Newcastle came from 0-1 down to beat Killeaney 2-1 tonight. I think Seoirse Joyce scored the 2 Newcastle goals. Also heard Rathkeale beat Ballingarry on Pens in the League Cup semi final.
Looks like we're going to have a 'Relegation Super Sunday' this weekend

.
N.C.W Rovers probably have the toughest match, away to Ballingarry who are still in the Desmond Cup. The other 2 teams are at home but hopefully all teams play full strength sides...

Glin Rovers V Broadford Utd (Draw) 1-1
Killeaney V Abbeyfeale Utd (Home) 3-1
Ballingarry V Newcastle West Rovers (Away) 1-2

What happens if Glin draw and Rovers & Killeaney win??

I think there would be a play off in Clounreask?

3 way play off lads killeaney and rovers won and glin drew. you couldn't write it.

**fanaticfan** · 19/05/2013, 1:20 PM

glin 1-1 broadford
ballingarry 0-1 ncw rovers
killeaney 2-0 abbeyfeale

broadford went 1-0 up through shaka and glin levelled through dolly. glin should have been 3-0 up but 2 off the line clearances by john kelliher kept broadford in it. gary culhane was outstanding in defence for glin... ballingarry missed a penalty against rovers so rovers can count themselves lucky to still be in the 3 way playoff

were you at the broadford game fanatic? were they down lads because of the stag.

**fanaticfan** · 19/05/2013, 5:22 PM

ya was at the glin vs broadford game this morning.broadford had most of the ball but glin had the better chances.broadford had a great break 2minutes before full time but drove the ball wide.broadford had 11 players and no subs but tossie butler was taken off and jim neenan togged out and replaced him at half time. dont know why broadford were short numbers.

Anyone know what the story is with the Desmond Cup Final ? No mention of it in the final set of fixtures.

**fanaticfan** · 20/05/2013, 9:33 PM

id say abbeyfeale or rathkeale are appealing it so its gonna be a while before its being played i think

What do people think of the Prem relegation play-offs being played in Clounreask?
Is there really any need? Surely they could have played one home game each.

How is it working snafu? A round robin where they each play 2 games?!

**walkover** · 21/05/2013, 12:58 PM

It seems a bit strange that it's going to be a Round Robin. What happens if all games are a draw??

Goal difference counts in this.
