Munster Senior League

[corkgaffer]

Wind your neck in a bit toto. You bang 6 past a poor grattan side and all of a sudden your jamie redknapp. Like hawkeye said young team with a lot to learn. Not just the team but the Club in general who are making huge strides in stepping up to the demands of senior football following loss of a number of very good players. Juniors doing very well in the MSL junior league also. Average age of team playing Passage was 23. When you look around and see how well established clubs like Ringmahon have brought young lads though the system and done well we are trying to emulate this. Everyone at the club enjoying the challange and whilst results havent followed the impressive start against Midleton its a long season ahead. Hoping all the AUL sides can continue to do well in MSL.

to be honest i dont think Tommy gave him much of a chance really ??

I think he featured in the Watford and Man Utd friendlies but not competetively.

Do City have a reserves side anymore? I am abroad so I am out of touch. From the League of Ireland's teams point of view it is vital to have a second string particularly to blood youngsters like Graham McCarthy and get injured first teamers back up to match fitness. The problem, in my time, was that the LOI resrves sides totally messed up the MSL. 1 week you could be playing (and losing) against an almost full strength LOI team, the next week they could be putting out a weakened team (or as happened a few occasions in my time) giving a walkover to your rivals for the MSL.

Do City have a reserves side anymore?

There's an U19 side that won the double in the National League last season and because a few of the better U19s were now overage there was talk that we might enter a reserve side in the MSL but it never materialised.
A few of these are starting to break into the first team though, most notably Stephen Kenny and Garry Buckley.

Is this a Leeside forum or MSL forum From playing against leeside for years on end (and by god did i hate going to play there cause we never got anything out of there) they are a great club and have a trophy cabinet that the majority of cork clubs would love to have their hands on. Anyway thats that, took in Midleton v Cork City last friday night, good game but it looked like City where just going through the motions, if they upped the gears it could of been a higher scoreline, midleton where on their knees at half time. Midleton have had a good start in fairness but i think they will struggle come the serious end of the season. After all the talk of Crosshaven, leeside i am going to take this game in on saturday so hope it is a good game of ball.

Fermoy 1-3 Avondale.

Munster senior cup 1st round. Dale led 5 before half time with a header from a corner. A goal each within a few mins of the restart. As much as Fermoy battled the Avondale lads matched up and scored one more 10 from the end. A string of Mick Devine saves made the scoreline respectable.

Never made it down, too far for a City boy like me early on a Sunday.
Made it out to Kilcully for the 2nd half, scrappy enough but Mary's a bit more clinical.
The young lad that got the winner is a nice player.

Lge Everton 0-1 Midleton
Not much in it, winner came from a spotter in the last few mins, the old chesnut of when is a player coming back from an offside position interferring with play. M'ton had a player a couple of yards off through the middle, winger ran onto a through ball and Everton half stopped expecting a flag, winger was taken down when about to shoot, was a pen and finished well. Everton earlier had a great chence to go one up but CF fluffed the chance with keeper to beat.
Margins are very thin in the premier lge but M'ton get the three points & Everton need to pick up some points soon.

A typical northside derby, loads of passion on show both on the pitch and on the line. Rockmount enjoyed most of the possession, a bit too much abuse from both managers towards the ref, sets a bad example for the kids on the line looking in. David Welsh showed why he has been one of the best players in the league for so long. In my opinion he was the difference between the two sides, and coughlan took his goal very well...Alan Martin wont be too happy about loosing to their fierce rivals. Enjoyed the game.
