Ive met Stevie Alot of times when the spotlight wasnt on him as i followed the LOI and dont forget he went to snugboro N.S and people knew we had 2 stars there. Anto Heally and Stevie.Thats a story 4 another day but A/c to the 12th man ill just say this. If stevie Gets the same treatment as he did in Conway Park last week.............. Well its a discrace 4 mayo soccer that jealousy is still a factor...... look at the mayo team.
Well Done Yohan And the Boys

You "heard" Stevie Gavin was kicked round the pitch on Sunday. I presume you weren't at the match?
You chose to rely on hearsay in order to launch an attack on Mayo Soccer.
Your comment regarding respect does not make sense. does respect mean clubs avoid making challenges on Stevie whilst playing against him?? I'm not sure how Celtic & Ballyheane will show "respect" when all other clubs in the M.L will not.
Its foolish & niave to assume players should respect S.G any more just because he has league of Ireland experience.
All competitors in the M.L respect each other equally regardless of their playing standard or experience.
This is junior football and we all have to go to work on a Monday morning.
The mayo league does not reserve special treatment for ex LOI players.
Snugboro United have made a good signing in S.G and have set the standard in recent years as to how community spirit and hard work can pay dividends. They are a credit to their village and to the Mayo League.

I suggest you go watch S.G play for Snugboro F.C.

stevie gave as good as he got in the game he wasn't singled out in my eyes!! stevie did well, he got stuck in when he needed to. as 4 celtic showin him respect????? i don't think so, it's a game of football and whoever your opponent is, he's your enemy 4 90 mins i myself wouldn't show any player respect!! afterwards i'd shake their hand and then show them respect!!

In fairness pixie, i know you weren't at the game so its your informant whos at fault. SG didn't get any special treatment. His quickness of feet meant that he was caught late a few times, but it was never malicious. The game was a physical one on both sides. I doubt anyone will go out to hurt SG this year, he may be manmarked in a few games, but there aren't many hackers around the super league. You get a few thumps down in the lower divisions, especially if you have a bit of pace but again, I don't see much wrong with that side of the game, we're all men and able to handle ourselves, SG will take care of himself.

Snugboro played a quicker game than us and tackled harder than us.

Well I have to agree with every word you said, S.G. will only get respect from every player when its deserved.As for The Galway support club, he will have too drink some pride

For now hear say is all i can go on. Uve missed my point entirely. Any good player who is a class above the rest , LOI or not will always get unwanted attention from other players (and managers) in a negative way...Am i right???
Ive been in many a dressing room at half time where " take that pr**k out" is the order of the day. If You think that style of football is dead in mayo your head is under water my friend. As you said yourself it amature (work on a monday morning) Ya. AS for "launching an attack on Mayo soccer" calm dowm and grow up. This site is for the nity gritty as well as the rosey fields of Mayo foootball. This site should be a debate and not an ultimate lick arrse of MLF

Pls Read top post as regards GUFC supporters. S.G only played one season with us under Steven Lally and did not not make too many apperances so he is was not that well known in terryland!!! Ill drink your stout but thats it my friend

You describe him as L.O.I player now you want to water it down. I drink to that.
By the way things are not going to well in Galway? any new manager about to take over a sinking ship.

Stevie Gavin was the best player on the pitch against Westport, he had a great game against us, it is good for the league to have a player of his quality. He is tough, but neither dirty nor a cheat, anyone who has seen him play will know this.

Hopefull RICO will accept an offer. Billy cleary in as caretaker

**spinster** · 07/04/2008, 9:51 AM

no real surprises at the weekend so? taught ballinrobe might hold erris to a draw first game at home and all. Good win for snugboro away to bangor, hard place to get a result. looks like it will be a good season for snugboro.

If you want to debate on the treatment of S.G in the M.L go watch Snugboro play.
Don't come on here and claim without any reasonable back-up that "If stevie Gets the same treatment as he did in Conway Park last week.............. Well its a discrace 4 mayo soccer that jealousy is still a factor......"
S.G is not the first and will most certainly not be the last player with a little L.O.I experience to ply his trade in the M.L.
It is you who is getting excited. Snugboro had played one game in which they beat the reigning champions and the man in question scored a goal!!
S.G is a quality signing and will be of immence benefit to Snugboro F.C in terms of the experience he will bring to the club. Once he finds his feet in new surroundings he should prove to be an invaluable signing. He is a big boy and he will look after himself on the field of play.
Jealousy is not a factor for the "Mayo League" or for any players and to claim otherwise is ridiculous. This site is without a doubt for "the nitty gritty as well as the rosey fields of mayo Football".
If you want to comment on the nitty gritty, I suggest you visit some of the rosey fields
