MARCH 20TH 2016
Senior Football Credit Union Co League Division 1
Castleisland Desmonds 0-13 Kilcummin 0-10
Losing to Desmonds on Sunday our supporters will be disappointed that the team did not do itself justice on the day but will be concerned that we finished the game with just thirteen men with Kevin McCarthy and Kelvin Teahan being dismissed in the second half. On the positive side despite being at a numerical disadvantage we showed great resilience and but for the crossbar and a number of goal line clearances by the hosts we could have got a deserved draw. In the end we left pointless and now face Dr Crokes in Kilcummin this week end in Round 2. Desmond’s overall physical advantage and the skills of Tomas Hickey in particular were the difference on the day but players like Sean Brosnan, Damien O Leary, Chris O Leary and Kieran Murphy will take some solace from their performances.
