    Wheres the joke? None of the top teams are playing in the connaught cup till round 3. If he wants the best panel and people that want to play for Mayo then open invitation is the best option. Hopefully the best players from each club show up and he gets that

    Acording to the Mid West website clubs in the lower leagues and players in the Super league who was not part of last year panel is invited to the trials. I think everyone no matter what division they every good player deserve a chance. I would expect that he will give players from the 20 clubs involved in Conaught another chance.

    Fahy have a player that should be on that squad like a few more clubs who are over looked. There is an invitation to contact him if clubs feel they have a player but dont waste your breath. Its merely a political gesture to keep most people quite. The bulk will be made up of Ballina and westport players with a couple thrown in for good measure. Usual predictable stuff and a predictable short run in the cup as a result.

    Let me simplify it for you. The Connaught cup matchs are being played on sunday at 2 o clock.

    Upcoming meeting

    A meeting of the MSCA will take place in the coming weeks. Only clubs who have expressed an interest in affilating to the association or who respond to this email wishing to attend meetings will remain on this mailing list. As always all responses remain strictly confidential.

    Again i would suggest those who feel hard done by dont just talk and have their say with the organisation. Changes for the better can be made if the clubs have a voice.

    latest idea from the idiots at mayo league top table,knowing that they have created a mess by reducing the divisions to 8 teams meaning all teams willl only have 14 league games and probably only 16 games in whole season,they think we should play each other three times in the league now, as has happened many times in the past teams have drawn each other in the divisional cup and on occasion in the mayo cup,could ya imagine playing a team 5 times in one season,ya might even be lucky enough to have to travel to iorras or kilmore 4 times in one season(now that something to look forward ta,better buy an overnight bag)and as a follow up to the quaility of mayo super league mr tom kelly wrote a piece a number of weeks back in telegraph about there been nothing wrong with quailty in the super league seen as ballina had dropped so little points over the season ans still needed to win on last day of season to win league title, i wonder had this 8 team division idea the full backing of the committee or just select few.

    I have to agree with a previous poster here that this is only a token gesture and an insult to most mayo league clubs and the players,Any manager knows what players he needs or is looking at for his squad or at least he should know.in my eyes the squad is more or less picked,The gesture to send players in for a trial match is not really fair.The reason I say this is that the manager should know what players are out there.It will be primarily made up of Ballina and westport players"thats if the westport lads play".It will be intresting to see how many players actually are picked from sundays trial.I will hasten a guess at 1.Its only an exercise to keep all the other mayo league clubs happy and that is not really fair as a lot of those teams have Cup matches at the weekend.

    Sounds like a real laural and Hardy story.
    Stan what another fine mess you got us into.
    Beggers believe
    This would be foolish to think, after giving the reason was so you would pay less on cost.

    Word is that the ML have defended their decision to hold the trials last sunday and that if clubs were interested in having their players considered for the Mayo squad then they should have forwarded their names to the manager and he would then have watched them at a later date. Now my point is WHEN!!! where is there going to be enough games to view players if 10 clubs decide to put their players names forward.
    Im sure that BK wont be going round the grounds next weekend as Ballina will be in FAI action and after that they will have Connaught cup action, So when will these players be assesed??? another lie from the governing body and im sure that if players turned up for trial last sunday they were most likely from Conn Rangers, Kilalla and Claremorris as these clubs had bye's in the cup. This I have no problem with and fair play if some of those guys get on and progress in the squad but im sure other teams would have liked to have their players acknowleged and assesed. will there be another "open" day or will the token gesture just be confined to those who turned up last sunday?
    On another note is there rumbelings that Westport players will not make themselves available for selection over the Westport v Ballina debacle and the stag party members who couldn't get the game postponed. I'm sure it will be hard to give service to a league who virtually ended their season by not postponing "that" game.

    Ya its goin to be interesting to see what players will say, if they are asked to join the panel. The westport players will be a huge loss if the decide not to play. The clubs will also have to make a choice when the dinner dance comes round. Will all clubs attend as normal or will they use it to make a point.

    Meeting in Milebush

    http://inform.fai.ie/league/clubs/ne...OrgID=1283#top

    Looks like the hirearchy are offering to meet with the club delegates. I wonder is this to justfy their decision and push their intention to stand their ground or would there be any chnce of hoping for them to listen and abolish this farcical structure for 2011??

    Very much doubt it, i think this meeting is to see how the new league will be run, do clubs play each other 2 or 3 times aseason.

    This is more of it from the mayo league,make it up as we toddle along.
    Did they drop the number of teams to have less games or improve the standard?
    What is going to happen is the teams who got relegated will lose players to the bigger teams as they have a taste of the top flight and don`t want to be scrapping to get back up and this will lead to weaker clubs getting poorer and top teams getting stronger which will lead to a bigger divide,this has happened to other leagues around the country.

    would have to agree with portside. way things going it will improve the standard, only cos as you say, players will go to the bigger clubs. beginning to think that the ml's ploy is to reduce the number of clubs involved. if they can fall from existence by silly fines, this surely must eradicate some.
