Mixed results in Division 3

A 0-9 to 0-13 defeat to Coralstown/Kinnegad last Tuesday night was followed by a 3-11 to 4-5 victory over St Malachy’s last Saturday as we made it two wins from three in Division 3 of the All-County Football League.

Buoyed by a win over St Joseph’s in the opening round, we travelled to Kinnegad for the floodlit fixture in an optimistic frame of mind but, after an evenly-contested first half, the hosts pulled away in the second period with Ger Leech firing them to victory.

We put that setback behind us, however, with a comeback win over St Malachy’s at MJS Builds St James’ Park at the weekend. Despite playing the last 40 minutes with 14 men, two late goals from James Finnegan got us over the line after Nigel Scally had raised our other green flag in the first half.
