Dont agree, more space = more ablity to exploit weaker teams or be exploited by stronger teams. We can be a tough team to beat on a tight pitch where the bigger sides like westport are easier to close down and have less time on the ball. Easier attack on the break then too.

I expect we will be alot fitter this year and stronger in depth...there seems to be more organisation and committment about us so far so hopefully it continues all season and we have our best 16 available every week when it starts.
what could happen? if manulla b went up and manulla a went down, the next season, manulla would register their best players b so they would have their strongest squad playing super league. doesn't matter whether its a or b team, the club would still have a team in super league
To be honest Castlebar Celtic will have a strong side due a number of players that have returned from other leagues. As for S/f will they at least have History at playing the highest level.
Think of Fahy or Kilmore, they are just kick around teams, who will do no justice to the Super League. Only leave red faces to those who run it.
Sorry to say I can't share the same enthusiasm as you do
What enthusiasm are you referring to there? TheBoy was saying that Castlebar and S+F are stronger than Fahy and Kilmore, which is fair enough. Why you have to jump in criticising teams before they even get a chance to play in the league is beyond me.
Just what is a ´kick around team´? How does a team ´do justice to the Super League´? And why would the performance of two teams ´leave red faces to (sic) those who run it´? What, basically, are you talking about?
This makes no sense, its hard to argue with your point when you cant communicate it yourself in a small paragraph...
Communicate it yourself?
That hardly makes sense either.
Meaning he can't communicate his point to us!!
If he could, then we might be able to argue the point.
Loving your name
i think he means that ye are a country team with a lot less technical ability than the other teams and ye will try to 'oof it and kick other teams off the pitch to try and get results.
not my view, but i thinks its what the renovator is trying to say!!!

Not long since Celtic used to try to beat teams by hoofin, long balls, kicking other teams off the pitch. Seemed to work most of the time under Dykes, something he was well known for himself!
If we have to take a leaf outta their book to get results I for one would be happy to do so
By the way, not to burst your urban bubble you think you live in but we're all country teams in the ML. The alternative is city and there's no city in Mayo last time I checked
look mate, i said that that is not my opinion of fahy rovers. i think that is what the renovator was trying to say. my opinion of fahy rovers is that ye are a tough, physical side that work hard for each other and are hard to beat, something similar to erris.Renovator/hoop4life

don't know why ye keep referring back to the dykesy era. yes, two years ago, he played long ball football and i wasn't in favour of it but it got results and if ye get results by doing the same, then good luck to ye. everytime the subject of any team playing direct football comes up, everyone mentions celtic under dykesy. no one ever mentions the good football that we played before him of after him, do they??
as for the urban bubble gag, i'm not going arguing with you about culchies or townies but i've lived in a major town for over 50 years and wouldn't consider myself or castlebar celtic to be country!!
as i said in previous posts, i think fahy will be a tough side to beat for teams and i think that it is good to see new blood in the super league, like ye and kilmore so don't be trying to start arguements when i'm encouraging ye and kilmore in the super league and hoping ye do well to shake things up and make the super league more interesting.

Never said it was a bad thing to be a physical side...
Nobody labels sides as country or town these days, bit old fashioned to think that a side from a town would play a nicer style of football? but as you say no point in arguing that one. In the eyes of Dublin we're ALL culchies!
Hopefully we do ok in the SL, good to see some people would like to see us do well, just like we would like to see Celtic fly the flag for Mayo in the A League
when is celtic's 1st game in the A league? has there been any fixtures given out yet for the SL?
I had worked out that that was what he meant Hoop, I just wanted to point out to him that everything he writes is rendered incomprehensible by mixed metaphors, cliches, jargon and jumbled up sentences. For ´kick around´ he presumably meant ´kick-about´, ´leave red faces to those who run it´ I´m guessing is some mix of ´egg on their faces´ and ´red in the face´, ´do justice to the Super League´ is just a heap of ****, but might have something to do with´do themselves justice in the Super League´. His wonderfully random ´sorry to say I cant share the same enthusiasm as you do´ is a reference to absolutely nothing whatsoever.i think he means that ye are a country team with a lot less technical ability than the other teams and ye will try to 'oof it and kick other teams off the pitch to try and get results.

I would have no problem with any of this, and wouldn´t be so pedantic either, if he didn´t insult teams who have yet to kick a ball in the Super League. We may well finish bottom and play unstylish football, but at least wait until it happens before you start hurling abuse.
The whole world is not against you,dont worry...Please stop trying to be petty about everything....Or are you a professor of english.Everytime someone says something,you have to be politically correct even about the vocabulary people use
1924 stop trying to rise people because it always ends with you rising quicker than a priest in a barney suit!
Get back to football talk
Thats a very rich coming from you!!!!!!1924 stop trying to rise people because it always ends with you rising quicker than a priest in a barney suit!
Get back to football talk
Look at your colleagues posts,keep it to football as you say!!
i dont know. the a league is starting on the 5th of april but the fai have told celtic that they wont have to play any games until they are finished in the connaught cup
could be a bit of a banana skin for us on the opening day. where is it being played?? if its in the astro we will win it comfortably. celtic played charlestown yesterday in celtic park. won 6-1. very impressive second half. passed them off the pitch
ya but they are division 2.... ye're a super league team. Ye would want to have a little bit more ability/fitness than them at this stage of the season to be honest
