when you say"always seem to be in trouble over illegal players....etc."
can you back this up.
there was one incident last season that was discussed on this forum which you can go back and read about so that it gets cleared up for you.
giving the walkover in the tuohy cup was disappointing for the club but unfortunately there was not enough players signed on A forms(an oversight by management that could not be rectified on time)
i have beeen involved for a few years with the club now and it seems to be very well run.

Sun 30.09.07
Wembley Rvs 3-2 Star Rvs
Anyone see this game?
Wembley were 2-1 up at half time, and deservedly so, Star levelled 15mins into the 2nd half and started to dominate the game.

At 2-2 and with 10mins to go Wembley full back played a back pass to their keeper who let it slip under his foot and over the goal line (by at least a foot) and their keeper eventually got back and scooped the ball from behind the line, but everybody else had stopped play expecting a goal to be given, but it wasn't, Wembley went on to score the winner in injury time.

Spoke to a Balla player and supporter (who were behind the Wembley goals) and they confirmed what we all saw, 2 Wembley supporters also confirmed it, along with Wembley keeper after the game.

Wembely centre half also handled the ball for a peno with 2mins to go which also wasnt given.

Ref's response was "I couldn't give either".

Ah well, we'll plug away anyway.

how could you give that penalty. his hand was down by his side. he couldn't move it. its not like he stuck his hand out to play the ball, it was more ball to hand.

however i agree with the back pass goal. jesus id say it was more than a foot over the line. he did get yere just rewards a few minutes later but i know thats not the point. was a clear goal and should have being given. by the way it was at 2-1 when the backpass was made. about the peno though i would never have given it and it would have being very harsh even if we had got 1 like that.

Ive seen peno's given for less, and I'd say so have you.
I think a draw would have been the fairest result yesterday, but that doesn't always happen in football.

ya ye definately deserved a draw. in fairness ive seen them given for less but still would have being very harsh. although ye should also have had yere centre forward sent off. i think ye were calling him bisto or something like that. but definately ye deserved at least a point from that game.

I agree, Jason Sheehan is a good player.

Replying to this..If you happened to read the other junior threads you'd have noted my post in the "FAI Junior Cup 2007/2008" Posted on the Old 24/09/2007, 7:54 PM ,Basically a week ago..

Thats to answer the first half of your post...And then if you had been there or even bothered to pick up the local tonight you'd have read that the game was very tight,with pike taking an early lead,going in at half time 1-1 and only losing to a bad penalty decision from the ref with 10 minutes to go...And considering Avondale have one the Intermediate Fai cup the last 2 years,taking them that close for a junior side isn't half bad..

how did the keeper keep it out ? de he slide and kick it or did he dive and handle it?
If it was the later then he should have been sent off and a peno if he handled it. Deliberate handball to prevent a scoring chance.
