Under 20s league

**pineapple stu** · 04/06/2009, 9:44 PM

We have Athlone Town, Bray Wanderers, Kildare County, Longford Town, Shamrock Rovers and St Patrick's Athletic.

We should do well in this this year with no A League team.

**DRDoc** · 07/06/2009, 12:36 AM

why no A team lads?

**howsyourtouch** · 07/06/2009, 1:14 AM

i would hazzard a guess and say its because their not in the premier and therefor are not required to have an A team...its not exactly financialy viable...

Apparently it was a lack of players; we have 28 in the squad, but the U-20s team will be composed out of that too. Though saving money didn't exactly hurt.

Fixtures are here

First game is this Sunday at 12, I think - home to Longford. John Dineen's the only suspension, but as he's left the club, that's kind of moot.

Where's he gone? Playing hurling if this is him.http://www.southernstar.ie/article.php?id=1304
Shame, should have been starting for us with Bolger been injured.

Would only stop him getting the scholarship- shouldn't stop him staying, that's if he wanted too. Suppose with no scholarship there's no attraction to stay however. Could end up back at Cork.

To stay, he'd have to go amateur. Maybe some players would do it, but I doubt most would.

I think the club are going back to basics, which means the academic side of things is just as important as the football side of things.

**pineapple stu** · 06/07/2009, 8:37 AM

We beat Longford 2-1 at the weekend. Conor Melvin and Keith Ward.

Where do the 20s play as I might visit next week if it's The Bowl and knock another ground of my list

**DmanDmythDledge** · 20/07/2009, 10:37 PM

2-0 tonight away to Bray.

**Maicon** · 20/07/2009, 10:52 PM

Good result, I don't know how strong Bray's u20s are this year but they were a fine side last season. Outclassed us out there the last time we played them.

Usually the Bowl I think, although I've not been to a home game.

Sure you're coming to the Bowl in a couple of weeks anyway?

Edit - line-up and brief report from last night. Strong team out.
