Magic from Malahide

From The Herald - Plunketts have that bit extra to see off Hollypark in cracker By Diarmuid Geraghty Wednesday November 28 2012. THE big screen welcomed all to Croke Park yesterday. It stated that Cumann na mBunscol have been promoting 'the love of our games since 1928'. And it looks like the beat will go on.

GAA president Liam O'Neill called in on the party. And Ciaran Whelan too. The second day of the Allianz Dublin Primary Schools Football finals proved a sure hit. Three pitches in use and 24 matches over the two days. The legendary Lar Foley was remembered. His grandson, Liam Foley, got a hat-trick of goals as St Oliver Plunkett's returned to Malahide with the Sciath Kitterick. 

Sean Guiden, son of former Dub, Niall, scored four points. Sean's twin, Caitlin, was also in action at HQ yesterday. Plunkett's beat Hollypark in an absolute cracker that extended to extra-time. The Hollypark captain, Conor Kane, has a left foot that would cut the Christmas cake.
