Down to earth with a bump!

Magherafelt Sky Blues U15s were comprehensively beaten by a very well coached Cookstown team. Cookstown lead 4 - 1 at the break. The Sky Blues goal came from some tireless chasing by Ciaran Moore. The Sky Blues made 8 changes in the second half and ended up losing by 7 goals to 1.

Taking a completely different approach to the result Cookstown scored 2 penalties and the Sky Blues conceded at least 3 goals that were easily avoidable. (You can always put a different spin on a result!)

This was a good lesson for everyone involved and shows the levels that we aspire to. On the positive side no one in a Sky blues shirt could be faulted for commitment and with some patience and everyone putting in the required effort at training I expect real progress to be made over the coming season.

Training will take place at St Mary's tonight at 6:30pm.
