Naomh Colmcille return home with derby win

NAOMH COLMCILLE returned to home comforts with a two-point win over St Mary’s, Convoy, yesterday in Division Three.

Naomh Colmcille had to forego home advantage in their adult gams over the last 12 weeks.

In the intervening period, Dougie Corbett stepped down as the Naomh Colmcille manager with the reigns now in the hands of Joe Donaghy.

Goals from Reece Duncan and Hugh O’Donnell fired them to a much-needed 2-10 to 1-11 derby win yesterday.

Duncan had them level 1-3 to 0-6 at half-time, but Naomh Colmcille tagged on 1-5 after the break before St Mary’s registered again.

Naomh Colmcille did enough to get a previous win in their bid to avoid the drop while defeat puts a dent in the promotion hopes of St Mary’s.
