think regional in extra time 3-2
There's no such thing as luck. Victories for the underdog are an aberration on the order of the universe - which is why I've had damn few loses in my time
the LDMC should have ensured the surface at Jackman Park was in immaculate condition for the biggest game of the season so far.Limerick playing there less than 48 hours before was ridiculous.Surely the FAI junior cup semi-final should have preference.....considering the grounds are the headquarters of the local governing body!!Originally Posted by redcardrory
I'd imagine the condition of the pitch will affect the quality of the football tomorrow considering these are two of the best footballing sides in the country.I was hoping to get my moneys worth up there tomorrow
two of the best footballing sides in the country are you for real!I'd imagine the condition of the pitch will affect the quality of the football tomorrow considering these are two of the best footballing sides in the country.I was hoping to get my moneys worth up there tomorrow
I apologise for the expletevises, but does anyone on this thread see how picky they look to normal footie fans?
well they are two of the four semi-finalists Blackjack!........and besides they do play a good brand of football...good luck to both teams tomorrow
Senior soccer lookin for more? They pay enough rent on the ground to be the priority.
When did i diss Junior clubs?
How much do Limerick pay?
View 2-1 up at half time. Regional down to 10, keeper sent off. View v poor.
view won 4 1 view very poor as bad as i seen them pike view final still on but on this performance pike would batter them
was it not 5 1?
he probably left a bit early view were not at best but still a good win ldmc charging 10 euro to get in robbing muppets tryin to make up for lack of people at it hope they dont get final
Ya it finished up 5-1, Ross Cosgrave got the last one. Fairview were desperate today and I don't think they will even deny that. It was an awful pity the keeper was sent off for Regional, think they would have beat um if it was 11 v 11. Fairview never came out of the traps, lacked conviction in any of their passing and it looked like they were down to 10 for alot of the game. V unlucky Regional and had a couple of chances to make it 2-2 except for last ditch defending from Fairview. Fairview MUST improve for final which I have no doubt they will.
Can anyone tell me why there wereLimerick refs appointed for the game? I thought at this stage of the competition out of town refs would have been in charge...
The sending off situation was quite comical. The keeper clearly took out the Fairview attacker and the ref blew it straight away. Then, for reasons unknown, seemed content to play on without carding the keeper. While the wall was being prepared, the linesman took it upon himself to tell the referee that it was a sending off offence, and he duly produced the red card. Strange.
It was a poor game, I think Pike will waltz this competition now if the objections business goes in their favour.
€10 to watch a junior game was absolutely ridiculous.
Brutal at 5 1, I think they would have taken that scoreline this morning, I would love to see them when they are on form. Did one of the players go in goal or what?
Sub keeper came on and Regional striker came off. Thought fairview were comfortable throughout the game a few long balls over the top early on. Other than that i didn't see regional put 2 passes together they looked a little out of their depth and had no one on the pitch to get stuck in when the game was getting away from them. all the same its not bad for a side who were playing in division 2A about 7 years ago to have pushed on to this level.
I dont think thats entirely acurate! Regional were all over the view untill the red card which led to there first goal. They imposed themselves on the game from the kick off and were dictating the play....then came the red card. I think if Regional did have 11 they would have won it. Evan at right full for view was being given the run around by Fergal on the wing for Regional when they could afford to let him press on. They were targeting evan and he couldnt cope. The View didnt look comfortable on the ball up until they had the extra man so i dont think Regional were out of there depth.
both teams were poor but having said that watched Limerick Fc against Pike to-day and Pike were poor enough too, I said it to 1 of the ldmc officials that they were robbing people with the price of €10 and he said he thought it was great value for money, I bet he didnt have to pay it, , went to the Limerick V Pike game it was only €5
if its €10 euro for the final they can keep it

happy to view go through for one simple reason.................... any team to get beaten in a previous round of the competition doesnt deserve to be in the final for the best junior team in the country
really poor match,regional slightly better team before sending off,from my view on the standside it was the correct decision.not many players stood out maybe buckley for view and butler for reg.2nd goal a disaster for regional.were already getting roasted by doyle down that side so what the rightfull was doing when harmon burst through i,ll never know....also surprised galvin subbed when reg chasing a leveller.the pitch is a disgrace and the timing of the match meant many couldn,t go.
