Clare League 2012/13

Connolly V Tage 2 all...Draw probl a fair result. tage went up 1 nil after ten mins but Connolly got 2 goals from set pieces before half. Tage fought hard in second half and got deserved equaliser. Greg howard sent off for two yellows. Both sides had chances to win. Also think another connolly player sent off at the end, think Yan feck. Connolly dangerous from set plays but thats about it. Pitch out there doesnt help either.

Looks like Newmarket are out of the chase for the title after their bad loss to Lifford , - just woundering with the loss of Stephen , Enda Kelly , Kieran Devitt { the former Rovers lads } has this taken the bite out of the push for the 3 in a row . Avenue's to lose now IMO .

It looks like the league is over alright and Avenue's results have been impressive. Planners, the lads you mentioned would be a big loss to any team. Its also hard to keep a run like theirs going for as long as they managed it.

i agree planners, the rineanna boys were massive additions to nwmkt n contributed to their success, without them they havent reached the heights of last 2 seasons, hard to keep it going every year, cant see avenue blowing the lead they have,, cup should be interesting with strong teams left in qf's when is the draw?

**LegendStriker10** · 09/04/2013, 9:04 AM

Newmarket only had the Rineanna boys last season they won the league the year before as well

**First** · 09/04/2013, 9:34 AM

You would think the league was over. Newmarket have 9 games left and if they were to win them all, and they are capable of it, they won't be too far off.

Stupid by Connolly to play an illegal player in the cup considering they have member on the Clare committee.

Must be an embarrassment to mike Leydon, have kilkishen been awarded the tie?

is leydon also involved in management of connelly as well .. if so does not look good that a senior league figure involved in this

**First** · 14/04/2013, 5:07 PM

Going to assume this was an error by Connolly and the league will give a report on the outcome if of course Kilkishen have lodged an objection. Have they?

Anyway, on another matter well done to Avenue in finally moving into their new home in Roslevan. Well done and the best of luck with it all. Although I do hope there are more home losses than wins there.

Ya Kilkishen have lodged an appeal which is going in front of the clare league at a meeting on Monday night. Rather embarrasing for Lydon alright espically considering he was at the match in question. Kilkishen even had three players suspended for the match aswell but didnt play any of them obviously. Have it good authority that connelly arent going to contest the appeal so not sure what happens next. Do Kilkishen get the result or what happens?

**mouldedstuds** · 15/04/2013, 7:26 AM

if connolly played an illegal player then kilkishen will be awarded the tie.
congrats to avenue on the new grounds, looks decent

Oh I'm sure it was just a simple mistake, the wrong name on the card must've been a error too...

Mountshannon Celtic W/O Burren United Scr.

Are they going to give everyone a WO?

On the league table they have 0 points, they had 3, have they pulled out?
No update on the CDSL site.

**dirtfree** · 15/04/2013, 3:44 PM

If you give a walkover you also lose an additional 3 points

Donie not involved with them this season. Disgraceful stuff to be throwing out walkovers in the Premier. Burren will be in big trouble if they give another one.

Rule 47:
a) Teams failing to fulfill fixtures shall be fined €125 and deducted 3 (three) points where applicable for each failure.
c) A Junior team who fails to fulfill a fixture on 2 (two) occasions during a season, shall be automatically suspended from the Clare League for the rest of the season and the following one. This team will also have to pay a bond of €250 to come back into the League.
