so lets see who is still talking the talk next monday.....
Never posted before because I just used the site to keep in touch with Clare league while away... but felt I had to say something!!:mad:
Will boss please stop going on about how great lifford are... I'm a Lifford man through and through (Ten years last year but this was all underage) but couldn't be involved with either junior squads this year due to work/college commitments. I hope Lifford win the Premier (and the 3rd) but if boss really is a Lifford player (and I doubt it!!) he should realise talking trash is not going to help... It'll just make everyone want to beat Lifford more!!
People, especially John O' Neill, have put huge time and effort into bringing Lifford forward... So Boss, stop bringing down he clubs reputation.

Well what does that say about Star considering Lifford are 5 points ahead of Avenue in the League.Quote:

Avenue were very lucky to beat us and they admitted that themselves after the game, and remember we are a first division side, so what does that say for Avenue??Quote:

I agree with what you say about John O'Neill but someone would want to tell him that some of his members are not fully versed in what this is all about: SPORTSMANSHIP!!!!
Ah come on now!!!! Take off the "Star Rover's Tinted Glasses" and look at the facts...Quote:

Unlucky alright by the sounds of things:D :D :D
was the boss not talking about getting one over on mountshannon last week? so wat happened ye? i dont think your as good as the avenue or plenty of other teams! but we ll see at end of season how much bottle ye really have! ye wont get a handy 3 points off newmarket anyways!

Dont get me wrong I am not making little of Avenue, I'm just clearly stating that if a first division side can dominate against them then they wont have much chance if they come up against good premier opposition elsewhere.

was that Opta stats:rolleyes:
70% of the posession and ye still lost, as Tommy has already said go back to 1a and have a think about it. :)Quote:

as for abbeyvale, the match sunday was not dominated by ye one bit! we were always in control of it and gave ye some very soft goals! we played terrible at the back and made some bad switches. im sorry but would not say that ye dominated for more than 10 mins! ye were a sound bunch though penalties is no decider! we were lucky in the end but i do hope ye do well in yer division!
FYI ... the boss is not a lifford club member and does not represent lifford. i have been asked to post this message by john O'Neill lifford club secretary.Quote:

I am a current lifford player and i dont hide my identity from anybody. so boss if i find out who you are .... god help ya.
hey townie, still trying to rise the newmarket lads... well i have news for you buddy... this thread will be printed and read to the lifford players before the game next week... i can tell u now that i will be up for every game and i'm sure my team mates will find inspiration from your comments.Quote:

i was only answering back to the person that ye are trying to claim isnt part of yer club when he clearly must be! he was on boasting about roll on newmarket! just reminding him that he said the same last week! to be honest i couldnt care less wat you show lifford! you wont see us gloating anyways! but im dead right when i say ye will have it tough gettin 3 points off newmarket! nothing wrong with saying that is there! or do you think it will be easy too like your partner that wont identify himself!
well tonie just in case you didn't understand the first time... the boss is not part of the lifford club and is not a lifford player.Quote:

also i don't have a partner on this thread , i give my opinion and that is all please don't try to pair me with that idiot, i enjoy this thread and the talk about the games so please don't ruin it for me
:ball:
m'shn v bridge celtic
First of 3 six pointers this weeekend. Mountshannon have bagged 4/6 pts in last two games where Bridge Celtic form has dipped of late. Both teams will be looking for at least 9 pts from their remaining games for survival but I predict they will share the spoils on Sunday.
newmarket v lifford
A lot of hype about this one. Newmarket will hope they can put their 'too good to go down' tag to bed and reclaim the form that put Newtown to the sword in December. Lifford deserve to be where they are at present but I just think this is more of a 'must win' game for Celtic. Newmarket to win 2-1 but Lifford still my tip for honours at end of season. Crucial that Newmarket keep their 11 players on the pitch or else Lifford have the quality to punish.
cratloe v rinnanna
Another 6 pointer. Two different styles of play meet in Lee's Road on Sunday. Field may suit Rovers more than Cratloe. 1 nil Rovers win.
newtown v bunratty
Massive derby for both teams. Bunratty have to put points on the board and I think they will have more fire in the bellies than Newtown on Sunday. Newtown are only a couple of wins from safety where as Bunratty will be adopting the same 'must win' mentality as the Newmarket boys on Sunday. Bunratty by 3 to 2.
newtown v bunratty
Massive derby for both teams. Bunratty have to put points on the board and I think they will have more fire in the bellies than Newtown on Sunday. Newtown are only a couple of wins from safety where as Bunratty will be adopting the same 'must win' mentality as the Newmarket boys on Sunday. Bunratty by 3 to 2.[/QUOTE]
I thought derby games were played by teams from the same town or parish has somone moved the boundaries:)
newmarket v lifford

Thanks again Boss for getting the lads up for this game. Roll on the village
Ahh they are close enough and it is always played like a derby!
It has and always will be a derby in our eyes anyway....Quote:

[QUOTE=Prem Rep!]m'shn v bridge celtic
m'snn win.. they have hit form at right time and i fancy they will avenge the defeat in bridgetown
newmarket v lifford
no comment.
cratloe v rinnanna
Draw
newtown v bunratty
newtown win... fancy newtown to be the dark horses in the premier this year.
:ball:
Could be right with the addition of Davy Wall... On his day he could beat any team on his own.Quote:

Newtown have to be ranked as outsiders to do it. As it would mean taking maximum points from our last 6 games. Tall order especially with our Jeckyl & Hyde form. Good signs of improvement in recent league matchs so we'll keep pluggin away & the see how we go. No matter what happens we'll have a say where the title goes, with Lifford,Avenue & bridge utd all to play. Should be an interesting finale all round:ball:Quote:

wonder if paddy powers would start givin odds on weekend games!
i think there could be some mysterious betting patterns developing if they did! it might become tempting to start scoring og,s for a few grand!
I fancy Olympic to win... Have not seen much of Moher in the last 2 years but Olympic are strong. On their day the will handle anyone in that division.Quote:

Sh*t, thats a lot of dusting. We better start right away :)

(mistake to win the game)

There was a lot of mistakess being made by defences, but you could put that dwn to rustiness. But from an olympic perspective it was good to see young stouty ooops i mean scotty get a run out.
Good player but hasn't really settled anywhere. Anyone know where he is gone. A bit late in the season to be transferring???
Who are these 5 mystery players??This should be good!!!Quote:
