Intermediate League: Toome played Emyvale in a home fixture on Friday last, 30th June. This was a disappointing result as Toome played some good flowing football for large spells of the game. Mistakes at the back and poor decisions on the field resulted in turnovers and Emyvale were able to capitalise on this. A tough game that was played in good spirits, Toome will need to learn from this as they find themselves in the league relegation battle and need to grind out the next couple of results in their favour. FT Score: Toome 1:12 – 3:08 Emyvale. Next outing is Saturday 8th July in an away fixture to Clones. Please be sure to come along to show your support. #BeThe16thMan.
