Elmes strike sees Wexford Youths earn first victory

NEW boys Wexford Youths grabbed their first ever Eircom League victory with a 1-0 win against Cobh Ramblers at Newcastle Park yesterday.

Midfielder Tom Elmes — a former minor and Under-21 footballer with Wexford — fired the all-important goal in the 55th minute.

Pat Dolan’s side have now grabbed four points from their opening two games, while Ramblers remain pointless at the bottom of the First Division with Kilkenny City.
