Regans Late winner Gives Column Victory

Thursday Division 2
Ray Regan scored the winner for The Flying Column with five minutes to go in an enthralling contest between The Flying Column and TA Sheehans which ended 4-3. Earlier John O Connor scored a brace for TA Sheehans while Donagh McCartan scored two for the Column.
Apple Exiles finally got some points on the board when they defeated JT Specials 5-3. Despite conceding an early goal, Apple were always in command in this encounter.
The Net Busters moved to joint top of the table after scoring a 4-2 win over a spirited Whitfords side. The game was delicately balanced at 1-1 when The Buster scored from a lucky ricochet and never looked back.
Both goal keepers were in top form in the derby match between BNY and Bank of New York when neither goal line was breached. However Bank of New York keeper Sean Tobin decided to show the forwards how to do it when he went out field in the second half and scored two while helping his team to a 5-2 win.

Thursday Division 1
Ex Pats Athletic were extremely fortunate to defeat a strong United to remain joint top of this division. Fiachra O Driscoll put United in the lead early on but a great team goal finished by Paddy O Donnell and set up by Pat McLaughlin left both teams deadlocked at half time. Kevin Broderick’s winner was comical. The ball rebounded to the net off of his back from the Uniteds goal keepers kick out.
The Unknown Quantities are living up to their name this season. They had a well deserved 6-2 win over The All Blacks. Gordon Ryan was the man of the match and scored a fine hat trick. The All Blacks, despites having a very talented squad can’t seem to get going this season.
The Thirtysomethings scored two late goals to defeat Pity The Fool 6-4 in a very exciting encounter. Man of the match, Eoin Barret scored three for Pity and didn’t deserve to be on the loosing side.

Wednesday Division 1
Jason Lake and Chen were in top form for Racing in their contest with Dynamo Tonduff. The Passage West lads were in command through out the match and deserved their 6-3 win.
Goal Keeper Tom O Connell played out of his skin for The Temple Inn in their victory over QEF Global. Dave Johnson, who scored three, and Rory Perry also impressed for the winners while Ray Keating and Danny Meade did well for QEF.
Despite leading early on, O Donovan Electrical found the going tough against a very polished Refugees. Kris Pawlik and Robert Kriegal tormented O Donovans for the evening while Leon Crowley and Leon Fitton did all they could to stem the tide. The high light of this match was an outstanding individual goal scored by Leon Fitton for O Donovans.

Wednesday Division 2
The Sons of Pitches finally got some points on the board when they defeated Club Redz 6-3. Jerry O Reilly of The Sons of Pitches was outstanding. He scored three goals and assisted two. However, the real difference between the sides was the youth and fitness of The Sons.
The upset of the evening was the defeat of douglasmortgage.ie by The Bons. The Douglas display seemed lethargic and slow compared to recent performances. In contrast The Bons were full of energy and industry, especially man of the match, Jimmy Reardon and were worth their 7-4 win. James Cooke scored an excellent hat trick for the winners.
Far From Athletic are continuing to impress in this division and are emerging as early favourites to take the title. This week they defeated Rosies with very impressive performances from Mark O Callaghan who scored four and Pat O Regan who scored 3
The CUH verses FC Balaga Tonga encounter was a very tight affair until the final 15 minutes when CUH scored four unanswered goals. Ivan Weir was in top form for CUH and is a very impressive finisher. He scored five.

Wednesday Division 3
The Boca Seniors BNYM FC encounter was a very tight, physical but sporting encounter which Boca Seniors won 5-3. The high light of the match was the second of Paul Cashmans two goals which was a long range thunder bolt.
Tony O Donoghue inspired Substandard Liege to a 7-4 victory over the early pace setters in this division, Barstoolona. The high light of the match was his brilliant run through the entire Barstoolona team before slotting the ball calmly past the keeper. The Barstoolona goal keeper also had an excellent match. In fact if it wasn’t for his string of top class saves the margin of Barstoolonas defeat would have been greater.
Marys Ramblers defended valiantly for long periods against Hit and Miss but the class of Dan Williams and Jody Sinnott for H and M shone through in the end. Dan Williams and Darren Morgan notched a hat trick a piece for the winners.
Despite an excellent performance and two great goals by Brian O Connell of The Castlemartyres, The Average Joes had a well deserved 7-2 win. The high light of this encounter was Erik Montgomery’s third goal which was set up by his brother Trevor.
