Tipp South & District League 2010/11

**rushy12** · 19/10/2010, 4:41 PM

In the last 2 years can someone tell me when they saw a good league game?now im not insinuating anything just curious of who goes to the games, oh ya and if we are talking about Irish call ups I am very surprised that the town keeper Richie Ryan has not wore the green in the last few years.He is a fantastic keeper, how come no one is pushing him?just curious once again...again Barry(balls; who has all his facts) forgive me I'm sorry..dont take these opinions to heart as i know nothing about football

**Preds** · 19/10/2010, 7:57 PM

To be fair to Barry Ryan he has a goal scoring record that anybody in any league would do well to match. As regard the stupid things he does it doesn’t bother me at all, every good player at any level of sport is always a bit mad and maybe this is why they are at the top of their sporting profession and why others will always be missing that little bit. These people deserve a pat on the back when they are doing well and should get the recognition that comes with that. He deserves a shot at an Irish cap and I for one know he would have got that chance long ago had he being a Saints player.

I must say i am only writing this as a small bit of sour grapes towards the cashel lads tha had the cheek to come on here and run down my club (nenagh celtic) after we drew with peake villa last year. they couldnt then beat a north tipp team themselves at the weekend

maybe they should put more effort into their own club and they might do a bit better.

The thing about my acca predictions Rushy, if you look back, is that none of them came up, which shows how hard it actually is to predict the games. That's a sign of a good league is it not ?

Fellas, I have to say that as a neutral who takes in a game most weekends, the standard of the TSDL this year is shocking. It has become boring and even the "big" games are bereft of life/passion. I really can't see any of the TSDL teams challenging nationally this year unless something drastically changes. Just my opinion before anyone jumps!!

Anyway, I still think he is deluding himself if he thinks Town will win FAI.

Walsh never be allowed back nor wanted after they way he left the club

I do think Town are stronger than last year. Jamie O'Flaherty is a good manager and has proven that with the youths. He has added some excellent players as well as some of the youth players. I think if the draws are kind, they could go a long way.

You obviously don't know the circumstances that lead to Muiris Walsh leaving Town. It was shameful the way he was left out to dry and how an 'honourable club' like Town treated such a decent bloke.

Yes I concur with that, it was simply a disgrace what happened. I couldn't believe it when I heard it. I will never support that club in anyway. the people responsible should be ashamed of themselves. They are still in position's of authority and a honest and decent man like Muiris Walsh is lost to both Town and to football. Disgraceful and shame on Clonmel Town

I heard during the summer what happened and I too was shocked. Couldn't believe that a club like Town could do this. I since heard he was back in the club but given what happened to him, I fully understand why he isn't back nor likely to ever go back. Clonmel Town are stained over this and they will lose a lot of support over it

have to agree with you that, the TSDL premier league is very boring this year, (have been to nearly all of the Saints games) but having said that, there has been large crowds going to the games under lights, so that is good for games, i think this league never changes that much, from year to year, the top teams so to speak don't seem to rise their game for the premier league, they seem to save their best play for the Cups, ie, FAI and Munster, so you couldnt write them off because of the boring league form.

**Quietman** · 20/10/2010, 2:27 PM

Fair point Saintsfan, maybe the TSDL teams will raise their game for the national cups.....but they'll have to raise it well above their league form.........

As for the posts re: Muiris Walsh, does anyone feel like filling the rest of us in on what happened!!

**rushy12** · 20/10/2010, 6:45 PM

You have a good point, this weekends game looks a banker draw x on the coupon but you dont know what way it will go, but the league can be predictable at times and the games not that exciting or interesting, even when some teams charge €5 to see..not all that is.I wont shame the team!the reason I joined this and stiring you up as you look like someone who knows stats and stuff about the league and football.this thread was getting boring and folk were not voicing their opinions and truthful ones, like those town lads talking about what went on in their club.alot of stuff going on in different clubs and no one talking about it or mentioning names.if we all keep debating and agreeing and disagreeing people will talk because im lead to believe people are interested in this thread but dont comment.so il throw this out and see does it get any bites.Would the league be more interesting and competitive if their was an incentive to win it?(like dublin league) money or a trip, something...and if they did, would the local lads stay with their home club to try and win this with them?only an idea..what do folk think?

**complexman** · 21/10/2010, 8:54 AM

I don't want to get into trouble on this forum but what I will say, Town said he resigned on health grounds which was not true. It was a very serious situation and Muiris being the decent and honest man that he is, left. If you want the truth ask the people involved at the top what went on. If the truth comes out, Town should be docked points or thrown out of the FAI. They are a disgrace
I must add, I don't know Muiris on a personal level.

Fair play to you Complexman, you are a man of principle. It's too easy to slag off other clubs when they 'misbehave' like this but you have the courage to have a go at your own club. If anyone wants to know how Muiris Walsh was mistreated they should ring the club.

You are 100% correct, its not a Muiris Walsh thread but my final word is, Pike Rovers were kicked out of the FAI last season for far less than what Town tried to pull. Thats why it is relevant. It was that serious. one of the biggest and most respected club in the country acted in a dishonest way and Muiris was used and abused by the club, a club he loved and did a huge amount for. I am only bringing it up because of the spin the club put on it and some people inside and outside of Town have tried to paint Muiris as the bad guy

I will say no more about it but the TSDL should investigate.

Town have been handed a tough draw in FAI

**balls** · 21/10/2010, 12:06 PM

michaels and clonmel celtic will be happy with there draw, town have it tough but will be slight favourates to beat nenagh celtic, only other stand out team for me in the hat would be nenagh. rosegreen could be darkhorses to get to open draw
