12As share the points against Rivervalley Rangers on a raw morning in Porterstown with a 0-0 draw.  

12Ds have impressive 3-0 win over Belgrove FC at home in Porterstown.  Craig McGivern was on the mark from the penalty spot to put Celtic on the way. Garry Doyle got the second.  Johnny Cooper weighed in with his usual goal scoring.  This victory sends Celtic to the top of the table. 

12Es go down 1-2 at home to Luks Utd, despite going close to an equaliser in the second half. 

 

 13As had a deserved 2-0 victory away to Skerries Town.  Both goals came in the last 3 minutes when Darren Doddy struck.  The second came off a Ricky Flanagan shot which was deflected into the Skerries net.  Man of the match was Eoghan Furlong who controlled the mid-field from start to finish.    

13Fs go down to the odd goal in a 9 goal thriller at home to St Pauls Artane.  4-5 defeat.

U-15Ds have off-day against Rivervalley Rangers with 0-4 defeat.

16Major DDSL built on their home draw against Verona last week with a convincing 3-0 win over Raheny Utd.  Lorcan McCarthy was put through on the half-hour, and although he had much yet to do, he shot beautifully from some 30 metres giving the Raheny keeper no chance. Barry Walsh got the second, while Ciaran Carr wrapped up the scoring.  Dave O'Connor had another clean sheet looking comfortable with anything that Raheny threw at him.

16Bs were denied full points against Ashbourne at home in Porterstown.  Celtic had led from midway through the second half with an Andy Keogh goal.  But Ashbourne's Keith Scally popped up with seconds to go and shot home the equalizer. 1-1.
