Dungannon Swifts 3-0 Loughgall

Linfield 2-1 Glenavon
Lisburn Distillery 1-4 Glentoran
Portadown 5-1 Newry City
So all the teams in next years Setanta won on the first day. I saw the highlights of Lisburn-Glentoran. Glentoran were pretty good. Surprisingly imo, Linfield are favourites for the title this season.
The Glens did play well, but from what I heard on the radio Linfield had a bit of a game on their hands, and only really shone in the last five or ten minutes.
BTW, The Blues have always favourites for the league, so I don't listen too much to that. However, this year, the Blues have played very well and have a good strong side; compare that to the Glens record of keeping the league in the past, it is no surprise this year and them being the favourites is fair enough.
Glentoran though have a great team too, a few are off with injuries, but when they get back we will be even better.
Anyway, I think this will be another great IL, very close between the top two or three.
Who will the Irish League team be in the Setanta Cup that wasn't in it this year?
I've discovered the IL as good source of betting. 3 way combo on Portadown/Linfield/Glentoran almost 3/1. I think they good to win all their 3 games 2 out of 3 weeks?
Dungannon Swifts I think.Quote:
