[Minesapint]

who is the manager in the Boro, is it Shane, Daithi, Braddish or Brown, the 4 of them seem to be telling players to do different things, who really is the manager there.

I think it is derek braddish .

Jason Heffernan came on for Hartnett,Davy Ryan for Pa Moloney,Conor Moloney for Paul Doona,Gavin O'Shea the other sub.

You expect pike and balla to beat teams like that but to use that as an excuse is shocking..Carew are a good team but had 3-4 of there better players on the bench.. 18 goals in 3 games is shocking .. It's going to be a long season for hibs.. Let's just hope players keep trying and don't just pack it in..

Hibs777 , missing Eddie for three games is going to be a loss. But also heard Jay Regan is gone back to Olympic & Davy Wall Newmarket. Any truth in these rumours?

If that's true its a big loss to hibs, Davy has the experience of playing in the premier and jay is a great player. Cant understand why lads leave a newly promoted team, would they not want to try and test themselves at the highest division (ken & gav going to Shannon town)?

Dirtfree : I believe I said "no excuses though" we deserved to be beaten on the day the 8-0 scoreline suggests that, I was just saying that having a man sent off after 30 mins and playing one of the better teams in the prem doesn't help!

DSMALL and my-right-boot: Yeah I believe Davy has left us, dunno whether he's gone back to Newmarket though and That's the first I've heard about Jay leaving so I'm not sure about that one. Yeah I don't understand why players would want to leave a newly promoted team either, maybe they were afraid to test themselves against the Best teams in limerick, they are doing well with Shannon town now anyway so best of luck to them.

At least you can have a sense of humour about it pal, more than a lot of clown's around here. Best of luck with it, shame a few have jumped ship.

[don't panic]

"Town" Had same problem 2 years ago. Ego's jumping ship after 2 or 3 games

I heard there was a big argument in hibs dressing room last week which led to Davy leaving ... Hope this info is wrong as he would be a massive loss to hibs.. Eddie won't be a big loss to hibs he badly needs to get fit .. Now he will have 3 weeks to train hard

Wasnt a huge argument just a tiff..think davy has left hibs as has 2 U19s players that signed and ken and gavin o donnell from last season, gonna be a tough season..

[dirtfree]

What 19's left and where they go

[Jofspring]

Same could be said with limerick not including this year or last year but for years limerick where gone out of the title race by christmas.

But there was never a case of one team will win it all the time and no point in the other teams competing kind of an attitude. Big difference between that and actually being out of a title race half way through as season.

[Bayern Munchies]

What 19's left and where they go

Alex Cole and Stephen Tuhoy left to go to the bridge under 19's

Don't know how you can say Eddie Dunne isn't a big loss? he has been keeping Gareth Quirke out of the team at left full, bags of experience

[dirtfree]

In all fairness while the 2 lads are great lads and good players neither of the two are premier standard anymore ..they were in 2A last year were they not.. Massive jump up fitness wise and from what I've seen of them both need a bit more fitness wise .. But I suppose playing matches will bring that

1B but yeah I see your point, still two good players in my view none the less.

Hibs vs Wembley called off because of a bad pitch

[AlanOB]

Aisling Annacotty 1-2 Geraldines

Missed the first 20 minutes (and the AA goal) due to delays caused by a bloody bike race. Very close game here which Geraldines did not have all their own way by any means. It was an unfortunate own goal from Dara Droog that gave them the equaliser. The second came just on the stroke of half time after a brilliant through pass was lofted over the keeper. That goal alone was worth the entrance fee. AA pushed hard in the second half and had a number of chances to score, the best being a Darren Harrington header that was brilliantly tipped over by McCarthy late on. But a red card for Conor McCullough took the wind out of their sails and prevented a late siege on the Dines goal. He had been booked in the first half and warned about a later challenge so he can have no complaints but a straight red seemed strange. One of the AA coaches had to be sent out of the ground for giving dog's abuse to the ref however, and that's never good to see.

The Dines have had a great start and in the likes of Tier, Flynn and O'Neill have some nice players but they look very open. They played with 3 forwards today in a 4-2-1-3 and often one of the wide forwards wouldn't track back. Might have to revert to two banks of four against the big teams.
