    Hold on nobody is on here questioning his commitment to the club and yes it is his decision what he wants to play but the management should not have a gaa player captain of any soccer club when they know if both codes clash on the same day as last Sunday the soccer club always loses out and let nobody tell me that if a player was involved in Clare soccer cup final and a gaa final on the same day which one he would pick. I love all sports but soccer is my first and i have seen this thing happen all the time and i find it very hard to take gaa players who have a big name in gaa circles and then lets be honest 99.9% of them play soccer to keep fit swan back in and straight back into soccer.These players should be made sit on the bench and fight for their places but sure that's what we accept here in clare and again i applaud Lifford for trying not to sign any gaa players. One last thing how many captains of gaa clubs would pick a soccer game over the first round of the championship???? NONE

    But does that mean they should forget about everything else?

    No it just means making the league the number 1 priority

    ye won the fai area final in 2007...but thats right ye didn't try win it cause its not worth winning

    maybe you should check things out before putting your foot in your mouth..
    no dig hacker dont be so touchy. dont see how i put my foot in my mouth. you seem abit slow today so i will say again for you, i said ye have won alot of area cups in the last ten years. never once said it was the only thing ye won (i.e. holly tournament). maybe i should put it in facts form for you.
    as i said on here before relations between the two clubs is always good with healthy banter. you wont find any comment made by me having a dig at rovers and all my posts are in good humour.

    As the manager of this club you have thrown your lot in with this time round, maybe you should spend a bit of time learning the history of the club.
    I'll update this next year.

    When Rineanna had the best chance they had in a long long time of winning a proper trophy in the Clare Cup last season they blew it. Fair enough Rock won it out but surely everyone connected with Rovers was very disappointed they didnt reach the final. Last season Rineanna bottled it simple as

    Its been a poor enough start alright this season but on the day they are capable of beating all teams in Clare . From talking to a few of the lads they are really looking forward to the game on Saturday. It will be a step up in standard for some of the Newmarket lads but they like the underdog tag , it suits their mindset .

    By the way where exactly is the pitch , is it up near the ESB station on Fairhill , I think thats the area.

    P.S will you be wearing a "littleman" name tag so we can identify you. Will you be responsible for the soup and sandwiches after.
    I'll update this next year.

    Well if they couldn't beat Kilrush without him, why not?
    Of course if someone played instead of him last week and had a good game maybe then he should be on the bench.

    Get over it!!!!!!!
    Some players do play more than one Sport, its their choice. If the Avenue heirachy decide to play or not to play the player thats their choice.
    If you however were involved in the team then you could have an input in the next game team selection.
    As said before this players commitment to both Avenue and Soccer in Clare (Oscar Traynor) is unquestionable.
    Avenue lost the game so your argument is not as strong as had they won the game, then the sentiment of it would have been valid.
    You have played enough games yourself over the years in Clare, where players had been missing from previous games and have been included in the following game, we all have, it may not be right in the bigger picture, but thats just the way it is.
    Put the topic to bed and get on with more important issues.
