Pre Season Friendly- Clonmel Town 1 Waterford Crystal 1

**C.T.F.C** · 26/07/2006, 7:43 PM

Town and Crystal played out a 1-1 draw last night at the complex. Town were completely in control in the first half with impressive debuts from Goggsy Reade at centre half and a goal scoring return for the prodigal son Aaron Moroney. Debuts also for Michael Coady and some Polish bloke. Both looked comfortable at this level. Crystal came back into the match in the second half and deservedly equalised allbeit against a second string following a host of substitutions. Both teams rattled the woodwork on several occasions after this but a draw was a fair result. John Delaney did the honours with the offical opening of the new dressing rooms and all weather pitsh. Nice to see the the dressing rooms dedicated to the memory of the late Johnny Kane. Any news on other signings around the league?????

Another season in the making and the top two seem to be improving their teams again. Obviously enough we can see from previous posts Aaron Moroney has signed with the Town and a few more will more than likely arrive the rumour mill is going with talk's of another St.Michaels player on his way to town!!!

Paul Tobin,Trevor Cosgrave and an unnamed striker from Limerick are on the squad list for St.Michaels with Colin Bargary from Cashel also reported to be turning out for either saints or the villa in thurles.

Bansha Celtic not expected to start as well as their third place finish of last year would suggest.Loosing a few of their young players due to no youth team being put forward and already having lost some players last year that trend look's to continue, but maybe their new manager will have something to say about that?

What of Peake Villa will the good performances of old return....? Ted O Connor I have been told is moving to the Town?

If the top two continue to take the best players from the rest of the league it will turn into a farce,what we all want is a competitive league so whats the opinion of everyone else what players with the top two should move and where should they go?????

Would the unnamed striker be Alan Barry..

I heard that Michaels are after him..

That's the very man I just couldn't think of it. He is training with them anyway so I guess it's up to him to see will he sign!

Alan is a big strong centre forward. hard to get ball off him and is a good finisher. He played with limerick fc few season ago.

I'm very surprised at Tony Reade signing for Town. I thought he was Carrick thru and thru. Cannot believe that Moroney is described above as a 'prodigal son'. What has changed at Town that convinced him to go back. Charlie is still there. Most of the same players are still there.

Maybe I'm getting too old and I don't understand these things anymore! The mind boggles.

Agree with you.
There were some horrible things said to him by Town fans every time he played against them!! Don't know whats changed

Lets just pause for a minute to allow the saintly Michaels fans to polish their halos

. A delicate bunch of souls who would never resort to name calling????

Aaron is Clonmel born and bred and obviously realised the error of his ways. I wonder how michaels supporters will react when he scores against them this year????? No doubt by acclaiming his sublime skill and his sportsmanship

. As for Tony Reade- another good signing but by all accounts not the only Carrick player on his travels: trouble in the Carrick camp apparently. THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT- THE FUTURE'S ORANGE.

What other Carrick players are moving?

**leather** · 31/07/2006, 8:31 AM

Clonmel 2 Boro 2 Not A Bad Match, Very Odd Ref...

**smellyfeet** · 31/07/2006, 9:48 AM

4 all draw.
this was a great game with the home side leading 3-0 at half time.
Michaels scored 4 in the second half only for Newtown to get the
equalizer with about 5 mins to go

Im sure the Michael's fans will stand and applaud his talent should he score against them!!

Lol- i wont hold my breath waiting for that to happen. I'll bring the camera though just in case. Surely a collectors item

**stephen07** · 01/08/2006, 7:36 AM

Did anyone else hear that David Horan is signing with Michaels from Peake?

**GreenLane OBFC** · 01/08/2006, 8:37 AM

PreSeason Friendly......Old Bridge 5 Carrick Utd 2. Carrick only missing 2 first team players Calf in goal and Minge Ryan. Great performance from The Bridge especially new signings Paul Shanahan from Town and "Whack" O'Donnell from Clonmel Celtic. Two goals from Barry O'Neill and goals from Jamie Kelly and Emmet Ryan. Bridge could do welll this season and maybe another good FAI run is on the cards.

Im delighted to hear bridge are looking strong.. the whole league will benefit..havin town finish on 48 and saints finish on 43 points last season is a joke.. hopefully peake, bridge, celtic, and cahir coming up and all d others will provide big tests and make it a competitive league.. heres to a competitive league..... FYI great coup for St Michaels and the TS&DL.. The FAI will be holding an Amateur International game between Ireland and England on saturday 30th september in cooke park. will be a great occasion for James Walsh as captain and also hopefully for paul Breen and even Adrian walsh, adam mc sharry if all are selected for the final panel. lets hope so...
