Munster Club Football: What
has become an historic and superb year for Lissycasey Senior
Footballers came to an end at Cusack Park on Sunday when they were
defeated by Kilcommin of Kerry, in the opening round of the Munster
Club Championship.The loss of mid-fielder Michael O'Rourke proved to
be every bit as great as had been forcast since he was sent off in the
Cusack Cup Final against Doonbeg two weeks earlier.The foundation for
many of Lissycasey's victories this year were laid at mildfield where
O'Rourke's work rate proved too much for all oposition. Derek Doohan
replaced O'Rourke in the only change in the Lissycasey line out from
the County Final and Cusack Cup Final. Kilcummin took control from the
start and had 2 early points while Lissycasey were struggling to win
possessision. When the Lissycasey defence failed to clear their lines
at the end of the first quarter Kilcummen pounched and sent the ball
to the back of the net. They then added another point to put Kilcummin
1.04 to 0.0. ahead. Twenty two minutes elapsed before Lissycasey
opened the scoring with a point from Colin Lynch. The game was in the
first minute of injury time when at the end of the first half when
Anthony Kelly was fouled in the square and the referee pointed to the
penalty spot. Lissycasey Corner back Cathal McMahon came up to take
the penalty but the Kilcummin gaolie atoned for the foul with a great
save. Paul Nagle then pointed to leave the half time score Kilcummin
1.04 Lissycasey 0.02. For the second half Lissycasey brought in Tadhg
Kelly instead of Senan Hayes and moved Colin Lynch to center forward.
Kilcummin took up where they left off and and scored 3 points inside
the the first ten minutes to streatch their lead to eight points.
Tadgh Kelly had Lissycasey's first point of the half twelve minutes in
and two minutes later Danny Lynch shot pass the goalie to rattle the
Kilcummin net. Two Lissycasey points followed from Michael Slowey and
Martin Daly and now Lissycasey were just two points behind. Try as
they did Lissycasey failed to maintain this scoring rate and in fact
did not score again while Kilcummin added two more points to their
total.Four minutes from the end a Michael Slowey effort inched wide as
Francis Hayes tried to get a touch that might have turned the ball
into the net. However this was not to be. The Final Score was Kilcummin 1.09 Lissycasey 1.05. Lissycasey:

Lissycasey were unlucky to lose by 2 points. Éire
Óg, Ennis 2-9 Lissycasey 0-13
Éire Og captured the Clare SFC title in an
exciting decider at Cusack Park, Ennis yesterday. Leading by seven
points at the interval (2-6 to 0-5), they withstood a spirited
Lissycasey second-half comeback.
Two first-half goals from Stephen
Hickey and Peter Cosgrove rocked a determined Lissycasey outfit that
started superbly. The seven-point half-time margin didn't faze
Lissycasey and they reduced the Éire Óg lead with five unanswered
points by the end of the third quarter.
The score of the afternoon was left to wing
forward Cathal Shannon, when he kicked a superb Ennis point from the
right sideline. Three Lissycasey points from Paul Nagle kept it close
late in the game and it was left to Shane Daniels to complete the
scoring. Lissycasey tried in vain to snatch a draw but Éire Óg's
defence held strong.

County Senior Football
Championship 2006: Lissycasey have qualified for the Clare County
Senior Football Final on October 29th 2006 where their opponents will
be Eire Og, Ennis. Lissycasey defeated County Champions St Senan's Kilkee on a score
line of 1.13 to 2.06 in a very exciting game played at Miltown on
Saturday Oct 7th. Lucky to survive in the Competition a few weeks
back, Lissycasey turned in a very impressive display to score a fully
merited victory over Kilkee and qualify for the Clare Senior
Championship final for only the second time in the clubs history.
Great redit must be given to the Lissycasey defence which was
excellent throughout.Playing with the aid of the breeze in the opening
half they raced into a quick lead when Colin Lynch and Martin Daly
combined for Daly to open the scoring. Daly provided for corner
back and team Captain Michael Melican, who came upfield to point
before Daly landed the score of the game and indeed the score of the
season. Anthony Kelly followed with a point and the winners were 4
clear at the end of the quarter. Scores followed from Martin Daly,
& Paul Nagle to make it 0.07 to 0.0 Kilkee got their first score
in the 24th minute. Then added another before Martin Daly scored
2 more to leave the half time score at 0.09 to 0.02. Kilkee made
changes in the second half and thus dominated the opening stages . at
the three quarted stage the score read 0.11 to 0.05. Then David
Russell and Senan Hayes exchanged points before Danny Lynch
landed a magnificent effort for the winners to restore the 7 point
lead they held at half time. 2 Minutes of normal time remained when a
Denis Russell delivery found Gearoid Lynch unmarked inside the defence
and he shot past Joe Hayes to give Kilkee a glimmer of hope. A minute
later Lissycasey were on their way to the final. Joe Hayes kickout was
won by Michael O Rourke and his superb delivery into the wind
put Martin Daly clear and the full forward capped a tremendious
display with an excellent goal. To their credit Kilkee fought on and
David Russell goaled 2 minutes into added time just before the final
whistle. Thw winners defence excelled with the half back trio of
Cathal McMahon, James Kelly & Alan Nagle dictating matters.
Anthony Kelly & Michael O Rourke controlled matters at Mid Field
while up front Senan Hayes & Paul Nagle stretched the Kilkee
defence on many occasions. Colin Lynch played a crucial role
particularly in the second half when he dropped back to help the
defence against the wind. Time after time he made tremendois
runs from defence to set up scores on a day when Brian Casey, Joe
Hayes and team Captain Michael Melican made valuable contributions.
Lissycasey's victory gives them a place in the final for the second
time in their history and it comes in the season in which they are
celebrating their 40th birthday. Founded in 1966 , the club gained
senior status in 1994 when they won the Intermediate title defeating
Eire Og in the final. In 1998 Lissycasey contested the Senior
Final for the 1st time and they lost out to Doonbeg in a replay. Team:

vital.Lissycasey also made a couple of important switches during
the game which had a huge influence on the outcome. The switch of
Michael Melican onto John Paul O Neill had a major bearing on the
game. The Gaels had a great chance to to kill off the Lissycasey
Challange with 5 minutes to go when David Neylon was put through but
Joe Hayes made a Superb save in goals. When Referee Tom Stacpoole
signalled that there would be one minute injury time, Sh Gaels led by
1 point but Lissycasey continued to put on the pressure and 30 seconds

County Senior Football
Championship 2006. Lissycasey Drew with Sh Gaels in a dramatic end
to the Senior Football 1/4 final which was hampered by driving
rain, and played at Doonbeg on Saturday 16th
Sept. A last minute goal from Michael O Rourke in extra time saw
Lissycasey level the game on a score line of Sh Gaels 0.10 Lissycasey
1.07. Fortunate to be just three points in arrears when they won
a 45 in the third minute of injury time,there appeared to be little
chance of Lissycasey staying in the race for the 2006 clare Senior
Football championship title. However Martin Daly's free was flicked to
the net by midfielder Michael O Rourke, leaving the Gaels wondering
how they hadn't won this tie. For most of the hour Shannon Gaels
dominated and while Lissycasey had narrowed the margin to the minimum
with six minutes remaining, two John Dillon efforts had put the Gaels
three clear by the end of normal time. They could and indeed should
have been well ahead at this stage but Lissycasey Goalkeeper Joe Hayes
had denied them on a number of occasions. Four minutes from the end
when they were ahead by a point Padraig Neylon Sh GAels was put
through and with only Hayes to beat he tried for goal only to see his
shot well stopped. The Gaels hit back for a brace of points but that
last gasp finish earned Lissycasey a fortunate draw. Lissycasey:
