[The Bit O'Red]

Manor Rangers v. Calry Bohs today, 0-0.....disappointing.

[red metal]

feo will be a happy man with that result.Is that Calry safe now.Its looking good for 6 in a row now for Abbey

[feo123]

would you believe i dont think we're safe yet, mathemtaically anyway, realistically we are ;)

[red metal]

Did us a big favour anyway

[The Bit O'Red]

Any other results today?

[feo123]

boyle 2-2 with yeats

gurteen 3-0 cartron in premier league

[red metal]

Boyle always seem to fade away after christmas.

[feo123]

will the cups be starting in may/june? will be ages until we play again if so

[The Bit O'Red]

Abbey lost to Cardbury today, league wide open again.

We got what we deserved today nothing.

just looking at the table there. yeats united need any draw at manor and arrow harps (at home) need to beat manor by 2 to send calry into relegation play-off ? unlikely but not unrealistic!

[feo123]

i cant see arrow haros beating manor by 3 goals or more

[jim22]

Carly should be ok, cant c arrow harps getting any result against manor which will leave them in the 3rd place playoff , yeats should be safe as well

[neutrino]

i cant see arrow haros beating manor by 3 goals or more

ya i'd say ur right feo - altho do arrow harps not need a 2 goal margin. how and ever, surely wont happen.

i thought it was 3, even if its 2 i still cant see it happening. although footballs weird.

Abbey Utd 6 Boyle Celtic 0 Garth Kelly got 5 keith Carty got the other 1

[feo123]

great win for ye i reckon ye have the league sewn up now! kelly must have been on fire

[red metal]

Garth had a good game all right.Gary Rooney ran the show for us yesterday probably the best game he,s had in a few years.But on nsaying that Boyle were very poor!

[DonalE]

How many goals did Keith Carty score for Abbey in the season before he joined Rovers? I have 50 in my head but not sure if thats correct. And how many were league goals?

was he not with monaghan, then dundalk, then rovers? or did he come back to abbey after dundalk and mons?

[DonalE]

I'm not sure, thought it was Abbey - Rovers - Monaghan - Dundalk - Abbey

other way round by the looks of this

[red metal]

Not to far off Donal 56 in all competion think he got 33 in the league.He went to Dundalk .Think he got 8 in his first season with Dundalk.Il ask him and let you know for sure.He has hit a bit of form of late for us Abbey 4 in 4 games now 3 of them coming from midfield and 1 as a striker.Great header of the ball for the little size of him.Top man aswell

[feo123]

suprised how ye get by with such a small squad, theres always 4 or 5 missing for us for some reason at the weekends

[DonalE]

33 in the league isn't bad at all :eek:

How many did McTiernan score for Boyle in the season before he joined Rovers?

[feo123]

33 in 18 games, then another 23 in cups etc, which would have been about 10 games! unbelievable!

[The Bit O'Red]

Strand Celtic 2 Manor Rangers 2, Manor missed a penalty as well.

[DonalE]

Congratulations Abbey, best team won it again

[red metal]

I didnt even know Manor were playing until wardy called up to the house.To tell me we had just won the league again.Manor will have tere day! of that i am sure still a lot of young lads in the squad.And they still have alot to play for yet.Still in conn cup local cups and the Champions Cup.But on saying we had to keep a eye over or shoulder the whole way.Very good side we knew they would run us close.After playing then in the first game of the season.Happy days number 6 in the bag.:):)

[feo123]

well done abbey again.....ye might give someone else a chance next year

[red metal]

well done abbey again.....ye might give someone else a chance next year

We have 1 or maybe 2 coming in next year.We still have a young squad so we will keep going while the going is good

[biscuit]

red metal, i take your thankyou in the form of a cold pint!:p

[DonalE]

You'll have to reinforce the mantelpiece Red Metal, it must be weighed down with trophies at this stage :D

Who are the young players coming through?

[neutrino]

I believe McTiernan scored 50 goals for Boyle. Shame to see him not playing now.

Is what i meant we still have a young squad!The average age is about 26 0r 27.So there is still a bit to come from this team.Just talking to wardy he told me he has 17 winners trophys since he started playing at juinor level.6 league 1 conn cup 5 Mc Sharry and foleys.2 champions cups.and 3 robert cawleys not a bad hall.And Paddy Conlon would be the same because they are the longest serving players at the club.Plus both of them won Sligo Leitrim player of the year

[feo123]

I have one Robert Cawley :D

was that the one keith phillips scored the winner or when the rooney fella scored in extra time?

[DonalE]

Yeah, Eamon Rooney scored the winner in extra time

[feo123]

well done manor and abbey today, great wins away in galway in the cup. abbey won 5-1 against galway hibs and manor beat mervue 2-1. fare play to both teams

[historynut]

If correct thats 6 in a row for Abbey UTD, have they won it previous to 02/03 ?
Any other team done 6 or more in a row ? or what was the previous record for successive championships ?

[red metal]

No we had never won it before that.And we still need 2 more points to wrap up this year to make it 6 in a row.Not sure what the previous record was i think Calry Bohs might have done 3 in a row.I could be wrong but maybe feo might know.

[historynut]

Thank you, if correct believe Calry Bohs were champions in 1986/87, 95/96, 99/2000, but they are the only ones I'm aware of.

well calry bohs will win it next season......and then for the next 6 years after that so they'll have the record in 7 years ;)

[The Bit O'Red]

Manor Rangers 0 Yeats United 1 (Full Time)

[red metal]

Strand Celtic fined €100 for not showing up on sunday last to face Boyle Celtic.

[The Bit O'Red]

Manor Rangers v. Abbey United 0-1


Manor Rangers season ending poorly, still in the Sligo/Leitrim cups tho. Beat Boyle (Cawley Cup) last week.

[Fireball]

Where can I get a list of the Sligo/Leitrim Super League fixtures - or what's left of them? Can anyone post this coming weekend's?

[red metal]

You will get them in the star tomorrow.

[The Bit O'Red]

Manor Rangers back on track, tried a couple of fringe players and were still comfortable 3-1 winners against City United.

[red metal]

Carbury 2 Manor Rangers 1.Manor had taken the lead with one of the best goals ive seen in a juinor game from mc goarty.2 goals in the last six mins for Carbury handed them the 3 points a header from Damien Fallon and a cracking goal from Glen mc Cormick to win it.What your take on the game bit of red?
