whats that supposed 2 mean special 1 are you thrying to imply that 1 side here will cause trouble and the match will have 2 be abandoned....bridge b arent a dirty team but they are physical and wont suffer shapers who want to throw their weight around or talk sh1t....only 1 match in 3 years has been abandoned off with bridge celtic b and both teams were as guilty as each other....obviously you havent seen bridge b ths year as they are a much changed side with a lot of young talent aged between 16 & 21.....

There's always the return leg....
And hopefully Newmarket can get going when they're back to full strength.
Missing quite a few regulars at the weekend, and the few that were there were played out of position...

seems like the clare league are trying to make a point of punishing players as much as possible because of what happens to referees. the player in question has told me he was registered, so seems like a harsh punishment... in saying that i do not know exactly what happenend.... and the special 1 the ref was not grabbed by the throat... i think ur listening to that grapevine a little too much

You should have seen the team Newmarket fielded....nothing short of a joke...
But, sure, all credit to Newtown, they can only play against what's put in front of them

have to agree with hacker ,this kind of abuse of refs in general has to stop.is it any wonder that there is very few new refs coming on board every season?getting out of bed on a sunday morning to put up with that crap!!personally i have respect for these lads,sure they make mistakes,we're all human,sometimes you just have to bite the lip when a decision goes against you....

AFAIK Donegal have a Senior League so that would be a higher standard that the Junior League. I fancy Newtown to go into last 32.

Hopefully big crowd aswell. Frosty will get the singing started and maybe play a few notes on the spoons.

Also a few cans of bulmers flying around and that special "welcome to hell" sign,goodluck to newtown,they have a stronger team now than they have had in last couple of years and home advantage like you said with frosty.

**shelbourne1904** · 29/11/2007, 1:35 PM

Should be another great day in "HELL" but one of the players has an injury after Frosty discovered he could play the spoons better on his shoulder. and proceeded to perform 12 different(all sounded the same to me) compositions.
He must be some man with a bowl of cornflakes!!!

Next game at home 2 weeks before Christmas, Surely he'll play Composition Number#4 "Frosty The Snow Man" from his Christmas Greatest hits Album

For anyone that wants to make their way down to Ballycasey on the 15th-12/07 @ 2.00pm, your sure to witness a trully great show, It might not be Great Football but Frosty is the Business.

thats what he told me.. he was registered. the incident with the ref... no i ws not there. again i am going on a direct report from the player. All the same i fully agree with the suspension. You cannot lay a hand on the ref and im sure the player regrets it.
