A Team Matches Sheridan Cup Final Friday 19th June 2009 St Fillan's 6 - 1 Our Lady of the
Rosary There
was a strong wind blowing and this kept us in our own half for much of the
game. Long punts from their keeper put the defence
under pressure, giving OLR a few corners. It
was from one of these that the ball was scrambled over the line. The
boys were not put off and came back strongly in the second half. Some
great goals were scored the best being from Aidan Gallagher with goal of the
match and Andrew Orr putting in a great performance to be man of the match,
but really, well done to all again ! Great
performance and a fitting end to the season. Buster McManus Final Thursday 18th June 2009 St Fillan's 6 - 2 St Bridget's The
boys played well again even if the "shape" was lost a few times, as
everyone started to look for goals. We
were 2 - 0 up after 15mins and we did well despite playing twelve men. Some
of the refereeing decisions were bizarre. Sean Harley was man of the match
with Ryan Smith getting goal of the match. Semi Final Sheridan Cup St Fillan's 8 - 0 St Columbkille's This
was an ill tempered affair with the referee conceding defeat after the first
half. Having
said that the boys were playing some amazing football. At times it really
looked like a pro-youth team on the pitch. Man of the match was the unsung
James McGowan with Goal of the match from Michael O'Donnell. Special mention
to Conor Devine who again, put in a fine shift. Semi Final Buster McManus St Fillan's 6 - 0 St Francis of Assissi The
boys played very well even if the "shape" wasn't always there. A
good performance with a cracking goal from Aidan Gallagher and a man of the
match from Conor Devine. All
of the subs got on again, and all were able to make a positive contribution. Sheridan Cup St Vincent's 1 - 11 St Fillan's Final
League game in the Sheridan Cup The
boys were on fire again and were 6 - 0 up by half time. Kept on going in the
second half to run away 11 - 1 winners. Man
of the match was Conor Devine again and goal of the
match came from Aidan Gallagher. Well done again boys. Sheridan Cup Monday 1st June 2009 St Fillan's 6 - 2 St Francis Boys
were great again on a very tight pitch. We were able to go 4 - 0 up by half
time. Because the boys were playing so well I managed to put on all the subs
at half time. A brilliant decision as we immediately let in two goals to go
to 4 - 2 Credit to the boys again as they got back to form with another two
goals to finish. Conor Devine as man of the match
with Ryan Smith getting goal of the match with one from the training ground! Maryhill
Championship Final 2009 Saturday 30th May 2009 St Fillan's 4 - 1 St Bridget's Treble
Winners Maryhill in the sun again. It was a
warm day and a great day for football. We
started slow (as always) and were not quite awake enough to stop St Bridget's
from scoring. Good heart from the boys meant that we leveled the score prior
to half time. In the second half the boys were superb. 2 goals scored and
Kyle scoring a cracker from outside the box with a rifled shot.. Men of the match in Conor
Devine and Michael O'Donnell Special mentions to Ryan Smith and Neil Cunninghame. Carruth Cup
- Final St Fillan's 7 - 0 St Brendan's Another
good night for St Fillan's. Sean Harley opened the
scoring with a fine goal calmly taken. Conor Devine
(man of the match) scored four. Count them four... Goal
of the match was a curled free kick from Ryan Smith and another man of the
match in Kyle Chyrstal. Well done St Fillan's! Brother
