The Intermediates picked up their first league point tonight away to Kilbride. In spite of having an abundance of possession, we kicked a lot of wides with the result that we went in behind by 0-6 to 0-4 at the break. The lads kept plugging away and a very good passing movement resulted in a goal by Daniel Quigley, giving us a one point lead on 61mins. But Seamus Grey equalised with a 30m free in the 64th min – the last kick of the game as darkness fell. Clonmore played well but missed too many scorable chances. We nearly nicked it in the end but a draw was a fair result.
Scorers: Niall Humphries (0-4,3f), Daniel Quigley (1-0), Con Murphy (0-2), Owen Coleman Collie McGrath, David Mulvany (0-1 each).
