Combination of injuries and lack of match practice. We needed the Cliffoney game really.

wasn't at the game, but from what i heard st peters were excellent, injuries? peters were at 10 men after 15 mins... i was at the last game in athlone, its justice after that game, but thats the joy of football. Westport are a credit to junior football, league of ireland sides wouldn't have the kind of support they have. I'm delighted for st peters and the league...

I have to say fair play and well done to Michael Gallagher for his excellent match report for the U.14 game on Saturday on the Western People today.

**Thunderblaster** · 04/02/2009, 1:43 PM

Westport United were beaten fair and square on the day. No complaints and no objections. The only objection would be to clubs giving us walkovers.

Come in from Castlebar, pass castlecourt on right, take the right before the bridge, next right, pass maxol and its the second road to the right after a graveyard. You will be going up a hill, 300 yards up the hill the ground is into the right.

Why did westort play u14 game on their pitch on saturday and end up
having to play fai game in milebush surely all efforts should have been made to make sure fai game took place in westport gave big advantage away not playing in sportspark.

just assuming, but westport may have thought that milebush may have suited them better. they try and play good football and the sports park is quite narrow and bumpy while milebush is wide and has an excellent surface. as said, it was an excellent game of football by two good teams. having said that, after seeing carrick united playing last season, dont think that st peters have enough to win it but a home draw and a bit of luck, you would never know. have a fair bit of experience.

I think every effort was made for both games to go ahead in the Sports Park, which was the preferred option. Both games were as big in their own right; both were last 32 in Ireland. Just to make a point, Templeogue United came down on Friday in cars, so they could not afford to be messed about.

**pinero** · 06/02/2009, 8:54 PM

I would agree westport play best football in mayo league and like a wide pitch with good surface, but home is home and think ye might be sorry ye let this one get away.
