Ballina Town V Snugboro United 2-0
Ballyheane V Manulla p-p
Reporter to Gordon Strachan: gordon, what's your impression of jermaine pennant? Reply: I don't do impressions!!
sour grapes i think, i was at game yesterday iorras no 11 should have had 3 goals in the first half cut in from right wing poor finishing ,keeper made excellent save from iorras no 9 and first goal was a good finish after the young lad followed up shot that was blocked firstly and then parried by keeper,second half celtic had 60 per cent of ball but really only created two good chances before they scored. gibbons header(he should really have hit target) and one great save by iorras keeper,iorras no 10 had two one on ones put both wide,third great strike and fourth easy tap in for no 9 after poor clearence by keeper, but it came from the young winger who got first goal, chasing a nothing ball.possesion means nothing in soccer ya have to put ball in net.
truthfully, celtic had enough possession to draw but did not take their chances, erris did, won the game, end of.
everyone at celtic knows it will be a long, tough season. at the end of the day, it is effectively our b team playing in the super league but in imo they have enough to stay up. two decent performances in two games missing a lot of players who will be back in the next 2-3 weeks.
lads, dont start this s**t argueing between celtic and all the other clubs because thats all it is, a load of s**t.
A: How am I "Westport"? I play for Fahy and i'm from Louisburgh
B: Your a typical Celtic fan who cant accept that ye're not the best team in the county, ye're just about the best in Castlebar area. Why would I care what you say little man, couldn't give a fcuk about the westport complex you seem to have...
Stick to talking football good man...
we all know that celtic are not the best team in the sl. remember its our second team against all of yer first teams. our first team are second in the a championship with a decent shout at promotion to the first division!!
in response to your question about westport, no i don't think anyone will touch them. ballina will be the same as always and wont last pace and judging on last weeks performance erris have no chance.
we will never know the answer to this question.
westport were better than celtics sl team last year but this years a league team is completely different to that team.
celtic are in excellent form at the moment and playing very well, it would be a very good game between the two of them but they're is no oppurtunity for them to play each other so we will never know.
Compare like for like:
J. Jennings, M. Hamilton, A. Neary, A. Stephenson, D. Flynn, C. Rowland, A. McDonnell, S. McHale, G. O’Boyle, P. Dravins, E. McGahon
McGreal, Navin, Lawless, Geraty, Keane, Cameron, Scahill, Horkan, McLoughlin, Hoban, O'Malley
In my opinion there's not much in it but Westport look a better side on paper. Who knows if they played now?
add robert hennelly, james minogue, stevie ryan, ronan o' boyle, shane hynes, pat fitzgerald, gary price, ioseph o' reilly and danny broderick to that aswell. 6 of them have played loi football before we entered it.
i still think it would be a tight game but strongest 11 v 11 i think we would just shade it.
everyone entitled to their own opinion though and i wont question anyone elses opinion
