CORACH RAMBLERS FC
Congratulations to this week’s Corach Ramblers split-the-pot winner Richard (DICK) Finn, Ballycullane, who picks up our jackpot of €700. This week’s draw took place at Breens of the Dirr. Thanks a million to everyone for your continued support.
The Corach over-35s team have gotten off to a solid start in the Richie Dwyer League. A 2-2 draw away to Taghmon last week, Spicky and Niall with the goals, and a 3-0 win yesterday evening away to All Blacks, goals from Spicky, Fairy and Alan B, sees the lads sitting top of the table on goal difference. Early days but it’s always best to be on top looking down at the other teams so let’s keep it rolling boys.
Sunday at 6 p.m. sees our first home fixture of the season when we take on neighbours Fastnet for what promises to be another tight game.
