Division 5: Another defeat in this division last Thursday evening and there is not a lot going right for us at the moment. The lads are doing their best but this is a step up from last year's division 4C which we won and were promoted to this higher division. However carry on we must and keep on trying, once again thanks to all who lined out, especially the not so young lads who never fail to field for the cause.
