I reckon Avenue will be the team to beat this year... From what I hear they are very strong this year.
Good luck to all for the up coming season. Any predictions for this weekends games??

Predictions
1 Lifford
2 Bunratty
3 Avenue
4 Newmarket
5 Moher

Can't see Avenue doing much this season, they seem to be struggling so far in pre season, as was evidenced during the week when they where lucky to beat a Rock Rovers 11, 2-0 whom were missing 8 of there starting cup final team.
Lifford to appear to be a much better drilled team who play much better football.

Anyone have reports from todays matches?

**CousinSylDolan** · 01/09/2008, 9:27 AM

Avenue Utd 11/4
Bunratty 7/4
Newmarket Celtic 11/2
Lifford 11/2

Bit unrealistic I feel considering Bunratty were a 1st division team 2 years ago.

I agree but you know that with the current squad they will be title challengers.was their win convincing yesterday?

Moher were weakened a lot by a few Gaelic football matches yesterday. All of their main players bar 1 (M Hoey) were not there.

I know Newmarket lost 3-1 to Lifford last night but are there any other results. Also, Lifford left Newmarket Blowing car horns and yelping out car windows like a bunch of mental patients, sad really as i thought only Rineanna did this

**MikeBassett** · 03/09/2008, 12:26 PM

Moher 2-2 Corofin
Bunratty 1-1 Bridge Celtic
Avenue 6-0 Bridge Utd
Rineanna 2-2 Burren

agreed... but if the horn blowing is true... it's sounds a bit like what an under 14 team would do!! on the other hand the lifford lads have had their backsides handed to them by newmarket over the past few seasons including denying them their 1st title win(in donkeys years) on the last day of the season a few years back. personally i'm delighted they beat them and i'm sure the lifford lads will be fired up to do the double over them this season!
also i'm certain that there was handshakes from all players after the game.... win lose r draw the lifford lads would be 1st to offer the hand!
