[ # ] Christy Ring Cup Round 1 Results
May 11th, 2009

Kerry 3-11 Mayo 1-16
Down 3-20 Derry 1-22
Kildare 3-19 Westmeath 2-21 (AET)
Carlow 4-16 Wicklow 3-9

Some cracking games and an upset as favourites Westmeath were beaten by Kildare. 3 of the 4 games were really close which shows how close the teams are at this grade and how hard they’re working to improve.

Shame on Clare and Wexford for their recent comments about not wanting to play these teams in Division 2 of the league. Selfish little people with no vision for the game.

I hadn’t realised there’s a new format this year for the Christy Ring, it’s knockout with a losers round as opposed to groups. So Westmeath get a second chance after I put the kaibosh on them by predicting they’d win the cup outright.
