Who got the goals in both games big win for rathkeale what happened broadford?

My apologies "clearly"
So NCW now have B.garry and A.feale left (both away)
and R.keale have Askeaton and Carrig left (both at home)
It could go to the last day of the season.
Congrats to Creeves on winning Div3, and Kilcolman on winning Div2

Rathkeale's goal scorers were Peter o'dea ( what a goal), Alan o'shea 2, thomas walsh 2 and mark o'sullivan 1

I agree 'clearly' but is there any signs up outside the grounds. I must complement Broadford on the set up that is with in Cove Park. It is by far the best i have seen at junior level. We played Listowel Celtic this season in the FAI and i taught i wuold not see a ground that would match it but its fare to say i did last Sunday. Well done to all involved.

There is two "No Dogs" signs up outside the ground, she was also asked by our chairman to put the dog in the car, she refused saying said she would keep him on the clubhouse steps, 5 minutes later and for the rest of the match she was across the way...dont like giving out too much SKY BLUE, Rathkeale are okay and welcome to Broadford....ye wont beat us 6:0 there again...

Rovers scorers were Iain Corbett, Seorise Joyce, Adam Collins, Darragh Barrett

Killeaney 0-0 Athea Utd.
Killeaney hit woodwork three times, missed two sitters, had one cleared off the line, missed penalty 2 mins from time and totally outplayed Athea for long periods in the 2nd half. Tough encounter before a large attendance. Great result for Adare Utd.

Granagh Utd. 3-0 Shountrade

Premier Division
Glin Rovers 2 Ballingarry 4
Abbeyfeale Utd 0 Newcastle West 1
Rathkeale 2 Carrig Celtic 1

I find it hard to believe that both Glin Rovers and Abbeyfeale United are now involved in a relegation dogfight on the last day. I suppose that Ballingarry have the toughest match against Newcastlewest.I think that Rathkeale will win the Premier league after a tough encounter with Askeaton. The 2nd Div.League Cup Final should be interesting as Rockhill Rovers will be missing a few regulars on Friday night. Given that they usually perform well in Clounreask, having won there over the years on a regular basis, I think they are a good bet. I haven't seen enough of Mountcollins to really give an opinion on their chances. Kildimo United and Killeaney could be a cracker on Saturday evening. Killeaney just fell short on winning Div. 1, the backlog of games probably went against them in the long run. Kildimo United also fell away in the closing stages, so there isn't much between them. I'd go for Kildimo United if only for the reason that they maybe fresher than Killeaney.

Good year of football all round. Rathkeale should and in my opinion will win the premier league this weekend and do the double with the cup. Good team that play nice football and they deserve it. The battle from NCW came too late.

Could be messy with relegation though. Ballingarry on a real run and i heard NCW have a few injuries that won't be playing and are going to try out alot of youth players thinking of next season. Could be tight for Abbey and Glin.

Great to see Killeaney back to the premier league.With the facilities they have they should never have been down in Div 1. Congrats to Adare but i can't say the same for their place.

There are too many bad pitches in the top flight now. NCW Rovers is a disgrace they don't play half their matches at home during the year. I know Carrig are relegated but i won't say im sad to lose their pitch. If Ballingarry jumped Glin on Sunday id wouldn't be bad as it would be a shame to have their facilities in Div 1 again.
Its just a bad reflection on the desmond league with poor quality facilities.

i must agree with you on that..cant see rathkeale losing or drawing with askeaton on sunday and if they win the league they deserve it after the poor start ncw had at the start of the season..could be a tough game for ncw against ballingarry who are on a good run and fighting to stay in the top flight..if ncw win it wud be sad to see ballingarry go down with great facilities..carrig isnt bad thou.nice dressing rooms and training pitch and the field isnt bad either..ill agree with u on the ncw rovers field and with adare utd coming up also with poor facilities...killeaney coming back to the premier is good to see.good team and great facilities..
