Westport did the bizz in the Touhy Cup Final beating Killala 3-0. Keith Ruddy could have got a hat trick, coor blimey but Lee Keegan put the Coves in front, James Fahy made it 2-0 and the Man of the Match, David Horkan wrapped it up at the finish. Played good football and deserved the win. There was a minutes silence for Joe Kelly's father and in a fitting tribute, the victory was dedicated to him. Both Joe Kelly and James Fahy both went on to lift the cup. There was a good party in Walsh's pub with karaoke afterwards. Bit unusual to have the Angelus played at half time, but worse still, the supporters were treated to the death notices!!

Westport United's Polish star Domonik Zareba is departing from town and on Wednesday night, he is inviting his friends within the club to Walsh's pub for a going away drink. Domonik is heading to Denmark. Lets hope he leaves with plenty of good memories of Westport United. To date, the only non-national to have won a medal for the club was the legendary Czech midfielder, Jozsef Tomanchak in 2002.

Weren't there a few lads from 'London' Derry on the United side that won the Connacht Cup against OLBC in the early 70s? Last time I looked 'London' Derry was in Britain, which probably qualifies them as 'non-nationals'. What ya think Thunder?

I think that the Bogside folk may take offence to that line. Talk to the Waterside crew. Non nationals seems to be referred to anybody not from Ireland, Britain or the United States.

We have lift off. The Thunderblaster has hit his 1000nd post on Foot.ie. It is time to swish the gargle and party the night away. First team at last. Jez, it was writing worth waiting for!!

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of auld lang syne?
And days of auld lang syne, my dear,
And days of auld lang syne.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of auld lang syne?

We twa hae run aboot the braes
And pu'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.
Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,
Sin' auld lang syne,
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld ang syne.
We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.
Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,
Sin' auld lang syne.
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.

And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

HAPPY 1000 POST TB.

Players in question that went to Australia were Colm Keane and Colin Navin. They're back in Ireland again.

I heard in Austria that the boys lost 3-2 to S&F Utd. Anyone at the game?

**Thunderblaster** · 12/09/2006, 11:08 PM

Read the report on the Mayo News. Not a great performance by the article; wasteful in front of goal and poor defending from set pieces-S&F's strong point-cost us dearly.

Have to get maximum points.
