Pardon my ignorance. But why aren't Waterford Utd in this comp? Would be very surprised if they were knocked out already. Do they not enter this comp??

They sulk in case the final gets to be played in the Cross.

To be fair, the final should be moved around Munster. I know this was done last season, and hopefully will continue.

Also, why dont Limerick play in this?

**Partizan** · 08/02/2005, 12:32 PM

we just couldnt be arsed playing in the Munster Joke Cup, either are Limerick for that matter.

Not 100% sure of the facts on this, but they were given a ban for a few years from it a few years back, because they got to the final (against City) and then didn't turn up for it, because they wanted it moved to accomodate some of their players who were away at the time. I think the ban finished a year or two ago, but they just never bothered coming back.

**Gary** · 08/02/2005, 1:16 PM

They came back one season alright.

I think they lost the final to City, with a Denis Behan free-kick.

correct..think it was from bout 25 yards out, into the shed end..what a goal!

**patsh** · 08/02/2005, 2:33 PM

Didn't Robbie Hederman score against them in a semi-final?

Or am I dreaming?...

This competation is a joke.
Nice for a junior side to come thru and draw the likes of Cork City. But thats it !!, if City want to win this cup again they will.
Its interesting to note junior sides remain while Munster Snr. League sides fall out.

Bet the same thing will happen to Cobh in Clonmel as happened them last year in Carrick, i.e. get stuffed

well as Munsters no.1 club we feel it is worth entering if only to give the u21's an outing.

it'd distract Waterford from their relegation battle i suppose

**irisheagle** · 08/02/2005, 11:06 PM

Munster's Number 1 Club !!, only four Eircom league sides in Munster so it easy to be number one.
Of the four only one have their own ground .. Cobh .. so it hard to call yourself No. 1 when you have no home. Limerick play in Pike Rovers ground, Waterford in the local regional grounds, and Cork at the home of The Munster FA

Most top Junior sides in Munster purchased their grounds years ago yet Eircom League clubs depend on others to supply. All the cash raised by junior clubs goes back into their facilities, the cash taken by Eircom clubs into the pockets of players and officals. So number 1 yes !!

Cobh Ramblers ! Yes Joke!

**Partizan** · 09/02/2005, 11:04 AM

well, at least Cobh are the only Munster club with their own ground at present.

if you really want to find out who are numero uno in the province, 3 of the sides can clain to be unique in their own regard.

Cobh: own ground.

Waterford U: Most sucessful team in Munster to date

Cork City: biggest support in Munster.
