Going to this weeks matches the table read:

Young's Seafood's    5    4    1    0    30    20    10    13    WDWWW (5)
Willows Valiant         5    3    1    1    35    25    10    10    WDWWL (4)
Shamrock Rovers     5    1    1    3    24    31     -7    4    LWLDL (0)
Grimsby Catalonia    5    0    1    4    27    40    -13    1    LLLDL (0)
 

 This left Valiant needing to win and by +3 goals. They was missing their talisman Danny Powers because of injury.  Before a gaol had been scored they had hit the Shamrock post and bar three times.

A weakened Valiant and Shamrock strengthened by Danny Hornigold made for a highly competitive match, no player can have left the court without leaving a couple of pints of sweat on it.

Shamrock made Valiants task harder with an opening goal, Valiant levelled, 1-1. From their 2-1,2-2,3-2,3-3, and then 4-3 to Valiant. This would have levelled them on points with Youngs', but asking for +3 goals in the last five minutes was asking to much. 

Shamrock hit them on the break and levelled 4-4.

First on was Youngs' missing Danny North who I presume has returned to his professional career in Ireland after their winter break.  Early warning signs was their as Cat's, brilliantly led by Luke Chissenal, took a 2-0 lead, soon reduced to 2-1. From then on the game looked to much for Cat's Young's levelled and then for long period led, opening up a 2-0 goal gap with the clock closing down.
