Never, They had lots of shots but most of them outside the box and Toldo had them all covered..The first goal was also controversial, the ball came off the bar and straight back down then out, the ref gave the goal even though he couldnt see it and also if he did see it there was no line on the goal line, I think it was harsh of him to give it although it was a goal from where I was standing....the second goal was also dodgy....Your striker played it forward and it hit off of one of our defenders and fell straight to one of your players straight through he went on to hit the post before it was followed up.

Id swap points with them if they wanted. ;)

Star were the best team we played so far even though we had a weakened team, I think they will move on up.

I dissagree, the back 4 are very solid and hard to break down, they double up alot when defending and credit to there wingers for that, they are good up front also, they hold up the ball well.

I dont think we have dropped too many points............when you consider we had some very important players missing for us (after the Hill Celtic game), and had to travel to Cappamore and Herbertstown.

We have 4pts after 4 games and although it doesnt sound great, we are 9pts behind 2nd place with 2 games in hand, so to answer your question, No I dont think we have dropped too many points already (especially when any of the teams in this league are more than capable of beating the others).

There was nothing dubious about Mungrets 2 goals, perfectly good goals. The ref was a bit away from the first goal that hit the crossbar and then went behind the line. Mungret did have at least 8 chances to score, but only took two.

Well I told him ye were good actually better than Mungret from the games we played against you both but they were both away for us and Shannons pitch was harder to play on given the conditions on the day, Shannon wont fall away neither will Mungret IMO unless they both lose key players.
So no busting them when ye play them Abbeyvale. lol.

I agree, it did go behind the line but from where the ref was standing there was no way he could tell and also there was no goal line for him to make his judgement.......
We had chances, ye were better than us on the day but I think ye were happy to go away with the 3 points given the chances we missed. ;)

Lads Mungret have the league won and thats a fact!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No team will get within 15pts of them
Geraldines are 2nd i think and they are absolutely abysmal
Shannon i havent seen so i cant comment
I reckon its between Prospect and Star or Shannon for 2nd
The rest of the teams dont even deserve a mention there so bad

How do make out geraldines are absolutely abysmal
shows you how much you know we have beaten both prospect (home) and star (away) and we still have to play shannon home and away and mungret wont win the league by that much so we will see at the end of the season there is no tropheys given out in october

i dont think for a second that the hill celtic side we played were poor...i know they have vastly inproved from the start of the season...and 4-2 is hardly a "lucky" win....ya we were poor against newport but every team has an off day...

It was star/summerville/herbertstown/cappamore and geraldines who beat a poor Hill celtic team,since we got our players we have played shannon and mungret,two tough games to play while were figuring out who and where to start,the second half of the season we will be capable of beating any team once we settle considering we have star/shannon/mungret/geraldines and summerville at home

Gerry, Im only trying to rise you bud!!!

But IMO I just think ye will fall away.

Top 5 will be (in no particular order), Mungret, Shannon, Star, Summerville & Dines.

Geraldines are a good side, not the best we have played but they are far from abysmal and could be there or there abouts.....

They didnt struggle to beat a poor Hill Celtic side they did well to beat a Hill Celtic side that have only now come together and got a team....it was Star who beat a very poor Hill Celtic side.

We dont have Summerville at home they beat us at Hogan Park, I agree with all the rest.

Super Rovers

personally dont think mungret will get promoted. they are the same every year good at home but the minute you get them outside mungret they fall apart. think after christmas they will fall away when the away matches come thick and fast
