call them crap fairly obvious... seen them a couple of times this year a few good players & a lot of posers who think they are ronaldo's / ronaldino always seem to lack heart & bottle in a tough game... but to get beat 9-0 in a cup final is a disgrace for any team... i'm sure a few senior lads in newtown must be very disapointed by this performance and if this is the future of newtown it dont look to good..:Quote:

Congrats to the Lifford Youths and Congrats to Bridge Celtic... the league table never lies... well deserved winners!

Ya Newtown did win the 17's league, but most of this team was made up of a very strong 16's team. u16's lost both cup final and league playoff to moher after extra time. Youth are an average side but will be a lot stronger next year. Not an excuse but 4/5 of the players had played a match already that day for the school and clearly not physically able for a second game. Comes down to priorities!!!! Just to clarify it was an area final not the clare cup so maybe was not as valued, i dont know!!!!!!
1.Don't think that i heard once this year that they were a great team.
2.Too many shapers that think they are great.
3.Some players on the team,Football (soccer) is their second sport.
4.Some players turn up when ever they want.
5.some players don't listen cause they already know everything there is to know about the game.
6.Manager can only do his best with what he has.
7.This must be the biggest defeat ever in the history of the Newtown youths.
8.I feel sorry for the players that did care about this team.
9.And the part timers in the team should be ashamed in the result.
The youths have had an ear-full off people saying these area cup finals are micky mouse trophys that dont mean anything at all,i dont know if they are but this is what they have being filled with,so the lads pressumed there league was already over and went out the night before this area final,if this was the clare cup final,there would have being a different attitude about this game,old git to say that the future of newtown dont look good after a area final is bitter,you must have got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning,the future couldnt look anybetter with those 17s and youths players,quality all over the pitch,Quote:

This is my opinion.
That is a terrible attitude... young lads will always get their heads filled with crap from older fellas... Its the way the world works unfortunately. I've no doubt some of them are fine footballers but surely they should have more sense... a final is a final... I played in a youths area cup a few years back that had more bite in it than the clare cup final I played in a few weeks before!Quote:

you're right smelly feet,i'd agree with you. A final is a final and having a cupat the end of the year is a lot better than having absolutely nothing at all. I know some of the Newtown lads and they were really up for the game and would have loved to have won one of the area finals that they were in especially the one vs. Newmarket.Quote:

I can see your disappointed seen as your a newtown man, 9-0 is steep in any match,but im sticking to my word that these young lads are being told that these finals are just a bit of fun,you know yourself one player tells another player lets go for drinks,next minute the whole team are out because they are told the match doesnt mean anything big,thats what young lads will think and for the shaper thing we all thought we were **** hot at youths with are white boots and hair doos and all the girls from school coming down to watch us thats all part and parcel of schoolboys smellyfeet.Quote:

If they didnt value them why did they bother turn up for the 2 games
not based on 1 area final result.. based on a few games i saw them play this year... if they could not even stay in the night before an area final (not to dedicated ) probally only hope of some silverware this season.. also how many of the current youth team played with a team this year .. cannot comment on 16's / 17 's as i have not seen them play ,,Quote:

If they want to go out drinking the night before, let them off but there was not one from Newmarket out on the beer the night before or any Lifford or Turnpike lads on the beer the nite before their finals. Drinkin the night before a game will get them nowhere, waste of their time and the lads who didnt go, and wasting their managers' time. Dont bother waste time and money entering a team so. Drinking nites before games wont be tolerated at junior level in Newtown will it?hardly. So I'd say the Newtown youths are delighted
We'll see if the Newtown JUNIORS treat their area cups as 'just a bit of craic' so and go on the drink the night before.
yeah so what? fair play, ye won the 17s league and did well in the 16s but Newmarket had only 4 players in their last year of youths on the squad,the rest of them are underage for next year again and 2 of the lads who started against Newtown are UNDER 14Quote:
