Allianz FL Division 3
CIAN O’NEILL’S KILDARE got their Division 3 promotion push off to a winning start against Westmeath in Mullingar.
Playing into the wind, the Lilywhites hit 2-6 in an impressive first half including goals from Daniel Flynn and Cian O’Donoghue.
They led by four at the break, 2-6 to 0-8, and held on to win as both sides managed just three points apiece in a low-scoring second period.
In Tullamore, Longford were shut out entirely in the second half as Offaly came from behind to pick up an opening win.
The visitors led 0-10 to 0-7 at the break but failed to register a single score from that point on as Offaly ran out two-point winners.
In Miltown Malbay, Gary Brennan’s goal helped Clare beat Sligo by double scores, 1-11 to 0-7.
And in Kilmallock, Ian Ryan’s ninth and final point of the day snatched a 1-12 to 2-9 draw for Limerick against Tipperary.
- Westmeath 0-11 Kildare 2-9
- Limerick 1-12 Tipperary 2-9
- Offaly 0-12 Longford 0-10
- Clare 1-11 Sligo 0-7

First-half goals from Declan Byrne and Jim McEneaney helped the Wee County to a 2-9 to 0-9 win.
In Aughrim, Patrick Hurney scored Waterford’s goal but it wasn’t enough as Wicklow came from three points down at the break to win by two.
Antrim held off late Carlow pressure to win by five points in Cullen Park, while Wexford eked out a one-point win in a battle against Leitrim in Bellefield.
- Louth 2-9 London 0-9
- Wexford 0-14 Leitrim 1-10
- Carlow 0-10 Antrim 1-12
- Wicklow 0-13 Waterford 1-8
Given as your sub keeper kind of makes a mockery of the whole article
Never make a defender Captain… It’s a GOLDEN RULE, even if he has a double games week or is a potent goal scorer like Gary “The Doc” Doherty, you never make him a captain…
It’s a negative tactic that limits your chance of getting the most out of your squad for that week!
But good luck with it…
Goalkeeper: Gordon banks
Defenders: cafu. Maldini. Roberto Carlos. Beckenbauer

What do you think???
It is not as simple as Rvp is worth two Ricky van Wolfswinkel. you still need another two forwards. Having Rvp means something like Rvp or Anelka over Soldado and Negredo/Benteke/Sturridge. I know which one i prefer. The second one is cheaper too
My team is
Mignolet, Lewis
Terry, Toure, Collins, Michael Turner, Chester
Hazard(c), Walcott, Michu, Mirallas, Jedinak
Benteke, Soldado, Lukaku
Foster
Toure Coleman Terry
Coutinho Mirrales Hazard (c) Nolan
RVP Lukaku Dzeko
Gazzaniga Lucas Brayford Ramage
Mata isn’t fully fit, despite being left out of the Spain squad, I doubt he will play both games in the double gameweek, Hazard is probably a better option.
Cech(V)
Baines, Jagielka, Vertonghen, Assou-Ekotto
Fellaini, Hoolahan, Carrick, Taarabt
Berbatov,Van Persie(C)
Vorn, Rodallega, Diame, O’Shea
Alvaro Negredo I think.
