They signed off the Aul buy winning the Premier on the trot again for good measure. A style of play is what we all aspire to,just cause its not easy on the eye it dosent mean we shouldnt show it any less respect. Who do you think is remembered,the ones who play nice or the ones who won. Folks have forgotten about lots of sides who played good ball. Cant see anyone forgetting about Kinsale any time soon.

ok 1st the guy you mention under your post is my uncle. 2nd i admire what they won. 3rd i didnt like their style of play thats my opinion ...4th the people that had to buy the footballs wont ever forget it id say.

I prefer to win playing pretty week in week out but thats obviously not going to happen so your going to have to win ugly sometimes just like we did at the weekend was a right battle on a shocking pitch, but we would never go out with the intention to win ugly just think its wrong wouldnt enjoy going out playing like that every week.

you wouldnt enjoy winning? 3 points is all that matters at the end of the day. scrappy 1-0 or a flamboyant 4-0 same reward. at this level your never going to get style and substance avondale being the exception.

i dont have a problem with losing if my team puts in a shift and has a go. however if we were just pretty to watch and completley toothless id have a problem with it

How could anyone like losing??No matter what way ya play

**Kearney** · 11/12/2012, 7:48 AM

I think he has a fair point. All he is trying to say is that while Kinsale were so successful which was great he didn't like there style of play. They will be known as winners but lumpers. Where as Barcelona will be known as the greatest team to ever play ball whilst winning trophys. It is about winning but it is definitely about playing the right way. Look at avondale. Look at the top junior sides in the country. They love a battle but love nothing more than knocking it around. Should teams aspire to that? I think so. Yes some teams cant but if there's an opportunity to play then play. Some teams wouldn't dream of doing that. There's a couple of good teams at the minute trying to play football + win. Most from what I have seen this year are doing ok. Just because Kinsale + rockmount played that style doesn't mean its right. I bet if u asked these medal winners from those teams what they thought I'm sure they would say they would have loved to play a bit more

i hate losing but if you lose and play well then there.s not much to work on to get the balance so that you dont lose again its hard to explain.keep playing your football no matter what and
it gets its rewards.its like red cards you cant have to much of that in your team but a certain amount of yellow cards and silverware go hand in hand.you can be hard and nasty in a nice footballing way .

Look at the end of the day,No player or manager is gonna give a **** how they win and thats a fact every team is different you play to your strengths and if that mean's playing unattractive or playing attractive football no one cares as long as they win.
