St Patricks GAA notes

St Pats Cormac Sullivan
St.Pats Survive In Div One

In their final League match for 2014 seen St.Pats scheduled at home to play already relegated Oldcastle however St.Pats were given a walkover in their final match & awarded the Pts. So all the attention led to Simonstown v Gaeil Colmcille with a win for the Cilles would condemn St.Patricks to Div 2 football for 2015. So St.Pats were relying on Simonstown doing them a favour to stay in Div 1 and send Gaeil Colmcille to Div 2 & that sure happened as Simonstown won by a scoreline of 0:15 to 0:10. It was only back in St.Patricks day of this year that we were defeated to Gaeil Colmcille by 3pts but our "St.Patricks Day" has really arrived a relief for all at the club to remain in top flight football for 2015. Let hope that the lads can build on this, improve & have a much better league season for 2015.
