Simonstown 0—6 (0—3) Skryne 1—9(0—4)
The first half saw both defences in defiant mood and the forwards found scores hard to claim on Sunday morning in Simonstown. However Johnny Hand was on target with two points and David Kavanagh also split the posts for the home team. Skryne posted four first half points to leave the score at the break Sims 0—3 Skryne 0—4.
Simonstown started the second half with points from Charlie McNulty, Mark Farrell and Ruairi Brady to lead by 0—6 to 0—5 with sixteen second half minutes on the clock. Skryne then won a penalty ( a harsh decision) that was duly converted and propelled the visitors to add four more points on the run in while Simons forwards had a few wides while under great pressure.
This was our last match in this division. Junior C level is a great platform for young lads to adjust to adult football and gain expierence to move up the grades. Grate credit and appreciation to Player/Manager; Charlie McNulty, Martin Gorman,Timmy Sullivan and Chairman Dan Kane for looking after this team.
