Who won. Celtic & Urlaur was not played. Won the final but not much more. What is this years U-16 team like. I heard Celtic were lucky to beat them in the league this year, two late goals.

I was very surprised to hear that your comments were written about in the excellent Mayo News and now discussed at the AGM. Whats going on in the Port.

Heard that the game did not go ahead. U.16 team would be the best footballing side out of all the underage teams. Key players are Danny Fallon and Eoin Torpey.

A date for your diary. On Friday 23rd February, there is going to be a horse and greyhound race night for Westport United in the Asgard bar, in the Quay, Westport. Promises to be a good night, and if any of the forumites are around, please call in and we will look after you!!

Should have been there to get your issues off your chest. The AGM was the place to let off steam.

Do you think that the committee reacted accordingly to your contributions to foot.ie?

Going by the proceedings at the AGM last Tuesday, you were proven absolutely wrong in that statement.

Hardly TB - they only started reading it cos they heard they were being slagged off. Does not count in my book. Anyway, why do they need to read it when the PRO has taken over the bloody site with his own Port thread! I'm sure they get enough updates from different sources but as they say in Castlebar 'Connacht Cups are ok but they are no substitute for the real thing!'

HOWZAT!

Just wondering what Castlebar has to do with the westport committee not be able to take criticism. I think they say in Castlebar lets move on to the Eircom U-21 League and not let our youth be slowly strangled by a poor SL.

Is that what they say in Castlebar. Well then let me tell you a little story.

Ronan O Boyle was not even givin a look in when Celtic played Shamrock Rovers and one of his relations asked a certain "High Figure" in celtic park why this was . The reply was not only shocking but disgusting " Because we were Afraid he might be Spotted" said the certain Figure. To add insult to injury the grey one also told O Boyle he Shouldnt sign for a certain Eircom League Club because he would " Find him a better Club". Guess What...... He never did.

So Obviously the plan in celtic is to keep your best players in the (your Quote) " Poor Super League" Thank God He looks now set to Join us in Terryland but it dosent overlook the fact that he may not have been allowed progress for selfish reasons!!

Why are you so angry. Why are you getting so upset by what what is happening in Celtic. I did hear the ROB story so I cannot comment. As far as my experience Celtic are always delighted to see players moving to a higher standard and we would be delighted if ROB signed for Galway Utd as long as it is the first team and not the U-21. The reason we want to go U-21 is to give players like ROB a better standard to play in and if some of thes young players get good contracts with Eircom League clubs that would be great. New stepping stone to the UK. I think you see red every time you see Celtic name. Did some Celtic player stand on your toes when you lined out for the Boro or Galway. Cant make out which club you are involved with?

Sorry meant to say I didnt hear the ROB story. We should move this discussion from this thread.

Lordy! - Obviously you went to a misinterpretation school. Figure of speech anyone?

Second hand information being given to a perosn regarding what is posted here is no substitute for the real thing. Just like Connacht Cups really.

Now don't let me stand in your way, best of luck in the U-21 (yeah right!)

HOWZAT!

The junior team does not make up the club-there are nearly 300 kids involved too. Scoring political points on winning the FAI Junior Cup will not help to bring the club forward to a new level in the future. Past success never won a trophy for any club.
