Tullamore were crowned Offaly senior football champions, prevailing in the difficult conditions at Glenisk O’Connor Park as they defeated Ferbane, 1-5 to 0-6, in today’s final.
Luke Plunkett struck for the only goal of the game, a crucial first-half score that enabled Tullamore lift their second title in three seasons and help atone for last year’s final defeat at the hands of Rhode.
Tullamore were ahead 1-2 to 0-3 at the break and they closed out the game in a low-scoring second-half, Michael Brazil adding the insurance point.
The newly-crowned Offaly kingpins will take on the Meath champions in the first round in Leinster on the weekend of 21-22 October.
