I heard that Charlestown are training very hard and their fitness levels are superior to last year. Also, they are going to blood in some young talent. Definitely the side to beat in the division!!
Achill Rovers
Ballyvary Blue Bombers
Charlestown Athletic
Claremorris ‘B’.
Kiltimagh/Knock Utd.
Urlaur Utd.
Westport Utd. ‘C’
Any ideas on whats happening as regards to replacing Inver?
Charlestown the ones to watch in this league on last seasons record alone.
They should never have been dicked over by the league the way they were - not just them mind you but all that has been covered loads of times here.

Never play leapfrog with a unicorn!!
Mulranny have replaced Inver and somehow Celtic B who were relegated last season to League 2 are now in Premier B.
So this is League 1 for this season.

Mulranny United
Celtic B have taken their place, see Mayo League General Topics Thread for full list of Divisions for 2011.
Don't understand how Celtic B end up there but they are definitely in Premier B
Thanks if this is right i expect that its because Castlebar Celtic pulling out of the national league they go into the super league with last league super league team going into Premier B. I notice that they dont have a C team this season so they have 2 junior teams only as some had on this forum that they would have 3 teams in the league this season.If these divisions are right how can they put Mullraney into League 1 and Moy Villa in to Premier B although Mullraney finished ahead of Moy Villa in last year's division 1.
Any word when the league fixtures and the divisional cups will be published.

Hey lads first of all good luck for new year. ya some of the lads are training hard this year so far, but alot not back yet through injuries and collage commitments. couple of good young lads comin through this year and we have one of our main players back from a couple of seasons ago but taylor is givin it a year out so he is gonna be a major loss for us as he guarntees over 20 goals a season. Pre season has being mixed this year so we hoping to keep it lit following last year. League very tight and far better than last year and could see any team bar ballyvary winnin it

Shaping up to be an interesting year, I just got "Charlestown 2010 - Season Review" out on DVD there last night. I watched it over a steak, waffles and of course, a glass of scotch; and was well impressed. Taylor will be a big loss alright.. Lynchie re-signing for Rovers is huge for us, as well as Kris putting pen to paper (finally) on a lucrative 1-year deal. I'm following a couple of the Bluebombers on Twitter, heres what one of them had to say: "@GavsUp how dare you write us off pre-season, you don't know whats in store in Keelogues for you"... That's fightin' talk lads..Rovers fitness levels are pretty poor to be honest and with a squad of 37 players it's going to be hard for Pep Francis to ascertain his best 11. For the curtain-raiser I'd go with the following (presuming Steve Caff hasn't recovered):
(4-1-3-1-1) GK Crystal Swing LB Boy George McGinty RB Bad Egg Connors CB Cleansheets & The Twin (is he around? if not, Sicknote Lavelle) DM Shad Michael Michaels RW 07 LW Mikey Mytherer CM Davitt AM Jablonski ST T-Bone Steak Dever

Cheers Juan Pablo Angel, you had better stick me on the ould "Ignore" list buck or man up and get used to it..achillrover, he can't hucklebuck no but he showed at the mock wedding that he can tango with the very best of them...Marty Andy, Catherine Seoighe, etc. On a serious note, Mulranny United (albeit our fiercest rivals) have been the victim of a terrible coup by the Mayo League..I could not foresee that happening to a more urban club, once again the small clubs are victimised and a chance for Mulranny to knock us off our 30 year perch and play in a higher division than us for the first time in their history has been savagely ripped from their pink-tinted claws

Charlestown 2 mulranny 2, sneaked a late draw. Tough place to go, not many in this division will pick up points there. how did the other games go?
2-2 is a fine result awat to a promotion favourites Charlestown. Rovers struggled to a 1-1 draw at home to Westport 'C'. They took the lead in the first half with a tame header which probably should have been saved. Truth be told, we had the lion's share of possession but never looked like breaking down a stubborn side who really parked the bus in the 2nd half. A lucky (and according to the man himself after a blast of pints; definite handball) goal from a goalmouth scramble gave us an undeserved share of the points.
No real surprises on first day out Wesport done well comin out of achill with a share of the spoils although as we know from last year for a c team they have great side and are very well organised at the back and rarely concede. We were disappointed not to have held out for the win saturday after goin ahead twice and then missin two chances at the end that ould have won it for us but Mulranny a strong outfit and will be tough beat this year.
As my name would suggest, at that stage now turned spectator. I saw part of the Charlestown game on Saturday, a good game it was, Charlestown appear to have blooded a few younger players into their fold and they feel right at home there too. Their No. 10 looks to have a promising future as does the young lad who came in at centre back. Mulranny looked fresh ahead of their Connaught Shield semi-final, I'd say Charlestown would have got the three points but for injuries towards the end. It was a game worthy of a top of the table clash, but Charlestown would appear to have a bit to do yet to have a roll like last season.
Predictions
1. Mulranny United
2. Charlestown Ath
3. Kilt/Knock
4. Achill
5. Westport C
6. Urlar
7. Claremorris B
8. Ballyvary
