but they resort to aggressive tactics when playing at the Fairgreen or Pike field. Surely they should attempt to play??

Sniffer is vital, but a centre forward he aint. Except of course for St. Pats and now Limerick. But he is being missed up there.

Also, a real test of any team is when faced with Jackman Park on a glorious Summer Sunday. As with last years final. And Pike made a mockery of Balla's "good football" by destroying them. I was there and it was "Football versus Balla"... Not that I enjoyed it. Was hoping for a real close footballing game.

Star were missing, Collopy, Griffin, Joyce, Morton, Waters, Flynn, to name a few, but you dont hear them bitching about it!!!!

Anyway, ye'r missing Sniffer every second match, and Mitchell isn't a usual starter, so ye were really only missing 2 regular starters, where as at least 4 of the above 6 Star players would normally start.

He walked through the Pike midfield without a tackle.
I didn't say anything about nervous moments, I was just stating what it said in the paper by a neutral observer.
I agree we need to improve, but so do Pike if they want to win the league.

I was there alright, Pike had most of the possession in the second half but in fairness didnt really threaten until near then end.

So have we decided to support Fairview then? :)
Though in fairness 12 goals in Summerville's last 2 games makes me favour them! :cool:

Good player, strong and scores goals.
