Hoey broke his arm in two places and had to have an operation on his hand this morning, the accident happened 5 minutes into the game when he fell awkwardly from a challenge with one of the Douglas Hall players, thankfully one of the Mallow first responders was on hand to help out, big blow to Rockmount losing their captain for the run in the league and cup competitions. Even more disappointing for Hoey himself missing out on leading the Irish team out in Turners Cross against Poland in a few time. Hopefully he makes a speedy recovery.
Bad result for St Mary's tonight could have dented their title aspirations, by all accounts they were the better side just couldn't put the ball in the back of the net.
Rockmount win and Mary's lose last night, getting tight at the top. Must win game for Avondale today, closest league in years.
Good 3 points away to Midleton last night. Good game to be fair. 2 Vinny Lonergan goals for Mount. One in each half. Midleton drew level with about 20 to go before Vinny came up with the winner. Stunning goal. Brendan saved a pen when it was scoreless.
Avondale 0 - 1 Douglas hall
Half time and dale reduced to ten men.
Avondale need to throw the kitchen sink at it if they wanna have any chance of winning the league.
Any results lads
Dale 0 Hall 1
Dale did huff and puff in the second half and had a few clear cut chances but didn't take them.
I think the extra time on Monday night took its toll in the sweltering heat today.
Credit to the Hall though they battled well and deserved something from the game.

Some tasty ties there,the pick of the round has to be Avondale vs Cobh wanderers,a good test for wanderers to see how far they have progressed this season.big game in the cross tonight Ireland vs Poland,hopefully the public will go out and support the local players on view,Anthony o Callaghan(st Mary's) called in a replacement for ken hoey.congratulations to Derek Clarke who has been called into the backroom team as goalkeeping coach for tonight game,probably the best coach in local football and a top bloke as well.
Congratulations to Ringmahon Rangers on winning the over 35 league tonight, tough battle against Leeds. Great advert for the league and a credit to both sides for producing a fast tempo game, just a thought but would the league be better off moving all the games away from the Mardyke to Moneygourney? the surface in the Mardyke(mainly because it's a hockey pitch) must be a disaster to play compared to a proper fifa approved all weather. Massive game for Everton away to Avondale, every game is a must win at this stage for them and also for Avondale who at this stage must have to win every game remaining for them to stand a chance of reclaiming the league title.
Good win for hall tonight in midleton
Anything on Dale and Everton
