Westport have back room staff? Jesus this league is more professional than I thought...

Don't think he was offered the Westport job, they needed an outside influence to get them G'd up again in my opinion and they could well have got their man. Now they could do with a striker to score 20 goals a season

I see Celtics Astro has been approved by the powers that be for league games. Can anyone confirm if that includes junior football? If so it will a nightmare to play on because of the width. I cant see it actually suiting the brand of football they are trying to promote at the club but maybe im wrong?

wish it was true to be honest but alas no!

I see from the fixtures that Glenhest and Glenisland have gone! Add to this the withdrawl of snugboro B and you start to wonder whats going on in Mayo. Castlebar town couldnt be sure they would have a squad either this year and had to stay out. Also where are the fixtures for Westport C and the proposed Ballyhaunis team or have these bitten the dust also? The league should do some homework as to why this is happening or it might make a good article in the local rags if the pencils want somthing to write about but in all honesty what is going on??

They nine teams in Division 3 hence thats why Ballyhaunis dont have a game next weekend ..... Glenisland are gone and thats why Westport C are not playing. However Glenhest are still in it but S+F Utd are involved in a Connacht Cup semi final so thats why that game is call of ..... Hope that answered some of your question pixiehead

Now thats the season is about to begin, does anyone know how many teams are goin to be relegated/promoted from each division. I know four are being relegated from SuperLeague and two promoted from Premier Division but after that its not very clear. If they want to reduce each Division to 8 teams next season then six teams will have to be relegated from Premier and eight from first Division. Is this the way its goin to be or was anything decided upon yet?

The whole thing is a joke. No one yet has explained to me why they decided to change the Super league to eight teams. Four less games? It's certainly not about raising the standard, as that just makes no sense. Is it the Mayo league being obsessed with re-branding and re-titling and constantly being seen to evolve? Hard to say no. Clubs are in crisis at grassroots and the Mayo League are more interested in being able to say to other county league boards; 'Did you notice all our clubs have press boxes and score boards?'.

Wish it was true??? I think management will not be a problem now, its just about getting players fit, playing together and the same committment as last year and we should be good to go.

**theboy** · 06/04/2010, 11:12 AM

any thoughts on the start of the SL this weekend? have any teams added or lost players / managers over the last while?

wasn't intended as any slight on the current management set up gf as i think that the effort and commitment from jc is without equal at the club but surely any club in the ml would jump at the chance to have the likes of p b in charge of their team?

**pixiehead** · 06/04/2010, 3:18 PM

How did Fahy manage to have a game called off for a wedding??? Always thought this was against the league rules??? I remember our club trying to have a change of date for a wedding and not being allowed............

I know what you meant

I'm sure PB would be a good manager if he was interested.

Mangement as you said is sorted, just need to do it on the pitch now
