Looks like Mullinahone have pulled out of Div 4. What will be the repurcussions for them?

**West Hammer** · 26/10/2011, 3:49 PM

Jesus that is Mullinahone's 3rd time in the last 5 years that they have failed to finish a season. I would say that if they come back looking to re-join next season they will be turned down. It is not fair on the other rural teams that are also struggling to field teams most Sundays. I think this will not be the last withdrawal of the season.

**balls** · 26/10/2011, 4:36 PM

mullinahone is a big enough place its a pity the interest aint there. there pitch is fairly decent too so its a waste. I agree with west hammer about rural teams hanging in there by a thread the village teams from div 1-4 have very scarce squads so it can easily go pear shaped if results start going against a team and lads loose interest. hopefully though there will be no more withdrawals from league though

Oscar Traynor result to-night Cork AUL 0, Munster Senior league 2. An excellent result for the TSDL. One group game remains, TSDL at home to Cork AUL. TSDL can afford to lose by two goals and still go through to the knock-out stages. That 4-1 win against the Munster Senior league was so crucial for goal difference.

they have a small bit of an underage system aswell so there will still be some form of football going on in mullinahone at least. would be a shame to have another rock rovers scenario, its shocking driving past there pitch on the way into carrick and seeing what was once one of the best set ups in the tsdl now a grazing field for ponies and horses

The fact that one man on his own was trying to run the club ultimately is what done for Rock Rovers.
Its a real pity, they gave an outlet for fella's to play football in Tipperary. The remaining players are now spread between Carrick and Piltown.
The grounds in it's current state is hard to look at.

rock rovers had some great youth and junior teams down the years.They had a brilliant youths team back in i think 2003 won the tipp youth league div 1 that year. Can remeber a young 15 year old michael coady back then just coming on the scene.They had a great junior team in 2007 when they won the division 1 league all good young footballers eg butlers, spudy, wayne cullen and had great experience in that team at the back and in center midfield. some bad eggs gave there junior team a bad name towards the end with ildisipline but i actually found them to be ok lads overall and eugene the lad who managed them was a gent. The lads are right passing the pitch is pretty disturbing when you think of some of the terrible pitches still being used in tsdl and one of the best now just abondoned. if memory serves me correct there was an astro turf and a bit of a stand (shed with roof) in the rock rovers ground. did another club pick up these or what happened them?

**cufc champions** · 28/10/2011, 11:36 AM

Everything there was sold the astro went to a GAA club up the country and all Metals were sold aswell.

**republican** · 28/10/2011, 11:52 AM

lads i think if they erected a statue of eugene at the site of where the pitch is now or somewhere in carrick it would not be an over exageration. LEGEND!!
