Cork Senior V Dublin The 2010 Bord Gais National league first round saw Cork Senior Ladies Footballers host Dublin in Fermoy yesterday February 7th. For Dublin they travelled to Cork on a mission – to avenge for their 2009 All Ireland loss , and their determination was evident throughout the match , and upon the final whistle they returned to the capital with the just rewards of those 2 precious first league points for 2010. For Cork , though the result was disappointing , it was only the first day out of what hopefully will be another very long season to All Ireland final day at the end of September. It is hoped that this teams break from this Saturday February 13th to Saturday 20th in Tunisia will revitalise the squad & they return to travel to Monaghan on February 21st – refocused and energised for another competitive year in Ladies Football. The thanks of the board goes to all in Fermoy GAA who helped in any way to host this match. Final Score Dublin 1-12 Cork 3-03.
