Limerick Division 1A 2011/12

[Zizou]

Granville 0-2 Geraldines
A closer game than this scoreline suggests, we were a match for the Dines in most areas, but they buried two of their chances in the game, whilst we were denied by great defending and poor finishing. A tough game played out in the sunshine and on a fine pitch at Glenbrook. Credit goes to the groundsmen for their work in the last fortnight. A nice crowd watched us set about Geraldines early on and we had a few shots just over their bar. Then a powerful drive from distance was too hot for our keeper to handle, and they mopped up the crumbs. We were very unhappy going in a goal down at half time. We had our best spell for the opening 15 mins of the second half, and only for a superb block on the line would have drawn level. We missed several other half chances before being punished for slack marking on a corner. 2-0 and we still had time to blow another chance, or rather I did, late on.
A hard defeat to take, but congratulations to Paul and Geraldines on securing promotion to the Premier League next term. For us its back to the grind Tuesday night.
Best for us: Olly Kenny.

This was a good game.Have seen geraldines a few times this season and this was the worst i seen them play by a long shot but i suppose you have to credit granville for that.On this showing they surely will not get relegated.Always felt watching the game that Geraldines would win and bar one good chance which was blocked it never really looked to me like the Geraldines back 4 were in trouble.Thought Madden at center back was excellent as was the right full.Thought granvilles left full did well and also there 2 boys in the middle as Geraldines have some very good players in there that granville stopped from playing.If Granville mantain that level then i cant see them being relegated.

hope he gives it a good crack next yr in the premier league, one of the better centre halves in town when he puts his mind to it.

Shannon Town 0-4 Dines

[Lev Yashin]

Well and truly hammered last night. Geraldines are very strong and have improved massively since we played them last. If they keep that squad they Will do well in the premier.
