Four-midable Old Boys move six points clear

by isleofman.com 14th October 2006
Old Boys produced a superb performance to move six points clear at the top of CFS Division Two on Saturday.

They thrashed Corinthians in the top of the table battle.

Both sides went into the match with 100 per cent records but Corinthians were blown away as Old Boys outplayed them on their own turf.

An excellent hat-trick from Sean Gavin and a goal from Gary Quirk sealed an excellent day for the Blackberry Lane club.

Corinthians remain second but have been joined on the same points by Michael after they saw off lowly Ronaldsway 5-0, thanks to goals from Jamie Moffatt (two), Michael Shimmin, Paul Corlett and an own goal.

Pulrose thrashed neighbours the Police 4-1 at Groves Road, thanks to a Dave Skillen double and goals from Ben Cowin and John Duggan.

Pulrose, who were being held at half-time, stay in fourth spot.

Colby are in fifth but were pushed hard by Jurby before returning home with maximum points.

And it was a day for father and son to savour with Josh Kelly the hat-trick hero for the southerners and his father, former Island international Basil Kelly, both on the scoresheet.

Tom Duggan scored the other Colby goal with Phil Corkish notching the Jurby double.

A second half Liam Buckley goal separated two ever improving sides, Onchan edging out Malew 1-0 at Onchan Stadium, while Ramsey Youth Centre thumped Douglas and District 7-0 with goals from Andy Cleator, Andy Black, Alex Dodrell, Micky Kneale, Dave Cleator (two) and Mark Faragher.

Foxdale climbed two places and Castletown dropped two as the Billy Goat Park club defeated Town 4-2.

Mickey Gale, Willie Buggane, Steve Harding and Cliffy Keyes were the Foxdale scorers with John Howarth and Alex Crawley netting for Castletown.
