Champions St Patrick’s crashed out of Wicklow’s senior football championship in sensational fashion in their first-round qualifier match at Aughrim on Saturday.

Henry Sinnott powered Baltinglass into the Wicklow SFC semi-finals yesterday with his three goals setting up a decisive 3-10 to 1-5 win over An Tochar at Aughrim.

A motion from Wicklow club An Tochar has been overwhelming passed by GAA delegates at Congress 2008 in Sligo this afternoon in favour of a return to the old qualifier system.
