28/04/03 Minor footballers record win over O'Donnells

It was a one way route for St. John's on Monday night when they played a very young and weak O’Donnell's side. No fault to the conditions St. John's got off to a flying start scoring 4 points within 5 minutes of play. They continued their scoring with young Kevin McGuinness scoring an impressive personal tally of 2-3. Within the forward line all the forwards scored with the exception of John Mead, who instead seemed to set up a lot of plays and scores, with the help of Kevin McGlinchey and Aaron Douglas.

This is one match you could safely say the forwards got a full delivery of exactly what they wanted. Whilst this game may sound as if the six backs had nothing to do in reality it was much different. Whenever the other team got a chance to go forward they looked strong but our defenders were well on top with Ciaran McCurdy cleaning up well in the half back line, as well as Liam Boyle who done very well in there.

Man of the match has to go to Gary rafferty.
