Odd or even – oh boy!

There will be more than usual interest in this part of the world in the National Lottery tv draw this Saturday night. It all revolves around the forthcoming O’Mara Cup final between The Neale and ourselves. Both clubs have agreed to toss for home venue for the final. Which is where the tv Lotto draw comes in. If the bonus ball in the main draw comes out ODD – the match will be in Flanagan Park, Ballinrobe. If it comes out EVEN – we’ll be on the road to The Neale’s home venue in Cong. The game will take place on the weekend of April 6/7. Exact date and time to be confirmed soon. By the way, does anyone know when last The Neale and Ballinrobe clashed in the O’Mara Cup final? Methinks there will be a big crowd whether it’s played in Ballinrobe or Cong. More anon.
