Think it was the other way round..8-2 newmarket 7-1 bridge...nonetheless a terrible performance from the whole team, heads dropped after the second goal. Was very impressed with the bridge. Anyway that's football!Quote:

Newmarket worked the ball into some good positions and ended up hitting shots over the bar from the edge of the box.....Quote:

Missing 4/5 players, bringing up 4 from the B team.
What was the team and subs used.. pity ye can't get same 11 out 2 games in a row.. you need that to get a bit of stabilityQuote:

cannot believe that the B team players above were called up for such an important game .. why was steve dolan / eamon o neill / jay regan / Ritchie hanley / conor Neville not called up all better players than the b team players ye had sunday.
I agree old git .. something not right.. I heard they have 3 or 4 different lads on the sideline shouting directions.. that can't help..Quote:

Olympic do have a full squad of players, it may not look it from an outsiders perspective but we are happy with our start to this season (not including the bridge performance). We never expected anything less from newmarket if we had got anything there is a bonus. As I stated at the start of season the goal is to stay up, our cup finals are the games against corofin,tage,lifford,Tulla and bridge celtic. No1 can help the fact that players get injured/gaa of if they are away. With the B team players brought up at the wknd I can only imagine them players were brought up because the B team couldnt afford to lose 3-0 afaik so maybe needed there better players or maybe the other players didn't want to I'm not
sure.
B team.Quote:

Add Add cheeky / leahey / dean power / Dougan / Ian hogan gives you 15 players personally i would not call that a full squad and going to struggle in premier with Only 15 players .. jamie egan / cheeky both injured now as well ?
I think Olympic should easily stay up , but it's a bad state of affairs that a club would allow players to refuse to play for the A team because they 're trying to win the 3rd div league cup, those lads are no good to any club , the A team manager should have first call on all signed junior players A or B , otherwise the club will never progress, well that's my opinion anyway.
I agree but as I said that was the only reason I could think of what happened other then that I haven't a notion so don't hold me on it :pQuote:

Gavin hayes / Jamie martin not the Most reliable lads to turn up , and did Gavin hayes not refuse to go on as a sub last week against the Bridge !!! ... you will need Jimmy to go out poaching again for ye for a few new players ...Quote:

That Jamie Martin fella is gone back to town I believe..
