Wicklow awaits London ladies  On
Sunday London’s lady footballers face their second test in Division
Three B of the National Football League.
The game is being played in Dublin and people will be sitting up and taking
notice of this London team after their thrilling one-point victory over
the All-Ireland champions Kilkenny at Thomastown.
London had two newcomers to their panel — Grace Lynch and Linda
Lodge — and with Claire Towey, Anne Marie Mohan and Geraldine Leonard
stepping up to starting positions they went out full of determination
to claim Kilkenny’s scalp.
London went on to record a historic victory on a scoreline of 1-6 to 1-5.
What a game.
London are coming along nicely in training but will face a tough task
against Wicklow — a side with some very fine footballers.
One of their players, Caitriona McKeon, is a former Fr. Murphys and London
star and will probably line-up at centre-back for the Garden County which
would bring her up against her former colleague at Fr. Murphys Shauna
Keogh — both fine footballers. |
