Ya man they took the lead and in fairness had a good goal disallowed in the 2nd half,i suppose when your luck is out its tough,we made 5 or 6 changes so the result was a good boost for all the squad.Looks like corbally where unlucky and aisling picked up a good point so its going to be a good battle down the table,and with boro putting it up to pike looks like it will be an exciting 2nd half to the season.

Cracking game, despite the misleadingly one-sided scoreline. Regional had the better of the opening exchanges only to go one down to a controversial goal that was more than likely offside. "Muzzy" was the scorer(!!), feeding off a headed flick from Conor Lynch. "Muzzy" was to make it two soon after, as he ghosted in unmarked at the near post to convert a free-kick that keeper Power probably should have come for. Meanwhile, Declan Nash was running the channels on the right, obviously under orders to take on left-full Aled Harkin, and eventually that approach bore fruit as Harkin hacked him down and instead of taking his booking, decided to kick out at the Regional striker. Red card.

Despite having the extra man, Regional huffed and puffed in the second half. Nash faded out of the game, and their other striker missed two glorious opportunities. Really they failed to use the width of the pitch and made it easy on Janesboro. They were also concerned about Boro's pace on the counter and overruled their manager's requests to push up on a few occasions for this reason. Janesboro were to make it 3-0 from a Tom Clarke free kick, that crept past the wall and into the far corner. Once again Power has to take criticism. He really had an uncharacteristically poor game.

Regional got one back, but Janesboro wrapped it up with a penalty soon after when Power took out Shane Waters who by that point was playing upfront. Power was sent off and Tom Clarke slotted it home past an outfield player to make it 4-1.

A closer game than the scoreline would suggest. Regional are a well organised outfit that maybe lack in cutting edge. Poor goalkeeping and basic defensive errors cost them today but they were more than a match for the league leaders at times.

Very good assessment of the game. A few corrections however. Muzzy was definately onside for the first goal - played in by Lynch.He never got a touch to Harkin's inswinging free kick from half way and Harkin gave Nash a playful shoulder as they were having words following an aerial foul.Nash went down like he had been shot by a sniper.Regional should have had a penalty mid way through the 2nd half with the score at 3-0.A great game of ball by two good sides.

good result for carew with half a team out.

Bit worrying for Pike that the FAI and this silly cup of champions thing are going to mean a fixture back log. I see they have no game again this weekend coming... They probably will be 9 points behind come Sunday and while there are two games in hand, it's going to be a bit of an ask. Still fancy them though.

Good goal disallowed, there was a push on our keeper Passandmove thats why it was disallowed. The ref had a perfect view of it..On the game, summerville never really got going and are going to struggle this year with the squad they have.They have good players that dont seem to want to play for the current management and that is affecting the lads who turn up week in week out.

i think a few the older boys are coming back in, colin gorey should be back for sunday, can only help, colins as good as any centre back on his day. on wembley yesterday, to be fair wembley are too strong for us at the minute, john fitz is a class act altogether, and their very lively up front, in all a good package once they get everyone out on the field. we've had some good battles with them over the yrs and wish them all the best for the season.

Boro will be 9 points ahead of pike after this weekend.points in the bag better than games in hand but it will be close at the end of season as no one will touch the two of them.
