Men's Division One:
Railway Union 1 (Peter English) Pembroke 6 (Alan Sothern 4, Paddy Conlon 2)
Pembroke got back to winning ways as they came from a goal behind to ease clear of Railway Union in the second half of derby day at Park Avenue. Peter English's corner drag flick, following a quick break-out, handed Railway the lead and was only matched by Alan Sothern's drag-flick in the first half as the sides went in at 1-1 at the break.
Inspired by the impressive Maurice Elliott, Pembroke upped their game in the second period, earning a corner for Sothern to give the visitors the lead and he added another pair along with two goals from Paddy Conlon to build a comfortable win. They did so in spite of the absence of Conor Harte and Craig Fulton.
Fingal 6 (Tom Manning 3, David Bane, Chris Neville, Gary Sharman) Clontarf 2 (John Lennon, Tom Noonan)
Fingal picked up a vital three points to move clear of any potential play-off spot as Tom Manning's hat-trick hammered another nail into the Clontarf coffin at ALSAA. He and David Bane notched two very early goals to make sure the Fingallians were always in the ascendancy. Chris Neville and Manning made it 4-0 before John Lennon's corner strike gave the Bulls some hope. Gary Sharman restored the four goal cushion only for Tom Noonan to land the goal of the game with a superb base-line lob over the Fingal goalkeeper after a decent team move. Nonetheless, Manning completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot and copper-fasten Fingal's place four points clear of ninth placed Railway.

who is in the u16 schools final?
think adam pritchard was missing for pembroke too
Great result for Pembroke considering 5 of the squad were competing in Superstars and 3 were competing in Ireland's strongest man 2 hours before the game....
Credit where credits due,the international giysbtrain bloody hard every week without a day off.I doubt it was them who posted about being up in the gym at 6am the morning of the ym game.at the end of the day they should beat ym every day of the week,tired limbs,no limbs,whatever.I can see however how a heavy gym session the morning of a game could affect a players perfromance levels,let alone 7 players,you wouldn't see a top professional athlete let alone a guy who then has to do a days work after this before a match so let up on the comments,easy to hide behind your computer typing away,try putting your energy into something useful for once
The mens clubs, maybe just one mens club, are becoming worse than the ladies teams at moaning when they have one little person missing. DRY your EYES.
in fairness Noonan's goal for clontarf was pretty special
Who's moaning for having a player missing?trr with Blakeney?haven't heard of any team moaning about missing a player?strange..
Then whats the point of mentioning that pritchard was missing TOO.
Is that implying that there were more than just him missing.
11.35 yes,too,seeing as findlater himself was the one who reported that Pembroke were without Fulton and Conor Harte for the game.people should read the articles in full before they jump straight on the anti-Pembroke bandwagon.are all these commenters as open with their views outside of the computer room?
