Senior football championship - Relegation Playoff Off

Shannonbridge 0-12 2-10 Gracefield.
Shannonbridge were defeated in Killeigh on Saturday evening last by 4 points against a tough Gracefield side which leaves us requiring nothing only a victory against Edenderry next Wednesday, 2nd September to retain senior status for 2010.
Best for the Bridge on a very disappointing day were Kieran Flannery, John Ryan, Willy Keena & Paul Deeley.

All support for the Edenderry match would be very welcome.
