Jaun Pablo what is happening in Ballinrobe? You were a lot of peoples tips for promotion, is it just getting used to the new manager or a transition year? I am pleasently surprised by Glenhest. After relegation they were in danger of slipping but they seem to have steadied the ship.
Division 1 seems to be very interesting this season. I thought Charlestown were going to run away with it but it seems they are stumbling and Manulla B are putting in a run. At the moment everyone else seems to be taking points off each other. I think this one will run to the wire.
The Blue Bombers are on the move in Division One. Great to see. Looking good for Manulla B though but it has opened up. Big weekend coming up and could be very defining.

Thanks mate. Only got the message on Monday. O2 w??????.
Team progressing. Smallish panel means we are not strong throughout the team. Some players have not committed as they said they would. However, except for the first game, we are competing well. Silly mistakes costing us games. Also a little naive when it comes to the physical stuff. I feel the future is bright with a better squad next year. Dont' completely write us off yet. Our home pitch also a problem - too small and too bumpy.
Glenhest Rovers always did well in the second tier following relegation and nearly always got promoted the following season.Quote:

There is a very interesting football link from the FAI website. It is mayo.fai.ie and it is to do with the Mayo Soccer Partnership. On it you can check out your tables, results, fixtures and all the news that affects Mayo football and there will be reports from the Kennedy Cup next week on it. Definitely worth the look. Do NOT type in www. when you are checking it out.
Is it true.Neary wasnt happy when Fitzpatrick follow him to Castlebar celtic.How long until Fitzpatrick jumps again!!!!
I guess you will have to ask Neary but its true to say it wasn't neary first time to jump ship.Quote:

anyone any comments on the current superleague table?
hows it shaping up? whos going to win/ lose?
who will be relegated?
Fahy Rovers lost 3-1 to castlebar
celtic last night in milebush. An early goal and one either side of half time for Celtic secured it.
Joe keane was outstanding for Fahy and surely deserves to get a Mayo call up soon.
WAS WATCHING THE CASTLEBAR TOWN V CHARLESTOWN GAME - IT WAS A CRACKER. one stage town were down 3-1 and fought back,they only had two subs,seemingly a major injury crisis in the club. They relay very heavily on their keeper and tall red head in defence.They impressed with their will to win,on another day charlestown would have torn them apart.:eek:
so folks, why has things gone so quite? alot has gone on over the last few weeks and no one seems to be talking about anything??
looks like ballina could do it this year, unless westport can turn things around. celtic have alot of ground to make up, it could be a bit much for them. not lookin good this year for S&F, losing big name players makes a huge difference. other teams no looking good, ballyglass & manulla.
Stevie Ryan is to join Athlone Town today. Big loss to Celtic
Best of luck to Stevie up in Athlone. big loss to Celtic
Can't say i'll be sorry to see him go but he has done very well for himself, a bit tempramental but a very good midfielder nonetheless. best of luck from all your 'mates' in westport!
Town keeper is very big, very agile and very good. The big red head is a good player who sprays the ball wide and rarely seems to be caught for pace. Young Maughan is also a good passer, pretty fast. He could do with working on his fitness. :p Nice team who have been good to us since deciding to join the league.Quote:

His brother is the centre half who was a striker for Castlebar B team for the last few years I think.
He has not signed yet, few lose ends to tie up from what I hearQuote:

No comment on Celtic - dont know enough about them but Town are a good local team. Their keeper is very good.
Its town who have turned him from a striker to a centre half. From the games I have ever seen the lad play he was always up front and I think that 3 or 4 years ago he was top scorer for the C or B team.
I was at your game against Partry there, who are the 2 lads who play up front for ye, one has bleached hair I think, where has Jordan gone to? He was due to make a come back for ye this year according to himself but I did not see him that day against Partry.
Did ye have a player called up for U17? Where was he playing that day?
Can ye hold out for Promotion?
I don't want to sound to hard on Cross Celtic even though they have just joined the Mayo League.
But The Mayo League has standards when it comes to pitches and to say the lease I was very disapointed to see how poor the condition of Cross football pitch was in.
It looked nothing like a pitch with thristles growing everywere grass looked like a medow. apart from a nice set of goals and cornor flags I would not have reconised it.
Now the league its seem to have lowered its standard to allowing a club to play in these conditions.
I would just hope over the comming days that you might get out there and cut the pitch and maintain the high standards that we have maintained over the years in promoting good pitches.
As I said dont want to be hard on ya, but for everyone sake just take a good look.
We were let down with original pitch. Farmer let us use the field at Knock. However GOOD NEWS.
Problem rectified. New pitch obtained at Glencorrib village community sportsground. First game commencing 2 July vrs Swinford. The old pitch actually worked against us. Try to get a pitch in a GAA dominated rural area. Not easy. Fair play to Mayo league and Glencorrib Community Pitch trustees.
Had ye to buy a pitch Sinabhuil? I can imagine how hard it is alright, the GAA have a local lotto there already do they? So I imagine it is hard to creep in on that!
Best of luck with it. I am sure it can only get easier!
What is happening in Mayo football? Has everyone lost interest? No one seems to be posting on these forums, the soccerbot tables are not being updated and they don't have nearly half as much data as they used to carry (top scorers and club stat breakdowns) and the teletext is notoriously slow to update.
Are the league committee just not bothered informing the public of the progress of the leagues. I know lads in Austalia and elsewhere who rely on Soccerbot (or used to) to keep them informed of our clubs results and standings. I know that results are e-mailed to members of the clubs but this doesn't help the rank and file or the fans.
This forum has become very muted with a distinct lack of debates (not insults or verbal attacks, there is a difference). At one time it was being paid attention to by the league and I am sure it made some rethink strategy but again that I am sure is not the case any more.
Come on everyone there is still a lot of football being played out there and a lot happening and if any of the league management committee are reading this update soccerbot and keep it updated.:mad:
All the information you want on Mayo soccer is on the new Mayo site with loads of information on results fixtures. It is brilliant. You can get into it through mayo.fai.ie You dont put in www
I agree. mayo.fai.ie is very good but the forumites needs to come out of hibernation here. The main talking point is the departure of Steve Ryan form Castlebar Celtic to Athlone Town.
New pitch - a win - Afterwards Phaze playing great rock music outdoor in the sun at the Riverside Inn - Good day to be a Cross Celtic man!
Castlebar Celtic (superleague) beats Urlaur (division 2) by a lone goal. Any reports on this match. When we played Urlaur they were superb. Great tactical awareness and good subs with a good manager (despite what some Urlaur players think he is a good manager).
Any reports on the match.
Has anyone got the draw for the Quarter Finals of the Aib Cup????
Teams left:
1.Castlebar Celtic
2.Erris Utd
3.Westport Utd
4.Glenhest/Ballina Town - not sure who won this game
5.Straide + Foxford
6.Claremorris
7.Castlebar Town

Goog luck any way.
Try and get your own ground if you can rather than rely on some other group.:)
I can understand your unhappy with the league but what can 5 members of a league do,with all the other jobs they are tied up with.Quote:

Soccerbot was got so the league could put its fixtures together and tables even though Jd is been paid enough to provide what you require
You could offer yourself to work on the Mayo League and give them a dig out while others are swaning off around around europe.
