Were those players allowed play for Town today in Waterford or do suspensions not kick in until the league? Any result from the game nononsense?
Heard ref was Jim McKell. Also heard the sending offs were serious enough.Originally Posted by SgtBilko

One was a definate sending off and the other should not have been even tramore manager Alan Reynolds pleaded with the ref at halftime to let Town go back to 11 players as he felt the ref had got things wrong he was not impressed with Mckell one bit,Town beat Piltown 5-1 on sunday a very good performance.
Were the 2 lads who were sent off allowed play Chops? Who got the goals?
The suggestion that Celtic only sign Town 'cast offs' is both misleading and incorrect. You should ask your friend is he aware that quite a number of Celtic players were approached by Town during the summer (something they are entitled to do) thus dispensing with the notion that the best players in Clonmel sign for Town. That may have been the case a few years ago but not anymore. In fact I would say at least a half a dozen of the current Celtic squad would comfortably make Town's first 16 if not starting 11. If Celtic can remain injury and GAA () free they will go very close this season.
Now that your friend mentioned 'cast offs' you should also ask him where Town got Frank Holeko????

is this the winger come striker who played with celtic for abit last season. cant see him having much of an impact at town if it is. Saints drew tonight with regional from limerick 2-2. not sure who scored or if they have any new players in. have heard tony egan from bansha and declen peters from glen villa are signing but havent heard anything else
if it wasnt for birds and booze id have played for ireland juniors!!!!!
The match report on the st michaels website says that Pa Quinn and Michael Maguire scored. Tony Egan and Declan Peters played the first half. The rest of the team that played alot were B team players from last year. Tony Egan might be a good signing for them. Not sure about his temperament but he can be good on his day.
that foreign lad signed of his own accord and was not headhunted so you can count him out, over the years the only lads who signed from clonmel town to clonmel celtic which town would have liked to keep were maybe simon scully and evan maguire, the rest either could not get their place for some reason or another
If you contend that of the current Celtic squad only Maguire and Scully would interest Town you obviously don't share the views of Town's management. Ask the Town manager (or that Town buddy of your who raised the matter in the first place) would he like Graham Doyle, Paul Shanahan and Kevin Waters playing with Town next year and I'm sure I know what the answer would be.
I never suggested that foreign guy was headhunted. As you mention players move on when they can't get regular football which may explain his move to Town.
Peake Villa play Evergreen of Kilkenny Thursday night,3 or 4 new signings hopefully be involved
waters and doyle would walk onto any junior team in the country two outstanding players. roberto do you know when d celtic v pike friendly is on? a mouth watering friendly ( if there is such a thing )
ya i agree about egan. Can be good but for a big man gets very upset when a game gets anyway physical
I dont think Kevin Waters was with Celtic when he was asked to play for Town so thats one Celltic player that wasnt asked.
Pike 5 Celtic 0,
Not the same player since he had bad back injury 2 years ago. On form of last few years would not get into saints first 14 of last season!
roberto i was talking about Town players who have left the club to join Celtic, only Maguire and Scully are the ones they wished had not got away, graham doyle is a class player, no wonder town wanted to sign him for back, as for waters that goes without saying. that was some beating ye got off pike, was that played in limerick? still a bit way off that level so, was waters playing?
I think we had our wires crossed. The point I was trying to make was that a few years ago Town naturally attracted the best players in Clonmel but the soccer scene here has changed in that Celtic are now providing strong opposition to Town when it comes to recruiting players at all age groups.
Yeah, that game was played in Limerick and Kevin Waters did play. I wasn't at it but I know they were 4 down at half time. You could be right in that they are a bit 'off that level' but I still think they have assembed a decent squad. That result might actually prove a blessing in disguise.
It was on in limerick and waters was playing,it could have been more,pike missed peno and numorous other chances,if that's their squad they won't cause town or St micks too much bother,IMO

The pitches are in wonderful condition and refreshments will be provided aswell. Anyone intrested please private message me your details and I will pass them on to our manager who will contact you. We need to have a team by 7p.m this evening lads so don't hang around.
Cheers.
The Beautiful Game
That was a fair hiding for Celtic but I wouldn't read to much into pre season friendlies as teams are not at full strength and lots of subs used etc
On another note just heard rock rovers are looking to get back into 1st division did anyone hear this , I would have thought they would have to re enter in the bottom division
