Well from last years panal-Alan O'Shea and Barry O'Riordan are gone back to Rathkeale,Mark Houlihan based in Dublin,Ronan Sherlock gone back to Corbally,
Pa Moloney going back to Pike,Ado Fitzsimmons and Alan Barry injured,
Alan O'Keeffe work commitments,and Nicky Carroll suspended. Thats 9 players missing from last years team,any club would find it difficult to replace that many players and still get good results.

Hardly the point,i wasnt on about the loss of any particular player, it's the loss of all them collectively which makes the boro a lot weaker than what they wer last season.

john bolye is officially signed and registered with carew park. pike has signed his transfer and he is now a carew park player. IMO i think he is a fantastic player and will be a huge asset to carew.

will he be a loss a pike??

Pike wouldn't have let him go if we thought he was any use,he obviously isn't interested in winning anything...

...wonder how long Carew's decent start will last...usually fades by November...

Best of luck to him anyway..

is that why conny was nearly crying and begging him to stay when he went up the get his form signed. green hoop will you cop yourself on you know aswell as every other pike supporter that he is an excellent player and pike will miss him big time.

i posted at the start of the season that the main aim this season for carew was not to get dragged into a relagation battle like last season. green hoop your the only one talking about carew and the league title.
carew are not going to win the league everyone at carew knows that and everyone around the town does aswell all we have is a good start to the season thats all like UL.

i wonder why boylers wanted to leave pike so much mmmm would anyone like to guess lets see
1. pike are a better team than carew so thats not the reason

2. pike have better FACILTYS than carew so that cant be it

3. he is not going to get a junior cap with carew so that cant be it

i really dont know why he would want to leave pike a club were all the players are treated the same and all the players recive the same things at the end of the week. anyone like to guess why he left pike

**the hoops** · 19/09/2007, 6:53 AM

he got dropped against wembly and was ****ed off over it plus got taken off a good few games this year john thinks hes better than he is thats hes problem he hasnt played a decent game since the fai match against gratten last year it will give wayne o donovan a chance now anyway

**the dazzler** · 19/09/2007, 6:56 AM

your right hoops he really does think he better than he is even lim21s never called him in this year he was hoping for a cap from conny as well its a shame really coz going to carew is really a bad move career wise for him

U spoke as if winning the FAIs up at Pike is the norm.I actually agree with you ala John Boyle - an average player in my view,its just goes to show how low the standard has dropped if we are considering him a top class winger and whats all this nonsense about him getting capped???Come on lads seriously

**see's it** · 19/09/2007, 8:05 AM

alot of talk about caps recently wheres it all coming from?

**leather** · 19/09/2007, 8:22 AM

the pike manager

**MitreSize5** · 19/09/2007, 8:50 AM

as with every one who leaves pike he goes with the best wishes of most people at the club (you'll always have one or two) .... personally I think its a bad move for him, no offence intended to carew, but in the two years he's been at pike he won a league title and a mjc ..... not bad for a 21 year old ... theres a lot of good 30 somethings around who havent won anything of signifigance playing junior for 10 or 15 years.

I've a feeling he may regret this in the future but good luck to him all the same

p.s. Wayne O Donovan has the potential to be a more than ample replacement for him

**leather** · 19/09/2007, 9:48 AM

agree

**Dirk Diggler** · 19/09/2007, 10:02 AM

I totally agree with Mitresize5. He'll be a massive asset for Carew, but Pike have 4 or 5 options to play on the right wing so won't be a major loss. I also think he'll regret this its definately a step back for him again no offence to Carew. Maybe he wants to be a big fish in a small pond ...so on. Best of luck to the lad and as Pa Moloney and Pa McGarry have shown the door is never closed to come back.

I also agree about young dunny he is showing big potential.
