Rockmount out after disputed goal

ROCKMOUNT, winners of the Carlsberg FAI Intermediate Cup in 2004 and runners-up last year, were surprisingly knocked out of the competition by Bangor Celtic yesterday in Dublin.

The Cork side would have been one of the favourites to go all the way again this year but a hotly disputed goal 10 minutes from time was enough to send the Dublin club through to round four.

There was no such problems for John Caulfield’s Avondale United, who will have high hopes of a good run in this season’s competition, as they trounced Greenhill Boys 5-0 in Walkinstown.
