I think i speak for the whole team when I say that promotion was never an issue for the B team as at the start of the season nobody actually thought that even if we won the league we would still not get promoted,that has not changed regarless of what is said on this site,yes it would be a bonus but for me it was only because I believed that we had a good squad and a good chance of winning more matches than we lost that I joined. Personally playing for the a team is of no interest to me and i would say it is of no interest to the majority of the panel at the moment.We usually have 5 subs if not more for evey game so if it was glory and the tag of being a premier player they were interested in surely they could stand on the sideline for the a team just as easily

whatever about our a team,but the b team don't receive any type of preferential treatment from the club let alone paddy cusack.
And while it would be great to have the b team in the premier,my feeling is it would turn the premier into a farce as you would have the likes of fairview,pike the boro(strongest teams in town)packing there b teams to get them promoted to premier also.
Somebody up in the Ldmc should just grow a pair of balls and say yes or no to this thus avoiding the same arguements in future

I dont know anything about Balla getting preferential treatment from him but I think in this case your wrong. I dont think it has anything to do with him. They just havent being playing cos their A team is doing well and when the big matches are on they dont play.

Also I dont think they should be allowed to get promoted if they were to finish in the top 2. For me there should only be 1 team per club in the premier division.

imo i think its b******s that a group of players are being treated like this just because the club their invovled in have two strong teams in junior football and if their putting in the hard work they deserve their reward of playing premier football but saying that they still are along way of this as the other teams in this division will have a major say as to who gets promoted and the top two teams "who" ever they are should go up regardless..

I think he's jelous as his team have fallen by the way side and have no chance of getting promoted, so hence the reason for his dig at Balla "B".

Wont have anything got to do with LDMC if Balla B win promotion, I spoke to the Balla chairman a few months ago and their secretary and they both said that if the B team won promotion it would be a fantastic achievement but the club wont allow it to have 2 teams in the one division as it doesn't make sense,

**Thehoops83** · 15/03/2008, 2:55 PM

Kilmallock will play charleville in the league tomorrow.Kilm were to play st.pats in the lawson but it was called off earlier due to a death in the st.pats club & shannon pitch is unplayable.

**Ballsy** · 16/03/2008, 11:48 AM

Mungret 1 - 1 Dromore. Mungret dominent for 90 minutes but could only find the net once.with a bit more luck mungret could have had a few.great point for dromore in the end.
