Cork AUL 2009/10

[donaldihno]

So then has he transferred to Seniors, then he cant play in AUL anymore or Oscar squad?

We are looking forward to Saturday too - should be a good one. Clashduv two weeks running, I noticed it more the second time from both sides that control is sometimes impossible around the centre of the park.

I think if your regiester with the juniors,3 are aloud play with seniors,not 100% now horse,anybody no the ruling on that lads!!

There should b no1 allowed play on that pitch in clashduv,you cud go over on your ankle anytime!!

I thought that was only between MSL Senior and MSL junior?? Not the AUL ??????

[littleman]

Oli,your 100% correct.That agreement is only between Msl Sen and Junr teams and refers only to the subs named for the senior teams,their then able to play for the juniors.If you do it between the Aul junior and Msl Sen is not allowed under the Aul/Msl or Mfa rules.We have the 5 game rule.So make what you want of what I have just said.

So if it is the same guy he would still be eligible for the Cork Aul would he?? Surely it is the MSL rules he is breaking?? He has played more for the Junior AUL Castleview side than their MSL Senior side i'm guessing!

However the AUL rule is"
32 Registered in Different Leagues No player can be registered in different leagues in the same grade at the one timeNo player can play in different leagues in the same grade without being properly transferred."

So maybe the player can register for the senior side as well as its technically a different grade! [/SIZE]

Ya Ghost,Dillons X asked a few weeks ago if anyone wanted to have a go at naming an 11 of what was though to be on the squad.I stress what was thought to be on the squad ,before Boo wakes from his slumber an freaks.

Who or why players are choosen is not worth the hassel of hazarding a guess.Best of luck to um.

I'll stay well clear of pickin the side cause it draws to much grief but I did notice a few things last year . Mario Id say nearly every team in the entire Aul would have at the very least a player in their own squad that they would say is good enough to be in the Aul squad.Its always like that and always will be.What I learned from last year was that the trick is getting players A who are playing well with their clubs B can adapt quickly to the step up in the standard of the opposition they are about to face and C be able to go from ''go on out there now an do what ya do best'' to listening to a manager tell you what he expects defending,attacking and off the ball from ya .

As Iv said I have seen what I considered good players look like startled rabbits when told what they were expexted to do during a game.Not all so called great players can handle going from being a great player on their own team to one of 18 or 20 great players on an Aul squad.Even last year I saw a few players especially in the warm up games an even 1 or 2 in the actual games themselves that the blood seemed to drain from their face as soon as the ball came their way when playing on a team where every other player with them or against them was of a high standard.

So in saying that their are better players out their,Ill take that no prob.But having the right stuff to adapt so quickly to a change in standards is the hardest thing for me.Ya have to have lads that you know have the right attitude and respect for the position they are in and want to win at all costs.Last year I felt the majority of the squad first and foremost belived in each other an that they could win,even when they were loosing at times.You would have to ask if the squad this year have these qualities.


Horse.I know they have Pa O'Sullivan an the boy on the Aul Sullivan.Im not qiute sure how the rules about playing for your 1st an 2nd side work in regards to Msl an Aul.Ya would have to ask the Aul Sec Id say.

Littleman why complicate everything like your either good enough or your not like simple as that

[littleman]

Mario,if it was as easy as saying a lad is good enough then we would have won it a lot more times than once in the last 43 years.Thats the problem ya see previous managers just choose players they though were good enough without actually looking at wether or not there particular styles of play would complement each other and the team.I have been apart of Oscar sides and the managers just picked players on their names an all the egos couldnt gel cause they all thought they were the vital cog in the machine,Their wasnt any big heads last year,all solid grounded lads,im not sayin thats not the case this year but like as i said at the start Mario if it was as easy as puttin quality players on a pitch together then why havnt we won more titles.

The game an the players have changed so much in the last 10 to 15 yrs,managers now look at how the other team is set up way more,an whos playin where an so on.Before it was just name the team lump the ball in the box an hope it payed off.The game is gettin more technical ,we are just years behind the better counties Such as Dublin ect ect in terms of preperation.

how the ballyvolane lads see the game goin sunday? shud be a cracker, hopefully we'll turn up this time unlike the 1st league game. We are missin a few alrite wit one notable absentee which will b a huge blow but we had 18 training thur nite so have a big squad to cope. Ye are missing a few as well tho- Shaz is a huge loss to yer push this season. I picked Leeds for the ballyvolane last man standing haha -Conny doesnt txt back ona derby weekend, haha

Just out of interest- how is keith kelleher gettin on wit ye Littleman?? is he gettin a game? havent seen his name mentioned on this or the echo

[the owl]

yea leeds pk, like yourselves we are missing a few too. Shaz is a big blow and Dave Keo is out with a similar injury. Plus 2 others through work and weekends away so it should be fairly balanced. It will be tough one epecially in yer place with both looking for 3 points.

[thebooboys]

Just looking at the league table and its in GRTTANS favour if they win today. Blarney will have to be at there best to get anything from the game. I think its going to be a low scoring affaif as usual when GRATTAN playing. I think 2-0 the GRATTS there a machine at the moment. They have been there and done the the businss. Suprise me Blarney hopefully.

Blarney St 1 - 3 Grattan Utd

[littleman]

sorry Boo, we won 3/1

[Legohead]

Village 1 Coachford 0

[donaldihno]

Kanturk 1 Blackstone 0

Massive win today,3 points is all we wanted and got them!!Chances at both ends,dont no how it finished 1-0!!Tought both keepers were very good!!
Abit of fracas at the end,no need for it in the game!!Dont want to comment anymore on it,we got the 3 points,thats all that matters!!
Horse/oili what ye make of it?why wasnt jason playing,i tought abit of a loss for ye!

[thebooboys]

watched the game from the comfort of the car. Grattan must be favourites to win the league now. On the game; scrappy affair,pitch didnt help,few opportunities,grattan converted set-piece chances. Some effort from yer player from free kick just in blarneys streets half after 65 mins, some strike. D way grattan are motoring you shud be next AUL manager "fear bheag"........

Didnt make the game today Don. From what I hear, you sum it up well. Our bus home was a sad one. Fracas was avoidable too I believe - Im wasting my breath and am torn between giving up on it or keep fighting for the good of the game - the question is how did I know last Sunday evening there would be a fracas in the game??

Jason had four yellows - unfortunate but cest la vie.

[scaffa7]

Anyone know how the Mayfield v Douglas game end it was the 1/4 finals of the city cup i think

[littleman]

Boo if I had known you were there I would have put rose petals on the floor an carried you on high over too the side line.T'was a derby an as derbys go it was a decent game.I will refrain for a few days from posting a match report.But lets keep it simple,a win is what we wanted,by hook or by crook,an a win we got.

Boo,lastly if your wondering what magical managerial system I have to get the results we have got,,,,,,,,,,,nothing at all to do with either Gratt manager,great players will always be great players,just sometimes they need reminding their great players!!!!!

[beezerblackpool]

Douglas won 1-0 scaffa.

[thebooboys]

all jokes aside "fear bheag", fair result etc etc but dunno how barry peelo gave man of the match to who he did on the cork aul website. Without a shadow of a doubt yer centre half man of the match.

[littleman]

Fair point Boo.Looking at the game I thought all our 3 center halfs played very well.I thought Figo an Steven Goulding gave the Blarney St defence an awful time of it. We may of sat back a bit too much for my liking in the 2nd half after we got our 2nd goal but we did what we are very very good at an defended excellently.And of course on the break as the 3rd goal showed i dont think theres any team better.3 points is all that mattered. Figo had a hand in the 3 goals and in general he had a smashin game,but in sayin that so did the rest of um.
