MENS FOOTBALL
After our dramatic injury time win v N. Conaill on Sunday, things don’t get much easier as we welcome Senior Champions St Eunans to Connolly Park on Friday evening and then face a long trek to the west of the county to take on Gweedore on Sunday. Our victory on Sunday, against a N Conaill side which featured at least half a dozen players who have represented Donegal within the last few years has sent shockwaves throughtout the county. Two wins from our opening 2 games have made more of the more fancied sides in the league sit up and take notice, and judging on our performances to date, no side can afford to take our lads lightly.
A very much depleted reserve side were no match for the N Conaill counterparts losing out on a scoreline of 0-5 2-11.
