I dont think theres any rule to stop B teams playing A players for the first three matchs and then regrading them A.

True. Do you have to pay a fee to regrade players? If not, then you should to stop shenanigans. Celtics "A" team lost 3-0 to Snugboro in a friendly yesterday. They might struggle in the super league this year.

16 of the players named were in the fai junior squad, the other player is away and will be back for the summer,the lad that played for the B team against celtic is getting married in the summer and plays gaelic thats why he was not named in A squad,he only lasted 20 minutes against celtic was carrying injury from junior cup,Iorras lucky enough to have two good squads of players at moment so dont knock it,missing about ten good players last summer but we werent crying about it.

snugboro v celtic game was a game of two halves.
celtic poor in first half but decent in second. snugboro created 2 chances and took them.
celtic better side in second half and created probably 2 or 3 decent chances. boro scored in the break.
celtic fielded a young side. 3 lads that played in u16 cup final on saturday played. one of them just back from 2 and a half months out injured. snugboro look like they will be tough to beat. looked like a good run out for the celtic lads. i watched the full game and i thought snugboro better in first half and celtic just shading it in second half.

Fair enough, didn't see the game so shouldn't be commenting on it.

Didnt see it either but after talking to players from both teams, consensus was snugboro by far the better team.

Cheers Swinford for the Scorers from your game, will put them online later this evening? Any other teams have any scorers for me from the first 2 games of the season??

PM me.

Erris A can only name 3 B signed players in there matchday squad so conversely the maximum number of A team players that would of been able to play for the B team is 3. Celtic were beaten by a better team and as usual are looking for excuses. End of.

I think its 5 B players in the A squad but only 3 on the pitch at anyone time, i may be wrong .

[pinero]

Only three B team players can be used in any one A Team match.

What are celtics super league team like this year with the eircom lads out of the picture? is there many u-16s going to be used?

seen them play twice this year. will be decent enough. a few experienced players and a good few youths. some players will be floating between a league and super league. around mid-table id say.
cian costello, fergal durcan and nigel naughton were the three u16s that played sunday. fergal durcan is in the mayo minors i think so he might not play much. nigel naughton just back from injury. he played a few super league games last year. i remember him scoring 2 or 3. cian costello is a tidy young footballer. there will be a good few u18s playing aswell i would imagine. dont want to give away too much information about them or the experienced players though
