Heard over the weekend that NCW played a "Suspended" player last week, if true this would be their 2nd time doing this and I feel that the punishment should be more severe than just a 3 point deduction.This has to be clamped down on! I don't believe that a club like NCW would make a mistake like this twice in 1 season and it has really cost them a chance of winning the league as they won both games in question I believe.It has also cost Shannonside & NCW Rovers 3 points which is very unfair on those sides.

Why would NCW playing a suspended player cost those 2 sides 3 points?

It gives them an unfair advantage obviously by playing players that shouldn't be playing. If clubs are not going to stick by the rules why do we have them?

Surely Rovers ans Shannonside will be granted those points now?

**tricky** · 09/04/2012, 12:03 PM

They won't get the points unless they objected within 3 days of the game, heard rvrs did but shannonside didn't know so they didn't.

Would it not be obvious that these were the 2 teams that NCW have beaten while playing a suspended player! Totally unfair on both sides IMO.

My point being that you are assuming that Shannonside and Rovers would have won those 2 games if the suspended NCW player had not played.
Those results could easily have been the same regardless of whether he played or not but we will never know. Of course it is unfair on those 2 sides and the rest of the league.

**Limk Soccer** · 10/04/2012, 12:18 PM

Glin Rovers secured three vital points against Newcastle West on sunday...another result should see them save and also i can see Newcastle Rovers coming out of that drop zone...if Newcastle Rovers and Kildimo win the weekend then it will be a nervous last 3 games for the Rathkeale club...What would Buddy Geary's view on all the happenin's with his club at the moment?

I'm not disputing the fact that NCW could have won these games anyway but the facts are that they played these players to give themselves an advantage otherwise why take the risk!
What will the punishment be? most likely is another 3 point deduction!

Looks like Broadford are goin to dominate for a few years if they keep there squad together for a few years Very poor league this year IMO.....NCW only team good enough to challenge this sason and even they fell way short they have lost more players of late so I cant see them being a force David O'Connor Keith Power and paul madigan have all gone recently so they must be struggling... it would be a disaster to see rathkeale go down anything is posible..... big win for Glin last wekend they seem o always do enough to stay up....Any views?

i have been keeing an eye on Gary Shanahans progress at Dundalk he seems to be doing well

**tricky** · 12/04/2012, 10:13 AM

Yeah he scored two goals the other day in league cup

**Limk Soccer** · 12/04/2012, 11:39 AM

Lads what yer predictions for Division one? Killeaney and Carrig will win on sunday..i can see a draw with Rockhill and Athea...
Come end of May Killeaney to be champions with Carrig been promoted?? Im afraid if Rockhill draw on sunday and if Killeaney beat them it will be a bad finish to the season for them..
