i agree with you hear ballboy.corbally in fairness to them battled for the 90mins and were in it right until the end where they were very unlucky to concede a 4th with only afew mins left.thought pikes penalty was very dubious.the ball defo hit the right fulls hand but it was hit so hard he had no time at all to even attempt to move it.im sure pike will be happy with the tough game they got tonight especially with the few weeks ahead that they have.in fairness to pike there second goal was class.a brilliant delivery by the winger and a super volleyed finish.Originally Posted by theballboy
how can it be pikes fault bud?pike are playing alot more games than anyone so its quite obvious that they need to chop and change fixtures.what is a total joke tho is the fact that alot of premier league teams are going weeks without games.
what did sherlock do for the sending off lads,, sounds as if it was a good game, and who was the ref,, pike 6 points clear now,, another league trophy for them

2 yellows,fouled a bit alright but no more than a few pike players who did the same,pitch very tight which made for plenty frees.corbally had a right go to be fair but pike always in control even on what was a poor pitch.
corbally 2-4 pike. corbally went 1 up after 5 mins throgh ken neylon after excellent work by ben savage and ian o donoghue.pike equalised after 10mins through a conor kavanagh penalty after a handball from a cross which was in no way intentional.corbally retook the lead on 20mins through a ken neylon overhead kick from 6 yards after a great flick on by ben savage.corbally were on top at this stage but pike equalised on 30mins thru an excellent finish from john tierney and took the lead 2 mins later when tierney buried a moloney pull back from 12 yards.we battled hard for the remaining 55mins and were very disapointed not to get a draw especially after twice leading the game.onto regional on sunday for what is a huge game for us at home.best of luck to pike in there remaining fixtures and there f.a.i final in afew weeks
lads alot of comments about the state of corballys field tonight.it wasnt that bad now in fairness.our top field isnt in great nick but thats to be expected with the amount of schoolboy games on it every week.both the wings were in good nick tonight and the rest of the field wasnt bad.prob the best ive seen it in a while .it was narrow but no worse than bateman park or aislings bottom pitch.the pitch was grand
sherlock deserved to go on a yellow and kept conceding free kicks.kavanagh and tierney 2 best players for pike. pike must be worried about the amount of goals there conceding and the form of there keeper who was poor tonight.must say the big lad upfront for corbaly had a fine game and gave enright a hard time.the pitch was way too narrow
Tedd11 alot of your comments have been very accurate and honest but corballys pitch makes bateman park look like old trafford.
lads its very tight at bottom who do yee think will survive.
Star I think,reckon mungret will go down.it's between the 2 I'd say,
pikes last 4 league games are away from home ,but do you hear anyone from pike whinging about it ,no ,and the reason being is that when it comes to the winter pike will always be at home because their field will always be playable,pike went a month without a league game not long ago but they didnt complain about it
both teams had to play on it ballboy.it was alot better than afew of the pitches we have played on of late.i do admit it was narrow but compared to the other pitch was in alot better condition.with about 40 schoolboy teams playing there we cant expect to have a surface like boro,pike etc.maybe the club will have to look at going the aisling route.the only longterm solution to a problem which wont go away over the coming seasons
correct me if i'm wrong but are you not complaining now ..!!
" football is a simple game "
no im making a valid point,
Someone made a point that the view had to play a game the week of the fai,pike played 2 games the week before it,and they didn't put a b team either,as a matter of fact they didn't play any b players,they are also playing tomorrow,so that comment doesn't make much sense
Extra Extra Read All About It - "Pike Can't Buy League Anymore"
As of next season a new rule is coming in that restricts teams to having no more than 4 ex - LOI players on the field at any one time.

"The theory of football is not just a study of how to win.Equally as important is how not to lose."
That rule is around ages and Pike are still winning so you comment doesn't make any sense!
where have you been ,that rule is in long time,once the player is out of loi a year he,s automatically a junior player,
Lads, I know a lot has been said about refereeing performances of late but , just like the Premier League table, I've devised a list of the top 20 ref's over the last couple of years, based on their game - by game performances.Again, this is just my opinion.
