On Sunday morning we welcomed Rathnew to Dunbur for the Wicklow U20 football B championship semi-final. St. Patricks started well with Jack Dunne opening the scoring with a goal. Both teams upped the intensity of the game and went in at half time level: St. Patricks 1-05 Rathnew 1-05. Rathnew opened the scoring in the second half with St Pats drawing level with a goal from Luca Rampersaud and a free from Jack Dunne. Unfortunately Rathnew held on at the end to win by the narrowest of margins – Full Time: St. Patricks 2-07 Rathnew 2-08. Rathnew go on to play Eire Og Greystones in the final.

Team: Pat Sammon, Ken O'Grady, Rossa Marron, Eli Graham, Robert Moffitt, Cian Reynolds. Hugh Humby, Ronan Murray, Patrick O'Keane, Matt Traynor, Luca Rampersaud, James Byrne, Cian O'Brien,  Jack Kelly, Jack Dunne, ,

This brings the curtain down on the playing fields for 2018, Thank you to all the players, parents and supporters for an exciting year in the history of St. Patricks.

All in St Patricks wish referee John Keenan and Ciaran Coffey a full recovery from a severe accidental clash of heads at the beginning of the second half when they were attended to by medics and personnel from both clubs.

 

An excerpt from the Leather Echo: In 1975 St. Patrick’s won a football title that was never won before and may never be won again (Until this year). There was an Under-20 football championship that year and they beat Rathnew in the final in Ashford.
