In-form Dolphin shock Shannon
They used their game in hand to push their points total to 39 and they’re now just two adrift of fourth-placed Clontarf. Shannon, who lost this pulsating game right at the end, still managed to move into second place behind leaders Cork Constitution courtesy of the bonus point gained by finishing just five points adrift of Dolphin.
The Cork side’s coach David O’Mahony was unsurprisingly ecstatic: “It’s not bad for a team tipped as one of the favourites to be relegated at the start of the campaign.”
