Mayo Premier League 2008

[Kilmore Fan]

Ye'll have to win next week now to do us a favour, good man ;)


Did you or did you not say that Crossmolina were the strongest out of what's there!!!!! We're obviously looking for a win so will try to do ye the favour;) Next weeks fixtures will certainly make things clearer with Swinford v Crossmolina to be played and of course us v Urlar. Is it true that if two teams end up on even points that goal difference doesn't count that they have to play each other?

Holy God. What happens if we all end up on the same points? Toss of a coin, draw straws, rock scisscors paper.
I say we all have a darts competition some Sunday in an agreed pub. Beer, Food and the winner goes to the SuperLeague.
Providing the M.L don't decide that anyone fininshing on a double 7 must drink 3 fatfrogs off the head and playoff in a game of 3 and your in with the team who scored the most away goals out of the bottom 3 teams in the Super League.

Thats just what I think anyway.

[FahyForever]

Fahy 0 - 2 Celtic B

Good football played by both sides, celtic got early goal and then sat on it. We were gulity of missing a sh*t load of chances, including myself!! Celtic sneeked one in at the end.

Always hard to take when you play well and lose but thats life!! Automatic spot between us and Urlar now (who beat Glenhest 4-1 yesterday). They have to take maximum points and hope that we draw and lose our last 2 games.

In other games, Westport drew with Swinford, Cross lost to Kilmore and dont know about S & F and Manulla?

I enjoyed the match yesterday but felt it was impaired considerably by an absolute shocking performance from the referee. He gave at least four blatantly incorrect offside decisions against Fahy, two of which were about 3-4 yards on, with only the keeper to beat. I was level with the last line for both of them and they were truly incomprehensible calls. Also, shouting ´shut your mouth, shut it!´to a player is not appropriate either. It felt like an ironic twist of faith when Celtic got their second, with minutes to go, from a patently offside position.

That´s not Celtic´s fault of course, I thought they did well, considering they´ve lost Torphy and Fallon in the last few weeks. They had a nice blend of youth and experience yesterday and played some good football. However, I found one element of the match disconcerting, as I have every time we´ve played Celtic B for the last five years: having to hear the word ´nigger´being shouted sporadically at full volume throughout the game, by both the man whose nickname it is and the fans. Now I know it´s not intended as racism, but I think it´s time to put this one to bed. I saw lots of young kids running around at the match, overhearing one of the most hateful words available being shouted out. Would it be accaptable if people were running around roaring ´chink´or ´paki´ or ´faggot´on a field in Mayo on a Sunday afternoon?

The man in question has been a stalwart in the celtic defence, organising them and inspiring them for years now. He was even on hand to give some help to one of our players when he cramped up towards the end of the game! I´m sure, like everyone else with a nickname, he didn´t pick it himself, but I think he should send a message out to the younger players in what is an ethnically-diverse club, that it should stay where it assuredly belongs - in the past.

Well done to Straide and Foxford in lifting the title, they fully deserve it. Hoping they can do the Premier League proud in the final against Snugboro!

That sounds good to me!!! darts and drinking comp it is then. It seems to be that if teams end up even they play each other.Ye could only end up even with Urlar if ye lose 2 and they win one&draw 1 or if ye draw 2 and they win 2. We gonna do our best to make sure that don't happen. There is however a chance that we could end up even with Crossmolina Urlar and Swinford!!!!! I'm guessing that out of 4, two teams are surely going to end up even..... The darts and drinking comp might be an idea if all 4 of us end up even!!! Whoever wins goes to SuperL and whoever loses goes down????????Now That would be some end of season party.

Thats a big one. Refs need to respect the players. Players need to respect the refs. A player should be allowed to question a refs decision providing he does it in an acceptable manner. The ref should have the courtesy to give him reason. Fans on the sideline abusing refs is unacceptable and gives the wrong impression to young kids at matches.

[Cloggs]

We beat Crossmolina 2-1 today. Should have beaten them by alot more but their keeper played a blinder and made some excellent saves. Credit where credit is due. Things are still very open!!!!!

now now,self praise is no praise!:D:D

[Cloggs]

yes that was me playing right back, behind hughes great man to have in front of ya! no theres no chance of taking foot of pedals at all its gonna run nice for us preperation wise our last game against kilmore is week before chadwicks final and we should be well prepared and hopefully with no injures, doubt the manager would change too much its nice to keep the flow of winning going and playing well as a starting 11 like we have done all season, if you change too much it would upset rythem and if we got beat confidence might dip slightly so id say you need not to worry cloggs!

good to hear!true the team would be disrupted alright,was just wondering if the lads who might not have been getting much of a run in the league might be a bit disgruntled with little match action during the season
on the game yesterday against celtic.thought that it was a good game but was very disappointed to come off the pitch on the losing side,particularly with the amount of chances that we had and the offside decisions but such is football and we have to get a win next weekend against manulla b,hoping that kilmore can do us a favour(just in case)it'd be better to make sure of it ourselves though!!

[Kilmore Fan]

now now,self praise is no praise!:D:D


Read it again. I was praising their keeper !!!!! I'm hoping he will be as good for their game v Swinford.

Is it true that if two teams end up on even points that goal difference doesn't count that they have to play each other?

Hoping ye'll beat Urlar, but they look good lately so will be tough for ye. If Urlar win its all over for ye and Cross as I assume Cross will be beaten by S & F this weekend...

Promises to be an exciting weekend though...

We'll certainly do our best! This wkend should decide alot.Three big games
Us v Urlar
Swinford v Crossmolina (not S&F as you said)
Fahy v Manulla

As you can see from the table below it's sooooooooo close. It's a crazy league when teams that are fighting for the possible third promotion spot are also fighting against relegation. If Erris b get promoted (currently looking that way)that will be yet another b team in premier. Something needs to change! This league is being treated as a joke and that's unfair to the non b teams in it.

good football who do you play for? how many b teams are in the premier league now?

[Cloggs]

i read it again and you can see why i thought that:oapologies all the same though!hope yee can beat urlar on saturday evening.i hear that our game has been moved from the original 6pm kickoff to a 7pm kickoff instead presumably because of the ireland game against georgia.presume all the other games have been changed also?

[Cloggs]

anyone have any idea of when the fai junior cup games will be taking place and when the draw is?

[GoodFootball]

good football who do you play for? how many b teams are in the premier league now?

3 B teams in premier, westport, celtic and manulla. Erris B might come up this year, then again is 20 pts enough to keep manulla B in the premier.

I play for Fahy Rovers...

[r.rover]

who are urlar playing last day of season?

Fahy Drew 1-1 with Manulla b. I heard that means we're promoted. Can anyone verify this?

[celtic92]

celtic b beat westport b 3-0 at celtic park

[Kilmore Fan]

Urlar were a no show!!! So I guess that means congrats Fahy! Does anyone know how the Crossmolina v Swinford game went?

Kilmore aren't safe yet! The permutations are numerous. Lets go through them: Final Day scenarios
Swinford beat Urlaur
S & F beat Kilmore
Crossmolina lose.
This would leave urlaur, swinford and kilmore on 21 points and need some sort of playoff to see who gets promoted.
Swinford beat Urlaur
S & F beat Kilmore
Crossmolina win.
Similiar scenario to last one but this time, Crossmolina are promoted and urlaur, swinford and kilmore all still on 21 points need some sort of playoff to see who gets relegated!
If Urlaur or Kilmore win they'll probably go up, unless they both win and then there would be another playoff. Then you've got Manulla B and Westport B who could finish level on points with someone and maybe they would have to be involved in some sort of playoff also? Who knows what the rules are. Interesting.

[Kilmore Fan]

Does anyone have any idea what happens if a few teams end up on equal points? when will the decision be made? How do you find out?

Our manager got told (from the ref supposed to be doing the game) that Urlar rang Kilmore and said they were safe and didn't care about the points cause they dont want to get promoted so they were not going travelling all the way to kilmore....If they get away with that its a disgrace,it affects every team below them and its just unfair..

[mayomaniac]

i tell you why - and its from a reliable source - they wont paid the money for the bus down to kilmore! - what you think of that!

I'm afraid your reliable source is wrong, I have being playing for Urlaur for 5 years and we have never got a bus to travel to the game the reason we did' nt travel is too make a match at 6 in Kilmore we would have to have left sometime before 4 and with most of our team working we only could get around 8 people so had to call it off. Apologies to all the teams battling with Kilmore

[Kilmore Fan]

The story I heard is that they couldn't get enough to field a team.

[robben 11]

7 years since Fahy reformed, its been a long wait alright, cheers ;) And we made tough work of it :D

Dont think we will have our own pitch for next season, but the lads will be working hard behind the scenes to insure we can play super league with pitch rental or share with another club.

Fahy: Joe Keane, Colin Napier
Westport B: Colin Cameron
Manulla B: quick fella up front
Kilmore: Kiaran Kelly (Goalie)
Swinford: Nobody outstanding
Urlar: Same here
Crossmolina: Tall guy in centre mid
Glenhest: Nobody

Never heard of a Kieran Kelly, But if it's the goalie you're after that would be Stephen O'Boyle.

My mistake, there is another keeper called kiaran kelly I think but I did mean your keeper :D

I reckon our own keeper would have been keeper of the season if he joined us at the begining of the season...

i'd agree although i am of course biased!hes saved at least 6 penalties for us this year

[ExCiTeD]

Now that the league is nearly at an end, whats ye're team of the year?
firstly congrats to fahy on your promotion i really hope ye get the pitch issue sorted yer a good bunch and deserve your crack at big boys.
on the team of the year id agree with most candidates however cant believe the names not being mentioned. celtic finished second in the division and quite a few of the team that played most of the season with us have gone on to hold their place in the super league team and danny fallon and eoin torpey have just signed for sligo rovers how in gods name can they not be in the team of the year? eamonn crean has been our captain and probably our most consistant performer all year along with the lads already mentioned and the outstanding peter drevins who somebody else has already proposed.one other player i feel deserves a mention is 16 year old james mcgurrin he has come from nowhere this season to establish himself as one of the best full backs in the club through playing for the b team and will certainly be a first team regular next seaon as has already proved his worth in the super league this season.mark towey another teenager at only seventeen has also been promoted from our squad to play regularly at left back for declans first team and should have a big shout to make this team. i may be a little biased towards my club but we finished second and therfore we are the second best team in the division and i feel the players that achieved that should get their deserved recognition

[celtic92]

well said excited im sure youll get stick for being biased but you are 100% right james mc guerrin has been brilliant and he has been with us since he was a 'youngin' and its great to see local lads making the step up
