Railway Union put dent in Cork C of I’s title challenge

It was moving day at both ends of the men’s EY Hockey League with a slew of surprise results on Saturday.

Cork C of I’s title challenge took a big knock as they were frustrated by relegation-threatened Railway Union, for whom former C of I man Peter Catchpole was on the scoresheet in a smash-and-grab 4-1 raid at Garryduff.

Eugene Magee’s conversion into a forward continues to be a success for leaders Banbridge; he scored twice in their remarkable 5-1 away thrashing of Monkstown, who have a lot of work to do to make the play-offs.
