And no reason the AUL couldn’t do similar. Would be a nice touch for the league.

AUL is a pub league bar Coachford currently and the amateur looking website reflects this but as you said theres no reason they cant have a decent up to date website at least. CBL has come on leaps and bounds in the last few years and its worse the AUL is getting, wont be long til AUL is regarded as worse then the BL. Looking forward to seeing how Doolans Cow do in the cups this year against the MJL sides.

Used to come on here before mostly giving out about refs but have to say today lads Jay Bazz v Cork Hospitals Graham Duffy was very good. It was a decent competitive game a lot of giving out as you’d expect jay Bazz came out 2-0 winners and with a lot of tackles and bitching I thought the ref handled it very well
DO IT FOR THE GRAM
We will be keeping an eye out on all clubs activities online over the course of the season - and it's OFFICIAL - there will be an end of season award for Best Social Media Presence

Peter Harrington, CBL Chairman, has represented the CBL on all aspects of football in Ireland for nearly three decades and today has passed the responsibility onto Peter Travers, CBL Secretary.
Peter Harrington’s time on the Munster FA began at the start of the 1992 / 1993 season where he joined the council as an independent member, as the CBL was represented by Jackie O’Driscoll until the 2001 / 2002 season when Harrington became the league’s official representative.
Since then, Peter Harrington was voted Chairman of the MFA for two seasons starting with the 2004 / 2005 season, for which he held the position of Vice Chairman from 2002 to 2004. During his time as Chairman, he was presented with a Long Service Recognition Award in 2004 for his efforts and commitment to the CBL, the MFA and the FAI over the years. His commanding voice and distinctive ability to control a room led him to serve on various sub-committees of the MFA until recently.
- Referees Committee
- Protest and Appeals Committee
- Grounds Committee (Chairman, 2014)
- Disciplinary Committee (Chairman, 2000)
- Executive Committee
- Finance Committee
Peter also was an influential member of many committees for the wider FAI Junior and Senior Councils since the 2001 / 2002 season and is a well-known character up in FAI HQ in Abbotstown.

As 2021 begins with the COVID pandemic still forcing a cessation to all football on the field activities, who would have thought this time twelve months ago that not one, but two seasons would be impacted, writes Finbarr Buckley

With Marine facing Tottenham in the FA Cup this weekend, I dug into the history books of the Cork Business League as "Marine FC" sounded like a team that would have played in the CBL in years gone by. What we found was Marina Bakeries FC, who played in the CBL in the 1970s, and had a factory on Monahan Road.
Their tenure only lasted one season in the league, back in 1975/76. That year, Marina Bakeries only won two of their eight shield matches but fared much better in the newly formed second division. In a one round format they went unbeaten in their first six, winning five and drawing one before losing to eventual winners Aer Lingus. However, all was not lost as they defeated Pfizer’s B 2-0 to force a play-off with Aer Lingus at the Showgrounds. Unfortunately they lost 5-2.
Marina Bakeries FC finished the season the with the following stats: 𝗣𝟭𝟵 𝗪𝟴 𝗗𝟮 𝗟𝟵 𝗙𝟱𝟬 𝗔𝟰𝟳
In this period of football, it was unusual for a team to leave after a season but we wonder did the company go under or was it the prospect of promotion to the old First Division to face the likes of Postal, Fords and Youghal prove too daunting? Some might say maybe they didn't have enough dough to continue.. as all the funding had to be self-raised https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/e...1/16/1f64a.png
The Cork Business League appeared on Unity Media Network last night along with representatives from Castleview and Grattan United to discuss how COVID-19 has impacted on Cork soccer over the last year.
Great discussions.

The teams selected are as follows:
1. Fords
