Thirteen points and a massive goal difference all favouring Carbury was the mountain St Johns had to climb so it looked a sweet three points all for Carbury hunting down leaders MCR or could St Johns pull off a giantkilling act with nothing to lose and yet everything to play for.
However, the stats rarely lie and Carbury were in no mood to comprise Tyler Stallard opened Carbury’s account on seven minutes, adding his second on 40 minutes.

Monday night 16th Jan Dromore Villa FC played neighbours Kilglass Enniscrone Utd in the Rugantinos U18 league on Monday night. The weather at Mac Sharry Park may have been frosty but on the pitch, this was a hotly contested west Sligo derby.
In a high tempo 1st half, the Villa defence and stand in keeper Darragh dealt with everything KEFC could throw at them. The Villa midfield were well in control and were proving a handful for the KEFC defence.
Goals from Kyle Tiernan, Ciarán Keenan and 2 from Adam Rolston gave the Villa a 4-1 lead at the break.
The 2nd half proved just as entertaining with some great football from both sides, but 3 goals conceded over the 2nd 45 minutes gave a final score of 4-4 and a share of the points.
