1. facilities- equal except i think fairview have better dressingrooms by far.
2. pitches- both have 2 quality pitches.
3. past glories- fairview would pip it for me with the fai successes.
4.recent times- pike have won alot more in the last 4-5 years albeit mostly locally with 2 good munster junior successes.
5. current squads- if the current rumours of players leaving pike are to be true and fairview have signed who they are meant to have then i think fairview will have a better squad

id consider pike to be the better team at the minute although that could change back to fairview this season.id consider fairview to be the bigger club albeit again not by much.i think they have a fabulous set up down there and imo it slightly betters pike. in saying that though what both clubs have built facilities wise is a credit to all involved.

So this year they've the same squad as last with what about 5 more so either they all got different jobs or ye'll have 8 down training plus christy coll (hot head) david collopy(never kicked a ball in his life) as management, prediction= struggle big time

as the o-o draw indicated against kennedy park the other night i reckon they will have alot of problems in front of goal.they need a 20 goal a season striker badly but ultimately i think if they are as unfit as they were last season they wont need to worry about scoring goals as they will be getting beaten 3 and 4 nil.the cant blame pa mul anymore for last season.they stayed up after all and its up to the current management to get what they have fit and ready for next season.the 2 lads managing are 2 good lads who know about football (regarding the collopy comment jose mourinho never played ball either and look where he ended up) i dont think you have to be a great player to be a good manager.give the 2 of them a chance ,they must be still finding there feet as they are only there efew weeks.i think the attitude of the players over the season is what will keep them up or relegate them.in saying that though they need to cut the dead wood and get what is there fit and hungry again

is this true or another hog wash story

**dared** · 05/08/2008, 7:44 AM

Dave Collopy played for 3 premier sides he's first when he was 16yrs old , minor with one of the best minor sides to come outa Limerick for quite some time (Gerldines). Then a couple of years with corbally before injuries forced him to pack it in... So i think its safe to say he's kicked a ball..... but i have to admit tat Mournino comment was priceless.... sorry bud but it was...

if he did sign and with all the other players signed i'd be v surprised if they didnt challenge for the major trophies this season!

as for alan barry signin for st michaels then he should do v well out there, quality player and sound bloke so best of luck to him

**Roadend** · 05/08/2008, 8:47 AM

Collopy even had a foray into the management game before winning a cup in that season

and the 35 pounds plus he added onto his waist

**dared** · 05/08/2008, 8:54 AM

Now Graham you know thats not true....Dave is still a wonderful athlete...rumour has it he might even make a few guess appearances this season....

**dared** · 05/08/2008, 8:56 AM

Thats true actually... so he's kicked a ball and been sucessful in management already so i think its safe to say he might actually have some idea what he's doing
