Moroney's Bar

On Wednesday last 38 patrons of Moroney's Bar headed to Listowel on our annual outing to the racing festival where the main racing event on the day was the Guinness Kerry National. We had a very pleasurable stop in The Swanky Bar in Tarbert en route where we were very well looked after by the owner JP Prendivelle and his staff. We were fortunate that the weather was beautiful for the racing and the atmosphere in Listowel was fantastic. 0n our way home our commander in chief Maurice Walsh had dinner organised for the group in Durty Nelly's before we headed home to finish off the night in Moroney's.

Sincere thanks to Maurice for his kindness and hospitality from all who travelled.

Tonight at a sold out Croke Park fierce rivals Manchester United and Leeds United will face each other in a preseason friendly. The last soccer match at Croke Park was the first leg of an infamous World Cup play-off tie between Ireland and France on November 14th 2009. Ennislusc will be well represented in the capital in what will be a wonderful experience for all those lucky enough to get their hands on gold dust tickets. For Leeds fans it will be a chance hopefully to see new goalkeeper James Trafford make his Leeds debut following his club record £40M transfer from Manchester City. Moroney's Bar is home to the Ennis Leeds United Supporters Club and we wish all our loyal Whites a fantastic and enjoyable evening in the super surrounds of Croke Park. MARCHING ON TOGETHER

It was a sincere pleasure to be in Semple Stadium Thurles last Sunday to see the brilliant young Banner lads defeat Galway on a scoreline of 4-20 to 2-16 and lift the James Nowlan Cup for the 5th time since John Conlan raised it in 2009. Having defeated Galway three years ago at Minor level ( U17) eleven players from then featured in the final with one of their stalwarts from then Dara Kennedy being unfortunately unavailable being out since a hamstring operation before the start of the Munster Championship. Clare's perfect record on All-Ireland final afternoon of this championship has been preserved, five from five.

Clare started off their Championship in Sixmilebridge on 25th March defeating Waterford 1-10 to 0-12. They followed this up with an 0-18 to 0-15 win against Limerick once again in Sixmilebridge. It was then on to Semple Stadium Thurles on 22md April where they… Read more

The Clare hurlers head to Semple Stadium Thurles on Saturday evening next to take on the reigning All Ireland Champions Tipperary at 7pm in a must win game for either side. With Cork already assured of qualification for the Munster Final and the All Ireland series and Limerick looking assured of their place also given they have home games to come vs Waterford and Tipperary Saturday is a knock out championship game for The Banner and Premier County. Given Clare's recent hammering by The Treaty men Brian Lohan and his management team have some serious work ahead as defeat here certainly ends our season.

These brilliant Clare hurlers owe us nothing but we the supporters certainly should turn up in our thousands to drive them on. People often saw that the crowd can be the 16th man and certainly the players need to hear The Banner Roar loud and often… Read more
