Commiserations to Boyle Celtic


Commiserations to the Boyle Celtic senior team after they were beaten 2-1 on Sunday in the BestWestern Sligo Southern Hotel SuperLeague title decider. 

Niall Brennan equalised just before half-time after Gareth Kelly had scored for the visitors and it was all to play for in the second half. A great save by City keeper Martin Ward denied Dessie Carlos putting Boyle ahead before Damien Scanlon’s lovely lob grabbed victory and all the spoils for City. 

A late chance for a draw from a corner was headed just wide by John Connolly and confirmed Boyle as runners-up for the second year in a row. It was also their first defeat in the league this season which proves how well they performed throughout the campaign. 

Very well done and commiserations to Gerry and all the lads. 

Finally, many thanks for the incredible support for the lads – the large crowd produced a great atmosphere for such an important fixture, we'll see you all again next season as the lads go again for the title.
