Tricksey, you clearly have got the wrong information. Danny has had an ankle injury and will be back next week. Has been injured. Why would he wanna leave Avondale. League and intermediate cup winner in his first season plus an international cap. Lads Corinthians will not be up there come end of season. Avondale the far superior team.
I'm only saying what I was told and I have no interest really In either team but why won't cors be there at the end ?
Corinthians only going improve.picking up big wins and points in games where they normally struggle.theyll be top 2,no doubt
Some of the Dale lads not getting games would, you assume, be getting restless, but the rotation there is good and seems to keep them all hungry. Incredible management to be fair thus far. Hats off to all concerned, but only natural that rumours will crop up as there are lads there that would walk into any other team.

The above is all opinion and based on personal experience. Unless stated otherwise it is not a dig at anybody, well probably none of you lot.
Thats a bold statement "Corinthians wont be up there at the end of the season". Whats it based on? Im curious. Is it based on away form? Win away at The Hall scoring 4, At Marys scoring 5 and a great 1 nil up in Whitechurch. Maybe its based on cup form, is it? They won 2 cups last season and are in the Semi Final of the Keane cup and the next round of the Intermediate cup. Oh no, its the home form. Thats right, they have dropped 2 points at home !
Im not saying that they are gonna be world beaters, or even win the MSL for that fact but come on give credit where its due. 13 points out of a possible 15 and going well in cup competitions, on the back of the improvement last season, where might I add, a far superior Avondale team scraped a couple of results !
I think Avondale a superb outfit with quality all over the park and have no qualms in saying it. I know one thing for sure, the games between Dale and Corinthians could have a lot to say about where the title ends up this season. Lets just wait and see in May if Corinthians "will be up there" as you put it !
And on the matter of why anyone would leave any club. Football is cyclical there was a time when Corinthians and Dale for that matter were not even in the Premier. I remember when Cotts, Hargy, Damo and the like signed for Avondale. Why would ex league of Ireland players sign for a 1st division side? Progress, thats why. Maybe, and im not saying they are gonna go to Castletreasure, players like the way Corinthians are moving forward, back to where they should be. Maybe its the facilities, maybe its a difference in opionion with management. Lots of reasons guys move from club to club and at this point players with Corinthians are still in the hat for the Intermediate and top of the MSL and in a Keane cup semi final.
I went to Blarney v Leeds on saturday. Leeds full deserved their win from what I saw, missed a peno too they did.
Blarney could have snatched a draw at the death when great free kick from Ray O'Leary was headed onto the post.
Leeds well on top though and missed a lot of chances, Blarney's keeper was excellent too. As well as saving the penalty he made another few great saves and looked v assured. I dont know will either of these teams be winning this league, neither looked like world beaters.
I have seen College Cors once this season and looked excellent, is there some Cork City lads up there as well ? Are these lads there until the end of the season of can they be recalled ? Be only concern I'd have, hard to see beyond Avondale to winning the league but College Cors looks the best of the rest right now
I had the pleasure of watching both teams this season and to be honest both teams impressed me. Personally I think the head to head games will be a good measure of how far Corinthians have come over the last few seasons as a team but I don't think they will decide were the title goes. Corinthians have definitely added an element of steel and ruthlessness to their team this season which for me is a big difference on last season. Avondale retain that ability to step up the gears when needed and the depth of the squad is fantastic with quality just about everywhere. Operating on all fronts in all competitions is a big ask for an amateur team and I think this might be the area were Corinthians might find tough. Like I've said in previous posts I don't think titles are won or lost in the head to heads its winning the sticky games. Avondale had a sticky one against Marys at the start of the season as did Corinthains with Everton at home. I think who ever can limit these lapses whilst still operating on all fronts (Keane Cup, Intermediate Cup, Munster senior) will come out on top. I think Avondales experience might prove to be the deciding factor in the end but no one can doubt the progress this season with Corinthians the question is it a year too soon???
I don't no is it a year to soon for Corinthians or not but if the can hold onto Luke Connelly as long as possible before the gaa season starts that's a big positive + if the two dale lads come on board in December it will obviously give cors a boost
Is it true that senior teams can only sign 2 players in the transfer "window"
Surely not chief ? That would be a joke of a rule.
That's not true, as far as i know there's a limit to the squad size at any one stage of the season so it doesn't matter when you sign players. i could be wrong
i bet Everton can't wait for the league game v Avondale this weekend. Good luck with that one
you deleted a post that i put up over the weekend that i thought was fair and to the point,i did not use the wrong typing or verbally abuse anyone, why was this? i thought this was a forum where we could express our opinion..obviously i was wrong.
Clubs can only sign two players from within the MSL, they can sign as many as they like who are not already registered with the MSL.
think the rule is you can only sign two players from same club in the msl.

Good Points, well made.
Heard Everton had two players walk out at the weekend when the team was called out. Doesn't surprise me though as its a young team and players are probably frustrated.
