its very easy to go pointing finger and blaming people for this and that, but in reality i would say that no anbody else puts more time and effort into the club.Quote:

the amount of work that fergie puts into the club is unbelievable, he would do anything for the club and i don't know why people are saying he has to go, he has done so much and will continue on doing so much more for the club.Quote:

I think you've just summed up the reign of Mr.G.D at Castlebar Celtic. He underachieved considering the resourses made available to him. His legacy is a tired, disillusioned team lacking in direction, focus and most importantly identity.Quote:

So that means who is front runner :) Declan Kilkellys name has been mentioned in the papers, he would be qualified and capable to do the job ;) (sorry had to steal Brian Cowans line there)Quote:

i tell you one thing he did - he made alot of bad blood with some clubs in the Mayo league - rightly or wrongly - in his approach!
anyhow i hope declan kilkelly gets the jog - nice fellow and knows alot of the young players but will he leave snugboro?
Michael McNicolas is available.......Definetly a front runner in my opinion!!Cannot see Kilkelly takin the job as he left on bad terms afaik!!!Is it true Celtic beat Westport tonight 2-0??Playing some great stuff.
2-0 whipping of Westport, not too bad of a week, 3 games Celtic V Wesport in A, B & C and the only defeat was that of the C team.
From what I saw the Covies look very directionless. Celtic were full of heart and really improved on what I have seen previously. The only doubt I would have maybe the keeper who looked very nervous, he is a young lad so that may take time for him to get confidence but was nailed to his line on more than 1 occasion tonite.
A team managed by Mick & Kevin, ExCiTeD will probably give a better view on the match later as I missed the 1st half.
hard to believe this is the same celtic team that lost to boro and drew with heane fantastic performance from celtic dont know what the caretaker managers said but it had some effect.celtic played with a passion and purpose that has not been there for a whileQuote:

Well if they have to follow it through then thats understandable and if the 2 lads dont want it then thats that then.Quote:

Ballinrobe Town 0 v 1 Westport Utd.
Ballyheane 1 v 1 Snugboro Utd.
Bangor Hibs. 4 v 4 Castlebar Celtic
Claremorris 2 v 0 Iorras Aontaithe
Manulla 1 v 3 Ballina Town
In fairness, whatever sucess G.D had with Celtic during his tenure in charge, losing to Shamrock Rovers I am pretty sure would not be up there among the favourites.Quote:

What game were you at? They did not destroy Westport, look at the game not the result, we gifted you 2 headers, fair enough, we defended terribly and we deserve what we got for going to sleep.Quote:

All you did for most of the game is do what you always do, hoof the ball in the air, I was surprised at how much of this you still do, with all your young players playing in the U20 league last year I was expecting more from you, but no it is the same old stuff.
I am vindicated by what I say in view of your result against Bangor, your team is very poor, all you can hope for is third or fourth place the way you are playing at present.
I agree, but you wont tell those guys.Quote:

any word yet on the new celtic manager??
What's the story with lads leaving Castlebar Celtic???? Tom Kelly mentioned about 4 going now that Dykes has left???
Are they transferring to other clubs or 'retiring'????
neary is going back to s & f next year to so i heard! :DQuote:
