Who will top Connacht/Ulster section?

**galwayhoop** · 03/09/2007, 10:49 AM

back on topic, it now looks like Derry City will top this section after beating GUFC who were at home at the weekend. however there are no prizes given out for winning a section and both the top two teams gain an equal advantage as both are at home in the knockout round (assuming the same format as last year).

the race seems to be now between Harps and GUFC for second spot. as Utd have Harps to come at home I reckon it will be GUFC second but you never know.

We lost 3-0 yesterday as we didn't actually turn up. Only 9 players turned up to travel so we didn't go. tbh, the club don't really care about the u-21's this season for some reason.

Poor form for a so called big club. I hope the club will receive a large fine so they will take the league serious or not enter next year.

In Sligo, particularly the more remote rural areas, it is not unknown for
siblings to have the same name.

The recent Central Statistics Office found that of the 78 Michael Kellys in Ballymote, 16 were brothers, 61 were cousins, and one was a transexual, formerly Michelle Kelly.

In Sligo town, names like Britney, Whitney, Shakira and Shania are more popular.

you must really adore your brother if you use his name on this!

the names you listed are better than mary, john paul, barney, patsy, martin, barney junior, barney junior junior, more frequently used in galway

do galway ever use first teamers in the u21 side?

No, none of the players that would be classed as frequent starters. Most of the squad are players aged 18-20 from around the city and county.
