Thats avoiding the point, all of those players have local clubs that they can play with and I think a fair few of them have since left the club. I reiterate my point that since players are now playing for their home clubs the league is becoming more competitive.

Obviously with the right people in charge St.Michaels have some very good young players that can become a very good team.

Although Clonmel Celtic, Bansha Celtic and Rock Rovers are all starting to produce young talent so the challenge is there. Do you think St.Michaels can get back to the top

Anyone get any results from yesterday..?nothing on website.. Did Town win in MJC.. saints beat ballingarry, by all accounts was a stroll in the park which was surprising..

**stephen07** · 22/10/2007, 7:28 AM

The only results I heard were St.Michaels winning ( which I have to agree was a surprise at the extent of the victory - thats usually a tough fixture for anyone) and Bansha Celtic winning.....anyone else got any news ?

I think Clonmel Town got a walkover from Killusty.
Old Bridge beat Burncourt 3-1, Cahir beat Vee Rovers 2-0.

**balls** · 22/10/2007, 4:26 PM

clonmel celtic surprisingly beaten by galbally 2-0. i fancied celtic for a decent run in this comp after hammering borris 5-0 last week

**bishbash** · 22/10/2007, 11:45 PM

to be fair clonmel celtic had a weak team out missing 5 1st team players added to that they missed a lot of chances and galbally took theirs. celtics problems are far from over every wk their is a different team and half the players dont know what teammates they will have from week to week.

It is really unfortunate to hear that. The TSDL really needs the teams like Clonmel Celtic to get it together and make the league more interesting. It is at least good to see that some of the teams are improving from last year and hopefully with a few upsets the league can do itself justice by becoming competitive this year.

No major upsets in the MJC.... any predictions for winners at this early stage?

clonmel town st michaels carrick or pike rovers........ winners will come from one of these four... and the fact saints n town meet in round 2 will make it interesting...

**daz22** · 23/10/2007, 12:18 PM

carrick are big outsiders,it is between pike and clonmel but one other outside team always causes an upset

**bishbash** · 23/10/2007, 4:03 PM

Cant see any one stopping clonmel town they are streets ahead of every other team. in the tipp league they could probably put out a 2nd 11 and finish 1st and 2nd in the premier and im not exagerating! ps im a clonmel celtic fan!

Paul Scullys knees will barely survive the rigours of the regular season so I'm fairly certain that he wont be available for the OT side. IMO M.Coady is the best lb/lm in the league at the moment, i'll be surprised if he doesnt play.

Town v Michaels should be a belter with the winner playing the Bridge. For a dark horse outsider i'm going to have a tenner on Lisselton from Kerry.

**stevie11** · 24/10/2007, 9:30 AM

Surely Richard Ryan of Town has ta start in the goal,never mind the squad!!absolute joke if he aint involved..Better keeper then flipper by a country mile..

..All depends who de manager picks,as you can c from last years team,he cud come up with absolutely anything!!!

**daz22** · 24/10/2007, 10:27 AM

i agree wit you on richie ryan,quality commanding keeper.best in the league,would not be playing for the best team if he was not!!ya hear the manager is liable to do anything

My team would be if all available : derek Breen, chris higgins, james walsh,paul breen, michael coady,dwayne burns,andrew cosgrove,tony scully, ken ryan, paul kennedy, aaron moroney

subs,
darren byrne, donal duggan, michael ryan, ian fraher,raymie condon alan coady pa quinn richie ryan( toss up between keepers really, a bit of favouritism in my selection lol)

**bishbash** · 24/10/2007, 1:27 PM

best possible oscar traynor.

J. Ryan

p. Tobin m. coady
p.breen J.Walsh

Dwayne burns p.scully davy Ryan Adam Mcsharry

Moroney Kennedy

a strong arguement could be made for t. scully i. barnes.

i went for the celtic keeper even though he is a loose canon he is a pretty good keeper.

**balls** · 24/10/2007, 4:20 PM

how far of fitness is adam mcsherry. how come he didnt sign back with town. he is a class act. if celtic c�n get him andy cosgrave and paddy wack firing on all cylinders they ll have no problems attacking. just need to sort out there defence
