Monty Scores Five

Wed Division 3

Eric Montgomery who scored 5 times for the Average Joes proved to be the difference between the sides as beat a dogged FC Coping badly 7-3. John O Brien did well for FC Coping. But the Joe’s midfielder Joe O Sullivan’s influence on the game was immense. League Leaders Sub Standard Liege kept their good season going as they overcame Dynamo Tonduff 5-3. James Mealy’s 4 goal haul proved the difference here. Both goalkeepers were excellent in a very open encounter.

2nd placed Lennons Lemmons were too strong for Real Soso Bad. Justin Banks for the Lemmons was the most impressive player on display for the hour.

Philip Sweetman got the man of the match for Reardons, but his side still went down to Crystal Fallace in a high scoring game. Con Creedon and Aaron Atkinson were best for Fallace, whose side are capable of challenging for honours but need to show more consistency.

Wed Division 1

There were 3 rather easy victories for the top 3 teams in this division now looks like a 3 horse race. Clinical finishing and a solid defensive performance by the Booze Crew put them back in contention. Martin Deady and man of the match and  Ian Stapelton who hit a hatrick, were in top form for the Crew as they eased passed the Chancers.

Racing Club were also well beaten by league leaders the Cuban Priests who had Cian Lucey and the very reliable Ross Flood in top form.

The Tools beat Far From Athletic in another one sided affair. Best for the Tools Michael Doody and Colin Hammond who scored a brace.

Novartis surprised league leaders Douglas Mortgage with an excellent 8-5 victory. Conor Byrd was on song for Novartis, scoring a hatrick. Kevin and Andy Barry were also excellent for the winners here and were also on the scoresheet.

CUH hammered the struggling Avengers and pushes them up to 3^rd spot. Ivan Weir again showed his prowess in front of goal with 4 goals for the Wilton Boys.

Nualight and The Baggios definitely played the game of the week as they drew a cracking game that finished 5-5. Liam Ahern scored a hatrick for Nualight, the most important goal being a last minute equaliser. Daniel Lynch was impressive for the Baggios.
