Whats the story re the Pike / Michaels affair ??

Objection being heard Tuesday week 13th April I heard.

[Daydreamer]

lasd, watched the game today and although i felt bad for regional as it was tough that they had JJ sent off but i think that he probably deserved to go even though the ref did himself no favours by delaying the decision.To say Regional were all over View in til the sending off is a bit harsh in my opinion, Regional did not really create anything even the goal was a freak og. Fairview has the better chances with Grant stopping a Barrett effort going in . Regional looked Hungrier at the start but the View were slowly coming into the game and creating chances. Its impossible to say that Regional would have definately won if it stayed 11v 11, i personally think that Fairview would of won maybe 2-1 or so just like the league games, thought Christy Doyle and Darren O sullivan were very good for fairview and best for Regional were the left winger Fergal? and the very tall midfielder , sorry dont know his name was good along with danny galvin

both teams were poor but having said that watched Limerick Fc against Pike to-day and Pike were poor enough too, I said it to 1 of the ldmc officials that they were robbing people with the price of €10 and he said he thought it was great value for money, I bet he didnt have to pay it, P*ick, went to the Limerick V Pike game it was only €5

if its €10 euro for the final they can keep it

How did the Pike v Limerick game finish?

[faces]

was it not 5 1?

anyone have the teams that lined out.

[rins]

Limerick teams, Limerick refs

[Hairy Legs]

anyone have the teams that lined out.

Not me sorry, playing myself, couldnt be at the game, did Pike go down to Limerick by the way?

[Monkfish]

Pike 1-2 Limerick. Game of 2 halfs, Limerick 2 up at ht, Pike unlucky not to get a draw by the end.

Fairview winning 5-1 and not playing well sounds like a good omen for them, how many at the game? E10 in sounds a but much and would easily put off at lot of lads.

typicalsenior soccer always lookin for more

They pay enough every week dont they? also provide a groundsman to keep the place some bit playable.

The sending off situation was quite comical. The keeper clearly took out the Fairview attacker and the ref blew it straight away. Then, for reasons unknown, seemed content to play on without carding the keeper. While the wall was being prepared, the linesman took it upon himself to tell the referee that it was a sending off offence, and he duly produced the red card. Strange.

It was a poor game, I think Pike will waltz this competition now if the objections business goes in their favour.

€10 to watch a junior game was absolutely ridiculous.

what was even more comical was the sideline. when the ref was happy for regional to sort there wall before he sent jj off, jason was going ape on the line. the forth official was trying to clam him down while regional sideline was smug.

then tom duggan calls the ref and jj gets the red card and the regional line now gos ape and the forth offical is now trying to clam them down, while jason is now smug.

the forth offical must have been rightly p***ed of

priceless - for everything else theres mastercard (except the 10e in)

How many attended this game lads?

[joeSoap]

I would say around 300. Most likely that another 300 turned around and walked away when they saw the admission fee.

[Monkfish]

this is a junior thread go back into limerick fc thread to mouth about what your saying and p.s junior clubs own jackman not lfc there wouldn't be a senior club only for junior clubs helping out limerick

Sher you've no bother sticking your nose in at the senior section Rory, iv an interest in the junior game around town and attend quite a few games any chance I get and if iv something to say about it ill say it here, problem?

Now whats the reaction to the Star newspapers dedicated junior pullout today describing Fairview as ''the Dublin side'' when reporting the View/Regional game? anyone else see it?

dont agree, at this stage of the competition there should have been out of town refs, thought the ref had a poor game, out of his depth, couldn't disagree with the sending off but ruined the game as a contest.

agree their should be out of town officials,but the official concerned was hardly out of his depth,was obviously indecisive regarding the sending off,however given he was a long way off incident through no fault of his own,it was understandable,the fact the linesman helped him showed good teamwork on their behalf.

[joeSoap]

Lads, keep it on topic or I've no doubt the thread will be closed.

I think mr kiely struggled a bit to be honest. He gave the free, was not even going to book the keeper (should not have needed assistance for that), let fairview position the ball and a few seconds later the linesman got involved. The mr kiely went in a gave the red. He then proceeded to get the free taken untill regional went balistic to make a sub to get a keeper in goals. People around me were laughing at the ref.
Was not sure about the sending off as i believed the view player knocked the ball away and jj did not move (is he supposed to get out of the way of the player???), think they ball was knoecked out of play also and therefore he did not stop a goal scoring chance...

but that is history.....

[TopperHarley]

Gave them 5 euro at the door and they were happy to take it,otherwise i i woulda watched it up by the buses

A replay here is the only sensible conclusion. Pike have played an illegal player-plain and simple. The reason they played him is that their local governing body, the LDMC, mis-informed them as to the status of this player or players. Therefore Pike were unaware of the situation as a result of this mis-information and it should be pointed out here that the LDMC are representatives of the FAI in the area. Pike had no reason to question the judgement of the LDMC (who have admitted responsibility)and picked their players according to what they were informed the rules were. Saint Michaels objection is valid, but not water tight legally and if this matter is not resolved the way the FAI ruled (ie a replay) then it will get ugly and go to arbitration. If this happens, there's not a court in the land that will rule against Pike. If I were Michaels manager I would grab the replay chance with both arms while it is still on the table.

How could you say this? Have you some kinda of doctorate in admin law? It is nowhere the foregone conclusion you make it out to be if this case does drag on into arbitration. That's tantamount to saying Pike are pleading ignorance (thinking they had a properly registered player and took their league's word for it) and this ignorance not being a defence in the eyes of the law.
