On Thursday night we were at home to
Glenville in the Division 3 Junior football league. Our lads settled
very well and a hat-trick of goals from Dominic Connor helped us to
a great 6-7 to 0-9 victory. Though we are out of the championship at
‘B’ grade level this was a fine display of football.
At half-time we led by 3-04 to 0-07
having played against the wind with goals coming from Tomas Kearney
& 2 from the evergreen Dominic O'Connor. In the second half we
took full advantage of the wind and further goals from George
Johnson, Alan Fitzgerald (roaming corner-back !!) & another from
Dominic to complete his hat-trick secured a victory for the Rovers. The
Rovers have now won 2 games against Carrignavar & Glenville
& lost 1 game to Killeagh in the league. Unfortunately we are
out of the championship but hopefully we can keep up the good form
in the league & reach the play-offs. |
