Some differences

Full Cup Draws

Ballina have blown it with sundays draw to celtic and westport will go on to win the league again,having said that it was gone when they were defeated by ballyheane some weeks back!anyone think the leagues need a reshuffle or a change in structure???teams in the premier being promoted are gonna go back down and the top 3 in the super are miles away in class then any other team in the divisions,look at snugboro have conceded around 65 goals and still prob won't be relegated!!!

Hard to know what to do really Ron, fact of football, it happens in all league throughout the country and world. You cannot place restrictions on successful clubs. The PL in England is the same, same top 4 year for the last near 10 years. What can they do?

I wrote on this a number Weeks ago. if Ballyheane hadn't beet en Ballina then we would be talking that teams in the safe zone have nothing to play for.
well there is always pride. we can't control winners and losers or were a team finishes. its the game that decides if you are good enough.you will always have a top 4 and a bottom 3.
Snugboro only stayed up because Manulla didn't beat them last year, its this that need to be qestioned.

As I said before the so called Super League is just a name. All it is, is just a training session for the "Big Teams" to get ready for the Connaught Cup and the FAI Cup. It must be nigh on impossible for some clubs to sign players especially the promoted clubs because they are always fighting relegation the following year. It think that questions have to be asked about the motives of some clubs in relation to the league. If they are not in contention for honours they don't put much effort into it and can be on the receiving end of some funny results which can reflect the table at both ends. But when the Connaught Cup comes around its all hell for leather for it. We all know who I'm on about and they are involved in controversy but they have been doing this for years. The Super League( in my opinion) wont be around in the next ten years with the continued mooting of the Connaught Senior League unless things and attitudes change. This thing of "throwing "games undermines all the effort people put in and makes a mockery of the "Super League":mad:

as a matter of interest,

who keeps a record of the top scorers in every division, would be interesting to see them....

R u on top there JP lad??? A budding Drogba? ;)

Good match reports there JP on yer website, well put together and detailed.

Get over it man. That was last year. Start concentrating on this year- ask the question in your own club about why the heane can perform against ballina one day, and get hammered in manulla another! They're being unfair to themselves. If they could do a "Ballina" every week they could have won the league, not dwelling on the near relegation of last season.

Dont think anyone keeps them. They can be wrong some years with people claiming goals that they havent scored to get the prize! I think its up to refs to get the goalscorers name on his report- can anyone confirm this?

How many have you got by the way?:)

ah i've lost count to be honest, ah have 4 or 5 i think,

was just wondering, i hear celtic 'b' have some players back according to there website??

between injuries, wedding, stags etc the B team is probably back near full strenght.

Still missing maybe 2 or 3.

sorry to disapoint you,just to say we had other advents the night before the manulla game, which meant players were not available.
there isn,t much of this year left to concentrate on.
regards to s/boro they should have been down last year.this year has been a horror show.

lol, Thats football, Snugboro stayed up last year because there was two teams worse than them and they'll stay up this year for the same reason. Ballyheane are the horror show imo.

Happy Happy Happy talk!!! Talking Happy talk!!!! :D:D:D

I presume that when you made this comment it was directed towards the originator rather than the whole of Ballyheane FC. I would very much like to think so anyway......:(

Aplogies, renovater is the joke.

Thanks for setting that straight:)
Congrats on staying up and not having to rely on the machiavelli posturings of a certain 'Best club in the world' this year :mad:
Truth is ye were much better than C\Molina & C\Morris, although there is football in Glenhest so they were a shade unfortunate - Maybe ye can do a Manulla this Year and keep the Hest up. Then Club of the year 2008 will surely follow. If you can throw in a good fist fight as well - it has been know to help before.

Ur Right about one thing May be a little better than the bottom 2, but some of your results were poor. which would undermined how you manage to live up to super league standards, At leased Ballyheane held there own for there apart, if I have any criticism it was there poor discipline which may have shown some poor displays unable to field there strongest team.
Regards to horror show,try to explain. I never witness Ballyheane to struggle this
season, we won 3 games more than last year never looked like relegation candidates.
Good luck having achieved your goal in staying with the big boys!!!
lets hope glenhest can live with us

Well Mossy why can't you for once congratulate Manulla for being the best club in the world, as you put it instead of bring an old grudge.
At the end of the day, they lead by good example.There are some good guys there,even though like everywhere there is local politics.
your club could have done da Hest a favour, but choose not to,so I dont think you should ask someone else to do your own tidyings
Da hest can only stay up if there good enough, and I doubt if the boro keep them up will hardly win club of the world.
I would like to think all clubs are proud of what Manulla has achieved even if some of us envy them, because we have under achieved or expect others to do there work,or just turn up for the photo shoot

renovater having struggled to read your comments over the past couple of months i believe you should go back to primary school to concentrate on your spellings and then perhaps you could leave messages on this thread. what is "at leased"? also read over what you've typed before you post it eg "i never witness ballyheane to struggle this season" we know what your trying to say but

LOL, good point :)

Any truth in the rumour that the man on the hot seat in Ballyheane is allegedly stepping aside?:confused: Surely someone of Ballyheane connections may confirm or deny the story.

The Super League table reflects on the performance of each club in the division, not on allegations of "match throwing".
