Who picks them????
1. Emmett Peyton - Ballina Town
2. Joe Lawless - Westport Utd
3. Joe Keane - Fahy Rovers
4. Paul Reilly - Iorras Aontaithe
5. Sean Kelly - Ballina Town
6. Dwayne Helly - Ballina Town
7. Tom O'Connor - Ballina Town
8. David Horkan - Westport Utd
9. Gary Goggins - Fahy Rovers
10. Benny Lavelle - Ballina Town
11. Michael Duffy - Ballina Town
To be fair, if that gang of useless comedians picked the team it would surely be less funny than this team is...
I know the tendency is to give the league winners the lion's share but this team is hard to justify. I'll come right out and say that Fahy Rovers having two players on it while Erris have one and Manulla none seems very disproportionate. Gary Goggins is an excellent player who had a great season but missed the last five league matches, while Joe Keane had some fabulous performances but also some where he'd say himself he was not at his best. I wonder if the team might be picked on the basis of a few matches and in some cases reputation?
Anyone who broke into the Oscar Traynor team this year must be wondering how they aren't in the team of the season (Coleman) and I think there may be a couple who got in on previous year's displays rather than this season. Of the Ballina boys, I think Tom O Connor deserves his, as does Peyton and Duffy. Havn't seen enough of the other guys really.
Who do people think are the major omissions? And can anyone tell me who picks these teams??? I know the press were invited to offer their opinions last year but not this time round.
Any Fai Junior Cup games played in Mayo today folks?
Any reports on any of the games?
S'NF- D.Flatley,S.Walsh,M.Costello,J.Jordan.D,D.Smith,S. Hughes,G.Gaughan,

Ballyheane- S.Fahy,J.Nolan,D.Sherdian,M.Roache,K.Omalley,G.Bou rke,T.Cogghil.M.Conroy,
S.Quinn,C.Maughan,L.Maloyne
Very competive match in which it was a battle of midfield, ashley athision holding midfield, gerry gaughan and shane bourke playing in front of him, with conroy and cogghil in the middel for the heane.
Was no clear cut chances for either team in first half, but shane hughes crossed the ball from the right hand side, which shane bourke drilled home from 10 yards just before the break.Ballyheane came out in second half and dominated the game for 25 mins, putting pressure from free kicks and corners but with no real danger to the snf keeper, 2 late goals from paul fitzpatrick who finished a move just inside the box beatin fahy at his near post, and shane bourke got his second few mins after which was goal of game.
Away to Shangan Athletic next round who are in AUL, Sundayn 31st 2pm-Dublin.
shangan are bottom of the aul they havent won a game all year. can't be too hard!! best of luck to snf!!

How are ye fixed this year for the SL and A-League?
a league much the same as last season. the o boyles not playing though. heading off to america for the summer. stevie gavin and paul walsh only new signings so far and a keeper on the way, james jennings gone back to manulla. not sure about the super league, they're not back training yet!

hopefully we give it a good go alright and get a good pre season done. starting off fresh this year not like last year we just went straight into it because of the connaught cup run.

The o boyles will be hard replace, wally is a good signing i think stevie gavins best days are behind him ''with respect' its a bit of a step up from playing from standard of superleague last year.. i think the super league will be a lot stronger this season as 4 teams will be getting relagated.
Would ya say celtic will find it hard to attract good players from outside castlebar this year? its not like players are getting paid to travel long distances to go training twice a week, and to go travelling to cork or dublin or whereven away games are been played, james jennings gone back to manulla surely those factors must have come into his head when he went back to manulla! will this be a knock on effect??
they got deducted 15 points becausae when they won their division last year they went to spain on a team holiday and they wrecked an appartment so aul deducted them points, they beat St.Kevins boys also so they are obviously a dangerous side...be very tough...
