I just believe that this has raised the "standard" of the game as being athletic, competitive and disciplined defending are also admirable skills of the game and as you say it allows the real top quality to shine through as the naturally gifted players (who are also able to compete physically) can still get great scores against these new defensive systems.

Can we possibly have a discussion on football and the current matches. This standard talk is getting way out of hand. Anyone any inputs on the games at the weekend? Please can we get back to talking about real matters. Maybe a few reports, critical analysis, insights etc... republican (Sligo) - Posts: 272 - 30/04/2013 09:46:31 1376184 Link 0 |
Final post on this from me anyway. The following players have left their clubs this year through emigration and transfer: Brendan Egan, Colin Neary, Kenneth Sweeney, Alan Costello, David Maye to name only 5. Many more have gone but these lads would have been standout players for their clubs. This will considerably weaken their club teams this year and further decrease the standard of the Sligo Championship. Many more have gone before them in the last number of years O'Grady, Philips from Harps. Now are you telling me Commentator that despite this loss of players from clubs that the standard is still better than 10 years ago when the economy was stable and players didn't have to go abroad in droves for work.

Maybe it was because the Maestro that is Mickey Kerins was celebrating his birthday and the team were overwhelmed that their most recognisable son had reached his 70th birthday but if St Pats are to survive in the upper tranches of the Senior league they need to get their act together and fast. They were ruthlessly exposed by an Eastern Harps outfit that swatted them aside with minimum fuss. They scoreline at half time in Keash with its superb electronic scoreboard showed the home team leading by 4 pts to 1 in as drab a first half as the scoreline suggested. townbuck (Leitrim) - Posts: 197 - 30/04/2013 15:23:26 1376464 Link 0 |
Now rupp there is my report. Its a short report cos it was a dreadful game and only for the biting wind I would have nodded off to sleep. No point in writing a big report about nothing. We will struggle to stay up. I notice no one else did a report townbuck (Leitrim) - Posts: 197 - 30/04/2013 15:26:26 1376467 Link 0 |
