We’ve all heard of the “X” factor, well say hello to the “O” factor from Iorras Aontaithe (B), it was very much in evidence  on Thursday evening the 13th when Erris (B) clocked up another three points at home to Hollister in Division one, final score Erris (B) 4 Hollister 2.

Gareth O'Malley, looks good in red

Iorras Aontaithe (B) were ahead at the break with two first half goals from Kyle O’Reilly from a free and the other from Gareth O’Malley. Hollister scored twice in the second half but further goals by O’Malley from a penalty and another effort from Kyle O’Reilly secured the three points for the home side.

Iorras Aontaithe certainly sparkled in the June sunshine at home to Snugboro United on Sunday the 9th with a very good performance and a score-line to match, Erris United 6 Snogboro United 2. The visitors started brighter and they had Erris on the back-foot in the opening few minutes.

But 7 minutes into the game a mix up in the Snogboro defence gifted Iorras the lead with Sean Gaughan sneaking in to score. But know sooner had Erris gone in-front, Sean McHale had Snogboro back level with close range header on 8 minutes. Snogboro continued to press with John Carty, Sean Curry, Joe McDonald bring the best out of  Scott Kilker who was making his senior debut appearance between the posts for Erris.

Iorras started to impose themselves on the game and on 23 minutes Gary Boylan put Erris in-front again with a well taken penalty. Then on 23 minutes Mickey Sweeney, making his full debut for Iorras, scored his first goal with a very good finish. But Snogboro were back level again on 38 minutes when Sean McHale scored his second goal. But then right form kick-off, Iorras were in-front again when Gary Boylan caught the Snogboro defence napping with his excellent effort to leave it 4-2 at the break. In the second half Iorras continued their dominance with Mickey Sweeney scoring his second goal on 77 minutes, scoring with a nice chip over the head of Kevin Stenson, Snogboro Keeper.

Sean Gaughan slotting home his second effort.

Sean Gaughan scored his second goal on 84 minutes to round off a good afternoon for Erris in the Summer sunshine.  This was a important three points for Iorras who are at the bottom end of the Super League table. It was also nice to see the return of Anthony Mills who has been out of football action since last year.
