Big week for both the boro and s&f, whats the thoughts on this one??
yes its a big game for both clubs.think it be a close game.The boro favourites to win,but s&f will be up for it,,, its a hard game to call!!!!
Are you a snuggie?
It wasn't long ago when we pi$$ed all over ye in division 1 ;) Now ye have the best financial backing in the ML but ye still cant win anything. Fitzie and JJ will tear ye apart, should be an entertaining game though...if ya like one sided affairs :D
Because the Boro are second in the Super League? Favourite tag doesn't mean much anyway. I don't think the 11 S&F players that take the pitch on Sunday will be too intimidated by the Boro.
Some of the more outspoken members of the S&F side are fairly confident. They don't think the Boro can handle Paul Fitzpatrick. Good player. Do S&F have anyone that can handle Paul Curry? Supposedly Galway United will have a scout at the game to look at Curry. Hopefully he plays to his potential. Stevie G has played with Noel Hunt and says that Paul is just as good as him but unfortunately won't get the opportunity to play at that level.
Its a tough game to call. Our last league game against Ballyheane was called off so we haven't played a game since Ballinrobe.(4 weeks before Final) We didn't play well that day. The fact that S&F have played as recently as yesterday probably gives them an edge.
I'm not sure of the injury/suspension/absentee situation, so I think we should have a fairly strong lineup. For that reason, I think Snugboro should win the game 2-0.
this is tough one to call, the boro of late has suffered the jitters. S/f will go through fire and brim stone.
S/F for me would have to be odds on 2 win, then a gain the experience of Stevie Gavin might just tip the scales, if he can control his charges.
What ever happens The Super league is not on trial :rolleyes:
I believe this could be a good game with alot of goals. Both teams have great strikers, but i believe both defences will be found out on the big pitch milebush is!!!
I really dont know where your coming from,Ok ye beat Ballina after they made three defensive errors and handed ye three goals,I can see it been a very close affair,evan as close as going to a penalty shoot out.I agree that on thier day that jj and pf are very good strikers,Fair play to them on winning promotion in style this year.People understimate pc and sc for snugboro.Snugboro worked off a panel of 16-17 players all season and a little bit a credit must go to all of them,players and managers alike.In everybodys eyes this time last year they were relagation fodder.The money quote by somebody else here is a load of you know what.I hate all this talk of Money that people talk about and certain clubs,all hearsay:ball:
If the Boro have a decent keeper signed since they last played in the sportspark, they should be ok. Otherwise S&F will walk it.
If you´re so against speculation and hearsay you should practice what you preach and not presume you know which club people are affiliated to. If you bothered to read these pages you would realise GoodFootball is not an S+F man, he merely rates them after playing against them four times this year. The old cliche of attack the post not the poster should come into play here. ´You obviously don´t know what you´re talking about´ is a bit rich. Also, to oppose someone mentioning money, which has unfortunately but definitely become a factor in the Mayo League, is to (A) promote ignorance of this unhealthy development and (B) draw attention away from the clubs who practice it. Primarily Celtic and now Snugboro. As you well know.
Well I think you generally have an unbiased, decent attitude in your posts Joe, so if you say that Snugboro have no renumeration system in place at the club whatsoever then I´ll take your word for it. Speculation and hearsay (which someone else was hypocritically claiming to abhor, not me) are unfortunately the only thing one can go on regarding a club´s finances, short of attending the AGM. I was never at a Celtic AGM but was well aware that Dykes was getting paid, club car etc. How? Someone told me. My comments regarding Snugboro was based on the same premise, someone in the game told me. When ye signed a lot of talent and came second in the league it seemed to add up. If I have misrepresented your club I apologise.
Any advice to a small club hoping to join the ranks of the Super league who could do with expanding the squad with talent but have no intention of paying anyone? It might come in really handy ;)
Point taken and I now realise that Goodfootball is not an S n F man.Again I will apologise for assuming as one should never assume.However Has goodfootball played against snugboro this year or for that matter Seen them play.You talk about hearsay but can either of you say that you have seen snugboro play and how have you based your assumptions on a 3-0 win.You say that it would be good for the premier league and I agree that if S n F win it would be great.Im not opposing the fact of money or talking about money,all you get here is people talking about money that a or b or c is getting money,but when you ask the hard questions like giving examples,people have problems giving answers.Thats my point....dont talk about hearsay and if you do, mention the figures that these guys are getting otherwise its "hearsay".All hot air.Money has crept into mayo laegue football,of that there is no doubt.Why do you mention JUst "Celtic" and "Snugboro",what about your neighbours??? They were the first ever to pay players,and on that I can Caterogically guarantee that no celtic or snugboro player is getting paid.
Fair enough. To be honest I don´t want to get caught up in an argument about players getting paid because it´s just going to cause hassle and I don´t have the revelant details. I was just sticking up for Goodfootball as I thought your reply was harsh. Not that he needs sticking up for. I´ve already replied to Joe Denilson and want to opt out of the debate at that point. You´re right - I didn´t see Snugboro this year, but then I didn´t assume anything! I never made a prediction and have said nothing derogatory about the team. Best of luck.
