Hopefully we get the 3 points against Kilmore which will make up for not getting anything against Celtic.

Both Celtic and Fahy will battle against relegation but the effort put in by both sides might suggest some upsets against the Westports and Ballinas of the league...

Speaking of relegation etc.. Does anyone know if the farcical promotion play-off applies this year in the Super League? If memory serves, it was meant to be 3rd bottom in SL vs 3rd top in Prem division , but last year ended in 6th place kilmore promoted. Are they having this again, or is it 2 up 2 down?

Fahy 2-1 Kilmore

Tough game Fahy were without 4 regulars but done well. Wasn't at it but heard Sean O'Donnell scored first for Fahy only to be pegged back by Kilmore. 1-1 at half time. Gary Goggins coming up with the winner as he has so many times.

Hopefully more to follow next week but it'll be tough at Snugboro. Expecting that 4 players will be back again but just shows maybe how our squad has more depth this year...

Erris 4-1 Celtic .

Erris lucky, I KNOW 4-1 but two goals came in injury time. Celtic played all the football but erris had the experience.

Iorras didnt play well gave the ball away very cheaply but never looked like losing were 2.0 and missed a lot of chances on the break to kill off game,gave away good goal by celtic,but raised there game to finish it off, i know they are happy with the win they lost alot of games like this last season,celtic never easy place to go and pick up three points.

**hoop4life** · 07/06/2009, 6:25 PM

cetic were the better side there today.
erris first goal took three richochets before their no.6 tapped it in. second goal was an og, third goal was an excellent strike from 25 yards out and their fourth our keeper (who did play very well considering hes not a keeper) was caught well outside his box and no.9 tapped it in.
erris didn't create that much and celtic missed 4 or 5 chances you would be expecting them to score. deserved a draw at least. good performance from celtic and with a bit more luck and maybe being a bit more clinical in front of goal they could have got at least a point.

Better side lost like 2 weeks ago in Moneen! Thats the way it goes in the super league, if you dont take ur chances you can be beaten or even hammered undeservably

Cant comment on Kilmore this season as I wasn't there. Not eliagible to play yet! From playing against Kilmore before they are an honest team, not particularly physical but fit and committed bunch, they have no real star match winners though which will go against them in the SL I think. Hard to beat down there though...

**pinero** · 07/06/2009, 7:13 PM

I could count at least 3 one on ones that were missed by iorras when score was 2.0 as i said celtic lots of ball but iorras lifted game when they had too.iorras lost lots of games last year when they were missing 1st team players so considering who was missing today excellent result.

**Whipitin** · 08/06/2009, 6:55 AM

**theboy** · 08/06/2009, 9:08 AM

No way did the better side loose that day. Yes you deserved a draw but that was it. Yes I only saw the first half and Celtic deserved to be one up. Second half you were the better team from what I hear and should have got something from the game but not all three points. Yesterday IMO Erris deserved the 3 points because they defender better than we did and always looked dangerous on the break. Celtic played all the football without creating enough chances or getting the breaks Erris got (their first and second goals were pure luck). Both teams had great chances to score in the second half but it was Erris who played the quick ball up to their front two and tried to pick up the breaks but never troubled the Celtic keeper bar the one chance in the second half when their left winger blasted wide from a good position. It was a good lesson for this team and shows you have to take you half chances at all times your you get nothing from the game. cant see Erris troubling Westport on yesterdays performance. Yes I know they were missing a number of players but so was every team yesterday.

Every team will be missing players as this was the case for celtic yesterday and probably every team in the league was in the same boat. Look the first two goals scored by erris were pure flukes and they got the bounce of the ball yesterday. I only remember 1 one on ones but that said IMO Erris were deserving winners but not because of their directness but for their defending, physical strength and strong goalkeeping. I delighted the way Celtic played yesterday and if they keep playing football the breaks and results will come.

Ballina Town V Snugboro United
Ballyheane V Manulla

As the saying goes "goals win games" and they got 4 Celtic got 1. I'm sure if you play as well as you said you did ye'll win games to come...
