No shame in defeat, says Seamus
April 17, 2014Mullen's Ballinamore CS were well beaten by Eureka of Kells but the losing manager was full of praise for his players:
"There is no shame for our girls," he told The Leitrim Observer. "It was a wonderful achievement for us to get to a junior 'B' final, competing against very good schools, but it was a bridge too far.
"For us to win a junior 'B' Connacht title, we played against much bigger schools and in a lot of cases all-girl schools.
"The last three games, the teams we're up against were all-girl schools with 500 plus students and we were good enough to beat them.
"We just came up against a school of very talented footballers, so there is absolutely no shame." Tweet
