Title Dreams are over

The senior team travelled to Carbury FC last Sunday with high hopes of re-claiming the league leadership and putting all the pressure back on City Utd. Unfortunately, things didn't work out for the lads and with a missed penalty and a red card, they succumbed 4-1, thus finishing as runners-up and handing the title to City.

Whilst the result is a disappointment, the lads should reflect with pride on a great season and continuing improvement. Over the last four seasons, they have finished 4th, 3rd, 3rd again and now runners-up - and they still have two cups to play for this season, with a Robert Cawley Memorial Cup semi-final against Ballymote Celtic, in Ballymote, this Friday at 7.30pm next up.

Well done to all involved with the panel, but especially Owen O'Donohoe who has continued to play whilst also managing and training the lads - a very special and much-appreciated effort from Owen.
