Partry Ath are a decent side and their position on the table is not a true reflection of how well they can play. Best of luck for the rest of the season - Ciaran Hennelly is a massive loss - how is his ankle?

Still no news of when he will be back. We are really missing him in the middle. The injuries and work commitments of our experienced players are hitting us hard but the only way is up as they say. I was talking to him today and fair play he did say it went off his hand so I take that one back. I think after seeing a few of the teams in the division that Westport and Swinford will be seriously pushing for the top not discounting Ballyglass as we haven't met them yet.

Yes we have seen both ballyglass and swinford and Id they they should pull away soon, with Westport leading the chasing pack

Oh the rock from the parish of the backs speak :p - I always said ye (Conn Rangers) will be in the mix and i stand by that!

The last few years Swinford have constantly been in strong positions in the league so they have earned the right to be mentioned as 'pack leaders' but based on the games against Killala I don’t know why. Killala are not particularly strong this year but yet Swinford didn’t cause them too much trouble a few weeks ago (result 2-2). If it wasn’t for a gammy penalty and a sloppy corner Killala would have won the game. Even last year Swinford didn’t create too much from open play and if I remember it was only 1-0 and 2-0 losses. Now on the other hand - teams like Partry, Ballyglass and Westport always cause Killala much more trouble and in my opinion are more superior to Swinford (on the pitch). It’s just funny how the league positions don’t really reflect this, especially for Partry.

Big game in swinford it will be interesting who comes out on top, hopefully ballyglass go easy on our senior team this week, weve alot of injuries :D

Urlaur 1- 6 Killala
Goals by Hefo and Giggs gave us a 1-2 lead at ht, pace and counter atacking saw us go on in the second half, with another goal by Hefo, a og and 2 goals by Richie. Sorry Con Hawk did not know the U17's match was on. Thanks lads for the good wishes, but we are not getting carried away, finished the match with 3 u18's, taking 1 game at a time. A lad that played for us at underage has came back for us this season for his first season at junior level, having a great season. Masive game this Sunday with a home match against Ballyglass, be a good indication of where we are at this moment.

Yeah we have struggled to put points on the board so far and have let a few games slip that we have had control, such is football and hopefully we can get a run going soon to try and rescue things before too much of a gap opens up.

Maximus the swinford team is set up to win games, they aren't set up to play nice expansive football, they've 3 clean sheets in 4 games.... The table never lies partry may be down their due to injuries but it's early days yet 14 games to go

Fair play to Swinford they played well and will be in and around the reckoning at the end of the season but hopefully the return match will be a different result.

What about the dog ate your homework 😄. Swinford were the better team on the day and every player gets bangs and knocks during games so that no excuse. From what I hear Swinford were missing a couple of lads due to injury but they just got on with it.. Spilt milk and all that 😃

Thank you Swinford FC. There is having a bit of crack and there is being a smart a@$e. If you don't know what you are talking about then don't bother. I had an opinion on the game and am free to express it and the Swinford lads had their say which was fair enough but none of us were as you say making excuses. Talk about what you know don't just spend your time trying to stir s@$t with inane comments.

Were you at the game? Did you see the match that you seem to be such an expert on? I was giving reasons of why I thought that Partry didn't win the match and Swinford disagreed with some of my opinions which is fair enough. You seem to be trying to create arguments where there is none just to have as you say a bit of "crack". The definition of an excuse is simply put as a lie to hide failings whereas a reason is an explanation for a series of events which is what I was giving. If you want to brand me as a liar then when I was just giving an opinion then I don't think your views are worth listening to and are as pointless as your supposed sense of humour.
