Cork AUL Premier & Premier A 2014/15

[SecondBall]

But would that be feasible considering how many teams are in the aul? I just think it should be strictly lads who want to be involved and show an interest so having 5 from each club wouldn't neccassarily work. A club may have 5 good enough but only 1 who really wants to play and then he changes his mind because his buddies are saying how stupid it is. There are guys out there who would be proud to represent the aul and who are good enough. Having them get their club to put them forward would be a good start in my eyes.
As for your comment about senior football. There are plenty of guys who prefer aul to senior who could easily play that level. Just the same as there are a frightening amount of so called "senior" players around who would struggle in prem A. I know some amount of guys who are just delighted to walk around telling people they play senior as it automatically puts them on a pedestal in their own eyes. Give them a ball then and they don't know what to do with it.

Totally feasible, each club (A teams only) asks all their lads has anyone interest, if people show their hands, you throw them down...it's not like there'd be 300 players out at trials, the mngt team would get each clubs "nominees" some clubs may decide to leave it off entirely, they can then pick the 30 or so they want to bring in for a look. Wouldn't be hard at all to do, and each club wouldn't need to choose five at all, if nobody shows hands, nobody shows. At least then the powers that be in charge of the team will know "well, Player A from this team didn't put himself forward, why should I waste my time watching him". In my defense, i did say may work haha

Any results from tonight

Dexter Id say go back to your lab !!!! I have no interest in any form of management in the next few years !!! Plenty of good men out their for the job .

We made no comment on the Blarney Street managers job, and would expect the same courtesy.

relax bud opinion is opinion .i just edited your club name ther for you ,,my opinion of you gaffer is mine .

[sorryburnsy]

Ivan you should take it as a compliment that Derek is being linked with the job, it shows he must be doing something right with Blackstone Rovers, I also understand your point of view as well ye obviously dont want to lose him to the aul job or any other job at that. Any truth Mickey Walsh went for the blarney street job??????? Congratulations on your reappointment paulie best of luck for the forthcoming season. Best wishes to carrigtwohill in the aoh cup final their lucky to have one of the most genuine, honest men in football in charge of them mickey deasy.

[Kick-off]

Best man was appointed for blarney at job hands down best man manger around..you know your doing something right when players are approaching you to sign for your team lol

[overthehill]

You spot on there Kick off! The street will be back in the mix next season big time!

[overthehill]

Just to put this rumour to bed, I have had nor will have any communication regarding the aul job. Have work in progress in my present position and will be giving 100% to that for the coming season!

[sorryburnsy]

Fair play Derek for staying loyal to Blackstone,huge strides made on and off the pitch this season.long may the progression contuine,Ivan will sleep well tonight.

[sorryburnsy]

it is vacant as we speak

[overthehill]

There are some fine managers in our league but therein lies the problem, all are giving 100% to their clubs and would rather strive to achieve improvement and success over a long season than spend weeks watching games and trying to put a balanced team together after a couple of challenge games for the aul. For me, the candidate must be free from club commitments, be given a 2 or 3 yr term regardless of results in the first year, and any players chosen for the squad MUST give full respect to the HONOUR of representing their league or them or their clubs be punished. In my day players were proud to be called up for AUL Trials, now it seems a burden for some. Different times. I would hope that Mickey Walsh stays on but if he goes back to club management you cant do both jobs!

I think it'd be very wrong to punish a club in a situation like that. Or even the player who may work shift work or have a young family and already train twice with his club and have a match also. I agree and times have changed and for the worse I'm afraid. Be hard to find a good manager that hasn't a club id imagine but I agree with your point. Is it def that Mickey Walsh is gone and heading back to Coachford??

He's gone from his aul manager role

[get in the hole]

He's gone from his aul manager role

Heard awhile back that he was going back down to coachford next year but also heard he was falling in with rockmount. Personally I think there's absolutely no truth in either story
