Its hard to know with some funny results, i dont know is it depends on gaelic or not but with question marks still hanging over what is going to happen with relegation and promotion for next season, i will cut up the league in three. I will put them as good as i can in the order they are now.
Top 3.
Muranny
Killala
Achill
Next 3 -a couple of wins they could challenge for the top or a couple of losses they could drawn into the normal relegation batles
Inver
Conn Rangers
Castlebar
Bottom 4 - i cant see them pulling away from the bottom.
Urlaur
Manulla
Kiltimagh
Moy Villa

Killala
Mulranny

Bottom eight:
Dosnt matter - Relegated!

a little negative maximus,where would you rather finish 3rd or 10th??

[QUOTE]a little negative maximus,where would you rather finish 3rd or 10th??/QUOTE]

Think this is one of the reasons the League won't confirm how many teams are being relegated from each division. They are afraid that even half way through the season that all teams not in with a chance of promotion will just throw in the towel and their will be lots of meaningless games.

Exactly Footy. I think this would be the case with many teams if they knew they were bound for relegation. Honestly Mr. Monkey if the bottom 8 were getting the cut, 3rd or 10th would make no difference. Your dropped into div 2, while the second place team goes into the prem. Now your 2 divisions apart!

**purplemonkeydis** · 23/05/2010, 4:37 PM

urlaur 1 - 3 conn rangers, rangers scored 1st but urluar equalised immediately,rangers grabbed another before half time and got a 3rd in the second half,both teams had chances to score more but realistically it was a fair result

Killala 3 3 Castlebar Celtic B

Real sickner conceding 2 late goals. First half played some wonderful football, first Malloco scored from close range from a Smurf cross, the secound came when the keeper failed to cut out a Smurf cross come shot to go 2 up at half time, secound half Gigsy put 3 up when scoring at the secoud atempt after the keeper saved his first atempt. Gigsy,Knoxy and Boiler all had good chances to increase the lead looked comfartible made a no of subsitutions to give the bench time. With about 5 minutes left a cross came in our keeper tried to palm the ball over the bar but ould only into the back of the net and then with practle the last kick they scored the equaliser after we failed to clear a free kick. Their first came from a dubious penalty award.

Malloco, Smurf, Gigsy, Knoxy, Boiler...???? Some strange names there Round Tower!!!

Although I am familar with that Knoxy fella and probably would not say that to his face!!!

**achillrover** · 25/05/2010, 12:00 PM

Care to elaborate on how exactly it was a dubious penalty?

IMO you guys are half decent th best - not saying we're the greatest team either- though maybe it was an off day for ye. Your first two goals came from silly mistakes by us, and it didn't really help our cause that our centre-forward was playing in goal.

On the subject of keepers, I think ye may need to replace yours if you've got aspirations of promotion.

The penalty was given where their was little or no contact and if there was it was shoulder to shoulder. Our keeper has made some up for his mistakes by making some wonderfull saves this season including a penalty save against Urlaur and a man of his age of 42+ he has great agility. As for your own keeper or centre forward he was lucky he was not red carded for the tackle he made on our centre forward early in the game. The refree has given 2 dubious penalty decisions against us this season and admited giving a no of bad decisions last sunday, a no of offsides that was not and frees that was not.

**achillrover** · 25/05/2010, 4:08 PM
