Took in the Bohs and Leeview hae last night poor game Leeveiw with 10 men behind the ball but very surprised on why Bohs didn't switch to 3 at the back and try change it up as they couldn't break down.
How will they tell if they are good enough to play A or not if they don't play them in a competitive fixture???? What better competition to test them out than in the Mossie? Friendlies don't tell much if a player is good enough or not . Competitive games are what shows it
Thats the reason why you play decent teams in Friendly if you have any ambitions to win anything...
Why play shipping league team and win 5 or 6 nil when you can play a Decent 1st division MSL team and get a proper workout..
Alot of teams past 2 or 3 years are playing games against low league teams winning and thinking every thing is gravy but when it comes down to it on A sunday Morning team are not upto it
Agree completely if i was manager of a team id be looking to play opposition that are a level above to see where we are really at. Its the players tho they are so fickle these days lose a couple of friendlies and there looking at other teams battering teams then as you say and they are looking to leave.
I disagree with you on this . Friendlies can be pretty much meaningless other than for getting your fitness up . So many substitutions in games disrupt the flow of the game and you cant really tell anything a lot of the time regardless of the quality of the opposition . You don't get to see a players true worth until they are playing in a game that actually means something
I Agree with you 100% regarding to many subs can ruin a game that's why you tell the lads in training or on Match day look lad's these games are all about getting a look at everyone some peoplemight play 90 some 45 ans some very little time but their is also another game on thursday where other lads will get their chance..
Not play some shipping league crowd win 4-0 Player A got 3 on Wednesday A MJL team win 6-1 Player A got 4 but On a wet Sunday morning down in Rylane getting changed out of a portocabin Player A is moaning about having 2 odd socks and mot getting A sniff... Know your team before league starts..
Friendlies are meaningless unless the you have the fellas signed first day. Mossie is good prep for the league. I think the teams knocked out of the group stages should go in to a shield competition - keep fellas interested through the season.
Northside club looking for 2nd keeper.pm me if interested
Not involved with Leeview lads was just wondering as there seems to be a lot extra B teams this year as of friendlies absolutely pointless playing teams when you know ur going to hockey them just gives a false sense of how good you think you are and more than likely will get found out fairly quickly
