ACFL Division 1 

We had a disappointing result last Saturday against Carrickedmond when losing 0-13 to 0-9 in Michael Moran Park. Trailing 0-4 to 0-2 at half time after playing against a gale, it died down significantly in the second and Carrickedmond raced six clear on the resumption. The team rallied with a couple of great long-range scores from Conor Keenan, converted frees from Martin Cassidy for fouls on himself and Pauric Gill, and Gill had an opportunity for a goal to level proceedings but was flicked over the bar by the keeper. Missed opportunities and handling errors cost us from narrowing the gap further and Carrickedmond kicked on again to win by four. Our next match is Wednesday week at home to Granard. The Division 4 team has a bye this weekend. The team and scorers were as follows: Paddy Collum (0-1, 1f), Paul McGee, Cian Brady, Stephen Cosgrave, Emmet Noonan, Gary Connell, JP Farley, Sean Whelan, Liam Lynch, Mark Hughes, Conor Keenan (0-2), Pauric Gill (0-1), Martin Cassidy (0-5, 4f), Podge Gill, Dean Cosgrave. Subs used: Mark Breslin, Kaelum Gill 

 

Sympathy 

The club was saddened to learn of the passing of Michael Walsh (Smear) formerly of Ballinamuck. Mickey was a strong player who played with the club in the early 70s and our deepest sympathies are extended to his family and friends. Solas na bhFlaitheas air
