GAA. NEWS
Clondrohid under-12s continued their league run with a clear win on June 30 in very hot conditions against Aghabullogue the lads started really strong with great build up play from the boys in the middle. The forwards punished the space given to them and went on a scoring run with some fantastic points and a cracking goal before the break. The backs and especially the keeper were put under pressure on a few occasions in the first half but were so clinical in the tackling. The keeper Eugene made some fantastic reaction saves and kept Clondrohid well in contention on a score line of 1-4 to 0-1 lead at the break. As the second half began, in 26 degree heat, the boys pushed on even more and the game was never really in doubt. Aghabullogue fought back to score a fine goal and a few points but the midfielders/forwards showed no mercy and scored a few goals to confirm their victory on a score line of 4-5 to 1-3. Well done to the lads and lady on a great win.

CORK V TYRONE
I was in Portlaoise on Saturday last for most of the above senior football tie – enough said. I note in last Mondays Examiner sports pages where Cork Manager Ronan McCarthy was seen in conversation in the hallway underneath the stand with chairperson Tracy Kennedy and secretary Frank Murphy before he spoke to the press. I’m who had a ‘quite word’ in whose ear. AMEN.
