unless there is a big thaw I'd be surprised to see the game go ahead
last season they were playing opposite the Clarion hotel in sligo town, they have dressing rooms not sure about showers thoughQuote:

i cant see many games going ahead once this snow and ice thaws the pitches will turn to mush. have any of ye inspected your pitch?
Our pitch normaly drains very quickly, the problem might be for us at the weekend is that we have a U12 and U14 Connaught cup matches at home on Saterday at 12 and at 2 as both these games were postponed a couple of weeks ago away from home.Quote:

Any reports from around the grounds?
Cant see many games going ahead in Sligo, most pitches are still covered in snow/ice and although there is a bit of a thaw at the moment, it is unlikely that the ground under the covering of snow/ice will thaw in time for Sunday even if the covering melts. Whats the situation in other counties?? are they as well as to call off all matches or will theytry and squeeze a few in??Quote:

Daft decision taken. Pitches will be well ready. TOday is only friday and the temperatures well up.Quote:

All Conn Cup games are on but Sligo/Letrim have called theirs off so no games if you are away in sligo.
How can pitches be playable in Galway, Mayo, And Roscommon but Sligo not? Because they got excited had a bit of premature Ejac and called them off on Friday?? Such Bull!
i think sligo were too premature with the temperatures up yesterday and today all pitches will have thawed out sligo just decided too early i think most teams have had a look at pitches in mayo and knew they would be playable. so we are looking forward to balinasloe coming over west and hope it will be a good game
Any results
Celtic 2-1 SAndF
OLBC beat City Utd 4-2, a big shock....
4th round draw:
Westport v Corrib Rangers
Shiven v Manulla
Dunmore v Ballyhaunis
East v St Patricks
Castlebar v Ballyhane
The Sligo/Leitrim teams still in the FAI are due to play the 2nd Jan, 9th Jan are the Con Cup ties that were called off

fatboyslim,
post #59 on page 3 has a link to the draw. I just posted the ties where both teams are known.
What happened City United? OLBC are a Division 3 Galway side. Were they missing the whole team?Quote:
