but everything else was there heart / passion / attitude , etc
how many times did you see him play / play against him...

this is only our opioion of people invlolved in clare league ... very easy to slag us off ... we are all not superstars from the great limerick league ..

thank you old boy,
i'm not having a pop at first, but played with a lot of those lads mentioned and many more good players and if i was to name one player to have in my corner mannix be the one. (a committed cossie the other)

Correct... OT team play in Cork next Saturday so any team with players involved in this game will not have a fixture on the Sunday.

**OpenGoal** · 13/01/2006, 1:53 PM

what a plie of sh*t. why cant oscar traynor matches be played midweek under floodlights? Combination of calling off matches unneccessarily and now this Oscar Traynor business is ruining the season. A few teams in the 1st division(oly & corofin) have only a handful of league games played and this looks set to continue while the current monkeys are in charge.

in fairness this game was down to be played twice before christmas and west cork fecked about. it's just unfortunate that the weather is **** in ireland and this weeks fixtures are off. (although i think they shouldn't as by sunday some or most pitches might be playable) oly had good run in munster and fai games also added to them having only played 5 games, not traynor. don't know reason why corofin have only 4 played as i think they went out of everything early.

i think avenue are asking for the ballinhassig game to be played. get it out of the way and use the rest of the squad. i suppose they need games before they play star at the end of the month

Yeah, Lydon etc are not responsible for the weather i know, but we(olympic) have had a load of matches called off as part of "blanket bans" when our pitch was perfectly playable. They should let the referee's of each of the particular matches make this decision on a sunday morning.

Also for the OT thing, playing under floodlights in the midweek, is far more appealing to me than wasting a weekend of club footbal, but i guess its different for the players involved. Anyone agree? Or not maybe? We are cancelling games for 120+ players potentially for the sake of 15?? Doesnt make sense to me. Just a suggestion. Anyone on the OT panel here? What do ye think? midweek or weekend?

still a legend though.

OK I stand corrrected,must be alzheimers...but I still remember him leaving the winger to go inside and the ball played out to the winger who scored.Was it the same guy (outside left) who scored the penno also???

Foe sheers class, skill and guts theres only one Sean Lyndsay,next Tommy Mcdade a very cute centrfoward,also played cetre half and won Newtowns first league as a midfield general.Dont forget Rocksy for great guts and energy and he did it up till he was about 50!!!Donal Magee Snr was also rock solid and great in the air at centre half even though he wasnt a big man.What a bout Alan Meehan??

Some big big Prem games also this weekend, premier managers must be having second thoughts about releasing players for Saturdays game. The clare league cannot win in these situations though. If they had cancelled the games they would have received complaints also.

All clubs with players involved were contacted and asked if they wanted to play next Sunday or not. Rineanna were the only team to say they would prefer not to play. All other teams asked to play....

Good call from the Lg to give clubs the choice. Lets give them some credit when its due...
