11/12 October 2008

AUL Div2A Sat : Fantastic result for Peter Finn's troops as they take another scalp in the pursuit of FAI Junior Cup glory in their first year in the competition. Kevin Behan and the prolific James Haughton had ensured Celtic were level in the dying minutes.  Then an Alan Darcy strike as the ref contemplated extra time sent Celtic into dreamland and a place in the 3rd round of the most prestigious junior competition in the country. 3-2

LSL Maj1D Sat :

AUL Div1 Sun :  Shock exit for Celtic from the FAI Junior Cup. Obviously this challenge came too early for Eddie O'Callaghan's team which has played only a couple of games this season. They went down to a 5-1 away defeat at the hands of Mid Sutton in Malahide Castle. 1-5.

AUL Div3 Sun : Walk-over for Celtic in the 1st round of the Leinster Junior Shield when Vintage Docklands failed to show.  W/over Celtic.

DDSL 9C (T Molloy) : Celtic took an early lead against Jobstown. But the Tallaght side had drawn level by half time, and shocked Tony Molloy's outfit in a 3-goal blitz in second half. 1-4.  

NDSL 9D (M Steevens) :  re classic draw in the autumn sun.    and more

NDSL 11Prem (S Dooley) :  Celtic kept their league campaign on track with a 1-0 home win over Malahide Utd in Porterstown.  They had to withstand much second half pressure as United fought had for the equaliser, but Celtic stood firm, for whom Stuart Rocca took off many important saves as the Malahide pressed in the final quarter.  1-0.    and more

NDSL 11C (S McLoughlin) :

NDSL 11E (R Barron) : The turning point came in the first half with the game level. Celtic were level at 1-1 thanks to Sean Gannon's goal, but  the goalscorer unfortunately broke his arm and had to be taken to Temple Street Hospital. He is in our thoughts as he recovers. Celtic were too shocked to compete for the points as they were in shock with their team-mate's distress. Despite David Kelly's goal for Celtic, they went down 2-4 to Dunshaughlin Youths.  2-4  

NDSL 12Prem (F Murphy) :

NDSL 12B (CON/MT) :

NDSL 13Prem (B Kennedy) :  A classic battle in Porterstown. Celtic went into a 1-0 lead through Luke Bennet in the first half, only to be pegged back by a strong Raheny Utd.  1-1 half time.  Celtic just edged the second half when they scored late on when Dan Ring seized on a cross into the box, finishing superbly at the far post.  2-1.

NDSL 13C (JnHayes):    A fair result in a very evenly contested match.  Castleknock scored first through a fine strike by Eoghan O'Donnchu. Ashbourne equalised soon after.  Half Time : 1:1.     

Second half continued as first, very evenly contested with plenty of opportunities at both ends. Ashbourne grabbed a second, but this inspired the Castleknock boys to put in a fierce effort and they scored a fine equaliser after some great pressure.  Scorer was James Carolan, who has been in a rich vein of scoring the past few weeks. Both sides had chances in the closing stages, but the draw was the fair result on a sunny Sunday morning in Porterstown.

NDSL 13D (JnByrne): Celtic lose out to Clontarf away. 0-4 

NDSL 13E (AlFahy): Swords Manor withstood fierce Celtic pressure to hold out the hosts.  Albert and Maurice will be scratching their heads as to how they did not get a share of the points, losing by a single second half goal.  0-1     and more
