Bridge are around 7/1.Bunratty started at 15s but are now 12/1 shot.Moher are 6/1.Mountshannon are around 18/1 and Avenue are 6/1Quote:

corofin won the cup last 2 years on merit beating premier teams along the way... but then why are they still in first division .. looks like maybee not good enough or consistant enough to get into preimer league ..:ball:Quote:

In my opinion there is not a huge difference between these divisions,everytime a prem team play a division 1 side they always find it difficult,the way your talking i think you thinking of limerick prem and 1a thats a big difference but not the clare league even doh its improving:rolleyes:Quote:

As for a hat trick of Cup wins, I cant see it happening this year, as surely either Moher, Newtown, Avenue or the Bridge must be fancied.
prem teams usualy get a fired up cup match against 1st division teams who want to prove they are as good as preimer teams on the day... but will add if a 1st division team is good enough / consistant enough they should be getting promoted and staying in preimer league ...Quote:

I agree we need to get into the premier to be considered a serious force. In the play off game last year we weren't up for it and were well beaten. It will be very difficult to win 3 in a row as we are no longer a surprise package. I would have thought we would be longer odds than 6/1.

disagree with you there,seen newtown play a few times this season and totally different team and system,even there sub-bench has alot of quality,bit too early to be writing newtown off,they will win silverware this season if they have there full team.:ball:Quote:

You think it has anything to do with there Under21 team..? Surely it wouldnt have that big of an effect on there junior team,right?
i think most of there junior team are there 21s team so it would have effected them alot playing for both teams:ball:Quote:

One thing is for certain, The Boss is keepin a low profile lately ain't he! :)
