I know they lurk on here. Keith, you must be managing to stay onside. It only took me about four years to teach you. :D
park b are looking unstoppable at the moment, shannon town the only team to take points off them so far. gav lundy seems to be scoring for fun how many has he got so far,?? who were park playing?? town played a very average mungret team, score could have been much higher if people took their chances,
anybody know where i could find the updated league table??? or could someone please post it if possible
Shels are a very good footballing team all look comfortable on the ball and back 4 is very solid.there wont be much between them and park at the end of the season.they have not played each other yet.that should be a good game.having seen both teams play shels look the better team.
Park were playing Parkville at Ballycasey, Parkville were shocking and the home side dominated from start to finish. The scoreline flatters Parkville.
can anybody post an updated league table???

Park AFC are favourites to win the title this season.
Park currently sit at the 3rd of the table, and are expected to enhance their championship credentials with a win at home to Lisnagry at the weekend.
Park can move above Shels in the table if they win their game this week and Shels Cathal O'Shea accepts their arch-rivals are now in the driving seat.
"They're the clear favourites to win the title," said O'Shea. "We're working hard to compete with them and finish above them and we're on course to achieve that.
"We know it's possible for us to win this season but we have to fight to the very end to do so.
"It's obvious that we know all about them. They are full of champions of and they are in the driving seat with the game in hand.
"We know the class they have in their team. They have some of the best players in the world." Including Thomas "Monk" McDade and Dave Magee adds a new attacking demention to the team also, after all he is the current Ballon D'or winner and favourite for FIFA world player of the year. As for young McDade, widely touted as the next Paulo Maldini and also a threat from left back.
played both teams this year and shels are by far the better team.cant wait for them to play each other..
what's happening to holycross??? their A team is bottom of 1B and the B team is bottom of 4A???Quote:

all's not well in the camp so. they had a very good A team a few years back. must have lost a lot of players. saw their A team and B team this season, shocking badQuote:

Yeah they have, i remember when i first played for them six years ago it was against St Micheals of Tipp in a friendly and they won 3-2 playing some great football.Quote:

Like names of players that come to my head are
Micheal Ryan,Kieran Fitz,Scruff,Donal McCarthy (Castle Rovers), John & Liam Mulcahy (Herbertstown) , Liam O'Donoghue (Pallas), John Barry,Niall Riordan and Razor (Croom), Damien Griffin (Australia), Ray Hourigan, Grieg McSporran would have been on any premier team (Scotland), there were two polish lads that were very good but went back to poland and i can name at least 6 or 7 other lads who now play with Killamllock, Knockainey and Bruff.
all these lads and ,i know i have missed least 3 or more, were good solid players and enjoyed playing with them, If they were playing in a team now they would be very hard to beat in my opinion.
This game on this sunday should be a cracking game.shels at home so i think they just might shade it.the team that gets the most points from the two games they will play against each other will win the league

it wont be easy for park to win this league, if we (shannon town) didnt have such a terrible start to this season i believe we would be up around the top, but you never know in football so i wouldnt totally rule out town for promotion,Quote:

In the last few years they implemented at big under age teams and have had a great response, when i played for them firstly, the players that were in the team had played with each other from under age to youths and then junior.. i think this is what has to happen again for holycross so it might take few years but i do expect to see them bringing a good side through in future. :)

holycross at home to shannon town on sunday, is theres the pitch beside that yellow shop??? i think i can remember playing out there, but going on whats being posted it should mean 3 points for town, hopefully shels & park draw so we can claw a few points back on them

Think this game will be a draw or a one nil win to shels
Think town will beat holycross by 3 or 4 if they even show up.parkville were ment to play them in holycross a few weeks ago and only 4 players turned up
Park have a added a few new faces to the team and some quality at that too.
I wouldnt be holding my breath for a Shels win on Sunday, especially having lost their leading scorer.
Then again i wouldnt hold my breath for the game to actually go ahead because of the weather, Shela A have a game at home in the morning too.
who did park sign in the window??? i heard 1 or 2 town players were thinking of transferring to park, but as far as i know nobody has left....
holycross A teams match is postponed because of a tragic death in their parish so i would say the B teams is aswell,
Any fixtures announced for the coming weekend?
Newport v Lisangry (10.30)Quote:

This is updated.
as far as i know the only points park have dropped was a draw at home to shannon town who were the better team that day too, seems to be the story of towns season so far, being the better side but unable to get the results against the top sides in the league. having played park & shels id say park are the better team, younger, better footballers but shels have lots of experience which counts for alot.Quote:

ya, shels are handy but thier right back will cost them goals this season. the same winger for shn town skint him a good few times last sunday "including 2 nutmegs" so they'll have to sort that out. right full also very prone to lunging into tackle when he has no chance of getting the ball.Quote:
