Limerick Division 1B 2007/08

[abbeyvale]

It is a pity really that Croom won the league over two weeks ago.
I suppose COONAGH will have a handy one Sunday against CROOM.

I still find it strange why PROSPECT got the pts off ST.PAT'S when ST.PAT'S werent even informed by the LDMC about the objection and they say that no illegal player was played against PROSPECT.

Dont think any other games will be played now, other than the games effecting the bottom of the table for relegation........and where did you see Coonagh down to play Croom???

[abbeyvale]

Congratulations to all involved with Prospect. Best of luck in 1A next season. I think you'll do well. 1A isn't far from being the same standard as 1B in my opinion. A few more players and you just never know.

Yeah, Congrats to Prospect on promotion, see you next season in Div 1A.

It turns out that St.Pats played 2 players who had been sent off in their previous game. Their names were even on the card. St.Pats were informed of it but didnt argue it.

Congrats to Prospect.

Dont know where Gerrard saw Coonagh down to play Croom. Coonagh are playing Park in the cup on Sunday morning.

It's not on paper.They still have to play each other though but i dont think there's any point now.

Rumour has it that Hill Celtic may be winding up at end of season which would allow third place in 1B to go up

[old git]

Well done to Prospect...Held their nerve in a very tight league ....

Pity Croom won league so soon as it would have been great if it went down to the wire...

Anyone an idea when the cup games are on and where ?

pity croom won league so soon well done to croom for winning league so soon would be more like it always nice to win it as early as possible

[holyx]

Murroe beat Knockainey last night, not sure of the score.
Congrats to Prospect on promotion, well deserved.
Re Crooms recent form - you can't blame the club for giving a run to the players who didn't get many runs over the season, which their early win has allowed them to do. As we all know it's hard enought to keep players interested and training etc
When you see what Kilmallock & Dromore have done this season the standard in 1A can't be much different from 1B. Think Croom & Prospect can give it a good go.

what is offical rules / word would league jjust not start league next year minus hill celtic & the 2 promoted teams .. also teams that got relegated to 1 b may also look to stay in 1 a due to hill celtic supposedly winding down

The year Park left the Premier, Herbertstown were promoted from third I think?
I said this very thing on here the other day and was told that it's rubbish, that it isn't happening???.

yeah, hill tried to stay up. I think park left it late then to notify about dropping down a division as the fixtures were out an all.
Bad blow to park and finnan not going up. Not good for the amalgamation either as newtown have little to offer from their a team as they were relegated from clare premier....

Yes, but look at the fixtures for this Sunday..........do you see Coonagh v Croom??

As I said, those games will hardly be played now, as there is no point.....Normally what the LDMC do is award a point to each team, when there is no need to play a particular game, unless of course the Hill Celtic rumour is true.......then it could be a very different story, where I am sure the 3rd place team in the division below (which is 1B) Hill Celitc, would be promoted (as was the case when Park dropped from Prem a few seasons back and it allowed Herbertstown to go up as the 3rd place team in Div 1A)

As far as I know the amalgamation is agreed in principle. Only stumbling block is the lottery grant Newtown got. Although I didn't hear that from the men themselves.
We needed to get up this year.
Could have a massive effect on who goes where next season.
Will the Newtown lads want to be playing in 1B next year? I doubt it!!!

Played in clare prem last year and 1b this year,there is very little difference in standards, top 4 or 5 in 1b would give any clare prem team a good game.imo

[larrywhite]

I have a heard that they was talk about amalgamating Carew and Hill Celtic but its now not happening. They are just going to ground share next season instead.

If there was a chance of it happening then 3 clubs would go up as relegated teams are not allowed to stay up if a team pulls out. Thats in the rules and the reason Hill Celtic didnt get to stay up the year Park came down. It happens every summer in at least one division in the league.

Also on the Croom game, in case Gerrard hasnt noticed but I am invloved with Coonagh and the Croom game will not be played unless we want to but theres no point travelling out there now. We already travelled out there this season twice without playing so Im not going again.

don't be putting down the clare preimer league .. seen a good few 1b games and some were dire .. including your games with park
so i'm not sure about standards being the same

Larry why would Coonagh not try to secure 3rd spot "IF" and its a big if the Hill Celtic thing turns out to be true...this would norm happen in the summer so I would think you could be costing your club a "Chance"???

Surely park will try and win the remaining games...as it is Fairview are same points as you and Park 1 ahead...surely the Coonagh club would be annoyed if anthing happened in the summer and you decided not to travel out there due to the fact that their pitch is a disgrace and caused 3 games to be called off>>>>!!

Not putting down the clare league,you must be putting down the 1b league by the sounds of it,
Your always going to get scrappy games in junior football,well ive played in both leagues so could judge it a bit more than you
