what was the team lads?
The only one I dont blame is Boo..................shame on the rest of ye for listening to him!! I thought we sorted that last season!!
On the AUL game yesterday, I will clarify my remarks as opinion only, no slight on any player.
I actually thought,in the first half, that will all their possession that Clare scored with their only real chance in the 69th minute of the half!!!!
Cork had one or two "better than half" chances, and could have been 1 up.
Could the Cork Keeper have headed it when he handled outside the box, or was it too high? I suppose he had to go. The Glenthorn guy did ok when he came on.
The two full backs were excellent again, but I think the picking of centre backs in midfield and midfielders at centre back didnt work. I thought Betts was very good at centre back second half.
I felt sorry for the guy who began alongside Shinkwin at centre back - he just had one of those days where nothing went right for him. He moved to midfield, upfront and then came off.
I thought the wingers came in and out of the game, with young guy Barrett impressing me second half. The two outfield subs did well when they came on - who was the guy "18" who hit the crossbar?
Cork had 6 good chances, and should have won it.
Cest la vie. Always gonna be really hard in the first year for a representative manager. Hopefully, he will stay on and begin planning now.
what was the team lads?
Alberto on goal with Babbs an Bradfield full backs.Shinks an Dempsey(Leeside) were the center halfs/
Midfield had Betts an Brian Sull in the middle with Shane O'Neill on the left an Robbie Walsh(Knockavilla)on the right.Delea an Barrett up front.
Alberto is class but you have to put the hand ball down as a bad mistake on his behalf to make.If he was goin to come that far for it he should of headed it an blown the Clare fella an Shinks out of the way.But in fairness some of the chances we missed were insane.We seemed to want to walk the ball into the net.
Their's only one Dinny Pop's.

In fact i'd wonder if that team would even win the premier league in the aul
OK look I'm involved with the Waterloo team and these idiots who went down and disrupted the Springfield game that was totally unacceptable and believe me when we heard about that we were outraged with how stupid this minority are. However as a team I find it very offensive to say we are always hastle, we have won about 25 out of 30 games this season and played some very good football and worked incredibly hard all year, went on a great cup run and thoroughly enjoyed our performance in the league this year, the fact is Springfield were far better than us on Sunday and i wish them all the best, as i do to Millstreet in whoever goes up...it was a great fight all year from all three of us and gripping right to the end. These idiots are giving our club a bad name and as one of the majority who are embarrassed by them all we can do is apologise as a group of lads and wish you all the best.
Any who wants the fixtures Iv posted up on the fixtures thread.

think derek mc carthy was at a stag in portugal huge loss.
Iv given up trying to understand why players dont want to play.I suppose we just have to be happy we have some on it that appriciate the honor.Shetland your quite right in what you said,Scully would have caused their center half problems.I just thought we didnt have anyone who could stand on the ball in midfield an dictate the game.It was crying out for a ball player.

Some of the chances ye missed in the second half were insane but in fairness a neutral viewer would admit that Clare missed at least 5 handy chances and should have finished the game off earlier. Cork were a better team when they went down to 10 men.
Your quite correct Guv.Clare had a fair few as well but I though they came after the sending off and towards the end of the game.The sending off seemed to actually work in the Auls favour.Where as Clare went a bit wobbly.I just though if Cork took maybe their 1st chance the game would of swung in the home sides favour.Fair point though Guv

- Who was the guy "18" who hit the crossbar?
Sean Moynihan, still only 19 he plays for Douglas Hall. I heard he has underage Irish caps.
Lads Clare fully deserved their victory yesterday. Cork had a good spell for about 20 mins in the second half but they didnt do enough. Ya they had a few good chances but not as many as clare had and clares chances were better. Hopefully we can get another victory next sunday at home against wexford. COME ON THE BANNER
Haha - CMON THE BANNER - a crowd of the clare fans in front of us were singing that before the game. In fairness, they were pulling out brilliant one liners during the game! The official on the crowd side let one blatant foul go by against Cork right in front of us - they were telling him he was dead right and telling him he was brilliant in a sarcastic way for the next few minutes - brilliant!
Its why we love football - the Clare guys think they deserved it and us Cork guys think we did enough.
Riddler welcome to the forum and thanks for coming on to give us Waterloos side of things.
My beef with ye guys was that I was the guy who ye were taking photos of through a window while I got changed after we played ye in yere place which I found a bit inappropriate and last Thursday night with those guys it was a bit of a shocker.
Having said that when we played ye in yere place on a poor pitch I thought ye were the best team we played in the league this season. The game in yere place was a cracker and whoever lost was going to be disappointed. I wasn't playing Sunday Riddler but having spoke to the lads they didn't have anything bad to say about ye. The disaster about this division is that only one go up because honestly to finish on the points total ye may do would be good enough to win the league most years.
I can only talk about my experience with ye guys- but I am happy you came on to give your side of things. In return I would like to wish ye the best of luck next season I am sure if ye can hold on to the guys ye have ye will have a great season again next year.
Forget what YOU want and think about the CLUB before there is none.
theres one thing worse than a sore loser and thats a sore winner booboy even though ya havent won yet! littleman seems to have taken his team missing out on the league on the chin and has complemented your club a few times on this thrend.
would love to know if you play for the club booboy?? dont think ud be brave enough to name urself to be honest because id say you would get your cough softened fairly fast on the pitch!! so you could keep up the cheap shots because your making a lot of people dislike your club that im sure have a lot of people putting hard work into it!!
PS: your on this site at 3 in the morning? you need a female bud!! big time!
anyone know when ballyvolane and kanturk play??
Hard luck to innishvilla and congrats to Glenvale. Nothing better than celebrating winning a trophy lads so celebrate it like it's your last. Memories for years to come! We wont get to celebrate this year if leeside beat coachford and grattan this week. A draw in one of those games and at least we can have a chance down in leeside.
Was figo in the aul squad? Who came on when alberto was sent off and what other subs were made?! Sounds like a real opportunity missed with this game. Not a very strong team from a cork perspective and yet still could have won.
Figo was named in the squad but didnt play . Stephen Deasy of Glenthorn came on when Alberto was sent off . Ivan Skillington (Blackstone) and a fella from Kinsale i think that i didnt recognise came on for ken dennehy and rob walsh. The guy from Kinsale sawa a lot of the ball when he came on and did very well
This Premier league is far from over in my opinion lads. I understand that Leeside are on a major run at the moment but they have 3 of the biggest games of their lives coming up. Starting Thurs. night they have to come to us and we need the 3pts more than they do.
We certainly didn't think we'd be in this position last Aug. but thats the way it's after panning out. On the road we picked up only 2pts from a possible 27 scoring a whopping 4 goals. Relegation form no doubt , but at home weve won 4 out of 7. so we believe we can cause an upset Thurs. night. to make sure of our Premier status next year.
Hopefully we can get out a top team next Thursday and do the business.
This should be a cracker of a game so all support welcome on the night.
Our award for staying in the Prem. next year will be trips to Madden Park, Michelstown, Macroom, O neill pk. Leeside, CIT, The farm (Wilton) { just to mention a few }
Punishment for whoever gets relegated, Silverheights Clashduv Rd. twice , Monard, Fairfield ???
In fairness that has to be an incentive. I dont think i could go another season with that in mind .
So Boo looking forward to your trip to the Glebe , It's going to be some Battle.
