Ellen Dolan inspires Peamount to comeback win at Dalymount Park
Bohemians' incredible nine-game unbeaten run came to an abrupt halt against an impressive Peamount side who had the immense Ellen Dolan to thank for a come-from-behind win. The All-Island Cup finalists had gotten in front thanks to a well-taken finish from teen sensation Aoibhe Brennan, but the Peas had a teenage star of their own to thank for their first win since May 17. The visitors, narrowly beaten at home to Athlone Town in a bruising battle in the FAI Cup despite being the better team for large spells, but started brightly despite being shorn the services of the suspended Mary Philips. Jess Fitzgerald smashed a 25-yard effort that sailed just over the bar signalling their intent with a couple of minutes played. The hosts began to play their way into the breathless encounter as Hannah Healy became more influential, starting one excellent move down the right that saw Sarah McKevitt whip in a dangerous low cross that was cleared at the pivotal moment by Peas skipper Karen Duggan. A fascinating midfield battle was developing between fellow Irish Under-19 Internationals Brennan and Fitzgerald who wrestled for control in the engine room. There was huge controversy midway through the first half when Dolan bust into the box following some pinball in the area and looked to be caught either side by Lisa Murphy and Katie Lovely, but referee Mark Moynihan waved away the protests. The visitors began to edge the war of attrition and finished the half the stronger. Both Sadhbh Doyle and Dearbhaile Beirne had strikes from distance that narrowly missed the target before a royal rumble-style scramble in the area led to claims from the Peas that the ball crossed the line. Despite being second best for large parts, it was the hosts who broke the deadlock a minute before the break with a clinically incisive move. Brennan was quick to intercept Beirne's pass into the middle, before playing a perfectly weighted one-two with McKevitt on the right. The silky midfielder continued her run into the box, showing great strength to hold off the pressure from Doyle, and finished expertly into the near post with her left foot. The hosts came flying out for the second half, going close to doubling their lead just after the restart with two chances in quick succession. Firstly, Lovely forced Amanda Budden into a brave stop from point blank range before showing cat-like reflexes to deny Alannah McEvoy at the near post. Having been denied a penalty in the first half the Peas were given a chance to equalise fro the spot moments later when Fiona Donnelly was adjudged to handle the ball from a blocked cross that spun up awkwardly. Player of the match Dolan took responsibility but saw her penalty saved low to her left by Rachael Kelly. The 19-year old showed huge character to shake off the miss and not only equalise but put her side ahead with two excellent goals in five minutes. Firstly, the 2024 Young Player of the Year rose highest in the area to glance home Fitzgerald's deep free-kick from the right before picking up the ball deep and rampaging towards the edge of the area and unleashing an unstoppable right-footed effort that flew into the net to flip the game on its head. The hosts looked to the bench for some fresh legs to bring a fresh impact into the attack. Savannah Kane showed tremendous pace to go down the right before being halted by Duggan who stood up big. From the resulting corner a whole host of red and black shirts had attempted to bundle the ball over the line but the green wall stood big. The home side, roared on by an impressive 468 supporters on a chilly Tuesday, tried desperately to build a head of steam but the experience of Peamount told as they took the sting out of any attack. Bohemians: Rachael Kelly; Sarah Power, Lisa Murphy, Roisin McGovern, Katie Lovely (Savannah Kane, 68') ; Fiona Donnelly, Aoibhe Brennan; Leiagh Glennon, Hannah Healy, Sarah McKevitt (Hanna O'Brien, 57'); Alannah McEvoy (Robin Baird, 68') Subs not used: Jenna Willoughby, Abby Rooney, Simone Reilly, Lillian Rusher, Shona Farrelly,, Michelle Muddiman Peamount United: Amanda Budden; Lauryn O'Callaghan (Chloe Moloney, 82'), Abbie Tuthill, Karen Duggan, Dearbhaile Beirne; Aisling Spillane, Jess Fitzgerald, Sadhbh Doyle (Ruby Gallagher, 90+3), Sorcha Melia; Ellen Dolan, Antea Guvo (Karla Moore, 89')

Slaughtneil boss Mark Doran installed as new Antrim manager
Antrim have appointed Slaughtneil manager Mark Doran as their new inter-county football manager, replacing the departed Andy McEntee. The county confirmed the news in a statement this evening, Antrim GAA chairperson Seamus McMullan saying that Doran's "depth of experience and understanding of the modern game make him an ideal fit to lead our senior footballers forward". The former Down footballer remains the Slaughtneil manager for the 2025 club season. He had initially resigned after last year's Derry SFC loss to then All-Ireland champions Glen but was reappointed to the role in March. Doran had been strongly linked with the Derry job last year, following Mickey Harte's resignation but ultimately wound up taking a coaching role alongside Davy Burke in Roscommon. He previously held coaching roles with Down between 2019 and 2021, and had spells on the coaching ticket with Clare and Wicklow. In addition to that, he was co-manager of the Ballybay side that claimed the 2022 Monaghan SFC title. McEntee vacated the Antrim post after three seasons in charge, following their Tailteann Cup quarter-final loss to Wexford. The ex-Meath manager had succeeded in keeping Antrim in the third tier of the league in his opening two seasons, as well as reaching successive Tailteann Cup semi-finals, but the county will begin 2026 in Division 4 following relegation at the start of this year.

Declan Bonner not ruling himself out of running for Fermanagh job
Declan Bonner has not ruled himself out of the running for the vacant Fermanagh manager role. Kieran Donnelly surprisingly stepped down as Fermanagh boss earlier this week. It was a shock as he had been given an extension until 2027. The genial Brookeboro man, who had been in charge since the 2022 season, was not keen to elaborate on his reasons for going when contacted. Donnelly was desperately unlucky that his side did not beat Down in the Ulster Championship but poor defeats to Carlow and Kildare in the Tailteann Cup were not encouraging. Already the rumour mill is in overdrive in a season where county managers are falling like flies. One man who could be in the running is current Erne Gaels boss Bonner. When contacted, Bonner said he was 'not ruling anything out or in". Naturally his full focus is now on retaining the Fermanagh county championship with Erne Gaels. His stock has risen considerably in Fermanagh after he and his coaching team of Paul Brennan and Ciaran Smith took the men from Belleek to their first county title since 1981. Bonner stepped down as Donegal manager in 2022 after five years at the helm. Another Donegal man who could be in the running is Maurice McLaughlin, who has been involved with the Erne County at underage level for the past six years. McLaughlin has a strong affinity with Erne Gaels as well. He took them to a county final appearance in 2016 only to lose to Derrygonnelly Harps by a single point. His older brother Liam is a former Fermanagh senior captain. Bonner and McLaughlin look to be definite candidates but two well-known brothers, Simon and Colm Bradley, could be outside contenders. Simon Bradley, the elder brother, is a highly respected figure having brought Enniskillen Gaels to a county title in 2022. He is fully focused on Enniskillen Gaels at present and will be hoping to make up for the disappointing county final defeat to Erne Gaels last year. Bradley was also a former county star. His younger brother Colm is also a highly respected coach and manager. As a player, he will always be remembered for kicking a wonderful point in the All-Ireland qualifiers against Meath in Brewster Park in 2004 when Fermanagh reached the All-Ireland semi-final. He has also managed Belnaleck to the most narrow of defeats in the county semi-final and is currently managing in Tyrone. The former journalist has linked up with McLaughlin previously in the Fermanagh U20 setup.
