    Dazzler,what club are you involved with? you seem to have a chip on your shoulder about the boro.. if you recall pike shared with abbey a few seasons ago,where they stuck for cash???? i doubt it.Boro have 2 PITCHES,Boro are giving carew park the use of their Second pitch as carew are homeless at the moment. it has nothing to do with money...(rent being paid by organisation that took carews pitch from them)other clubs turned them down.. Both pitches are in top condition if a bit soft at the moment,other remidial work is presentley being carried out and other improvement will take place when the weather conditions improve.Dressing rooms are 3years old and top notch.On the financial side, The club has zero debt and rseources available to carry out any improvements that the co'mitte see fit. doubt if many clubs in any sport in limerick are on as sound financial footing as the boro.

    id have to say Corbally.the pich is abit open but the surface is usually good.they have decent dressingrooms and a huge car park.on the field they always have successful schoolboys and there juniors aint half bad either.the players are all from the surrounding areas which i think is very important to clubs.they have an all whether pitch aswell.only thing they are short is a bar which im sure is in the pipeline

    Id agree with you that Corbally Utd have absolutely excellent facilities. Well done to them! You mention them being short a bar. Now maybe this should be for a whole new thread but I dont agree. I dont think soccer clubhouses are the proper place for a bar. Ok I might sound mad, its a great money spinner, especially if you have a function room, (eg Pike, Boro), but theres something that just doesnt sit well with a soccer club floggin drink to people to pay for the promotion of sport?
    Thats my opinion anyway.

    I agree leather, the front pitch does "suck", but I think that'll be dealt with as time goes on. Theres always room for improvement.

    a bar is good for a club cos its somewhere for ex players to go it keeps them some way involved with the club.look at the clubs who dont have them when players finish up they drift away fom the club.

    you couldn't be further from the truth...having a bar is the worst thing for a club...the amount of work that goes into the day to day running of a licensed premises you wouldn't believe, aks any publican, I know one club that would close their bar in the morning if they could.

    Agree with some of your sentiments, but why would a club want to close its bar? and why do you say if it could?

    Sees it, would you not think that if ex-players want to stay involved with a club, they would be better off
    1. getting involved on the committee, I know of a lot of clubs who are basically being run by the same handful of people all the time, people do get tired!

    2 Coaching underage teams or junior teams, we all know its hard to find good coaches!

    3 Helping out with fundraising, I dont know of any club that doesnt need money! and when it comes to fund-raising its always a case of the more involved the merrier. Many hands make light work, etc.

    Propping up a bar might put a few pence into a clubs coffers now and again, but its not really doing the club any good is it?

    The wisest men follow their own direction.

    Oh I couldnt possibly say holycrossjack, but watch this space, Im sure the front pitch will be levelled over the next year or two.
