RENMORE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB

Well what a game, end to end with plenty of goals, incident and high drama for  the watching fans of both sides as it finished Kinvara Utd 4 Renmore 4 away in Killina. With this mid table clash ending in a draw with the Renmore goals coming from Ailill Connolly, Christian Ryan, James Lee & Daniel Ofili a bit more luck and who knows what may have happened. The U14's whom compete in the Galway FA's Division 2 will look forward to their Connacht Shield match against Ballymote Celtic on November 2nd with a 2pm scheduled kick off. Wishing them all the best in this competition. 

Western Hygiene Division 1 RESULT:
Renmore AFC 2-3 MacDara

It was a bad day at the office for the First Team, over the weekend, as they twice threw away the lead to MacDara who snatched all 3 points in Renmore to end the home side's 100% league record. The home side's goals came from Paddy Gannon and Rory Glynn.

Renmore will hope to bounce back immediately this Friday night when they face a tough away trip to Tuam Celtic.

U14's lost out to Kilshanvey 4-1 with Daehan Cool scoring the consolation goal for Renmore. Their next match will be this Saturday 19th October in the Galway FA U14 Division 2

Renmore will be hoping to keep the momentum going as they face a home match against Connemara's Macdara this Saturday 12th October at 2pm. Despite keeping another clean sheet in their previous game Renmore will be wary of their visitors who will be looking to kick start their season. All support is appreciated and welcomed this coming weekend.

 In the U1`3 SFAI Sketchers Cup it finished Renmore 3 - 0 St Josephs B. U15's lost in the Championship 5-1 to Bearna Na Forbacha and in the U17 FAI Cup U17 Renmore had a convincing and impressive 4-1 away victory over Conn Rangers of the Mayo League with the home side replying with a penalty.

A terrific hat trick saw Renmore carry on from their fantastic start to this season in  a win that saw them go fourth in the table with two games in hand. In a tetchy game it was club skipper Paddy Gannon who showed the way scoring first with a header to get the ball rolling before a Cian Gallagher hat trick and a Flo Jouffe Gerard strike won the points for Renmore.

Renmore reserves ran out good winners away to Tuam Celtic in their Reserve league fixture 4-0. In a match which saw first team manager Stuart Donoghue score, three excellent first class saves from Renmore keeper Stephen Doherty and a Man Of The Match performance from Daniel Corbett it was a great away day for the confident squad as they face Loughrea Rams in Renmore next Saturday at 2pm. Get out and support the lads! 

It was a case of what may have been as a gallant Renmore side went out of the FAI Junior Cup to Athenry.....just.

Despite going 2 nil down it was a brace from Cian Gallagher (one a penalty) that made this tie a fascinating affair with both sides creating chances as the game progressed. Renmore battled back into this game and if it wasn't for a moment of individual brilliance from Athenry there might have been a different outcome.
Next up is a derby  versus Mervue B next Sunday (6th Oct) at 11am in Mervue.

Under 14's lost out to Arrow Harps in Riverstown Sligo in the U14 SFAI Skechers Cup on a scoreline of 6-2. Two excellent strikes from outside the box from Warren Ward & Christian Ryan respectively saw Renmore put in a battling performance. 

Good Luck to Harps in the next round.

A fantastic and relatively easy win for Renmore in the Connacht Junior Cup as they welcomed Real Tubber to Renmore at the weekend. Scorers Darragh Mulgannon, Alberto Cabanyes (2), Eoin O'Boyle, Patrick McKernon, Kieron McGinty & Paddy Gannon. 

In a game of total domination from start to finish Renmore will probably meet tougher opposition in the next round but they must firstly focus their attention on the next important fixture against Athenry coming up in the FAI Junior Cup next weekend on Saturday.

This game was a chance by both sets of managers to get players match fit for the new season that kicked off last week, and both teams didn't disappoint as it ended in a very competitive 1-1 draw.

If the strong starting line ups show anything this season it will be how entertaining and also important this competition will be for both clubs as the season progresses.
