ACFL Division 4
The club’s season officially last Saturday in Michael Moran Park when we played Carrickedmond in the first round of the Division 4 league. Ahead by 4 points at half time, we let this lead slip and were eventually beaten 2-12 to 0-12. The team and scorers were as follows:
Cody Lee, Paul McGee, Stephen Cosgrave, Declan Donnelly, Ciaran Cooney, Darren Farley, Tom McGee, Mark Breslin (0-1), Mikie O’Neill, James McCann, Eoin Keane (0-3), Jamie Nertney (0-2), Petie Collum (0-1), Podge Gill (0-2), Stephen Donnelly (0-3)
Subs used:
Philip Kane, Kevin Whelan, Gearoid Nertney, Kevin Whitney and Scott Howe
It is not too often we see a father and son playing alongside each other but that’s what happened in the second half when Gearoid Nertney came in and played alongside his son Jamie. A proud moment for the Nertney household.

Best Wishes
Everyone at Fr. Manning Gaels would like to congratulate Thomas Gill on the occasion of his retirement as the local CE supervisor. Thomas has been in the role for over 30 years and has always gone above and beyond the call of duty for the local area and the Fr. Manning Gaels club, ensuring that our grounds at Monaduff have been kept to the highest standard at all times. We would like also like to wish the incoming supervisor Francis McNerney the very best of luck. We are extremely appreciative of the work Thomas has put in over the decades and he will be greatly missed in this job but we know that he will continue to be a vital part of the club for many years to come, just as he always has been. Fad saoil duit in aice na sláinte, a Thomáis
