Can I go?
How about do the youth cert and go on this....and go on the piss
Perfect
Just checked my dates. I'll be at the ddsl winners ball next June. You work away mate.
Bring us back a stick of rock!
Not by the look of the league table you won't : 0
Hear what he's saying about your coaching Hoppo!
Dont give anything out for been top in November! Hope you didn't tell them poor kids they won something?
Ive printed this comment off , i will make you up a t-shirt saintly and you can sit with Alan and i in June, we will buy you a pint or two and maybe some humble pie
my apologys hoppo that comment was fully intended to insult alan and not you. Your alright
Ah jesus insulting alan is a favourite past time of mine , i take back my previous comment completely ! lol
Anyone seen, heard anything about these ilites and igoals. Think gavin whelan is involved in them. They look a decent idea

Yep - it's Gavin Whelan's company - he's a good few LSL clubs signed up according to himself on twitter
I've found portable lighting is not the issue with us. (building site floodlights are cheap and powerful). It's powering them thats the issue. anywhere near houses is not an option with noisy gennies and plugging them in is equally as awkward.
I used to know it all, Now I'm going to school.
This thing is battery operated though. You charge it up after use and its ready to go for the next time. All fits into a little bag when deflated. They have a website where it shows you in detail
Igoals are pretty impressive i have to admit
How much re they in the region of?
I think the lights are 499 per light. Don't know about the goals. Think the goals are the business myself.

199 for a goal.
A team could have a fundraising night and be sorted for winter training.... Really good ideas
How on earth are the goals sturdy? (I watched him boot the ball at it in the video)
One thing ive noticed when it comes to coaching is its always better to make up your own drills , often the drills etc you get from the FAI and these rip-off coaching courses (Barca ? to get handed drills !) are no better than what a good coach can think up.
In fact id say its a sign of a good coach if he can make up a drill to suit his team
spot on hoppo,too many coaches stick to the coaching manuals like its a fuking bible that guarantees success.
Yeah agree hoppo. Or even use the drills they give you and tweak them a little bit. if I notice an issue in a match that needs working on I'll always come up with something myself to try and work on it. Although there's no harm in having a standard manual drill as backup for when it goes tits up lol.
ya can put more life in to it. especially with juveniles who get bored. and then start to pick on me haha ...
Coerver doing a coaching course in dublin shortly. Not often they put these on as they are strict on who gets the franchise so id say it would be worth going to. Will post up dates when I get them
Big fan of the coerver stuff. Very good for letting them express themselves. Just a word of caution tho, if anyone is going to these yokes don't just go to get a few drills and funtions, make sure you understand WHY they are doing them and the techinque involved. Too many people go to these yokes and scribble down the notes on the function and never ask what the key coaching points are. As hoppo and the lads said earlier if you understand the key factors it's more fun to make up your own stuff.

Pats u11 are playing in the semi of the cup April 2nd. Hope they are hammered!
I used to know it all, Now I'm going to school.
Got lifted out of it over this post tonight lol. I should really have added they are playing Me and hoppo's U11 Bosco team in the game. Should be a stoater! Played them pre-season and it was a cracking game.
I used to know it all, Now I'm going to school.
Have you seen this Al?

Get your 11 year old little brains working
And Brian Kerr is in tears.
Yeah we were only discussing Max Planck's 1906 theory with our wingers the other night.
Centre halfs are dumb fucks, some of ours are still stuck on Einstein.

The pats bosco semi is this saturday on bunting rd at 12:30. Most of my lads are family stand members so my team talk will consist of telling them the pats team are all jnr SEI!
Go Team Bosco!
Show them pictures of brads and warn them that losing will turn them into that.
handy win should ensue.
Bosco won the semi 5-1.
Only posted it up to thank jerry from pats. Made us feel very welcome and played the game in a great spirit. He was very gracious at the end and is a credit to the schoolboy section. Top man.
