get a grip .. a lot of current preimer players probally played a bit of b team football at some stage and will play it again ... and must add some of the current preimer players should still be playing b team football .. so don't knock it some clubs do treat it very serious and unfortunatly some others don't. but without b team football a lot of clubs would not exist :eek:Quote:

Another beauty from Planners...:DQuote:

With all due respect Planners, you're talking through you're hole. I've been playing on our "B" team for the last 8 years or more and i have also played with our "A" team. I have won 3 medals with our "B" team and 1 with our "A" team. Some "B" teams are better than some of the "A" teams in this league.Quote:

planners ... a medal is a medal wheter its for preimer / 1st division / 3rd division a team / b team / c team .. you still have to earn it ..Quote:

a lot of so called clubs out their are just surviving on poaching players of other clubs or getting unhappy players joining from other clubs.. nothing better than having a good club set up with a & b teams supporting each other and helping their clubs grow & progress..:ball:
agree with old git..

Ya, our B team have beaten our A team. For the last 2 years when there is a break in the league because of unplayable pitches, our B team have played our A team in a "challenge" game and the B team have won both times. They were competitive games because neither team wanted to lose to the other. Bragging rights and all that.Quote:

Yeah there was 2 games in Doora last weekend so lg decided Cassidy Park was the best option.Quote:

So a draw will see Roscommon thru. Clare need to win. Best of luck to them.
According to Clare FM Clare lost 3-2.....They were winning 2-1 at half time...
Sounds like there is something wrong with ye'r A team if the B team is better? Surely the A team are better?? what team is it may i ask?Quote:

B team definitely capable of challenging most teams on their day, They ran Lifford close in the Munster Junior this year and Lifford comfortably beat our A side.
Did anybody see the Bunratty v Kilkishen game? 4-3 to Bunratty.
Given that they have been played on the Astro and not a pitch the B team must have a bit of football in them so and its not all about bone-crunching tackles and "ugly" soccer?Quote:

I agree the ref did a good job. Kept good control of the game. Game could have gone either way but young Shane Meehan up front was the difference. He had 3 scored by ht.Quote:
