Any score from the Wanderers match?
Ya I heard Avondale should have been 2 or 3 up at half time and then just never turned up for the second half. Ucc missed a load of sitters apparentlyQuote:

wanderers were missing 5 first team players as well so by all accounts it was a great result for the wans, give credit to cobh as ye all seem to have written them off as no hopers

This final was billed as a cracker and it lived up to expectation in full. In horrible horrible conditions both sides played their part in a classic game that Mount won in Extra time thanks to a Ken Hoey special. The move for the winning goal was worthy of winning any final and was possible just about deserved in the end. Penos is no way to finish a final. At that stage most of the Mary's players wouldn't have been able to take their spotters anyway due to cramp. About six times play had to be stopped for their players to get attention, it just showed the amount of effort thier players had put into tonight and hat's off to them they ran themselves into the ground to a man.
Rockmount took the lead after two minutes when a cracking Willie Byrne corner was headed home by the Duracell like Aidan O Mahony. The lad went on to cover an incredible amount of ground for the next 120 mins. The game became a midfield battle from then til half time with Rockmount slightly shading things. Mary's dominated the second half with the assistance of the hurricane winds and made it count with about 25 mins left. Mark Power was by far the busiest of the keepers in this half, Dave the save in the other end was hardly troubled til 10 mins from time.
Rockmount reponded well and Buttsy had a great chance after coming on when he sped passed the defenders down the left and just fired over the top. Extra time was dominated by Rockmount and although the spotters were looming they lifted the energy again to score the winner. Ross o Callaghan beautifully glanced a header to Gearoid down the left and his smashing cross cleared the incoming Aidan O Mahony and was controlled at the back post by the imperious Hoey. He buried what proved to be the winner and another cup went back to the Whitechurch outfit's cabinet.
My toes are now back with me. Very enjoyable night.
Ha Ha I remember him!:D Can't believe he got his place ahead of Stuart Coakley.Quote:

For the very first time on this forum Cliffy I'd have to agree, I've been attending games at the Cross for over 25 years and last night is up there with the coldest & wettest i've ever seen.Quote:

Given the shambles that is the Ramblers goalkeeping situation, I wouldn't be laughing.Quote:

Just saying that, if you have quality at U/17 then what's the rush to throw them into senior?
I know that team quite well - and they are not ready yet to play at that level.
Mind you -when they are ready it'll be a case of "get out of the way quick"!

Did not think it was a peno either.Leeds deserved it. Ringmahon never threatened. Got a lucky goal.
