Basically scan your crest and save it as jpeg. Then after you scan your crest, you send it on to ifgrounds@gmail.com and A face will get them sorted out !!

Any problems, please pm A face.

Cannot get better than that!!

Greetings from the Clayton Square Shopping Centre in Liverpool and good morning to you all. Hear that Eoghan McHale is awaiting results of a scan for his dislocated shoulder and could be out for a couple of months, depending on the extent of the injury. The U.14s lost 2-0 to Salthill Devon in the Lions Club tournament on Wednesday. Westport could have been 3-0 up before Salthill took command of the game but the better side won it out at the end.

Any football gossip from the 'Port?

Looking at the FAI Junior Cup draw, if we had beat Porto, we would have made the long trip to Buncrana to take on Lagan Harps!!

Our Derry friends like Stevie Wilkinson have missed out on a short trip to see the Red and Black play and to meet up with the wonderful Covey Army!!

Anyhow, June 19th 2005 in Buckley Park, Kilkenny is something we can always treasure.

Heard absolutely nothing in the story, I'm afraid. The only football gossip in Liverpool is on the old reliable www.foot.ie.

Is Joe Lawless suspended for the Connacht Cup. I read he played in the FAI Junior Cup. Just as well Utd were beaten as I though that his suspension was to be served in the Junior Cup. As per usual great thinking by the Mayo league suspending the Leagues best player when his team is playing away in the Junior Cup. Utd should win handy enough on Sunday. Best of Luck to the largest travelling away support in Junior Soccer.

**Proud cove** · 09/01/2007, 3:21 PM

Portmarnock under appeal which probably means he's unable to play next weekend. By the way,the Mayo FA have some history when it comes to issuing suspensions to Westport players ahead of big games, the 'replay' against Carew comes to mind!

Dear Concerned,
Where have you been all this time,since when did Westport have a club? I would have thought a club was where a team,

could call there own ground, like all our big clubs in Mayo. Long gone are the days where you are a sitting tenent in Mayo. To be fair they did try to get some field but were shot down, which of course was unfair due to Captains of the industrailist. Where you there shouting from the roof tops to help them.
To be fair to the committee they are hard working bunch,of course being well paid?( only joking) who are you to jug=dge who is Qualified? they would have to be, at leased have a level one coaches on there staff.
regards to youths playing junior football, There are rules.
1.youth players must sign consent from on reg by his parents before he can play
2. he must have passed his 16th Birthday.
By the way only members of the club can vote at A.G.M.
I strongly advise you to get a life or leased help to guide the club in the direction you feel it should be taking.

yours in sport

Reno.
