Yeah well we have a couple of important games coming up home to corofin and away to bridge celtic so it'll be interest to see how we are in two weeks time. Have Ennis Town lost players this season? After going unbeaten all last season they've already dropped a few points, saying that they are still unbeaten but narrowly beaten lifford and drawing to tage and avenue. Newmarket be fav for the league this year I'd think.Quote:

i hope you do prove me wrong and dont struggle to stay up and in case you think i am having a go at olympic see start of thread were i tipped ye to do well in premier and to suprise a few people ..plus it would be good for shannon football to have ye playing in the premier league as much as possible.[/QUOTE]
We all get things ridiculously wrong some times , dont worry about it OG -
Would have taught WR would be good enough for the A team , alot younger and more energetic that RQ IMO
Jeez lads, there's some fascination with Shannon Olympic on this thread!!!!
Re Ennis Town, they are still unbeaten so they cant be that bad but are missing a lot of players through GAA. Although it is good to see some GAA players like Ciaran Russell make a return for them. Newmarket look very strong this year with their new signings.

Surely you have to throw the bridge in there aswel :)Quote:

I have to take back my comment and have to agree with that younglawd - just heard Avenue have lost another player to a NOF team - bit early in the season for the wheels to be coming off
Pa wilson is gone to lifford and I here david mc carthy is goin to Newmarket
They've lost another player after Colin Smyth? Even if they dont sign anyone else I cant see Newmarket losing the league. Avenue have 3/4 very good players but they are lacking in comparison to other teams and have a small squad. Ennis Town and Avenue will battle for second and third and Bridge to improve again after keeping Darren Murphy.
Is Russell playing this year ?
C'mon Mastermind, is it true??Quote:

all is obviusly not well in the avenue camp
jesus crusher must be offering the sun moon and stars down there, he was tapping them up for long enough
clean sweep in clare so for them this year at a minimum
Strange going on's at Avenue this season all right, Paddy o' Malley AND Barry Nugent playing for the B team eventhough they had plenty subs togged , must be desperate to win some kind of silverware, if the A team are in such bother.Maybe Mastermind could shed some light on all this ????
Crusher has worked his magic.
Mastermind is gone to ennis town as well

Newmarket won the league 2 seasons ago with primarily Newmarket players. Whats changed now that such an overhaul is required.
Also whats become of the bitter Avenue Newmarket rivalry?
Good points but I think crusher while he would like to win stuff domestically I think he is trying to win an fai or munster junior.. If they do well in these cups then there will be plenty of game time for all these players.. you have to commend crusher for being so ambitious and hopefully he does well this year.Quote:

Sorry Second but I disagree, these are not club men and as soon as their respective clubs sort themselves out they will leave NC.Quote:

strange move to be honest after 5 games into the league
not as if he didnt win plenty with avenue.
maybe the lure of winning the munster junior and fai was too much
its a sideways move in his career
roll on next sunday
You really think Newmarket are good enough to win a MJC or FAI not a chance
The only people mentioning MJC and FAI are not Newmarket people.Target this year is to regain the league title.Quote:

They won't win an MJC or an FAI.Quote:

Building a squad to win Munster. That was the clincher for the ex avenue players going down the road. They had enough of the local stuff won.
Makes for a interesting season.
Congrats to mick Sheils on OT. Nice guy
That comment makes no sense. .He has been the best player in the county for the last 3 years..Quote:
