From what i have seen off newtown this year all be it in cup games they seemed to have a good team davy will be a huge loss to them but he is only one player and they have alot off quality thoughout there team should have enough there to challenge for title only my opinion
does anyone know if it's possible to bet on the Youths Cup in Clare?? I think its on next weekend...
Hav to say Moher are a fair decent side and will take some stooping to win the league at this stage..Fancy their chances for the cup too. Newtown are going nowhere fast either now...reckon dat deir season is as good as over
best of luck to newmarket youths in last 16 of fai on saturday. reaching last 8 would be a great achievement
Firstly u18 are youths and still regarded as kids and betting on underage sport is kind of against what most of us here in Clare soccer are about. What happened to development, ethics and fair play:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Secondly I think u have no interset or idea about clare soccer as the league is about far more teams than 2. Bridge Celtic wont roll over easy and Moher have to travel there which as Newtown found out (just) isn't easy. Avenue still have a shout and every other club will have an input as to where that league goes.
Lastly I agree Moher are STRONG favourites for the league and fair play to them on that but to say another clubs season is over is purely just to stir the pot. Newtown are prob a better cup team than league (hard to beat, draws etc) and im sure they wont bow out of the cup too easy, like every1 else. Cups can make a season also e.g. Corofin last two yrs
yeah dat wud be brilliant alrite. they hav a fairly decent team nd if it wasnt for de minor hurlin final bein de same day as their munster youth cup game wit the 'overrated' newtown,it just might av ben newmarket celtic in de quarter final against wembley nd dey wud not av showed wembley de amount of respect newtown did.
I think Newmarket av good chance of gettin 2 last 8 in FAI, they av a very talented midfield duo in Eoin Hayes nd Eoin O'Brien. Best of luck 2 dem in Waterford on saturday
you get nothing for might have been or if only... surely this is newmarkets problem if a lot of their players want to play hurling as there first choice.. anway best of luck in fai .. :) :)
oh yeah overrated newtown youths .. in fairness i have not seen any posts from newtown lads boasting about the youths team ..
any word on de clare cup second round games being on or off this weekend??
can someone tell me: i was at the bridge celtic v newtown game in obriensbridge last sunday nd i noticed that their tallysman from last season Ger o'connel wasnt playin?? where has he gone this year...he was on de clare oscar panel last year lik so he hardly retired this season? bridge c r in 4 a dog fite from us sunday...need 2 mak amenz 4 last season embrasment of b team nokin us out...
Does anyone know what the Junior league have against publishing the under 17 league table.It was the same last year.It is essential that if people think it is important enough to have a 17 league that the tables are published regularly????

Predictions
Newtown

Burren
Shannon Oly
Moher
Corofin
Bunratty
Avenue
Would agree with all your predictions young lad except think Lifford will beat Avenue just my opinion think all the rest will be as you have stated
Does anyone know where you would get odds on the teams left in the cup to win it out. Is there any bookies that does that in Clare
[QUOTE=shelbourne1904;632025]I don't see how Newmarket are underdogs. I do think Corofin will win but it will take huge improvement on performances this year. A number of key players have had a loss of form so on that basis and the fact newmarket are a premier team they would have to be the favourites.
have a feeling Lifford B could turn over Burren. Havent seen the burren lads play but i know the Lifford B team are going well and will take a good team to beat them.
I also fancy Corofin.... First is going to love me for saying this , but i dont think the cup tops the agenda in newmarket. Corofin will be defending their title and of all the teams in the league Ballycar will probably suit Corofin.
2 mouth watering ties... newtown bridge... im going for home win
also the battle of the townies.... ahh this thread has been much too quiet this year, hopefully it will sring into life soon
[QUOTE=plasticpitch;632088]I also fancy Corofin.... First is going to love me for saying this , but i dont think the cup tops the agenda in newmarket. Corofin will be defending their title and of all the teams in the league Ballycar will probably suit Corofin.
Plasticpitch welcome back.
The cup is very much on Newmarkets agenda and plus the fact Corofin knocked Newmarket out of the cup two years ago still rancours with the lads. 2000 was the last time Newmarket won it and thats along time.
The first priority is to avoid relegation which I beleive they will ,but the losses against Moher and Olympic have put a certain level of doubt in peoples minds. The club does not want to start next season in the first division what with the new pitch. No one will take Corofin for granted what with them being the cup winners for the last two seasons but as Shelbourne has said Newmarket will love the underdog tag.:)
More on the relegation issue than the cup but hs anyone ever noticed when a clubs committee becomes preoccupied with a new developement the focus goes off their teams and they nearly always suffer.Remember Newtown,won the League in Ballycasey but the signs were showing and were relegated the next season.Look at Lifford this year with their new grounds,St Pats are in trouble after just moving in to their new home??The bridge did well in their first few years in the new ground but with the current very unlucky problem with one side of the ground,they are spluttering.I just hope and I mean this sincerely ,bearing in mind that noone has an automatic right to premiership status,that Newmarkets first game on their new pitch is NOT in the First Division!!!
As far as I know they have never been out of the topflight and their is noone else who can say that .
On a more humorous note it will sicken us if we dont get to beat them on their new pitch after having to play up the Hill of Golgotha for 30 years or more!!!!
Come on the Village we need you in the Premier
[QUOTE=First;632593]Interesting you also believe Corofin are favourites. I can't ever remember a team in the first division being favourites against a premier team. I believe particularly with home advantage Newmarket have to be favourites and we also love the underdog tag.
All due respect young lad, Corofin are cup champions 2 years running but i don't think its fair to give Newmarket the underdog tag, it'll be an even game but we all know in cup football anything can happen... to this weeks fixtures, big game in shannon this week i hear both teams are missing a few heads.. any predictions!?
I heard Rob Wall will be out for a few weeks, he'll be sickened as i'd say he'd love a bash at his old club, i think there are another couple of uncertainties in the Olympic camp. Newtown were missing Eamonn o'neill on sunday against cratloe through injury, another player who'd love to play against his old team as he used to play for Oly, Newtown still missing 2 major players in Ryan Kelly and Anto White, not to mention the loss of davy. They have a decent squad down at Newtown though and i reckon your right about it being a close game i'll go for a 2-1 home win. If its on, weather doesn't look good and the newtown pitch is surely cut up from last week!? Any idea Shelbourne?

Shelbourne I like the description of the Hill. Liking Newmarket to the place where our Lord and saviour was crucified shows a lot of imagination.
But from what I remember about the games in Newmarket we always let the visitors play at least 45mins down the hill too.;)
Id say the pitch will make it ok but wont be great.Im not that convince about the home team though.An awfull lot of important people missing.One thing though is they are easily the hardest to score against Newtown team I have ever seen.The problem start after that.
[QUOTE=First;633528]usually visitors if lost toss were made to play down hill in first half
and you needed a 2-3 nil lead to face the newmarket blitz in the second half.. must add it was very rare to get a good lead against newmarket back in the good old day .. :ball: :ball:
yeah its gonna be very close but lookin at the table you have to fancy newtown although olympic aren't on a bad run.. 10-0 win in their last game, doesn't look like they have a problem in front of goal. that seems to be where newtown are struggling.
Moher Celtic A V Rinnanna Rovers i'd say everyone in the top half will be lookin for a rovers win in this game. whats the story with cup matches on paddys weekend? has there been matches on paddys weekend in the past? wonder will it cause any problems with players going away for the weekend etc.
