Pre-season kicks off on Tuesday January 6th, with a trip to face National League side Killarney Celtic in Celtic Park. Becoming something of an annual fixture.

I presume Halwax and Connor will be rotated between the posts during pre-season, although Foley may well start in Killarney next week. At least when the majority of business was done before Christmas, the line-ups should be relatively familiar compared to previous pre-seasons, though there'll doubtless still be the traditional "Trialist 1", "Trialist 2", et cetera in the mix as well!
is there any rivalry between the two clubs legendz?Originally Posted by legendz
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
By all accounts, even though it's a charity game, the tackles were fairly "robust", to put it mildly, last season, with Matt Keane, Graham O'Reilly and Steven McCarthy all wanting to prove a point against their former club, but a number of Kerry players and coaches have come through the Celtic ranks, and Celtic themselves said in a recent interview that their sole focus will be on the National League, with the First Division not a consideration in the foreseeable future, given their current resources.
Wasn’t aware that Celtics intentions were very much focused towards national league and not looking further towards first division down the line. To be fair to them, you have to respect that.
It’s just a pity Munster football was not better structured that has kind of forced them (and Villa) into this situation. If you put the top junior clubs and Munster senior league clubs in one league you would have a serious top division that would generate a lot of interest too. And could feed a good pyramid down to the district leagues in the province also which would allow ambitious clubs flourish as well as everyone finding their level…. Wishful thinking I guess..
