GREEN AND GOLD by Karen O'Mahony

We remember the words of the famous song "As I leave behind Neidin"

As you look back o'er the winding hills, it's like "purple splashed on green".

But for a while these words can change, a new story must be told

For looking now on the little nest, it's a sea of green and gold.

The many colours of our town, for now they hide behind

It's green and gold for Kerry, the vibrant ones you'll find.

The flags that fly so very high for anyone coming in

Surely they will tell them, its the Kingdom they are in!

But underneath the banner, of Kerry's green and gold

Shines four great club colours, with pride this truth be told.

The blue and white, the red and black, together they are bound

When Templenoe and Kenmare unite, for the Tower, Harp and Hound.

Crowley, Morley, two Spillanes, O'Brien and O'Shea

Will fight side by side on Crokers grass, if only for a day.

These six young men, from different sides, much for both clubs they've done

But united now on Sunday, their hearts will beat for one.

And when ye leave to sink the Tribes, the wind to leave their sail

Know we stand behind you, as strong as any gale

And as you reach the county bounds and "leave behind Neidin"

See the colours have briefly changed, for its golden splashed on green.

And as the coach gets closer you’ll see flags of maroon hue

Here's a little small reminder of the support that's there for you...

Raise your eyes to every tree that's standing tall and bold

For when Autumn comes, their fading leaves are a little green with gold.

UP THE KINGDOM!

Div 2 County SFL Round 11 Match Report, Laune Rangers V Templenoe

County Senior Football League, Division 2, Round 11.

Laune Rangers 1-17, Templenoe 2-10.

Templenoe lost out to Laune Rangers by four points in the final round of this year’s county league last Friday evening in Killorglin. With both teams already safe from relegation, but out of contention for promotion prior to this contest, the game perhaps unsurprisingly lacked excitement, although there was a steady flow of scores.

On a glorious evening for football, both teams wasted no time finding their shooting boots with Eoghan Hassett and Stephen O’Sullivan trading two scores each in the opening 4 minutes. Indeed Stephen O’Sullivan was on fire for the visitors in the first half. He added another point to his tally before he bagged two well taken goals to put Templenoe 0-03 to 2-03 up by the 11^th minute. Stephen Daly had a score for Laune Rangers in between, before two points on the trot from David Mangan and Daniel Macbeth helped to slightly soften the blow of Templenoe’s two green flags. For the remainder of the first half it was pretty much score for score. Templenoe had points from Stephen O’Sullivan (2) and Colin Crowley (2), while Laune Rangers produced white flags from David Mangan, Eoghan Hassett (2) and Eoin Clifford. Then just before the half time whistle came the turning point when the Templenoe defence under strong pressure from the Rangers attack struggled to clear their lines from inside the box and the referee awarded a penalty. John Tyther neatly converted the spot kick to reduce the margin to the minimum.

Half Time Score: Laune Rangers 1-09, Templenoe 2-07.

Buoyed by their goal just before the break, Laune Rangers started the second half on the front foot, with a long ball to Daniel Macbeth who called the mark and duly obliged with his effort. Stephen O’Sullivan briefly restored Templenoe’s one point advantage, however this would be the last time the visitors had the lead. Laune Rangers then hit purple patch with four answered points courtesy of Patrick Carey, John Tyther, Shane Doona and Gabriel Griffin to make the score 1-14 to 2-08 mid way through the second half. Brian and Colin Crowley (f) responded with two hard earned scores for Templenoe. This put just the one point between the sides with seven minutes left to play. However, coming into the home straight, Laune Rangers just had that bit more in the tank with Calum Moriarty, John Tyther and Patrick Carey tagging on three more points to safely close the game for the hosts.

Final Score: Laune Rangers 1-17, Templenoe 2-10.

Scorers:

Laune Rangers: Eoghan Hassett 0-04 (2f), John Tyther 1-02 (1p) (1f), David Mangan 0-02, Patrick Carey 0-02, Daniel Macbeth 0-02 (1m), Shane Daly 0-01, Shane Doona 0-01, Gabriel Griffin 0-01, Calum Moriarty 0-01, Eoin Clifford 0-01.

Div 2 County SFL Round 10 Match Report, Templenoe V John Mitchels

County Senior Football League, Division 2, Round 10.

Templenoe 2-06, John Mitchels 0-07.

Templenoe’s place in Division 2 of the County league is secure for another year, after the hosts overcame John Mitchels by five points last Saturday evening.

The match was played in miserable weather conditions and it was John Mitchels who had the aid of a strong wind for the first half. John Rice opened the scoring to draw first blood for the hosts five minutes in, following good build up play. Niall Sheehy countered with a white flag for the visitors, before Stephen O’Sullivan cut loose at the other end fisting a ball across the square that was finished to the net by Josh Crowley Holland for Templenoe’s first goal. Mitchels wasted quite a few chances in the first half, but Shane O’Connor did pull one back for them to make the score 1-01 to 0-02 after nine minutes of play. Soon after Stephen O’Sullivan restored Templenoe’s lead to three points, before John Mitchels hit five unanswered points courtesy of Stephen Bowler, Mikey Kelliher (f), Cian Holden, Niall Sheehy (f) and Shane O’Connor to give John Mitchels a two points cushion going in at the break.

Half Time Score: Templenoe 1-02 John Mitchels 0-07.

Josh Crowley Holland pointed for Templenoe immediately after the restart, but there was to be no further score for the remainder of the third quarter. John Mitchels had the more of the possession and were winning most of the breaks, but crucially they were failing to make it count on the scoreboard. A break away attack for Templenoe in the 48^th minute saw Josh Crowley Holland combine with Colin Crowley, with the latter fouled inside the square and penalty was awarded. Brian Crowley stepped up and slotted the ball home. From there on the result was never in doubt. Further scores were added by Mark Casey, Colin Crowley (f) and Stephen O’Sullivan (f) for the hosts, to comfortably close out the game.

Final Score: Templenoe 2-06, John Mitchels 0-07.

Well done to all the players and management on retaining our Division 2 status despite a rocky start, losing our first three matches and our player numbers were tight for many of the games also. There remains one more county league game to be played away to Laune Rangers, before attention turns to the club championship.

Scorers:

Templenoe:  Josh Crowley Holland 1-01, Brian Crowley 1-00 (1-00p), Stephen O’Sullivan 0-02 (2f), John Rice 0-01, Mark Casey 0-01, Colin Crowley 0-01 (1f).

John Mitchels: Niall Sheehy 0-02 (1f), Shane O’Connor 0-02, Stephen Bowler 0-01, Mikey Kelliher 0-01 (1f), Cian Holden 0-01.

Teams:

Templenoe: Mark Looney, Mark Casey, Kieran O’Neill, John Rice, Brian Crowley, Joseph Sheahan, Kieran McCarthy, Sean Sheehan, Josh Crowley Holland, Colin Crowley, Danny Cahalane, John Moriarty, Stephen O’Sullivan, Aidan Crowley, Daniel Crowley.
