17 point turn around in less than 2 months. Some going.

The difference was 15 points in November, but Celtic had 2 games (or 6 points) in hand. Going in to last night's match Rangers were one point ahead, so in effect they had blown an 8 point lead. Still a great turn around for Celtic, but not as great as 17 points.

We were 15 behind, now we're 2 ahead. I'm no mathematician, but I reckon that's a 17 point turnaround.
Happy man today.

He's left the panel.

Lamh Dhearg Ray Matthews Eoin Elliot all got off scot free. The county clearly see's one way!

Wise up son.

[what goes round come round!]

it is also in the spirit of the game to not do what most teams do, in that if a player gets rightly sent off for a sending off offence that their club appeals it?!?! and they no doubt get off on a technocality! or that a team plays an illegal player and serve no punishment!

also if someone in a senior team books their wedding 1 or 2 years in advance do they know that it will affect another club staying in a certain division, away and feel your head pat! it could so easily affect their own club!

and if your not from moneyglass why worry, what goes round come round!

It certainly does.

Why all of a sudden all this talk about teams transferring in players from other clubs?
if you went through every club in div1 football for instance there wouldnt be one team who had at least one player in their squad who is a blow-in!
and its not only happening at senior level, the great lamh dhearg minor team from last year, was a belfast select lol
it happens so put up with it! and it happens as much in south west as does in south antrim!
gerard o'boyle(creggan/cargin), ryan boyd (randalstown/moneyglass), aidy scullion (ahoghill/rasharkin), mark mcnicholl (randalstown/creggan), phelim mccloskey (randalstown/ portglenone), paddy logan (ahoghill/ballymena).........
need i go on! portglenone even get players from bellaghy reserves!

as for moneyglass getting relegated, its over a season you get relegated not one match in which you aint involved! some clubs should clean up their own backyard before looking at others!

good luck to st galls and all antrim teams involved in ulster!

So its ok for Rasharkin to put out a team which conceded 6-19 to Ahoghill? If I was from Moneyglass I wouldn't be happy. Although theres no rule against it, it's against the spirit of the game.

just after wittnesing the fix of the year i wonder how much aghogill paid st galls tonight to prevent them being sent into div 2 and for st galls to score 1 point in the second half tells its own story.it hasnt been the first time that they got a favour and prob wont be the last hold your heads down in shame

I take it your club didn't do enough throughout the year to stay safe?

That makes it ok for a club to play weak teams? (I don't know what team St Galls had out)

Whose Frank Mitchell?

Our Frank Mitchell.

I quite like Rogne, he isn't that good though. I'd Mulgrew is probably our best central defender (how times have changed), Wilson looked ok til the Rangers game, Maj and Loovens are donkies. Rogne is decent, he was nowhere near POTY of the year though. He was the weak link in the CIS final, and our season fell apart from there. If he's fit I'd play him,the problem is he's rarely fit.

Those saying we'd have won a leagge with Mowbray in charge are clueless. He's a good manager in the championship. There's a different pressure of being in charge of Celtic, Mowbray obviously couldn't handle that. His signings were also, for the most part, woeful.

Rogne may start if he wasn't injured all the time, he's no great shakes either though.

Bangura looks decent so far, dodgy first touch and hasn't got a sniff of anything around the box but he's barely played 2 full games. Hopefully he gets a bit of a run in the side. Wanyama looked good last night too. In him, Kayal, Ki and Ledley we have an embarassment of riches in central midfield compared to other positions in the side.

Paul McGrane?

To the best of my knowledge thats correct. I also believe that neither John and Tony Mac or Geezer did'nt either.

Geezer enjoys a pint

That's an exaggeration. Geezer takes a pint.

Does he force it down then?

Another glorious moral victory to add to the pantheon of moral victories of Irish soccer. Spurs reserves didn't know what hit them for an hour (it was chronic bad luck). A special word too for the suppporters who didn't urge anyone to "fcuk off and die" - legends.

Who pissed on your cornflakes?

He doesn't/didn't play McCourt because he isn't very good. We only 'needed a goal' in the last 5 minutes, so I can't criticise Lennon for not making a change then. I can criticise him for a lot of other stuff, but thats beside the point. Samaras on before Stokes is ridiculous, though it should have been another midfielder on at that stage of the game anyway.

His persistence with Samaras is the main factor in turning me against him.

Highlights of hurling and football on TG4 tonight.

St Galls are always there abouts, thats where my money would be going.

Odds probably aren't great, and they've a county final next week. I'd say they'll still be strong though.

Haven't seen another thread on this.

The groups are on there, it messes up when you copy and paste. Anyone any fancies? Can't see any bookies taking bets on it yet.
