I can understand your comment about Balla fielding a weak team which helped them stay up. But Granville were 5 points behind corbally with 2 games left last season. Granville then playd a weak Aishling team with most of their B players and beat them 5-0. They then beat a weakened Fairview who fielded alot of minors and missin there better players. I think Corbally would have been hard done by if they were relegated. Granville got 2 handy games and Corbally got one. The moral is what goes around comes around.

And to say their good players leave to Janesboro? If the janesboro lads had their way they would all be up their as they continuously pester players to sign. From watching janesboro I think Danny Hanly and Dee Ryan would be the only two at the moment who are impressive. Ado lacks any interest and rarely plays while Peter Ryan is not much good.

Corbally have a few lads good enough to get their place in the top few teams, Fergal O Connell, Darren Hanly, David Owens and Kevin Harnett to name a few.

Sorry for rambling on but I just hate to hear guys critising teams. I know dared can get excited at times. I think messi may have issues with the club.

id fully agree with you on the circumstances you mentioned in the way the league finished last year.it was a complete shambles.lets hope the same dont happen this year but to make sur that doesnt happen the ldmc would want to start giving carew more league games and fast.

David Owens should be back soon, he's been injured and not played at all, Darren Walsh is back training after an knee operation and Shane Cox is hopefully back from the states in a few weeks... those three will make a big difference for us.

yep...agree with that.
carew's win over balla could not have come at a better time for them.
think they will kick on from here and cause a lot of problems for teams with serious ambitions to win the league....
p.s. not used to posting on this site but hooked already!!!!!

Lads, whats happened to Balla lately. Some bad defeats!, is it a case of a bad run of form or what?

**Buzzer** · 11/11/2008, 4:01 PM

couple of suspensions,injuries etc.
after going out of the big 2 it'll be hard to motivate players from here on in

dont know at the moment but in saying that we should have beat them at home.we were two up and ref started acting the maggot and they beat us 3 2.personally i think they are a bit slow at the back and its killing them.still they will be there or ther abouts come end of season.

agree with the slow bit.
i know daly was missing on sunday for them,but christy doyle ran garrett ryan ragged in the 1st half.
could easily have had a hat-trick.
fairview played the wings an awful lot as well and the pace caught up with gary ryan in the second half...is he there regular left full???

Christy Doyle would give any centre back a tough time.very good player.How shane doran isn't balla's left full is beyond me.

IMO Gary Ryan is more of centre back than a left full.

to be honest Balla have been gettin away with bein slow at the back for a while now. Gary Ryan and Tom Daly will win headers for you all day but on the ground their easily beaten by a quick centre forward.

Just out of interest, what age is Gareth Ryan?
