Clubs should take full responsabiltys for there actions on the field ,there seem to be a hidden agenda last season which saw Snugboro beat Manulla to stay up,and relegate S/Foxford.
That not to say S/f had there own problems with key players leaving the club.
Which certainly did cause them to deflate.

We need a Ten team league what we need is the other teams to come up to the standard the other teams have set. failing to messure up will see them go back down.
It the same in every league up and down the country.

Dont see what last years Manulla/Snugboro/Ballyheane relegation issue has to do with our 10 team division argument. But now that you've mentioned a "Hidden agenda" to relegate S+f

What was "hidden"? It was crystal clear that Manulla were hardly going to worry if Ballyheane got relegated! It wasnt their problem. If any team got relegated in any division, it was their fault, not any other clubs.

well in my opinion, the super league is a bit of joke, u got the 3 teams at the top miles ahead of the rest of pack,all 3 teams have got young squads and looks like the 3 of them will battle it out for the coming seasons!!! then u got erris,manulla,b/heane battleing for the next 3 place's and after that the rest and very poor, if u look at the boro in 7th place a goal difference of -39(57 goals against) and probably will not get relegated, its a very poor reflection on super leageue in general !!!!

We deliberately conceded that many goals to demonstrate that the Mayo League needs restructuring, quite innovative if you ask me.

Next 3 Super League dates for Snugboro for example are
Snugboro United Manulla Snugboro 23/09/2007 12:00 TBC Round 16
Erris United Snugboro United Carnenash 30/09/2007 14:30 TBC Round 17
Snugboro United Glenhest Rovers Snugboro 21/10/2007 14:30 TBC Round 18
Thats, 8 Weeks for 3 games. However a Reliable Source(IM) informed a colleague of mine that the Erris game has been brought forward to next weekend, can anyone Deny/Confirm this?

**gazza2** · 27/08/2007, 11:29 AM

why the big gap in the games?? doesn't make sense..

**gazza2** · 27/08/2007, 1:11 PM

the Junior cup is starting and Round 1 is Sept 16th and Round 2 is Oct 14

**irishyop** · 27/08/2007, 1:18 PM

Even with these 2 matches there is still a daft gap

**Closed Account** · 27/08/2007, 1:20 PM

Westport and Ballina could have to wait 3 weeks level on points to see who wins the league(and celtic maybe) and relegation might not be copperfastened by then either. Makes the league more like a cup competition. shame.

**the grape vine** · 27/08/2007, 1:24 PM

ya it ashame alright, it has been run pretty well up to this !!

**Footy Mad** · 27/08/2007, 1:29 PM

The other dates are for the Connacht cup. Last 4 games in division 1 are the 9th and 23rd of September, 7th October and 11th November

You should ask the person who is collecting your money for a contact name & # and you can put your comments to that person. As far as I know they will be replacing the turf when they install the full lenght pitch later this year.

**irishyop** · 28/08/2007, 4:24 PM

CT is right, there has been little spent on it for a while due to the upgrades later on in the year, you should still make your point. Some there been paid to do that job.

i seen nobody commented on celtic's great victory against cobh ramblers on sunday, first year in the eircom league and they're in the semi finals, they've gotten further that all these bigger clubs who have a lot more players to choose from and come from all over ireland!!

**irishyop** · 29/08/2007, 12:48 PM

Its a great achievement alright. Well done
