Well, why don't you tell us???

I heard a rumour of that nature.

You know before anyone because you get the fixtures emailed to you. If we got a walkover, just say it.

Email did not come across very clearly on the laptop. A clash of configuration on the program, but it did read like a walkover and I just wanted confirmation on that.

Underage teams did well over the weekend!!

Westport United V Castlebar Celtic in the U.18 FAI Cup on Saturday at 2:00 in the Sports Park.

Castlebar Celtic V Westport United in the Mayo U.16 Cup semi final on Sunday at 2:00 in Celtic Park. Would be nice to see a Covey victory in both games but my head suggests that both sides are really up against it.

Reading the Westport/Celtic stuff on the Ballyheane thread, I am very proud of Westport United but there are a couple of points that I read and I feel that there is no choice but swallow our pride. We cannot be using the same mantra "we won the FAI Junior Cup" in every argument.....it sounds like a worn out record player. The only ways we will get ahead of Castlebar Celtic is to work twice as hard with our young players in our coaching and development. Leveller used the argument on population. Corrib Celtic, who beat our U.18s comes from Annaghdown, hardly a big town and Ballinrobe Town beat our U.12s, another area with a smaller population base than Westport. Kiltimagh/Knock United, who does well in competitions, also do not come from towns bigger than Westport. Quality of coaching beats population figures any day. We could say that the World Cup final should be China v India on population figures alone. This Celtic/Westport argument needs a broader-minded discussion.

good point.i belive eleven a side matches should not start untill under 13 and before that they should be an 8 a side league. In training they should not go straight into a match but rather do technique drills and a have a match at the end.

well said, hopefully all this arguing can stop now so, childish stuff!!!! both teams have quality teams, full stop!!!! either team could beat the other team on the day!!

The Galacticos make the pilgrimage to Inver United on the 30th November in the third round of the Connacht Cup. This is the time to end the famine and hurt of no Connacht Cup success. Go baby, go!!!
