Condolences with family and friends of the late Simon Delaney, a terrible tragedy. RIP 

[Denn Forever]

Anyone want to make predictions for this weekend's fare?

Hopefully we can do it against Lacken but in the league game, we were doing well for 45 minutes and then Lacken over ran us.  Heres hoping anyway. 

How will your clubs do?

And the Killeshandra game?? I left that one for obvious reasons.

I doubt you'll have any trouble there. Spoke with good few of the lads last w'end and they all tell me that the management has made league promotion a clear priority this season. So much so that amazingly the players seem to have switched of for the championship.

Very dangerous situation for us,Your lads have nothing to play for.No pressure. I did read an interview somewhere a while back with Ciaran O Reilly and he more or less said the same thing.Fair play to Killeshandra they look to have promotion sown up.They may have the right idea,before Redhills last year the 4 previous Intermediate winners had been playing Division 1 football.

True enough, that is the flip side. A team with no pressure on can be dangerous.

Draw in the Park.Details later

[Denn Forever]

Mullahoran snatched a draw from the jaws of victory.  

A low scoring game that Mullahoran kicked away and were leading up to the last minute when they gave away a free about 40 yards out.  So they crowded the kicker and wouldn't retreat to try and intimidate him.  So the ref brought in front of the goal and we had a draw.

Was impressed with the Ballinagh Number 2 (I'd say cornerback but positions don't count).  He didn't seem very big but he was comfortable under the dropping ball, caught well and always seemed to come out with the ball.  Has he been tried at county level?

They as in Mad Eddie who ran from the forwards to run about 6 yards in front of the kicker and was warned twice to move back before free was moved in.  Pity because he scored a great goal and a superb point after it which was worth enough to win most games.  He is some entertainment though!!

The Mullahorn number Daniel Something - I'll look at the programme later - had a super game followed his man out the field and scored 3 points for play... 3 very good points actually....

Ref played for a draw big time, Gumley hit the post with a free when 3 points down and the 4 minutes were almost up... Finnegan scored a cracker to leave one between them and we were all sure the whistle was gonna go.  Ref gave a very soft free against Philip Brady in the middle of the field from the next kick out, then a soft enough one for the equalising free.
