[CCFC1924]

Blah, bad start from our B lads. Pity, here's hoping we can pick up some points quick. Maybe a nice home draw and a nice win in a Divisional Cup game would give us a bit of confidence! Ballyglass a good side though. Always up against it yesterday

Best of luck to all the Mayo representatives in the Connacht Cups and Shields finals this weekend in Athlone.

[Thunderblaster]

I heard that Westport United Juniors were looking to get the match against Ballina Town called off or brought forward so that the junior players could travel to Athlone to support the U.16s in the Connacht Cup final but, seemingly, Ballina couldn't accomodate the club on such a request.

Thats an unfair comment to make. Ballina town dont make these decisions.

Is one of the muppets running the mayo league website! Its beyond even a joke at this stage.

It is crazy at this stage that we do not know fixtures. The website used to have next weeks fixtures and recent results along with up to date tables but there is nothing on it this year.

what's the offical bible to get the fixtures from is it the web site local paper or email

[jim_bob]

proton from what i heard at the agm when they announced this great website. the website was the official bible for fixtures along with an email(correct me if im wrong) but supposedly the website was the holy grail for fixtures. fair enough they did manage some of it last year but this year is a joke unless you are a member of the brian mchale fan club!!!!

The website was fine with fixtures and results last year but nothing on it this year. I heard on good authority that the person that did some of the stuff last year was not going to do it anymore.

Dont know but i will try and find out at the weekend

[Footy Mad]

I see the League website has now been updated, fixtures, results, tables, yellow and red cards are all available now. Looks good now and all the information on each Division is now available.

[FahyForever]

Can anyone tell me why The Mayo League have decided that the Castlebar Celtic V Snugboro Connaught Gold Cup match next week deserves three officials, while every other single match has to make do with one? They could at least make an effort to hide their preferential treatment of Celtic.

[FahyForever]

Also, I cant access any of that updated stuff on the mayo league website.. It's still last year's info as far as I can see.....

[Round Tower]

When you go in click on season, it will show 2011,2010,2009 click on the 2011 link and all the 2011 fixtures,goal scorers,red and yellow cards wil come up.

[CCFC1924]

Are you having a laugh?! How in the name of God is that preferential? You think we'd prefer paying for 3 officials rather than one?

Celtic getting preferencial treatment from the Mayo League. I've heard it all now

Yeah. all the information is on it now but why cant they put it on the front page also like they had last year where you could see all the fixtures and results for all the divisions together.

Come off it everyone knows ye get preferential treatment, even the 'B' side got promoted 2 division's this year... disgracefull and even more distastefull that anyone in your club would deny it .......

i think the mayo league are just covering themselves just in case theres trouble, as over the years there has been trouble at these games(games getting abandonedpeople getting knocked out,etc,etc). but over the last few matches there hasnt been any flare up so long may that they continue. but just incase there is trouble its better to have 3 officials than 1.
if it was in snugboro there would be 3 as well.

[CCFC1924]

Come off it everyone knows ye get preferential treatment, even the 'B' side got promoted 2 division's this year... disgracefull and even more distastefull that anyone in your club would deny it .......


Well if that's the case, everyone knows very little. Our B side don't want to be in the divison their in because we're out of our depth. Looking at a third year in a row getting relegated.

I can't see where this treatment is. Apart from our B team playing above their level and having to dish out more cash for officials

[Closing Time]

You are so right. What were we thinking in Celtic all these years that the Mayo League didn’t love us? Thanks for clearing that up and I will spread the word according to ‘Peoples Republic of fishing hooks’. I think CCFC has answered the fahy question.

Surly your Club could have declined promoted if it is such a burden, im sure i can say with total confidence that several teams would have loved to filled the vacent slot..... sorry dont buy that **** and bull that they would prefer to play in division 2 as opposed th the premier B, where not only are they not capable of playing but more to the point dont deserve to be there. Maybe you can clarify why they were favoured over at least 8 other teams (all division 1) ?????

Beaten again today.

From what I heard, a lot of clubs didn't take the compulsory Senior Intro course before the season started.

Holy Jesus lads, the Mayo League are a lot of things... But Celtic lovers? You couldn't be further from the truth

[etoo]

the mayo league are a farce. and until they get rid of there current chairman they will continue to be a farce.
how is it celtic b's fault that they got promoted from what was a a stupid ruling of an 8 team league brought about by a chairman who hasnt a clue and only looks after himself.

Once again you are so right. What were we at in Celtic we should have also requested the Mayo League to put the returning A Championship side in the bottom division and keep last year’s Super League Squad together? Are you for real your problem should be with the Mayo League not Celtic B. No problem with your anti Celtic rants as long as it’s a problem we caused. This is a Mayo League issue with their stupid 8 team leagues.

Some times the League feels that because of the close nature between the two clubs, with ie local rivery it needs three officials

[renovater]

I see the League website has now been updated, fixtures, results, tables, yellow and red cards are all available now. Looks good now and all the information on each Division is now available.

I see proton has stir it up

Good man Bestie
I say u will be flying the flag of city saturday

[Proton]

Bad habbits die hard. Ballyheane seem to be up to there old tricks, the local paper shows they were deducted 3pts for failing to register a player, Sounds sad

[Sheep Farmer]

so why pick them out of a hat and promote them up 2 division's. was one of the reasons flying about that they were too good for the division they were in i.e division 2 ???

[CCFC]

Jesus christ there are some right spiteful haters on here. So, I'd like to address some of them. First point thats been sickening my eyes is the 3 refs at the Celtic Snugboro game. Oh its 'cos everybody loves Celtic blah blah blah. Maybe its because last season Snugboro had at least 3 players sent off against Celtic. Maybe its because the year before they caused serious injuries to 2 Celtic players. Maybe its because its a local derby that over the last few years the rivalry has gone over board with red cards, violence and serious injuries coming to the fore ahead of football. End of. Its not favoritism or a love in between the Mayo League and Celtic/Snugboro. Its to stop people being hurt. Thats the sad truth of it. Secondly, the B team situation is fairly obvious to me. I'd imagine Celtic envisaged the B team to comprise of a lot of the players that kept them in the Super League for 2 seasons, finishing 5th last season. I know this won't go down well with the whingers out there but it would have been unfair to 'reward' those players with relegation down 3 divisions. As it turned out a lot of those players decided to call it a day or ply there trade elsewhere. C'est la vie. So quit complaining and concentrate on getting your own teams into the leagues they belong, don't spend your time begrudging a team that gets beaten every week. If ye keep up that I will start to lose faith in the sport. Peace out.

[jim_bob]

what game did ballyheane play the unregistered player?

[Closing Time]

Why not asked the Mayo League. Celtic did not request to be put into this division. End of story.

[rava]

Only two clubs in the league get shown blatant bias and Celtic most definitely is not one of them.

[swinfordfc]

what game did ballyheane play the unregistered player?

The game was Ballyheane B v Swinford B ....... it now goes down as a 3-0 win to Swinford (game actually finished 3-2)

[Round Tower]

The game was Ballyheane B v Swinford B ....... it now goes down as a 3-0 win to Swinford (game actually finished 3-2)

Why was Ballyheane deducted 3 points and Charlestown 4 points, is it Charlestown drew the game, and Ballyheane B lost the game.

[renovater]

was it 3-2 swinford, then awarded 3-0
here the fine was stiff, they will check with the reg in future €300 nice pickings

[Sheep Farmer]

Did ballyheane come forward with this mistake or was it detected by the alert mayo fai officials. Charlestown got screwed becuause of a deep hatred by one or possibly two members on the mayo board who use their so called powers to settle personal scores. !!

think you have covered it well, just add the league make the decision to have 3 referees in the interest of the players, regardless who playing.More so if there is local rivalry which you all ready stated.
So those who have issues with what Division Celtic B play in is a matter for the Mayo League not Celtic, they only play where the league see them fit to play in.
At the end of the day The power rest with them, The Mayo League, as for the rest of you get on with it.
We as in me won't bring the Lords name into it.

you seem to be implying that its all snugboros fault that theres 3 officials. Celtic are no saints in this fixture as well. and if you were at last years match were the 3 were sent off, that was just the ref having a really bad day. 2 were sent off for abusive language to the ref and the other fella got 2 yellow cards. dont think there was a bad tackle in that game or the game in celtic park that season (where ye finished with 10 men for abusive language to the linesman, well i think it was abusive, i couldnt understand what was said so dont know how the linesman did :rolleyes:).
but there should be 3 officials assigned to this game because of the trouble in the past, but i do think it is in the past as the rivalry isnt as fierce as before.

At this stage every player and offical should know that you can't say a word or question a referee at any level junior or youths.a yellow for question a decision and a red for a abuse or lanuage to the referee. I know a match a couple of weeks ago the opposition was not taking frees or throw-ins from tthe right position and when we complained the ref. he threationed to abandon the match. Also i heard a situation in the Super league where a ref. threationed a person who had gone on to the pitch to treat a player with a yellow card if he looked at him again.Its gone from one extreem to another it depends on the ref.

[swinfordfc]

Why was Ballyheane deducted 3 points and Charlestown 4 points, is it Charlestown drew the game, and Ballyheane B lost the game.

yes - thats correct

Correct .... no nothing about the fine

[renovater]

Correct .... no nothing about the fine
Well all I can say is that;s what I was told

[CCFC]

I'm not implying anything really I'm just saying that Celtic now have 2 lads of the shelf purely because of Snugboro challenges. It could be any other team, thats just life I guess. Thats football. But it was v.s Snugboro, and it was 2 serious injuries. You can't hide it behind me just having a thing against Snugboro. I have no problem accepting Celtic have contributed to the troubles but, to my knowledge, no Snugboro players have ended up requiring surgery and months of rehab because of a Celtic 'challenge'. Sadly the same cant be said in the opposite direction

[Round Tower]

Correct .... no nothing about the fine

The clubs are probably lucky that its only a fine and point reduction, if any of the players got seriously injured more than likely they would not be insured if they were not registered.

Correct Round Tower, those clubs can thank them selves lucky!!
Well done who had noted that the players were not registered, That is why its important, that referee's cards are returned.
Its the responsibility of team managers to get there act together, rather than look to blame others.
