Same here the club captain leading by example-what a joke

I don't care let them off they will blow it again and then blame someonelse, no self control or respect for anyone at the club!!! They don't deserve to go up with this behaviour, I feel sorry for the ones who stay in and behave themselves.

Who is the club captain i didnt know Olympic had one,and as for feeling sorry for the ones who stay in dont worry about them i think they get plenty of sleep when all the other clubs are out searching the disco for Olympic players...do ye have any lives lads,

[MadMick]

Ya we do.To answer your question though the A team captain is the club captain.Im not here to name names everyone knows who he is especially you 4-4-2.If he was as dedicated as he thinks he would simply go out on friday night and sunday if he wishes.Anyway i dont care but you wont win anything with lads like this.

He wasn't the only one was he Opengoal and Handyman?

I think you will find that the Olympic A players will stand side by side each other and if one has to stand up and be called captain then i can think of no one better then the current captain and i for one will do everything he needs me to do to get us up

Shannon Olympic lost their first league game this season but have not lost since.Would 7 games unbeaten be a sustained run of results?

Well you've had 3 draws on that run haven't you & 2 of them coming against the bottom team in the division so you've got to consider that as having dropped 4 points. With your ambitions being so lofty you should be beating Kilrush as most of the other contenders have.

The point I was making anyway was that if one of the teams can get a sustained run of wins together it should prove decisive as everyone is dropping points at the moment.

I think the one team thats capable of that is Bridge Celtic.

Bridge Celtic are the team of the League and should easily beat Rock and Tulla to take control of the league this weekend!!!! The rest will have to settle for the minor placings in this league, fancy them to get to the Cup Final as well as long as they don't face Bridge Utd, the team is good enough to beat everyone else in the competition.

Any tips for Cheltenham Handyman?!!Hermitage for the cup lads??What do ye reckon?

[BallBreaker]

Haven't been around for a few days so had a lot of catching up to do,i have been involved in clare soccer for a long time and it is rapidly declining,when you have the likes of P---- Dunne still reffing a match it says it all.The Clare league are a joke,i read one comment who said maybe the clare league could show us the way forward(No Chance) they take €30 per player signed into their coffers.They don't want to give anything back to the clubs,As for clubs being loaded and able to afford things(Bullsh!t) no club is loaded they just have a dedicated small number of people who take every opportunity to fundraise,as far players,95% of them never put anything back into the club,what would it take for a few 1st team players to go maybe once or twice a week and train young kids,nah can't be bothered.loads more to say but haven't the time at the moment,i would like to hear your replies as i strongly believe Clare soccer is dying on it's feet

Totally agree that some people don’t put the time back in, but mentioning names on the site especially a ref (a dieing breed without them you don’t have soccer)that might not be the best and most liked around, but has put year into soccer in Clare,if he retires you have one less.

Anyone who witnessed his display last sunday would have to agree that his retirement would be the best thing to happen Clare League soccer ina a very long time. I've been playing for the one club for 23 seasons and always the main reason was for the enjoyment. However, going out on a pitch to endure what that man does to a soccer match couldn't possibly be classed as enjoyment. It's no wonder people slag off Clare League referees. In the past few weeks, I've seen Martin O'Brien who in my opinion reffed our game to a professional standard ... the best I've ever seen in junior soccer, Dave Mc Carthy who did almost as well and Paddy Mulready who, while he made a few mistakes was willing to put his hands up and admit it and ref the game in a fair and sporting manner. Then to have what was a good opinion of the standard of refereeing in clare blown out of the water on sunday last was downright depressing. Rant over ... for now

Why would you think that if everyone is dropping points.They have had 6 months to put a run together but they havent done it.We have been hearing all season they are the best in the division but they lost twice to teams we had no problems with.Maybe mountshannon will put a run together or bunratty b.

True they've had 2 poor losses away from home & I think you'll find that in the 6 months of the season so far have been interrupted by their participation in the FAI & the weather (which goes for all teams). If they get a chance to get a run of games every week & build up a head of steam they could do damage. They beat ye didn't they ??

[oldspice]

Looking at the 1st division table at the moment, it's difficult to gauge who's really going well because teams have played different numbers of games, so how about this : Mountshannon have 19 points from a possible 33 (11 games) which is a 56% return, Rock : 19 points from 36 or 53%, Corofin : 18 points from 33 or 55%, Olympic : 15 points from 24, 63%, Tulla : 15 points from 27, 56%, Bridge : 13 points from 21, 62%, Kilmaley : 12points from 27, 44%, Bunratty : 8 points from 27, 30%, Kilkishen : 7 points from 21, 33%, and Kilrush : 5 points from 39 : 13%. If my figures are correct, that leaves Olympic on top, slightly ahead of Bridge Celtic, with a gap to Mountshannon and Tulla, Kilrush bring up the rear with Bunratty and Kilkkishen too close for comfort.

[Pauliwallnuts]

Anyone know why Kilkee gave Tulla B a walkover at the weekend in Div 3 ??

[CousinSylDolan]

Anyone know why Kilkee gave Tulla B a walkover at the weekend in Div 3 ??

Tulla United B scr Kilkee W/O

This result means Tulla B scratched the game and Kilkee got the walkover.
