And yes we lost to Summerville and to Kilmallock, so what??? They're premier teams
I dont play with anyone ladQuote:

Lankyboy last season ye lost 7/8 games in 1a and dropped some silly points,not good enough if ye want to go upQuote:

I agree we were poor last year, there is no denying that. But I honestly think we have improved from last year. Couple of new faces. New manager. New pitch. New sense of optimism.Quote:

How many games did Geraldines lose last season? Where did they finish?Quote:

Agree with you, does anyone know if they are playing their home matches in the Green or Rathuard.Quote:

If I had to tip two teams at the minute to go up it would be Granville and Geraldine's, but as I said it should be a very interesting league this season :ball:
Jamie from Cals ya? Nice player. Darren Young??Quote:

Never ever predict one's own fortunes. It is doesn't do you any good my friend.Quote:

And if you are basing your opinion on how a team did last season then that's even more idiotic because nearly every club gets new players so that argument makes no sense!
Basing an opinion on last year is perfectly reasonable considering you already stated that ye have kept nearly all, if not all of yer players from last season. And whatever new players there are, take time to bed in. So stop getting bad just because someone doesnt believe ye will get promoted. He is entitled to his opinion, just like you are yours...
Pike B will be stronger than people think I reckon. Fairview B will be good with a lot of young players in the squad for the year.
Going to be very tight the whole way through, very hard to predict who will go down. All about getting a good start.
Shannon Town V Geraldines 2
