John Brennan

Monday’s night visitors to the Quarter Road were Glenn, last year’s runners-up in Division 3. Glen started with a flurry and were three points up after twelve minutes with Glasdrumman finding it hard to get their rhythm going. Nineteen minutes into the game Martin O’Neill registered Glasdrumman’s first score. This seemed to settle the home side and Connaire Harrison and Raymond Magorrian quickly added points apiece to leave the game all square with six minutes to go to half time. A minute later Raymond Magorrian got on the end of a high dropping ball from Shaun Brennan punching the ball to the net to leave the half time score Glasdrumman 1-3 Glenn 0-3. Straight from the throw in the ball ended up with Raymond Magorrian and he made no mistake with a well taken point. Connaire Harrison added his second point five minutes later and this was quickly followed by a Cormac Murphy point to further extend the Glasdrumman lead. A minute later the ball fell to Raymond Magorrian and he tucked the ball into the Glenn net for his second goal of the game. This seemed to totally demoralise Glenn and they allowed Glasdrumman to totally dominate the remainder of the game adding points from Raymond Magorrian, Declan Grant, Connaire Harrison, Declan Grant and Cormac Murphy to leave the full time score Glasdrumman 2-11 Glenn 0-3.
