As I said in my previous post we need the points,Clearly we need those points to stay in the division my main reason for the post was to emphasise the importance of remaining competitive in the last few games which are crucial at both ends of the table.Quote:

They will find it way harder next season in 1B. some very good teams in 1B and they certainly won't run away with it. But I would still fancy them them to push for yet another promotionQuote:

Agree they will find it tougher but every year teams have said they would find it tough in the division above and they haven't really. They have improved their squad with every move up the divisions. 1B will be tough but still fancy them again next year. The difference between the top teams in most divisions (1B down) is minimal.Quote:

We have played teams from those so called higher divisions and have not been out of place, some players want to help their teams move up the divisions and it may take a few seasons but they are willing to be patient whereas other players will switch from team to team depending on their mood each year. A player who stays with his club to help them achieve this is to be commendedQuote:

League matches are totally different. I guarantee you that any of the teams you mentioned above would badly struggle in 1A or 1B. It's easy to motivate lower league teams against the higher league teams whereas its harder to motivate higher league teams against the lower league teams, hence why you see a lot of shocks in the cups. 22 games in 1A is a totally different storyQuote:

You have a team from 1A in the quarters of the Munster Junior and in the Lawson you have Caherdavin and Knockainey in the quarters of the Lawson for example. Not only that but at present 6 teams are in contention for promotion in 1B, 6 teams that could easily handle playing in 1A. As for 1A this season, the top 2 teams have been excellent, far better than Shannon Town and Star were last season, and also Croom have been very good. Even us (Charleville) have improved immensely. I think the standard of 2A this season has been very poor compared to recent yearsQuote:

Woeful bad? As in compared to the Premier? Where 2 teams fight it out for the league (Pike and Fairview), and everyone else fights against relegation! I've seen a good few Premier games over the years and it's getting worse every yearQuote:
