Seniors
The phase “el classico” would be the perfect fitting to sum up our Sunday morning game away to killeveen. Even before a ball was kicked there was action in the goal front in what could be described as fisticuffs! In a hot tempered game, it was the home side to start off the quicker and it was them that held a 2 point lead at half time. A kick start was needed at the start of the 2nd half and all the encouragement from killeveen’s female supporters at our lads seemed to work wonders as Micky Tierney and Dermott Gleeson despite having men hanging off them for most of the 60 mins got a hold of the game. It was a game that should have seen us pull away only for the home side to keep the score board rolling mostly from frees, and with 10mins to go killeveen nabbed a goal to go ahead and leave a very nervy finish but our lads kept the cool and played some brilliant football for the final few minutes and it was man of the match Micky Tierney to give the killeveen crowd an exhibition on kicking to win the game by a point.
Final score Eire og 1-13 Killeveen 1-12
Scorers Micky Tierney 1-8, Dermott Gleeson 0-2, Paddy Croarkin 0-1, Ronan Cassidy 0-1, Francie McMahon 0-1.
Get better soon

Scoil Mhuire, Magherarney 50th Birthday Celebrations
Scoil Mhuire Magherarney is celebrating 50 years on its current site as a primary school serving the area of Smithborough and Magherarney. The Board of Management and the school’s Parents Association are currently planning a small event which will be held on Saturday May 28th at 3pm to mark this special moment in time. We are planning to hold the event in late May. As part of the event we would like to have a display in the school of old roll books etc. but also photographs. Therefore we are putting out an appeal to the community if anyone has any photographs from the school over the past 50 years we would love to get a copy. We would ask that they be left into the school with the school secretary whereupon they will be scanned and the original returned to the owner or scanned and emailed to the school at info@magherarneyns.com So get searching those cupboards and spread the word to any past pupils as the more photographs we have the more memories that will be evoked for everyone.
Sympathy
The club would like to send its condolences to the McMahon and Mularkey family on the death of Christina Mularkey and to the Tierney family on the death of Sean Tierney.
