carew have an objection after yesterdays defeat. castlebar's keeper was not signed in time.........an objection was sent in after the last round but the junior council decided that the keeper was signed but just was not registered.
this is like what happened to carew last year. if it goes to senior council carew will win the appeal. senior council will go by the book
Athenry beat manulla earlier in this competition, should have won yesterday in the connaught cup really but went a man down after 20 mins and that killed it more or less.good luck to manulla in it,sound lads.Quote:

How can you lose to Manulla after destroying Ballyheane. It makes no sense. The Heane have lost to Manulla only once in the last 18fixtures, yet ye hammered them 4 - 1 and could not defeat a Manulla side who struggled in this years Super League. Examples might help perhaps
Manulla 3 Celtic 6
Manulla 0 Westport 5
Celtic 4 Manulla 0
Westport 3 Manulla 0
As opposed to
Ballyheane 1 Celtic 2
Ballyheane 1 Westport 0
Celtic 3 Ballyheane 2
Westport 3 Ballyheane 0
Just makes no sense thats all. Had ye the same squad in all the matches or was that super striker not interested in Manulla ?
Just does not make sense
I will agree that their manager is sound Mossy is his name. Not Me, by the way and they have only just shafted him at their last AGM !!!
Anyway best of luck in the FAI Cup as 5 Connaught Clubs remaining
yea we had a couple of absentees yesterday, one of our best players was dismissed after the manulla striker boxed him after 20 mins and the ref only seen our man pushing him, but i must say the ref was very one sided(Mike something, i recall him reffing our college games) gave manulla everything, he was the same for gmit when i played with them gave us all the decisions, but anyway that happens in football.
we were by far the better side even with ten men but fair play to the manulla keeper, pulled off about 5-6 great saves. not to worried about the result,the footie was v good, i think the League is the main priority for us this year then the FAI cup, we lost in 2-1 ina playoff last year to mervue after leading the premier all year, so were out to make sure that doesnt happen this season.
Carew have every right to feel aggrieved, the three peno's were questionable to say the least. Check out the Mayo Junior soccer and Connaught Cup threads to read more on Ciaran Kelly and the transfer, you could find some juicy info.Quote:

If I were Carew i'd complain about the ref though, woefully unfair to them at times (the Carew centre half was fit to chew blocks after ten minutes, such was his disbelief at some of the decisions). It's about time ref's from other districts were used for all rounds where the draw is open. Cost more but fairer.
Not to be too hung up on this but I'd hazard a guess that there are more teams in Munster and Leinster than in Connacht three times over. What about all the 'big' teams down there? Where are they now? Oh, that's right, they're in Geography class!Quote:

Mayo referees have come under the microscope often enough and the performance yesterday from the referee was as good as the actual game-shocking!!:eek:Quote:

We wait with interest.
J.d. makes sure the right ref is at manu you dont get much from themQuote:

So, if Carew do lodge an objection on Rule 42, who is going to be the sacrificial lamb out of all this morass? This would be a disaster for Celtic if Carew object on Rule 42 and it is upheld. The question is, on the flip side, if Castlebar Celtic were aware of Rule 42, why bother trying to play this guy and try to get away with it, if they knew that there could be a problem? I can sense a little bit of deja vu from this.Quote:

In the Mayo League you cannot sign players after a certain date, 31 July?
That means a Mayo league team, according to the rule book anoraks, have to use the same squad from August to May, if they reach the Junior cup, or indeed Connaught Cup Finals. 10 months?
So what happens if you sign for a Mayo league team, between September and January, which is after the Mayo Leaque season has finished, but early enough to be eligible for the Junior Cup. Are you now signed for next seasons Mayo League.
Would the introduction of two forms be a solution. One for Local Soccer, ie Mayo League, and one for Connaught and Junior Cup. This need only be applied to Leagues who play summer soccer.
Forgive me if the dates are incorrect,.
Give me a break!!! UL/AA 16/1 what bookies are these prices from???Quote:
