Not sure if that result change is included but the rest is up to date timberlegs, this is the table that's on this weeks Munster express online. Ferrybank are also playing Tramore sat night at 7.

2-2 it finished.
Once again a decision by the linesman to give Crystal a penalty when even ref saw nothing, ruined this game. Although I'm sure the home side were not complaining. In saying that Carrick had chances to win it and will consider themselves hard done by.

In fairness it was a poor decision by the linesman - they just can't help themselves sometimes. The match itself was ruined by the wind which seemed to get stronger in the 2nd half to Crystal's advantage. That said I thought a fairly average Crystal side (their young striker did well - missed Quilty though) held their own against Carrick who don't look great without their missing players. Will Thomas Fitz play again this season - Wayne came on for last few minutes and Alan Ryan unused sub so those 2 you'd imagine are fit enough. I'd reckon they need to improve tho if they want to win the big ones this year.

Thomas Fitz probably wont play agin this year due to a serouis knee injury, Wayne Fitz and Glenn Keane made their combacks from injury yesterday and jj Butler return after a little hiatus, its looking positive on a squad front, the game was decent yesterday for the conditions that were there, carrick really could have it won handy if it wasnt for a combiniation of poor finishing and good goalkeeping, the penalty was a joke of a decision the Crystal player actually admitted that Adrian Walsh never touched him, the linesman seemed to be new to the league and was very vocal towards players and managers alike

It's fine to say he's new to the league etc., but his call cost Carrick two points. A strong referee could have overruled him, if he wanted to of course.
On the positive side Carrick should have won but the two points dropped leaves Tramore back into contention.

**cufc champions** · 07/02/2011, 8:06 PM

draw, Glass, dungarvan and hibs and of course Carrick!

The ref could only over rule him if he was sure it wasn't a penalty, Jimmy McGrath obviously thought it wasn't it was a penalty but if the linesman is firm in his belief it puts the ref in a bad predicament, ref's decisions aside carrick should have won the game anyway, twas their first game in a long while and it was a great way to blow the cobwebs off to get ready for sunday coming!

**Timberlegs** · 09/02/2011, 5:51 PM

The 3 premier games meant to be on Sunday are postponed - due to lack of officials to do the games.

Do you know the reason why there isn't enough officals? Surely the junior legue would not put out a fixture list if the didnt think thta they had enough men to take charge of the games.
I hope its not another dispute like we had over the last few years

**Timberlegs** · 10/02/2011, 11:31 AM

As far as Im aware CUFC is that some Refs are attending a seminar in Dublin on Sunday and then 3 are involved in a game at the RSC Sunday. Apparently not enough grade 1 offficials then left to do any of the premier games fixed for sun morn . U would think though that the refs and theb league would have known about this seminar before Tuesday when clubs were notified the games were off- bit Irish if u asked me.They surely got more notice about a seminar than a few days. Also questions the debate for the need for the 3 officials. Yes its great to have linesmaen at premier games as it (probably)improves standard , but if teams cant get a fixture when u dont have enough officials, seems ridiculous !! and this doesnt even go into the extra expense.

**cufc champions** · 10/02/2011, 12:13 PM

thats poor form in fairness, why 3 junior officals have being pulled to ref a munster senior cup game in the rsc is beyond me! the vast majority of premier games could be done with 1 offical this dated back to 2 seasons ago when a ref was accosted at half time in the Waterford Crystal Carrick match by a Crystal offical and called off the game there and then

Hopefully the seminar is one where those attending might look at where standards can be improved. If so, it would be a positive step.
We live in hope!!

That seminar could go for a while so sunday week's fixtures could be in doubt

**Timberlegs** · 13/02/2011, 9:12 AM

Met Howard Webb at Manchester airport last night heading for Dublin -was actually going over to the Ref seminar to do a talk - as a United fan Im sure Howard can only improve the lads -haha !!

Premier Result
Villa 1 - 2 Bohs

**Slumdog** · 14/02/2011, 4:02 PM

cheers lads

**irisheagle** · 14/02/2011, 9:42 PM

Another lino mistake cost Waterford yesterday by all accounts. Man City just bid 3000000 billion for Howard Webb, but United said he is going no where !!!
