Avondale claim league title from UCC in style

An explosive atmosphere today at Avondale Park with no love lost between the Dale and the Students, since UCC beat Avondale to the league in what some would say controversial circumstances in 2015.

There was certainly no love lost between the two sides, as Dave Warren led his troops into action against Noel Healy's students knowing a draw was enough for the Dale to take the league title from the current champions.

With UCC controlling the early possession, Avondale weathered the early storm and created two half chances, with Roy Long looking dangerous after coming on for his injured brother, Danny.
