Senior  Championship
Our Seniors were out in the Championship vs Clonkill on Wed 29th in Cusack Park. Having played very well in the first half we collapsed in the 2nd half and were well beaten by a free scoring Clonkill side with the final score 0-8 to 1-20.  Pollard looked good in the opening 30mins and were a match for their opponents with the HT score of  Pollard 0-07 to 0-08.  In the 2nd half  Clonkill started the better and had the ball in the Pollard net after 3mins of play. The goal comming after Pollard keeper W. Casserly was blocked down in front of goal while trying to clear his lines. On 8mins we lost one of our must consistent players from the 1st half, K.Brazil to a red card with Clonkill also being reduced to 14 men.  Clonkill then scored a further 0-6 before D.McCormack got Pollards only score in the 2nd half after 21mins. Free scoring Clonkill added a further 1-06 before the final whistle.  Pollard now face Raharney in their next match, where a massive improvement will be required.
