Crafty Darcy delivers for Brigid’s
Joint managers Paddy Clarke and Gerry McEntee can take pride in the more prestigious of these achievements, but on the field it was the crafty Declan Darcy who stole the glory with two goals.
The third of the St. Brigid's goals from wing-back Mick Galvin came two minutes into injury time when the destination of the title had clearly been decided. Yet, ten minutes earlier, after a fourth consecutive score from the Kildare side left them only two points adrift, the outcome had been anything but certain. Then, after O'Dwyer inexplicably missed a close-in free and an effort from play came back off the crossbar, Darcy kicked a point which firmly propelled the Dubliners towards the winning post.
