i agree with everything except the respect for john o neill bit, the problem is most of them dont respect him, he is a good manager gives a lot of time to the club but no reward for it, very few turn up training every week sometimes a good lot but most weeks very poor and thats one of the factors of being a bottom half of the table team fighting relegation every year, some great players play for granville who could play for some of the bigger clubs, there must be a curse on the club or something because it never seems to work out

The ONeill family deserve better,not just john but hes brothers and parents who have devoted over 35 years too the club get rid of the old heads and bring in the young lads who care,ask the players to line the field,cut the grass and hang the nets.

Rubbish.
John's a top man, and has put in more work than many people at many other clubs could ever dream about. He is very well respected within and beyond his club. Get your head out of the clouds man.

On the same side for once

pike b i dont think you looked at my post properly i agree that john is a top man plenty of clubs would love to have a man like him about, but he gets no reward for it FROM THE PLAYERS, him and his family are great for the club, its some of the players that dont respect him you should know you played for granville, if some of the players put in as much effort as he does then we wouldnt be having this conversation,

They're just not good enough for Premier pal. It doesn't mean they don't respect him. I did play there for half a season and saw first hand how they run. It was good training, and the lads all gave it their best, but they do not have enough quality to do more than scrap to stay up in that division. But I never once saw anything to suggest that they had anything but respect for John. And rightly so. Not being good enough, and not caring are two very different things.

Does anyone know where they "publish" a list of players suspended under the 4 yellow card rule, where is the transparency in the whole process?

Has any other club had players suspeneded under this rule?

some of the players are good enough to play premier not all, some not good enough to play 1a even, but believe me in my experience and opinion some dont care if they stay up or not, its the same players every year never seems to be much change, with shane o hanlon coming in i thought he might change things around but that didnt happen either have you asked yourself that question, for example earlier in the season granville won either an fai or munster juniour and a big win too on a sunday, two days later for training 3 players turned up, that to me is not caring, their b team are playing 3a and have 15 to 20 training two nights a week big diffrence there

Totally agree,John is a top man and is without doubt respected not just within the Granville club but throughout junior soccer!

Did you feel the wrath of the LDMC in that you got suspended????
Can't imagine this rule to followed to be honest but i do know that Alan Carroll got suspended last year for yellow cards received(not sure how many though)

Like the crest by the way even though i think you will always have black and white in your heart!!
