Pike 3-1 Star
Pike went 1nil up after 20mins through a free header at the back post from Grant, a ball that he should never have been allowed win in the air, but that said he took his goal well.
Star levelled on the half hour mark through a well worked goal by Richie Flynn and a fine finish from outside the box.
Just on the stroke of HT the game changed for us as Tierney decides to take a dive just at the edge of the Star area (and before any Pike man comes on here to slate me, Tierney admitted the dive himself when walking away from the incident) and in fairness Eoin Hanrahan stepped up to score a cracking free kick into the top corner with no chance for 2 keepers let alone 1.
Pike had a lot of posession in the second half but in fairness didnt create much up top, and with Star trying to get an equalizer, Hanrahan broke again cut inside and played a one two and this time let fly with his right peg into the far top corner, again keeper no chance.
Overall, a decent enough performance by Star, but sad stories get you fu*k all, so onwards we move to Sunday away v Boro.
Pike: Neville, Boyle, Kavanagh, Enright, Byrnes, Hartnett, Tierney, Hanarahan, Carroll, Grant & Moloney. Res: Ahern, Mullins & E O'Donovan (missing Barry through suspension & ??)
Star: DeLoughry, Collins, Morton, K O'Doherty, Busoli, McDonnell, Flynn, B O'Doherty, Lyons, Hannon, McNamara. Res: Boland, Fitzpatrick & Collopy (missing Butler, K Clancy, D Clancy, Lonergan, Walters, Dillon, Roche & Carey)

Bad enough game by both teams, Carew just about deserve the win..Totally agree with the light issue, was nearly dark when game was over how can they expect games to go ahead next week.. We are not playing well at the moment and our injuries are piling up at the moment.Our 2 Centers halves are out at the moment now through injury and our squad is very bare at the moment, had 2 subs only last night and one hasnt a word of english which is fun to deal with. Hopefully we can get things right in the next few weeks when we dont have to worry about mid week games. Best of luck to Carew for the rest of the season.
fair summation.
fairview were the better team in the first half and went 2-0 up.
kilmallock pulled on back and had the lions share of possession and chances in the second half,but found the keeper(not for thefirst time this season) in inspired form.
pulled of save after save...
thought kilmallock panicked a bit when fairview went down to 9 men with about 12 minutes remaining.
they were creating good chances by slick passing up to that,but for some reason decided to pump balls in the box for what was left of the game.
kilmallock deserved a draw out of it...
but c.doyle(who had a fine game) had a glorious chance with about five to go but missed it.
automatic suspensions i think for fitzgerald and quinn now come in to play for the match sunday morning against carew.nto sure have the "B" team minors games on sunday but some will have to be involved because of this.
both sendings off were by no means stone wall stuff,but neither were they harsh.
seen similar go either way.
actually thought the ref had a decent game...considering what has happened in times past.
as i said earlier,was just happy that the game was on in the green and not kilmallock..could have been very different
I was at the game last night. Big difference in Fitness. Thought Star ran out of Puff on the hour mark. At which point Pike took over complete control of the game. Star took there goal well in fairness. Alot of messing about from Pike however. Too much experimentation with players out of position. It'll be a markedly different team that will face Janesboro in the FAI, you won't have Kavanagh/Boyle playing left and right back.
Borris scored a cracking freekick. Lodging the ball right into the corner of the net. Highlight of the night.
Never said we'd get something out of the game if the above highlighted hadnt happend, but to lose a goal bang on half time for a free that never was, is hard to take,
Re: our "caning" v the B team.............we had 2 sessions under our belt when we played the B team as our manager hadnt been appointed at that time, so wouldnt read into that too much.
As regards your last comment, I havent given any sad stories, I'm just stating the facts, we have a squad of 24 "A" players and were missing 10 last night, due to holidays, work & injury, still not complaining as you can only play 11.

corbally down to play aisling next tuesday at 6.15pm.with all the talk of games finishing in darkness lastnight does anybody know whether this games will be played on the new artificial surface out in annacotty under the lights?surely it would make sense rather than the possibility of lads getting a serious injury playing in the dark?
might depend on aisling tedd.
mr kiely has done a fair share of our matches.. granted.. against pike in bateman last year we got notting.. last 8 in the 17s fai in extra time with the wistle in his mouth to give a penelty did,nt give that would have put them in the semi's..last week gave a free to fairview last minute that made it a draw..and when the manager fliped over it he gave him a red ..so hope you dont feel we get anything off him.. ha ha god bless them all its a thankless job..
