Shock waves reverberated around the football world this week when the Mayo Under 12 Division 1 was updated and Erris had risen to second from bottom. Having lost every league game they have played this season the Internet was awash with rumour as to how they had climbed to such dizzy heights. Fear not, loyal supporters, you did not miss the match, and first win, that we have all been waiting (begging, pleading and crying) for.
The first win came courtesy of Charlestown being unable to field a team and therefore conceding the points.
Manager Des could not be contacted as he is currently studying for his EUFA B licence. Manager Harry released a press statement “As club secretary I appointed Eric as Youth Secretary and Charlestown gave him the message so technically the three points are all down to me.”
Next up for Erris is away to top of the table 100% record Ballina Town. Eric has been told to keep his phone on at all times in case they call, unfortunately nothing has come through yet.
