Prediction
Granville 3-1 Caherdavin
The Beautiful Game
Some shock results the weekend. Big wins for moyross balla and Shannon town. Granville won as expected. Looks like fairview and dromore for the drop. As for final cant see anything but a Granville win.
Any score or report on the final lads ?
5-5 caherdavin 4-2 on pens - great stuff
what a crazy game,exciting stuff in terms of what happened,but no defending ,loads of mistakes,no team capable of stringing few pass,s together,at least 7 or 8 goals from corners and frees barely a standout player,except maybe meehan for caherdavin and byrnes for granvile[he scored a cracker],the sub? for caherdavin who scored 2 goals made a difference.tbf caherdavin showed more hunger for it,this particular granvile outfit,on tonights display would be cannonfodder for premier teams.
Lots of mistakes alright from both teams but that's what happens in the cup. But we don't care!!!! Coz its our first time winning anything in this division so we are gonna party HARD!!!!! what a game and what a come-back after being 3-1 and 5-4 down. Mon the Celts :-D
very quiet zizou?? what happened yee overconfident?? need a lot of players to stay in the premier league next season from what i saw last night..
Not great football but great entertainment...well done Caherdavin
Congradulations to Caherdavin on winning the cup on Friday night. On the game itself there is so much to report given the 10 goals scored and then the pens which followed extra time so I won't go into the detail except to say that from a Granville perspective we were disappointed to loose it. Having said that if we were in Caherdavin's position we would have taken it so again congrats to them. On the season so far I think anyone from Granville at the beginning of the season would take where we are right now i.e. top of the league and runners up in the cup. Sea Bird, in relation to your comment "need a lot of players to stay in the premier league next season".....how can you even say that when we haven't been promoted ? also, even if we do get there how often does a team begin a Premier league season with the same panel they finish a Div 1a season with ? my point is our panel could be stronger or weaker than it currently is, who knows what will happen in the close season. Why don't you give a little praise to the teams in Div 1a that are working hard to gain promotion or avoid relegation ? Next up in the league for us is Caherdavin away next Sunday and we will be ready and up for it. Should be a good one considering the events of last Friday night. This is what Junior football is all about.
Very well said Gerrard1. I think in terms of the game itself, Granville started way better than us and we looked very nervous and we went 3-1 down after 20 minutes. It was only then did we start to play the way we can, looking very dangerous when we were going forward. I must say I really feared for us when we went 3-1 down. But we really showed some great determination to score that goal before half time to make it 3-2. After the break we were definitely the better team and it was Granville's turn to get nervous. The amount of mistakes from both teams can only be attributed to the fact that anything can happen in the cup!!! Be very surprised if there'll be 10 goals on Sunday in the league![]()
Result - Sun 24/03/2013 - Caherdavin 0 - 1 Granville
We secured promotion on Sunday morning with a hard fought 1 nil win over Caherdavin at the Greenhills. The pace of the game was hectic for the first half hour and we scored the only goal of the game when a free kick from Cian Byrnes was spilled by the home keeper and Greg Barrett followed up to score close in. Both teams made changes to their line ups from the Cup final. We had some great chances to increase our lead with 2 notable one on ones with the Caherdavin keeper and we also hit the crossbar 3 times (one of which was not really an opportunity created by us as the ball bounced right in front of the home keeper and he did well to push the ball onto the crossbar and over). Caherdavin were a threat mainly from set pieces and they had a one on one of their own but our keeper Rob Power made an excellent save. Great credit is due to our panel of players for responding in the way they did for this game given the cup final defeat a couple of weeks ago. The full panel on the day was....Rob Power, John Togher, Jeff Ryan, Ollie Kenny, John Cahill, Brian O'Doherty, Liam Quinn, Greg Barrett, Stephen Cahill, Ken O'Donoghue, Cian Byrnes, Mark McDonnell, Neil McGourty and Niall Doran.
Sville 1-0 Caherdavin
An early goal gave us a vital win. Caherdavin battered us in the second half and must be said were unlucky but great to see our lads respond like this after our cup loss to them. Caherdavin missed a pen in what turned out to be the last kick of the game In the 7 th min of injury time.
