Went to the Cross 2nite and watched a good cup final. Knockraha went 1 up after about 20 mins. Patrick Long made it 1-1 when he scored from Mark Nolans corner. Glen went 2-1 up early in the 2nd half when John Corcoran held off a few Knockraha defenders before finishing well. Glen then missed a penalty which could have wrapped it up. Knockraha were very big all over the pitch and made it 2-2 from a corner. Glen went straight up the pitch and went 3-2 up when Dean Mulryan buried man of the match William Corcorans fantastic driven cross. In fairness to Knockraha they kept putting the high ball into the Glen box and it was causing all kinds of problems. But the Glen held on for a deserved victory in the end.
Coachford going be minus a few players for 2nd leg of semi they have no hope of winning now.be no harm because few they missing were shocking in first leg...as regards teams going senior.any premier aul team with good vacilities can go senior if accepted.few teams in senior that wouldn't last aul premier!!!
Also went up to the Michael's Cup final at Turner's Cross. Great game of football in fairness and a good showing for 1st division teams. Glen deserved there win in the end, had alot of chances throughout the game and should have put away 2/3 more. In saying that, they where very lucky that it didnt go to extra time because knockraha had 2 very good shouts for pen in 1 passage of play a few min from the end. Also Knockraha had a goal disallowed which was a joke, high ball in and there was 2 knockraha players went for header, Glen keeper came out and got beaten to it and there was a free given out. Think the ref bottled it with that and the pen decisions. Was afraid to give them to be honest. Glen have some lovely players and well able to play ball, will be a very strong prem A team next year. Only thing is they will need to get a bit of height into the team. Makes me wonder how Kinsale the Set Play specialists couldnt score in 110min against the glen. Anyway well done to Glen and also Knockraha who gave us a great game, worth the €5!!!!!!
I hear that Zero teams have applied to MSL to date, but a few applications are expected
Just remember, every kick makes me stronger and more determined. Indians always come back!
I have spoken with the chairmen of three of the clubs mentioned and they have confirmed that they will be applying. Looks like a much weakened AUL from next season, could probably take the loss of one or two teams as in the past but if four or five top teams were to go at the same time???????????
buttevant with the set up they have are going full steam ahead,it would be no harm to see the aul get a full revamp anyway .a comeing together of the two would be ideal ,aul and msl .but i somehow cant see it happening.well done to the glen last night on their cup victory,.
Not the first time this has happened. In the nineties Castleview, Temple , Mayfield and Ballincollig all left at the same time. And it has happened other times before that. It will hurt for a while but new teams will soon fill the void. Have it on good authority that all the teams mentioned have spoken to the MSL, they might not have applied yet but all are definetly interested. Depends on who the MSL want and they can be fairly picky.
there no such thing as a bad pint.there are ony pints and better pints.
I can see 2 or 3 coming up from the AUL. It should be the winners of the AUL get an invitation to MSL. There are a few teams in the MSL that shouldnt be up there. Will Temple move back down to AUL?

off topic here lads. anybody know why 1 off your cork refs is reffin here in limerick, a buttimer?
Gold is for winners......
I see kinsale had a big win over the weekend, hearing they've applied for msl from a v good source. Would be great to see em go up! Can't comment on other prem aul teams applying cos I don't know enough about them, but played casement last week in div 2, and they are definately not a div 2 team! By far the best team we have played this season.
ha ha. he must have done some damage to your club so cos we're delighted with him here. as for your opinion that he shouldnt be LOI, I watched the pats v rovers game and he looked solid enough to me. course our standard of game here is higher than yours in cork so maybe you want offside and free kicks when you ask and not when referee decides. anyway ye have plenty LOI refs in Cork so we're claiming him. until further notice that is. ha ha
Gold is for winners......
Anyone know why the Greenwood v Killumney game was off tonight?
I think it was because of john egan removal was on tonight,
Great result for Springfield tonight away to Castleview. Won 3-0!.
