Well done to the senior footballers who are now eight games unbeaten and in the semi final of the SFC. On Friday in Burren they beat Rostrevor by five points 2:8 to 0:9.

We got off to a good start, Neill Doran goaling after Ciaran Walsh had punched against the bar. We had much the better of the half but our support play was poor though we still led 1:3 to 0:5 at half time.

We were always ahead though at times uncomfortably so. James Colgan came in on the end of a sweeping move but with the keeper beaten his shot came out off the inside of the post. There remained just a point or two in it until added time when Martin Clarke raced Kieran Sloan to the ball and cheekily lofted it wide of the big keeper and inside the side netting.

The backs defended heroicly and in numbers with Liam mc Veigh, Declan O’Reilly and Joe mc Veigh to the fore; Paul Murney gave a trojan effort in midfield while Aidan Flanagan hit a good patch in the second half. Up front the Clarkes and Aidan Cunningham worked their markers hard.
