i think you have made a very valid point. tight communities will produce better teams. if a bunch of lads socialise in different circles their chemistry on the pitch will suffer. most people would rather play alongside their best friends who they no well than a lad they see once a week at training

I would say if they are only seeing fellas once a week at training then the problem is not camaraderie at all... its commitment. 


Long gone are the days when training once a week is sufficient.

[dodgy umpire]

bearing in mind you would have a match another night of the week. sufficient for 15-18 year olds?

[off the laces]

Any chance of a few scores from tonights games?

I still believe it should never have been fixtured to play a day after a championship game.

Would have loved to have given you a result from st pauls v saul only the co. board decided to call the match off but forget to tell saul, so we had 22 players and a handful off supporters standing outside the gates off Palace Sorry i mean st pauls waiting to get in making phone calls to all to see if it was still on and as the fixtures sec was on holiday no one was around to tell us, it was left to saul to contact the referees sec to find out the game was off.
As a supporter i would like to know who re-embeirses my fuel allowance do i need to send for the GPA, CO Board once again a JOKE!!!
Rant over.

firstly, would you like to edit that comment with regards to the Palace!! you may have travelled up for no reason, but no need to include that reference in your rant!!

secondly, we got an email last friday confirming the game was off, so either your club didn't get it, or some one in the club is trying to pull a fast one so you can pick up some much needed points!!

Well lets call it as it is
1: We where up at St Pauls with a panel of players looking to play a match they all believed should not be played any way therefore DO YOU think WE got the E-MAIL to say it was OFF,
2 How can we be awarded points if there is no referee there.

And no i would not want to edit my comment, if someone asks how to get to St Pauls you tell them to travel out the A2 heading for Bangor then follow the signs for the PALACE BARRACKS its past them on the left.Is that not right st pauls

1: obviously you didn't get the email, but i wonder why we were sent it and your club weren't!!
2: now you see, you never mentioned there was no referee there.

though it just shows what kind of person you are when you try to associate us with the Brits up the road. when i give directions, i tell them to take the turn for Holywood after the slip road for Ikea, not Palace!! your directions are right, but there was no need for the snide 'standing outside the gates off Palace Sorry i mean st pauls' remark, makes you look petty!!

[/b]i truely am sorry

Off the Laces, i feel your pain. Funny enough a remarkably similar thing happened to me earlier in the year, showed up at a ground (ref there as well) but no sign of the home team. Several phone calls later it was established the home team wouldn't be bothering their holes showing up. Still waiting on my petrol money. Guess where that was?

Anyhoo ye and st pauls are both wrong with your directions, here's what I tell people.

1 Hit Knock dual carriageway and head east
2 pass ruc/ss/psni headquarters on left (check for anybody with a st pauls bag looking a lift)
3 pass garnerville training college on right (see above re lifts)
4 turn right at unionist party HQ (ditto)
5 continue on past palace barracks (fcuk them they can walk from there)
6 turn right at the war memorial
7 turn right again at t junction (under no circumstances ask for directions)
8 arrive at destination (changing room will have fresh paint or sectarian grafitti depending on the time of year)
9 mock and belittle your fellow gaels, sure they have it handy up there.

Good man passedit, I wondered how long it would be before you rose to "off the laces" and his we jibes about the location of St Pauls. If you ever have any joy on that mileage claim give me a shout and I'll look about mine as well.

too late!! 

anyhow, i do understand where you are coming from OTL, it was a big f#*k up on the part of the CB in fixing the game for last night after we only played on Sunday, and I can understand your frustration after travelling up for no reason, but there is nothing we could do about that!!

[Lecale2]

I didn't know that game was being played Whitehair. With the Championship finals coming up both teams need the games. Anything to report?

[Whitehair]

Eh we lost two key players who had to go off with leg injuries, one of which is away to hospital(fingers crossed). 50 min match and a decent runout for both teams, they only led by 2 with a few minutes remaining. A few from Hilltown were in attendance, which surprises me after hearing the whispers that are coming out of their camp, we got the impression they thought they'd the game won already!

St Pauls my gripe has never been with you our St Pauls its with the CB and their inefficent running off the leagues this year. To hear someone is getting an amount off Euros to sit on his backside in castlewellan and asume someone else will do the work really gets my goat up. Once again not you or your club the County Board.
I Call for a MAJOR shakeup.
