Warrenpoint Town now in Irish League Premiership.

Dingo and Rambo? That's no good to those of us unfamiliar with nicknames.We need birth certificate names.

I thought you knew a bit about Warrenpoint they way you've been going on about them recently?

[Ulick]

Doubtful they used Rambo and Dingo on their loan applications.

Why would they?

[All of a Sludden]

This is Rambo's second big win of the year, he recently made a few appearances for the winners of the North Louth Winter League. Allegedly.  He wasn't using the name Rambo or even his own name while playing in the NLWL. 

[T Fearon]

Obviously given the nickname either his real Christian name is Sylvester or his real surname is Stallone?

It's amazing that 2 years ago when Warrenpoint Town were winning IFA Championship 2 and Newry City were being relegated that the majority of the players who secured the 'Point's promotion were languishing the Carnbane League.
Stevie Moan up until last year was captain of Newry Celtic. Two years ago Rambo was playing up front for the Bessbrook Utd team which reached the Junior Cup final whilst younger brother Dingo was up front for Cleary Celtic. Kenny Kearns was also part of the Bessbrook Utd side that reached that Junior Cup final. Mark Hughes was playing for Crieve Rovers and Stephen "Giggsy" McCabe was lining out for Windmill Stars. Only for Newry's relegation and subsequent reliance on local players they might never have got a chance at this level. With Newry's demise Barry Gray wasted no time in getting these lads. Fair play to all of them, junior to senior football in two years is a great achievement.

No doubt it is a momentous achievement and shows the benefit of recruiting and playing talent from the junior leagues unlike Donegal Celtic probably paying a bunch of has beens over the odds.Newry have definitely missed out here. I'd say Gray will be in big demand now as well.

Didn't Cliftonville pluck Gormley straight out of the lower leagues too?

Yeah there's no doubt that Newry at the very least would earned a spot in the play off this year had they stayed afloat. Gray probably missed the boat in getting these lads two years ago by not thinking they were good enough but he wasted no time when given a second chance.

Cliftonville got Gormley from an Amateur League club. Plenty of those clubs would be of a similar standard to those at Championship One level but they just don't have the required facilities to get a licence.

[DownFanatic]

Good few GAA men on that Point side.

Kevin Anderson of Annaclone, Stevy Moan of Newry Bosco and Johnny and Shaun Parr of Rostrevor.

John Boyle and Johnny Cowan were also big players for the gah club in the town but they didn't play in their run to the Ulster IFC final last year.

All very true, good to see these guys getting a chance at the higher level having proved themselves on the way up.

Boyle and Cowan both back playing GAA for the point too now just to note, along with Gary Boyle who is also in the squad.
