I dont know were you got this from mate, I thought the rumours on the street were that no one wanted to play for us ;D  I hope to announce shortly wither anyone is signing for us or not or wither Paul Quigley and myself will have to pull on the boots ;D |

Stevie Nicholl from Casletown is one I've heard has definitely signed.
Came from the lad himself. Can't understand why he'd want to take a step down from the league champions.
I also heard he'd signed for Ballyclare Comrades. Again can't understand that one either - he's not good enough to play at that level.

not sure if steve has signed or not heard it in the rumour mill but, as for the ballyclare thing i'd speak to him quite alot, especially bout football but he's never mentioned going to ballyclare.

Don't think Stevie was enjoying not playing regular football each week as one week he would start and the next he was a sub. The lad just wants to play every week  |

Not playing every week - didn't stop him lifting his trophies at the Castletown end of season dinner - and then making a quick exit.
The Ballyclare thing came directly from Stevie to some of the Castletown players at the club dinner.

Whats lifting trophies got to do with him playing for another club?? He scored 24 goals last season, was an important player and got on great with every player so he had as much right to have a winners medal as everyone else. He just got abit pissed off with not playing as much in the second half of the season. It was hardly a quick exit also as he spoke to a few of the players about leaving and waited til after the club's football dinner.
Regarding the ballyclare story, i agree with you winona as i heard stevie mention before about going up to train with them pre-season, however, i dont know if he had intentions of signing.

Agree with you re scoring 24 goals he did make a contribution to their successful season and deserved his medals. I'm lead to believe the medal presentation was held after the meal was served and he did speak to a few players about leaving - all after he'd collected his medals. I've checked my facts again and he did make a quick exit - he left about 10.30pm I'm told.
Again what I'm lead to believe is that there are a few people at Castletown who aren't to happy about Stevie telling porkies about his reason for not signing - going to play at a higher level - according to my sources at Ballyclare - they've never heard of him.
IMO it's always better to tell the truth - lies have a way of coming back to haunt you.
If he doesn't want to play for Castletown they're better off without him.
Good luck to him at RSB, he'll need it playing for someone like Quigley, who doesn't have a clue about football.

Be careful what you say about Quigley ,it might come back to haunt you, and what would you do then |

Post by winona2006 on Jul 9, 2006 21:05:38 GMT
There's nothing Quigley could do that would ever haunt me and he knows it.
Nothing to fear from his football record to date either -
Abbeyview - won nothing
Enkalon 2nds - won nothing - didn't he get the sack?
Casteltown - broke up a team that had just won the 1st division -put them in the relegation mire and got the sack
Crumlin Rec - got sacked - team relegated
RSB - so far, won nothing, due to continue for the forseeable future

Where has this sad dislike for Paul Quigley come from winona? Maybe verging on an obsession at this point?

Back to the topic of conversation..........any more signings lined up lads for the beginning of the season?? How many new faces would you like to see regarding a good title challenge like last season?? We will be announcing soon our new seasons signings mate ,we are hoping to bring in about four or five new players as the squad last year was to small we felt . |

Anything's an improvement on relegation and the sack. As for my identity - you have me intrigued - let us all know so we can have a good laugh at you and your sidekick. The only local team I can think of that no longer exists is FC Enkalon - isn't that one of Quigley's ex disasters. I dare you Alex to say who you think I am. That is unless you're like your sidekick - chicken. |

how is alex a chicken when you are the one who wont let anyone know who you are.
i wouldnt call enkalon quiggs disaster consdering he had left long before they folded so i would get my facts right if i were you.

the caastletown team was already broke up before he got there so he had to do his best to rebuild it and im sure he gained a bit more of respect than you have for giving it a shot. in my eyes the only way you will gain respect is by letting people no who you are which is something that quiggs has never hid.

I think you should get you're facts right Alan. Castletown had just won the 1st Division with Beckett as manager - the majority of the team had resigned when Quigley took over - he alienated so many players that they left in their droves - the players he brought in weren't good enough and he was sacked when Castletown were in bottom position with about 1 point I think. Thanks for reminding me about the other local teams who have folded over the years - Alex says he knows who I am - he can solve the mystery - name me on the forum. |

Just like winona knows why stevie nichol claimed to be leaving castletown for a higher league club....load of s**t!!! A couple of players said themselves stevie was treated wrongly last season when the likes of deeks starts a cup final with only having played 3 games all season and then coming off after only 20mins of the game. Im not at all slating castletown one bit here because they were head and shoulders above the rest last season, 3 trophies says it all but being a good mate of stevies he never once claimed to be leaving for ballyclare but train. He knows himself he's not ready for a step up like that but wheres the harm in training with them. Lavo said himself he understands why stevie left and that says it all really. The only person with resentment with him leaving seems to be you winona know one else...move on lad, everyone else has |

Post by alex on Jul 11, 2006 8:00:47 GMT
As everyone has stated Winona ,no one from our great wee club has any interest in slating anyone ,as we have respect for what clubs are trying or in the case of Castletown what they have achieved ,and you should do the same ,I have no interest in what Paul has or has not done in the past ,all I know is he has always had a great love for football and is doing a fantastic job for us and has the respect of everyone at our great wee club , as for Stevie he would not have left a great club like Castletown and in what they have achieved unless he had his reasons ,so he should not be slated for it, as for saying our great wee club will win nothing ,you may well be right ,but it will not be for the want of trying on our part ,and when I announce who we have signed you may be surprised at the quality of players our great wee club has attracted.

I don't know if the players signed just after the previous season finished but they certainly didn't come down to any training that I was at. As for the 1 point....it was gained against the Sky Blues funnily enough!! ;D Also I don't recall him managing Abbeyview and RSB for full seasons. Last but not least, the Crumlin Rec quote about being relegated, the team finished mid table but how the hell you can get relegated for 2C beats the sh1t out of me.....Wionna, are you exaggerating the truth a little there |

Don't be silly, it's not an obsession, it's my life's work Pretty fulfilling life obviously! So where is this dislike of Quiggs coming from then? Have you ever been to any of training sessions or is this all 3rd party hear-say your spouting? Maybe he didn't pick you at some stage in your glorious career? |

I have nothing against Stevie Nicholl other than he has told lies to people who had a lot of time for him. He clearly stated that he was moving on to a higer level club and if it didn't work out he would come back to Castletown. He could have resigned for Castletown and still went to Ballyclare but he refused. That action alone indicates he wasn't being truthful with those at Castletown. If he wanted to sign for another BSML club ( RSB ) he should have been truthful about it. IMO the Ballyclare thing was a red herring.
Oh and by the way - Stevie Nicholl has signed for RSB - he confirmed this to his workmates.
I almost forgot - I'm still waiting in eager anticipation for Alex to name me publicly on this forum. Alex wouldn't bull***t would he - maybe he's bull***ting about the new signing as well.

I've had the displeasure of witnessing a few of his so called "training sessions" and what a shambles they were - no organisation - no purpose - no method to any of the session. He couldn't run a bath never mind run a training session. As for him not picking me - he's never had a sniff of playing at the level I played at never mind managing at that level, or picking a team or taking a training session. He wouldn't even have been allowed to carry the water bottles. Has he ever played the game - I doubt it. |
