Fixtures
Tuesday March 31 @ 18.15
Star V Shannon
Cappamore V Balla B


These are 2 big games now for different reasons. After shannon's loss to Balla they need a win against star to keep the rpessure on for promotion.

The other 2 teams then are fighting to avoid relegation.

[Dallas]

Shannon Town 1 BallaB 3
Deserved their win no excuse's we were shocking. Its gonna be long week if we continue to play like that

that was a massive 3 points for balla, they have eased their relegation situation a little, there is a few teams there hanging around the drop zone and that win will do a world of good for their confidence etc.....

Well if they keep playing like that they wont get relegated...in fact they might do us a favour and take some points of the others:ball:

[abbeyvale]

9....

Theres goes your 9points Shannonman, how many points do you think ye'll get now? Are ye missing any players for tomorrow? We are missing one I think, but have 3 more back since yesterday (they were on a stag),

Will be missing a few ya...and its a bit hit and miss aswell with lads trying to get a couple of hours off to play...the joys of the midweek games...and of course who turns up tomorrow and is carring a small knock or whatever..but bottom line is both teams in the same situation between work and playing on sunday so cant complain...as for points....im not even gonna give a number seeing as i called sunday all wrong...just gotta hope we play better then we did yesterday. or else we can kiss any chance of promotion goodbye.

[kobayashi]

I was surprised with the other results, summerville and star are right back in contention for promotion now:ball:

Any of the top 6 teams can get promoted now it seems. Star have come good in recent weeks and are a good run at the moment. The next three weeks will have a huge bearing on the race for promotion.

May the best team win!!!!

[dines08]

the next two weeks are gonna have a huge say on who gets promoted...as far as i know it's geraldine's star on sunday and geraldine's mungret thursday week. The games against those around you are massive now

Abbeyvale do you know anything about this...we have played them away already this season.....

[Dallas]

Something not right there...we played mungret away already this season...

when we played ye this season in mungret, it was down for shannon but switched due to the pitch so it might not have been updated in the system, a misprint i'd say

[Lev Yashin]

Its nice though isn't it....four games in a week and the last one is against the league leaders!!! lovely!

[abbeyvale]

Ive asked the question and Im waiting on a reply, but I'd imagine the venue will be switched.

[Lev Yashin]

Thanks!!!
ready for tonight??

[Dallas]

but isnt that many players want, to test themselves against the league leaders?

[Lev Yashin]

Ya...but your missing the point...that will be pur fourth game in seven days...and we have to play the "best" team in the league...going to be tough!

[Dallas]

Quite true i didnt take that into account my apoligies, it'll be tough all the same regardless of any team, 4 games in a week will take it out of anyone

cappamore 4 1 balla

Star 0-1 Shannon

The less said about this game the better, both sides were poor enough with very few chances in the game and a great diving header from Gerry Kelly mid-way through the second half won it for Shannon, who slightly shaded the game.

Might have been a poor game but it is a great result for us..puts us back on track and hopefully now we can push on...no point me saying anything about the game as you summed it up...Gerry's header was the difference between the teams.

Were ye missing any of your regular line up last night? Just curiuos!!!!

[Lev Yashin]

Were ye missing any of your regular line up last night? Just curiuos!!!!

Well alot of the lads last night had to pull favours to get off work but we were missing one striker and four lads had a football macth....
My maths aren't great but i think thats 5...now im not saying they would have started but you never know

Realistically how many of the 5 would be regulars (ie; started in any of your last 2/3 games??), the reason I ask is because we were missing 3 regular starters and had to play a centre half and winger in the middle of the park................hopefully we'll be near enough full strenght on Sunday v The Dines away................

Well the striker who was missing would have definatly played and maybe one or two others...its hard to say really because we were missing a few for the balla game(not an excuse, we were rubbish) and before that we had two lawson games which the team was totally changed for. so hard to tell...as your aware sure midweek games are about who you can get and who you cant and then making the best of a bad situation....its gonna to be like that tomorrow for us

All true, I'm hoping to be at tomorrow's game, which I think might be a sticky one for ye, not because of the oppostion but mainly due to the fact that it will be yer 3rd game in 5 days, and fitness will really tell.

Well we kinda anticipated that we would have a week like this so that in the last few weeks we have been training very hard to get the fitness levels up...but dont get me wrong we will be sore and probably carrying a few by the end of the game tomorrow but if we want any chance of promotion just gotta suck it up and know we have a bit of a break before our next game(two days!!!) :eek:

[Rafa 08]

huge week for mungret comin up!!!shannon and the dines one after another should be good.lets hope they slip up like united:D

[Lev Yashin]

Shannon town and Prospect was abandonded about 15 mins into the second half....we had just gone 2-1 up...the ref recieved some abuse from the sideline and decided to call the game off

whats funny?

the bit where it says match abandoned or do you not have a sense of humor

[Lev Yashin]

the bit where it says match abandoned or do you not have a sense of humor

I do..but again i dont see whats funny about a game being abandonded?? we were winnimg two one..the game was being played by two teams who were only interested in the football and yet the game was abandonded...strange sense of humour you have

[da bishop]

was at this game and have to say i dont know what the referee was at,he hardly helped himself with his performance which was not great,especially his decision for shannons second goal which looked well offside.having said that i did not hear any abuse from either teams sideline bar the usual stuff.i did see a prospect mentor lose the rag after that goal but he did,n seem to direct his rage at the referee.there were a group drinking on one side of pitch,maybe they upset him.for a team struggling at the bottom thought prospect were not bad,shannon good too.

None of the lads drinking said anything, the guy 'lost the rag' after the goal went in but he hardly said anything just the usual letting of steam if a dodgy goal goes in, he asked him leave the sideline which he gave him about 3 seconds to do then blew it up, there wasnt a bad tackle in the match i think the ref overreacted.

[Ballsy]

and it begins:D

bad result on the night as mungret controlled the game. in terms of the league its not a bad result at all...did the dines not get a hockying at the weekend out there??

[no17 fan]

big game for summerville at the weekend,a win against croom after mungret and dines dropped points woud really help them in the push for promotion,

Croom would nearly be favourites against summerville now after their last 2 results? played against them earlier in the season and thought they were a good side

[Football Alien]

its great to see such a battle for promotion, is it safe to say that Mungret should be safe for promotion at the least?

would agree with you there. mungret deserve to go up, they're the best side in the division. it's then between geraldines, star, charleville, shannon and summerville for the other one, very hard to call

[dines08]

agree with you there. The next two weeks will go a long way to deciding it
