In the Pennine League Div 1, Bros Pearse must have got a few players back and improved significantly this weekend as they only lost to Mitchells by 6 points. Cuchulainns beat Brendan's by 5 or 6, i'm sure brendans abu with correct me on that one. In Div 2, St benedicts beat st anns 0-15 to 1-5 and chester didnt travel to play JFK. Anyone know any other scores from yesterday?
That was never a square ball!!

I was away so wasn't at the game. Was told we were beaten by 4 points and it was cliose until the end.

Mickey Conway had to play 20 minutes because of an injury, Mickey made his debut for Brendans in the late 70's so that give his age away.

Are there may Irish lads on the Isle of Man side, or are they all native islanders?

It's supposed to be a great night out!

There's a fair few Irish on the island, a lot more than we expected. A lot of them seem to be teachers or fellas with trades. A lot of the rugby supporters stayed on after their game to watch ours and there was a lot of interest from them. Hopefully nearly all the teams go over to play them this season as it's great exposure for the game over there.

It must be hard for them to promote the game on the island, you could say they are stuck between a rock and a hard place!

Lancashire should be interesteing this year as Mitchels seem to be just about winning, whilst the Manchester teams are improving.  Any word on the new club in Liverpool?  I din;t think it is a hoax like St Ambrose's was!

The new club Wolfe Tones are definitely forming, they have formally expressed their interest with the county board. Anyone know who the fellas are who are forming the club?

Mitchells beat us by a point in the Junior league last night at Hough End, was a decent standard for a Junior game.

Any other results from last night?

Last night in Pennine League 1 Lawrences beat Bros Pearse by 6/7 points, in Div 2 St Benedicts beat JFK by 2 and on Wed night Young Irelands beat Hugh O'Neills.

Anyone know how Peter's v Anne's went?
That was never a square ball!!

We were beaten by Mitchells by 5 points yesterday, we went in a point ahead at half time but a combination of running out of steam, bad decision making and off course Mitchells playing very well in the second half led to a Mitchells win in sweltering conditions.

Oisins had a cracking result yesterday, anyone at it?


See JFK's didn't travel against Peters, but what about St Benedicts against Ann's?

Vaughans in Hall Green Birmingham is a good place to watch the matches. I would say the Emerald club in Wolverhampton would be your best bet although I haven't watched a game there. The atmosphere would be good in Vaughans with a good few Cork people in there including the owner.

There would be a few around digbeth but not much atmosphere a 3 or 4 mile taxi drive to Vaughans might be worth it if your watcing the hurling tomorrow as there would be a good few hurling lads from both counties.

Mitchells won the league yesterday with a good win over oisins. Final score 3-11 to 2-6 I think.
