hello guys just looking for your opinions on the connacht cup as we get
to the final stages. who are the main contenders????
Anyone got the completed draw for the 5th round??
'I can live with disappointment, its the hope I cant handle'
athenry v westport big match winners probably favourites.east v tuam all division two affair
i see manulla are playing carbury sunday. carbury are very strong this year a lot of ex league of ireland players in there ranks.will be very hard to beat. thats if they turn up of course..
I think this is the way the quarters will line up:
Ballinasloe v Athenry/Westport
Galway Hibs v East Utd/Tuam
Manor Rangers v Manulla/Carbury
S&F/Salthill v Oranmore/Coolera
6 of the 13 remaining teams are from Galway, 3 Sligo/Leitrim, 3 Mayo, 1 Roscommon. Dont think the winners of Athenry/Westport would necessarily be favourites, especially with an away tie to Ballinasloe the next hurdle. If Carbury can get by Manulla I'd fancy them to beat Manor. I cant see Coolera pulling off 2 away wins to make semis. Galway Hibs will fancy their chances at home. My predicted semi-finalists are - Ballinasloe, Galway Hibs, Carbury, Salthill.
Apologies to all those whom I've offended and jinxed with my predictions
'I can live with disappointment, its the hope I cant handle'
I think it is a fair stab at what might happen. It is all down to what happens on the day. Athenry have been there before and still have some fine players. Westport will find it tough. I think that Ballinasloe can do well also. Carbury appear to be doing well in Sligo and could go all the way also. Galway Hibs are always a good bet, and I suppose Salthill will have most of their second string. Manulla do not look like they are putting in much effort in Mayo so I think they can be ruled out. Do not know anything about Tuam, East, Coolera or Manor to make a judgement.
Will stick my neck out and go for Westport to go all the way this year. They are used to winning away from home.
Athenry and Westport should be a cracking game and wouldnt be suprised if the
winner from that game went on to win it outright. if Carbury overcome Manulla they wont get it
easy against Manor up there. i still think it will be Carbury's year this year. having seen them play this year they
are playing some great football and will be very hard bet. they were beating in the final by athenry a couple of seasons a go
but they have a whole new team. this time around far stronger and superior to what they were back then
Redz, who is your club in Sligo/Leitrim??
'I can live with disappointment, its the hope I cant handle'
dont have a club im well past it. try 2 get to as many games as possible can only
make the morning games as i work in the afternoon but i try and get too see all the teams play
a few times if possible
Athenry 3 - 1 Westport
S&F 3 - 1 Salthill Devon
Oranmore 5 - 0 Collera
Ballinasloe v Athenry
Galway Hibs v East Utd/Tuam
Manor Rangers v Manulla/Carbury
S&F v Oranmore
think carbury beat manulla fairly handy 3-0, they have astrong shout now
'I can live with disappointment, its the hope I cant handle'
The Best of luck to Athenry, you came out deserved winners on sunday! It was a good game. You should go on to win it!
Dont always say what you know, but always know what you say.
Cheers Leveller, Thought it was a good game from both sides, Good luck in the league this year, Sorry to hear your Manager Padraig stepped down. Fair play to him on all the success he brought the side over the years.
Any result from the East Utd/Tuam game??
'I can live with disappointment, its the hope I cant handle'
Was called off due to a death in tuam.
no suprises in the connacht cup at the weekend think the ballinasloe and athenry should
be a good game both teams will fancy there chances. that side of the draw looks the toughest with carbury
and manor doing battle.
east were semi finalists last year,division 2 title our aim,we beat hibs already this year 4 v 3 in bohermore so anything is possible
What division are Tuam in? They knocked us(Ballygawley) out in the first round down there
