i know what you mean, i know the area well donaldihno! but it must be hard for the players who are not playing g.a.a.
It's just a problem we always have to get on with for years..As I said its not an excuse!
Millsteet played football final last Sunday..got beat 8-0 by Glenvale at home..this weekend beat a good greenmount team 5-2..
As killer said look at Newmarket,how good they were,which he is right!But come march,April,may, ul have to see..
This was and will be always a problem down here where gaa comes first..
We had two workin Sunday and John d in Scotland..so it was just this Sunday I hope![]()

Thats a tough one toto as a fair number of those already picked would be on most peoples panel, off the top of my head any of these guys are worth a look;
Forde and Buckley Kilumney, Bevan and B.ODriscoll, Blackstone, Lynch Kanturk, Skillington Coachford,Pa Long Glen Celtic, Montgomery,Betts Cathedral, Buckley Waterloo,
Im sure there are many others that can be added. I wouldnt have seen many sides yet this season.
Our club folded in 2005 because it had been depending on gaa heads for years. The soccer lads would play start of season then get dropped for most of the season and then come march would be begged to come back to play. When we took over in 2009 we got rid of it all. Soccer lads come first, gaa lads free to play but never first choice no matter how good. So we have 2 gaa lads in the whole squad. Complete dose for the team and the club going forward if we still did that especially now that our gaa team has gone senior in hurling...
No ban yet!!! I voiced an opinion and all sorts of toys were thrown out of the pram? Some of the MSL have a serious superior attitude and cant take any criticism or negative opinion. A serious bit of gamesmanship from Crosshaven and if you point it out they go bananas. I think they doth protest too much. I saw some antics on Saturday that I commented upon big deal. My mate Dave Hall is in the process of regenerating Leeside at the moment. They're playing some fantastic stuff and have been really unlucky in their first few matches. They play some seriously good stuff but they are a young team and that has its problems. One thing is evident though and that there seems to be a strong contingent of people on the forum that are more than happy to stick the boot into Leeside when ever they can. Dave commented that he found it hard to bring in the players he wanted as no one wanted to go down there. He'll get them motoring without a doubt but I dont think he was aware of the ABL brigade. (Anyone bar Leeside)
Don't know if you are new to this forum toto but if you want to know why people are quick to have a pop off leeside then you should go back over older posts or even last years forum. They are always the 1st to post when they win or do well but go missing when things don't go their way. Their full of excuses and the way they act on here its no surprise people cant wait to come on and have a go off them. Even their snide remarks regarding other teams would make u laugh. Your new and that's fair enough, you are expressing an opinion which you are more than entitled to but there is a way and a means of conducting yourself.
Well read the last few pages of the senior league forum or late night posts by booboys last year. They always throw out sneaky comments and snide remarks. Very quick to post all their good results, not so quick when things aren't going well. Like last year they were very quiet.

Any dates for the mossie qf games ?
It's great you put the soccer lads first but for must clubs this would mean a severely less competitive team. Clubs may moan about gaa players but without them some would have no chance of success. You can't blame players for choosing GAA over soccer because in this county it's number 1 in terms of the prestige of winning a competition for your town, the attendances at games, the level of sponsorship, members in the club, facilities and last but not least exposure in local and national newspapers plus Internet. Until playing Aul soccer and playing GAA are level on all these points then the dilemma of players choosing one sport better than the other will be over. But we might as well be honest that's never going to happen.......unfortunately
Whats going on lads? See on Corkaul.com they have added a few more names to the oscar traynor squad for a couple of friendlies next week.
Think its a great way to see certain players playing together. Gives the players a good run out rather than having 15 sitting on the bench.
