MONAGHAN UNITED UNDER 15’S DRAW
Seatown F.C. 1-1 Monaghan United
Monaghan United U - 15's worked hard to secure a draw against a good Seatown side in a top of the table clash in Dundalk on Saturday last. United got off to a slow start and battling against a freezing wind found themselves pinned in their own half for the majority of the first 40 minutes.
Seatown used the wind to good effect and aided by a partisan referee and some slack defending found themselves 1 - 0 up after 15 minutes. United were lucky not to concede another before the interval as Seatown dominated all areas of play. Courageous defending by Shane Larkin at right back and wingers Shane Hannon and Francie Smyth kept the interval score to the minimum.
Following a "hair dryer" discussion at the break United knuckled down and began to play football. Captain Conor's switch to striker was the catalyst in Monaghan's revival. On the 60th minute his sublime pass found Tommy Doody unmarked in the Seatown penalty area and Tommy made no mistake in levelling the score.
Monaghan controlled the remainder of the match and despite the best efforts of Seatown, they pushed forward at all opportunities. United could have nicked the winner in the final minute whenever Cian Byrne sliced a cross from Shane McKiernan with the keeper out of position. All in all a draw on the day was probably a fair result.
Joint manager Seamus Deeney was critical of the teams first half performance. While commending their battling spirit he warned against complacency and cockiness in their attempt to win 5 League titles in a row.
Team: Andy Fallon, Shane Larkin, Paul Mc Conkney, James Mc Allister, Shane Mc Kiernan, Shane Hannon, Conor Moynagh, Leigh Dunne, Francie Smyth, Cian Byrne, Gatis Logins, Tommy Doody, Shay Deeney, Colin Clerkin.
NEW ASTRO PITCH UPDATE
Everyone is looking forward to commencement work on the full-size Astro-Turf pitch. When completed it will be fully floodlit and will be available all year round to all our teams and to any other clubs, schools etc in the region for training and playing on.
United are awaiting final sanction from the Department of Sports before works commence and the pitch should be available by early summer.
CONGRATS TO OLIVER MARTIN
Congratulations to Monaghan Shopping Centre’s Oliver Martin who has received his UEFA “B” Coaching badge. Oliver had been working towards this qualification under the tutelage of the late Noel Reilly and faced his final assessment under Padraig Nicholson.
Although Oliver does the majority of his coaching in Carrickmacross, he has been very helpful to Monaghan United in the past and has also coached young children with special needs from the Co. Monaghan SNAP group and has worked with Jennifer Hill in the County Sports Partnership in providing coaching for groups from Co. Monaghan who took part in her Football for All programme.
Well done Oliver on your achievement from all at Monaghan United FC.
