...whats the story with Stevie Ryan? Dont see his name on reports for A league team. Is he injured?
Saw him down as playing in the game before last I think, definitely quite recently. Forgot about Stevie Gavin; he's a shoe in. Only reason I left out Goggins and Keane was because they play for our team, I said from other teams so as not to be unbiased...Originally Posted by GoodFootball
fair enough, ye have shown with yer results that ye deserve one or two players on it and 10 goals in 9 games is a fantastic return.
pricey is with the a league team, scored against dundalk, not sure if he will play any more super league games but i could be wrong.
stevie ryan played and scored against dundalk last week
From the games ive been at stevie ryan has either started or came off the bench, doenst seem to be gettin a regular spot with the 2 centre backs playing well and the middle of the park seems to be tight aswell.
Seen him on the CT there actually, was thinking he wasn't playing that much. Very strong squad now, would never have put Stephenson down as a LOI player or Chris Rowland but their showing up well...
Straide and Foxford are Under rated and will come good soon, Decent game against ballina town in the semi final and looked by far the better team. They will turn it around, the ability is there but results and performances far and few between
I see Ballyheane are up to their old tricks beating Westport.
S & F 2-0 Fahy Rovers
Have we a psychic joining us?
what happened to us yesterday?wasn't at the game myself but heard that s and f were full value for their win.we seem to be blowing hot and cold in recent weeks.hopefully we can get it together again for he game against ballina next weekend.will be a tough game but it is being played in moneen so ya never know what might happen!
celtic 0-5 ballina
manulla 7-2 kilmore
boro 1-2 erris
s&f 2-0 fahy
westport 0-1 ballyheane
looks like ballina are right back in it after the weekends games.
I think its very healthy that we're coming off the pitch feeling dissappointed everytime we lose. We are in the super league though if we look at it realistically I'd have taken 12 points from first 8 games.what happened to us yesterday?wasn't at the game myself but heard that s and f were full value for their win.we seem to be blowing hot and cold in recent weeks.hopefully we can get it together again for he game against ballina next weekend.will be a tough game but it is being played in moneen so ya never know what might happen!
We didn't play as bad as you suggest. S & F had more chances than us but I thought we defended well up until the sending off which threw us into defence and then they scored almost immediately. We did miss a peno to equalise and had another great chance too. S & F got one on the break as last kick of game.
Forget about it and roll on Ballina next week. Might do neighbours a favour

ah i'm not saying that we shouldn't be disappointed at getting beaten by s and f or by any other team for that matter.and 12 points is a very good return from the first 8 games.just felt going into the game yesterday that we might have finally been able to get a win against s and f after the few beatings that we took last year.still the return fixture to try and reverse that result though i suppose!I think its very healthy that we're coming off the pitch feeling dissappointed everytime we lose.

heard that the sending off was a bit harsh as it was a second yellow and the first yellow was soft enough?its disappointing to lose a goal with the last kick of the game especially as we were chasing the game at the time.maybe this could be the result that sees s and f get their season back on track.
with ballyheane winning at the weekend against westport it blows the title race right open.good for the game in mayo i think and maybe it will generate a bit more interest in the super league in the coming weeks.
just want to ask you all what you think off refs this season?is it just me or are the standards dropping ?ive watched a few games this season and im surprised at the amount off times westport get castlebar refs.one clearly cost port lge cup game in ballina and almost cost a lad his playing days.saw another give a cat penalty in premier lge game saturday evening in westport and i believe the same ref has done three b games and given four penalties against westport ???i have been told the first ref even had a game moved so he could watch celtic in the a league.whats the story ????????
I saw the game, was a definate second yellow, the big akward man didnt mean it but lead with his elbow for every single high ball and it was only a matter of time that he caught someone proper with it and did so nearly breakin the centre backs nose.
All the same it was an entertaining game with many chances, Paul Fitz should have had it wrapped up, unlike him, missed 2 one on ones but tormented the Fahy back line through out.
Where are you going with this?,it's not as if there's too many people willing to take on the man in the middle job as it is.Refs are not above critisism but I guarantee there will be games cancelled all over the place this season for the lack of them.
Oh no here we go again. Its not a sin to give freekicks or penaltys against Westport. The standard of refs has been good this season, some of the guys who took it up a few seasons ago seem to improving all the time. Theres always a few exceptions mind you, but its rarely you will see them in SL or premier games. By the way most of the referees are from Castlebar.
ballina gone top on goal difference with westport having a game in hand.
i think a westport defeat was on the cards, it will be interesting to see how they react but it has definetley opened up the league, erris are still there and there abouts also.
on our behalf, it was a poor result. i didn't see the game so i don't know what it was like but we need to start picking up points especially with s&f getting their first win of the season. i believe celtic will stay up, its just a matter of getting a win and getting a bit of confidence back, i hope!!!
agreed, can't see what quayheart is hoping to gain from this post. i have seen a fair few sl games and the reffing has been decent and some of them have had to ref games with no linesmen. as rava said, the majority of refs are castlebar based and none of them have a vengenance against westport or any other team for that matter. they are doing a job that an awful lot of people can't or won't do, they should be praised and not slated for the odd mistake. they are there for the good of the game and without them we would have no football
agree with both of you.it's a really hard job to do in fairness and the amount of stick that they get in some games is terrible.i for one wouldn't do it!
