A decent footballer, would make most senior teams, but is not the superstar that many see him to be.  Poor Bowl is afflicted with the paternal problem of unfulfilled dreams!

Just give him a chance this season to show what a kind of footballer he is, and if he isn't a superstar he wouldn't be the only young player to be given that reputation and fail to make it.

Is granemore playing the nab this weekend???

 Mid-board Cup Semi - Harps v Ballyhegan is in Sherry's Field Sunday 12.30pm.  

Nippy broke a bone in his elbow in last week's game v MAdden, out for a while.

twotwo, management had to be changed because last year's management wouldnt take it again, well you know that too!
he must be 22 or 23 now? and yes that was his da on the documentary, with the cursing.   
hes a very talented player though probably a little small for county, talent alone doesnt make you a superstar though, you have to have the right attitude to go with it. 
Which one of you bitches wants to dance?

Was that not the minor management? Conlon's da would've been over the U-16s.

If that was his da - and i think he was coaching him at the time - then its not hard to se why there'd be a bit lacking

charlie stubbs

His da wasn't coaching him at the time, fergal reel (if memory serves) was coaching him in the minors at the time, they went to the final and Ciaran missed it due to his injury.  Fergal Reel is the same man he wouldnt play for for the last two years. 

Ciaran's da, Pat, was coaching the under 16s during the documentary and became famous for all the cursing, roaring and shouting.  :D (didnt see much wrong with it really myself but there was talk about it at the time - from outside the club)

A grown man swearing aggressively at children, for who he has a duty of care towards, is child abuse and you think theres nothing wrong with it.

If that was the case I'd agree with you but he wasn't swearing at them, he'd get carried away and start swearing and yes he could have left it out but it wasn't the lads he was verbally abusing, he wasnt bullying or picking on individuals or anything like that. From what I remember they thought a lot of him.
