[passedit]

It is a measure of the high esteem in which the county board holds St Pauls that they are asked to travel the length of the county to play Newry Mitchels in their backyard then play a league game the following night against a team who refused to play on both the originally fixed date and a second date offered by St Pauls (yet were able to send their reserves to the same venue on the same date!).

Hha good lad, what are Glasdrummand like?

[Brick Tamlin]

dont know why your asking me, i aint from Glassdrumman, i assume they are a good side, and have a few handy footballers, one very talented forward who was centre forward for the county minors this year, Connaire Harrison who can be very dangerous. and also in cormac murphy they have a dead ball specialist but apart from that dont know much else about them 

[dundrumite]

Cant see them fixtures taking place in such a short space of time. Could you imagine the uproar it would cause in the premiership if they were asked to do that??? They are professional athletes whose in- between days would be focused around recovery not bricklaying etc Nah I would be very surprised if we dont get an announcement very shortly.

[down_head]

wel!! do yas no who is favourites for minor championship? wil dey go on and win ulster?

[Mourne Rover]

Can I refer Brick Tamlin and Corn O2 to previous posts about the Quarter Road residents. It is neither Glasdrummand nor Glassdrumman, but Glasdrumman. They are the best footballing side in division three, so perhaps we could take the trouble to spell their name correctly. On a good day, they will also give Warrenpoint quite a game.

mayobridge are the most obvious pick after the kilcoo result it would seem, bredagh as the dark horse

Edit i think you will find that was due to a fixtures c**k up in that saul where to play bosco at bosco and the two teams had arranged the alternative date as bosco could not field then so SAUL accomodated them, then co. board put the original fixtures back in to place where SAUL where to play St Pauls but saul had made other arrangements for the thursday to monday night.
This is the reason for this rearranged fixture Passedit.

It is totally unfair to expect St Paul's to play a league fixture the day after a championship fixture.  It is also unfair on the likes of Glen who are just above Saul and just above the relegation zone as in all likelyhood St Paul's will now lose this fixture where as if they had a couple of days rest would be favourites to win this fixture.

can someone post the odds for the 3 championships and the betting for the matches this weekend if you can get them?

cheers
