Not saying PMcC had a stinker by any means (in fact he is a class act to watch) just nnoting that he didn't shine the way I would have expected him to and have seen him do in the past and credit for that goes to the close marking he received.

He had a good 1st half when he scored 3 from play and 1 free. He seemed to tire in the 2nd half which was obviously a result of him having just played 4 games in 8 days.

Lads i have waited a long time to make my 1st post but the day has FINALLY arrived for me. We (Aughlisnafin) got our 1st competitive win in 4 years tonight in a hard fought 0-10 - 1-4 victory over Ballykinlar!! Onwards + upwards from here. Have 2 say as well the referee was excellent.

5 teams in the playoffs onion bag? this year there is automatic promotion for first place and 2nd play third for place in league final.
Not true minus, the way I believe it to be is that whoever finishes top of Division 3 goes into the league final with 2nd & 3rd playing of to see who joins them in the league decider.
The winner of the league final is the only team to be promoted from Division 3.

My mistake mournerambler. just checked this and you are spot on!

Great to see. A big up also goes to my Dundrum club mate Philly McGrattan who is jointly in charge of the Finn this year. Congrats.

We drew with Ballykinlar once last season and last beat them around august 2005, that has been our only league points gained since reformation (6 years ago) until tonight.

From what Im hearing Minus is the cornerstone of this newly improved Glenn team. Pundits have dubbed him the 'new Seamie McGuinness.'
