Thats fair enough but how are we surposed to know? No need for the thickness on both posts. A simple "we've had our AGM" would have surfised. Alot of clubs have not had theirs and until they have the officers are still offical.

No more allegations about players getting paid (unless you have evidence to back it up).

The posts earlier about it are in rubbish.

Moved over here CT, forumites get pedantic when you go off topic(especially the limerick boys). Regards Snugboro signings. New players aren't top secret but we're only doing fitness work so far, so won't know who's joining until later on in the season. We've had people training at this time of the season before but no sign of them by the start of the season so I'll wait until then to confirm anyone.....

I was only saving pixiehead bacon, before he write something, that he may regret.
As from now we will never know, at leased, for by part, I think I done him a favour.
So never mined the smoke screen. He tried to create.

Mayo League is crap only one team Westport Utd (2005 FAI Champions). Only one winner of Connacht JC in last 18 years. Where is Grattan Utd pitch and what facilities do they have, stand clubhouse with bar etc Whats the pitch like.

This was your reply to someone on the FAI Junior Cup thread. I would just like to say that you are indeed right that the standard has dropped in a big way, but we Celtic have helped bring about this. By this I mean that we brought in a manager who would not know a ten yard pass along the ground if it bit him on the arse. The football he has brought to the Mayo League goes against everything that Celtic was known for. Fair enough in the past we couldnt play like Westport but we tried but we never resorted to the long ball rubbish of the last couple of years. Also if the Mayo League is that bad how come we cant win in all that often. I think before you start slating the League you should look in house first

I am not sure were you are coming from. In case I've taken you up wrong.
Take your first comments were from Gratten, which I think they have a hard neck.
Your 2nd comments is the down grade of football in Mayo.
Lets be clear about one thing, Whats make junior football beautiful?

Junior football by those who plays it, was never beautiful. Its the bottom of the barrell. But it is in a league of its own by those who plays enjoyed by those who are involved in it. Standards of Junior football is no worse in Mayo or any other county. But now and again Junior football will throw up descends sides from time to time.
ie: Just may be bring in a few ex league of Ireland players who just want the last fling. But by enlarge most clubs that want to progress will be looking to play at a higher level, ie: Castlebar Celtic. Whether you like The Gray One or not,the one thing he does have and that is vision, on where Celtic will be playing football in the future. that is a higher standard.
You can never improve junior football, only play at a higher standard.

Can you read at all. I clearly said that they were closing times comments on another site and that I wanted to state that with the falling of standards of the league we helped bring it about

**thirdeye** · 05/02/2008, 5:53 AM

lads just to fill you in... grattan utds pitch is on the north side of cork city...knocknaheeney is the locality....they do not have a club house, a bar, showers or an astro turf facility as seems to be the perception...fact...they have a container which has been revamped to provide dressing rooms...a small cinder/gravel 5 a side and 1 pitch....that's iT!!!!!!!
