Do clubs still charge people to go and watch them? Fair play, we'd get no one up if we charged them. Don't think I've seen anyone in div 1 charge money thus far.

Our pitch in fermoy is going to have a junior game tomorrow and a senior game sun. At the moment both are on. It's not supposed to rain after tomorrow morning and our surface is good. No need for us to have to give up home advantage if our pitch is playable.

And people pay it and it helps out the club. Club aren't in a good financial position so they try to raise funds in anyway they can. If you have suggestions for other ways the club can raise money then please suggest them. Thanks.

Just to correct you Avondale charge €3 a game as printed in the echo

Most Premier games have linesmen which last time I checked cost a total of €131.50. Thats nearly €1,200 for referees for home league games alone. As I said before the linesmen are a waste of time. I've no prob with clubs charging to try to offset the cost.

Have to disagree that linesmen are a waste of time,costly yes but you cant expect a ref to make a call on an offside/onside which could ultimately decide a league/relegation!

**lawman** · 19/11/2011, 8:18 PM

as stated above, linesmen are costly, but they can be very effective if as suggested they were called upon to make a tight onside/offside call that could ultimately decide the result of a game/league........ thats all provided they get the call correct

but who are we to say if they are right or wrong? sure we really dont even know all the rules of the game, and before somebody beats me to the punch, I know I know, they dont either. Nevertheless, I would love to have them at all our games. And to offset the officials expenses I have proposed on numerous occasions that we find a sponsor each fortnight. Supermarket owner this week, pub owner the next game etc etc.. Anybody agree?

Every other league in cork lets the ref make these calls

The rest are junior leagues! The top league in cork should and does have linesmen

i watched corinthians v. everton today,not a great game. Corinthians had the better chances but Everton scored against the run of play from distance. Keeper should have done better. Both teams not good enough to challenge for the league but too good to be in a relegation battle. It looked to me like everton were missing a lot and i was told Mike Mcsweeney Kieran Keneally Chris Madden Aidan O Mahony and Paul Burke were amongst those missing for corinthians. Where are all these players??????????????

Fermoy 1-1 Midleton in Munster Senior Cup.

Fermoy won it on penalties, Mick devine saved one and we scored all 5. Midelton took the lead 15 or so into second half, ten mins later great work by Graham Byrnes saw the midleton keeper take him down in the box. Pen and red card. Scored pen, but couldn't push on and get winner. Midelton coped with ten very well with Knowlsey up top on his own.

Glad to get through it, bring on the big guns.

Thanks billynomates. I think ringmahon4ever worries more about Avondale then his club, he likes to write more about us anyway. Not being cheeky or anything but you're not gonna get people paying to watch a 1st div side. I have no problem paying to watch the top sides

**ringmahon4ever** · 21/11/2011, 10:26 AM

ha ha are you actually serious.how did i know you would say something like that.if i really wanted to say wat i think about your club id be banned from this site. I was merely sayin it because ye advertised it on echo that ye were gonna charge. The topic was after been raised so people just added on.personally i dont agree with it but thats my opinion and prob some people out there might or might not agree with me..
