Senior Football Championship

Shannonbridge 0-8
Erin Rovers 0-8

Shannonbridge can count themselves lucky to have
salvaged a draw against old Rivals Pullough in
Ballycumber on Friday evening last.

It was Jason Kelly who kicked the equalising point
from a long range free to tie the game for the Bridge.

The standard of Football on the day was very poor in
this bruising encounter.

On the day there were good performances from Mel Darcy
and Richie Browne, Harry Kearns and Trevor Mahon.
Shannoonbridge must now win their last two remaining
games in order to have a chance to equalify from the
group.


JFC
Shannonbridge 0-12
Cappincur 0-9

Shannonbridge recorded a very impressive win over
Cappincur on on Sunday morning last in Kilcormac in
the Junior A Championship.

The opening quarter of this game, Cappincur were very
much in control until the Bridge got stuck in and
fought their way back.

Anthony kelly who speare headed the attack at centre
forward shot over a number of very good frees and
Chris Duffy also Kicked over some good scores in the
first half.

This was a shannonbridge team with a mix of very young
and very experienced Players. One Man who bought this
experience to the front was Hubert Darcy who kicked
three points from Full forward.

On the day the credit must go the Blue and Gold
defence who held out in dramatic fashion from some
huge pressure in the final five minutes as cappincur
pressed and pressed to score a goal.
