Clare League 2009/10

[eric7]

Limerick Gardai are definitely joining a friend who works for a nightclub was approached yesterday for sponsorship for a kit as they are joining the clare league

[old git]

Ya I heard also that limk gardai will be playing there games in doora... Say bye bye to that pitch.. It is in great condition but imagine another 20 games a season on it... It's our pitch so clubs should say no at the agm... That's if it is even put to a vote..

As for teams wanting to join limerick league... Why??? Clare clubs should be playing in clare... Enough teams in limerick already

think the problem is some clare clubs see the limerick league as a better league ???
but agree with you clare clubs should be playing in clare.. but cannot really force them if the clare league are willing to accept a team from galway & limerick to join next season
on the issue of doora .. crazy situation if a new team from limerick get to use it as their home pitch so much for pitch being developed for football in clare and when you have a clare based team like cratloe having to play their home gates in l.i.t limerick

Lads I pretty sure that the pitch is avaialble to anyone - its down to cost - maybe some out there knows the rates

[avenueC]

Can't see a clare guards team being able to provide a team let alone a squad for the clare league. Limerick could be different. But they will have to start in division 2 I presume? And doora is available to any one to rent out for the season. Although obviously not to the highest bidder though. More political then that. It's more who you are and how can the committee benefit from the new tenants

[CousinSylDolan]

just a quick question if any one can help, just read a few posts there is there a team(s) applying to join the limerick league ?

I think people are referring to Newtowns attemps a few years back to switch leagues before they disbanded.

AC - It wasnt long ago when you were talking about the history being important to a club - we havnt much to gloat about so i'll leave it there for a while anyway - enjoy the break - GOD knows we need one from your good self

[Wolverine]

Treble winners.when was that done last.3/4's of the season away from home.bring on next season it should be a cracker.but I most admit, I for one, am shattered.enjoy the break.

[mastermind1]

Treble winners has a nice tone to it. 8 of the avenue team also have runners up medals in oscar traynor so all in all its been a great season. Enjoy the break cos i certainly will.

I think it's more about park trying to change their name to Shannon hibs

heard the rumours that clare league were the big reason why name could not be changed .. but cannot understand how espically since hibs/park in limerick league ??? i thought any team was entitled to change it's name ... kilmaley fern celtic / cratloe forest

[old git]

I believe if a club wants to change it's name they have to apply to their own county's league.. As hibs will be a new club.

Kilmaley and cratloe kept the main name of their clubs.. So if park went to park hibs I believe there would be no prob.. I might be wrong but that's what I heard

strange problem alright... but im sure it will be sorted out in time .. anyway back to clare football matters jesus whacker must have some pull on clare league to get a final switched at such short notice and he not even in the country hope phone calls are not being paid by clare league ... heard league refused to change dates of manus a & b promotion/relegation playoff game last week after request by manus ... must be 2 sets of rules with league

[avenueC]

u cant expect them to play without their manager surely!!!

u cant expect them to play without their manager surely!!!

why not . i'm sure somebody else could stand in for him . it's only a so called micky mouse cup anyway ... meanus a were missing a few players last week as match clashed with a wedding and they were made to play game which they lost to get relegated to 3rd division

[Lev Yashin]

I went out this match too...when i got there Rineanna where on the pitch as were the officals...Tulla didn't show up.

Couldn't understand that, I know its not a presitigious cup...but a cup final is a cup final regardless.

[Play_On]

the area cups are a waste of time and should be scrapped. 2 jokes of competitions.
munster and fai area cups should be scrapped and replaced by a premier league cup at the beginning of the season

Are area finals still played out in Clare? Must be the only league in the country still with these games. Are there trophies awarded? What is their purpose?
