A torrid afternoon left Naomh Colmcille 4-17 to 0-4 behind at the final shrill of the whistle whule Ryan McKinley and Joe Donaghy were red carded.

“Nothing went right at all,” Martin said.

“They put us unde pressure at the start. They got the headstart they wanted andthey’re that ,idn of team that can steamroll you – that’s what they did.

The problems seem to get worse. These things happen in football.”
