to be honest with you its looking in mungrets favour to win it out. looking at the tables with shannon so many games back i think they could nip ahead of dines. dont think svile have got what it takes. 2 center halves against shannon didnt want to know bout any balls comin down on top of them. shannon could have routed them for more if gerry kelly was playin up front. i think going on preformance against mungret star will well be up ther too for promotion. think dines will run out of steam.
think mungret to win it out and a dog fight between shannon and star for 2nd

How are you tipping Star to be in with a shout? Have they made some signings? Has to be between Dines & Shannon for second.

still think star or shannon over dines, thats just my opion. think dines are gettin away lightly lately started off excellant and dont get me wrong still flying high but lately results such as scraping past hill and cappamore, throughin away 3 points against shannon and summervile. think myself star have alot more to give as i said earlier think dines will die away come evening matches

lately scraping past cappamore? 4th of october
throwin away three points AWAY to shannon having missed a penalty for two nil,they then scored in stoppage time for 1-1, yet still u think they'll pip us
One nil down to summerville missing 7 and got a draw luckily at home.
unbeaten in the league since the opening game away to mungret of which around 6 of the current team weren't signed...
obviously i'm gonna disagree bout us not coming in the top 2 but i think star will come back into it...shannon need seven points from 4 games in hand, 4 tough games includin mungret sunday, they'll do very well to get 9pts from 12

Have to disagree with you there pal, I dont think Star will come back into it this season simply because they cant get their strongest eleven out for most games (for different reasons).

I would have to fancy Mungret to win the league and second spot to go to any of Shannon, Dines or Summerville with Star finishing maybe 5th or 6th, with Star maybe having a major say in who gets promoted!!!!!!

croom vs dines called off, mungret 1-0 shannon. Poor game...shannon deserved a draw

very poor game alright..pitch wasn't in the best nic for football which made it a very scrappy game. best 3pts mungret will get all season..they were on the backfoot from the 5th minute when they scored.shannon will feel very hard done by. 28 from 30 pts for mungret...

Agreed, it was a poor performance by Mungret, defending for most of the game but stuck it out and got a great 3points. Shannon played to their strengths with long throw, high balls into the box to their players who are mostly well over 6ft. Mungret just couldn't get hold of the ball and play it on the ground which is the only way to hurt shannon. Not many teams will take points off shannon this season, it was just a stroke of luck that mungret found the back of the net and you need that bit of luck when you are playing a big physical team like shannon.

No we've played 8 home games, 2 away.
We've travelled oot to croom twice only for the pitch to be unplayable and yesterdays game was switched to our pitch for some reason. Was yer pitch unplayable or something? We're gonna have a tough 2nd round with a lot of away games.
On yesterdays game I thought we played well below par. Maybe this was because of the early goal we got but i'm not sure. We were defending constantly for the last 20 minutes. We should have had a penalty in the second half though from one of our counter attacks. The guy who takes yer throw ins really slows the game down, he takes an unbelievable amount of time drying the ball every single time even if its headed straight back to him!
