Burren Utd beat Tulla 4 - 0 yesterday to win promotion to division 1.
Tulla are relegated for the 2nd sucessive season. !!
Why not inform them in writing if you had nothing to hide....i heard they only found out from the grapevine,not a nice thing to hear about a club who say they are totaly committed to the Clare league

Ballbreaker, the game is fixed for thurs night, 7pm at newtown. I was down there yestersay and the pitches are spot on. No excuses for two teams who like to play a bit of ball!
With all due respect 442 no club would have done that,this was only talks,there was nothing to inform them of,if it was going to happen then we would have told the Clare league.There was no point in writing a letter,what would you say(We are thinking of joining with Park???),Shannon Town for 2 meetings and Shannon Olympic for a lot more were also involved in these talks,that being the operative word Talks.Why not inform them in writing if you had nothing to hide....i heard they only found out from the grapevine,not a nice thing to hear about a club who say they are totaly committed to the Clare league

probably a bit hard but that can only be expected,best of luck to both teams on Thursday.

Olympic were invited by Newtown and park so they went along to see what it was all about, the players were told at the start of the season that the club was staying well clear of it and it was never even put to a vote by the players at the club
can't agree,i was at them meetings,they happened while the season was running and about being upfront Olympic never gave that indication that they would stay well clear of it,i am not going to get into a slanging match,i have answered the questions the best and most honest way i could,if people want to go into every corner of this we will talk about nothing else,i came on to say it is finished so lets not go down the road of we done this ye done that.......

just to clear up any comments about olympic. While the management of olympic may have thought it was an idea worth contemplating, and probably were at one stage, a vote never would have passed witht he players, so I think thats the point 442 was trying to make. No disrespect to Newtown, or anyone else involved but an amalgamation really is of no benefit to us. Also, we are keen to hold on to our identity and are confident enough that we are going in the right direction(granted, alot depends on Thursday's play-off). I for one, am delighted that Newtown have pulled out of the proposed amalgamation..............I have an alternative view on why this fell apart by the way, they couldnt agree on where the "refreshments" were to take place after every match
Of coarse a vote wouldnt have passed with the players...im sure none of them would have wanted to play for a ''D'' team..
Are you sure it was Cheeky that got the second?
Wasnt cheeky...was ryan kelly!! Ballbreaker must of been watching a different game
Thats much better Opengoal,and i don't think that was the point 442 tried to make,442 to my knowledge was trying to imply something sneaky was going on,i merely pointed out that at one stage there was 4 clubs involved.just to clear up any comments about olympic.

I take it you last comment is just to humour us.All i can say was it was tried and nothing came of it.So now i go back to what Madmick said,LETS IMPROVE THE STANDARD.
Sorry all it was Ryan Kelly,but cheeky should have scored as wellWasnt cheeky...was ryan kelly!! Ballbreaker must of been watching a different game
I was at Digiphone park yesterday to witness the promotion/relegation playoff between Tulla and Burren Utd. Burren were good value for the win if not for the scoreline (4-0). It's a shame to see Tulla's fall from grace to get relegated two seasons in a row and particularly this season. After 9 games in this season's league thay were sitting pretty on 21 points and looked odds on for at least promotion if not to win the league. In the remaining 9 games, they only gained 1 point. As I say it is a pity, for the likes of Ed Crowe in particular who has worked tirelessly the last few seasons to keep a rural team in a GAA stronghold in the higher divisions. On the other hand, Burren will not be out of their depth in the first division if they can keep that squad together. Rumour has it they also expect to attract back a couple of promising local lads who are playing for other clubs (Lifford beware!!!). Looks like there will be no handy points coming from the second division for teams already in the first.

As many other have found out on this website nibzer, that kind of comment nealry always comes back to bite you on the ass....................see you in the premier
(fingers crossed)
Well I propose that we all go back to our Clubs and inform our First Team Manager and Chairman and ask them to approach other clubs to set up a forum?
Why would they the newtown lads wouldnt get on with the olympians.
Sorry bit lost with "Ye Old English", please explain further!!
I can hear the Tumbleweeds blowing through the site!!!!! Would have thought the Olympic boys would be blowing their trumpets this week!!! Maybe they have all gone to La Manga before their big game.
Cousinsyl who do you fancy in this one, as far as I know no 1st Division Team has won the playoff game to go up and did not Rineanna play in last years and beat Bridge Celtic 4-0? Could be wrong on these facts!!!
