I am new to this site. I will be honest and say that I am from Cahir. The only reason I have logged in as I cannot believe the way you have dismissed a man of the caliber of Muiris Walsh “he won’t be chased to come back” well it must be a huge relief to you that a club can afford to lose a man like him. I met him in Cahir last Tuesday and he was in flying form. Really looking forward to the end of the season and then two days later he is gone!! How long is involved in the club? He is the most high profile PRO in football. I was told today that he wasn’t on the radio last night. Has he gone from that too?
He does a great job promoting the game. God, a few weeks ago people here were wanting him to present a new radio show and now you say him going is boring. Perhaps it is
I am sorry but I honestly don’t believe that he left because of the TSDL. I just don’t. I have gotten to know Muiris over the last 4 or 5 years and he isn’t a quitter. If that is true, then I stand corrected. But, the whole football family should try and get him back involved in football. The TSDL and Clonmel Town will survive without him but it would be far better if he were still involved. I notice that his contact details are gone off the webpage. I will get his number, ring him and ask him why. I might be on my own here but I think the whole football family has lost the service of a great football man.
I have to say I'm shocked that anyone involved in football, let alone the so called Clonmel Town "supporters" on this forum would see the loss of Muiris Walsh as not beng important and questioning his integrity. He will be hugely missed in Clonmel Town and in football in general in Tipperary. I'm sure that for whatever reason he has stepped down, it wasn't an easy decision for him and he wouldn't have made that decision lightly. And I for one wish him all the best in whatever he does in the future....................

well said maxwellsmart!
If and hopefully when Pike get the bullet the fixtures will show as
Sat 15th - Michaels in FAI Senior
Sun 23rd Town v Michaels
Sun 30th Town v Carrick
If it is Bluebell v St.Michaels it will be played on Saturday night. If it is Bluebell v Pike Rovers it will be played on Sunday. If Bluebell draw with whoever they play, the replay will be on Sunday week 23rd June. If not the F.A.I. Junior Cup semi-final will be played on 23rd (extra time and penalties if necessary). With Cork v Tipperary on Sunday June 30th it is unlikely the Munster Junior Cup final will be on that day. Possibility of Saturday night June 29th.
there is a chance they will be able to play under appeal, if it works out the way town want to aaron will play the fai semi and mjc final but miss the fai if they get thru
smurf should play all pls god!
any result from town vs saints was it played tonight
if it wasnt for birds and booze id have played for ireland juniors!!!!!
1-1, i heard it was a poor game
dont think either team was goona give much away b4 potential fai semi between the 2. town finish 4th so after 6 seasons at the top, do people think premier has got more competitive or have town just let there high standards drop this season???
if it wasnt for birds and booze id have played for ireland juniors!!!!!
certainly think league has become more competitive. town are in munster final and fai semi and yet can only finish 4th in league. in saying that town arent the team they were. interesting to see who will get the managers job next year as they certainly need to strenghten

its very hard to maintain a good run in fai, munster and league, you always need to sacrifice one competition, for the last 6 years of Towns dominance when the won the league they were strong in at least one of the cups and knocked out of the other early on. at the start of this year in the first 3-4 league games town struggled to field a team and gave away silly points to the bridge, borris and lost a 1-0 lead to celtic, they also lost coady, scully, mcgrath, costigan, i wud say 4 of the best players in the league last year, along with rory kiely and barry kiely so it was a tough start, effectively Town had lost the league in the first half of the season.. knowing they had lost the league probably made them concentrate more on cup competitions
in sayin that now celtic have improved with the help of ex town players, scully, kenrick and shanahan have added alot, peake were always knockin on the door and deserve their leage
unfortunately not for Town, one of the best players Town ever had, they'll be a long time lookin for a replacement, he has to have a bone graft on his leg next month
thats sad to hear. for me the main reason town have dominated the tsdl
The premier has defenitly got more competitive but as far as town are concerned you only have to look at what can only described as an horrendous start as to why they finished as low as 4th.With the players they lost and that start I dont think anyone could of honestly predicted last September that they would of recovered and got this far in the F.A.I and the M.J.C. Its a credit to the players and lets hope they go on and lift both cups.

You could also make a strong argument that Town's success over the years has been helped by their 'acquisition' of Celtic/St Oliver's players who have come up through the schoolboy and youth ranks of Celtic/St Olivers. Stephen Ryan and Tony Scully are 2 prime examples in your current junior squad. So it is nice to see players moving in the opposite direction for a change. I suppose it's a reflection of how far Celtic have progressed both on and off the field over the last 5/6 years.
