Well done to Vernon McAllorum and Dan Carey who are coaching the Irish national Homeless side.  The team will be travelling to participate in games in Celtic Park, Glasgow, in Gdansk, Poland, and in Melbourne, Australia, from 1st-7th December.

The squad came through their first 'test' successfully in an 11-a-side fund-raiser match vs.  The Luas Drivers team on Sunday last at St Francis F.C. Baldonnell, a game in which the  side comfortably went 2 goals up.  They could have been 3 up but for a missed penalty, and then missed chances in front of goal, but all credit to the Luas Drivers who battled on and scored twice to level the match before the Homeless put away a third goal in the final minutes to win 3-2.
