We apparently lost 4-0 to Derry today but seemingly it was an improvement!

was at the game in the brandywell.. dont have the lineup to hand but we had a new goalie making his debut he was apparently on trial no sign of the lativan lad on trial.colm rigby from youths played again.. shane o'brien town youth came on ... chris kelly and mark hutchison werent asked back at all... spoke to adrian murphy at the game he will be out for three to four weeks..ray kenny didnt travel up.. i did a rough draft of the squad and will have it up tomorrow nite..

glynn should have scored in the second half he blazed over the bar in the second half with the goal at his mercy.. not a lot happened really.. derry were way taller and stronger than us..

apparently we are playin shiven rovers on tuesday night away ( they are based in the roscommon district league). ronnie b do you know anything about them considering they are out your way.. i think shiven rovers are out in ballygar which is a five miles out the galway road from roscommon..

they play in the roscommon and distric league...not exactly the best standard now...but they have a good setup up there...the town trained there a few times in the last while...

stephen gough didnt travel either to the match and andy bermingham didnt start at all.. i get the impression that andy wont start too many games this season he seems to be goughs battering ram..

I know shiven, played against them many moons ago when their pitch was called "sheep **** " rovers. Some transformation.

I played on that pitch in Newbridge years ago and we had to clear sheep off the field before we could start the game .......................... I think its been done up though as the RDL play Oscar Traynor cup games there.

How did the former Athlone Town contingent play?

As for Shiven. Decent facilities out there. Cant remember exact directions, its
been a few years since I was out that direction but ...
If your heading from Athlone, head out the Tuam Road as far as Ballyforan,
then take the Ballygar Road and a few miles out that road theres a sign for
Newbridge. Shiven is out that road somewhere

Doh! Just copped that that game isnt on, so ingore the directions :p
