0921 Finn Harps v Athlone Town

Saturday 18th July 2009 – FAI League of Ireland Division 1
Finn Harps 1-1 Athlone Town

Another game Athlone were without some first teamers but non the less battled hard and ground out a 1-1 draw.
Typical game where we could have wont 2-0 but easily could have threw it away. Injury during the week meant Noelly McGee started the game as a substitute but credit to him for stepping up to the plate when needed and firing home the 2nd half equaliser. Credit must also go to Brian Cleary, fresh from his International duties in Belgrade, Brian stepped into the less familiar centre half position in place of the suspended Des Hope.
