You should get the better of Gerrans, Shane. Can't see a problem there.

Roche2-1Gerrans, an improvement on recent results, Roche started the brighter and quickly took control of the game with Malcolm Thomas and Craig Tamblyn making the goalie work with 2 fine 30 yard dippers which normally go in,but Gerrans rallied and applied pressure but it seemed to fizzle out, the away side gave Roche something they shouldnt have,a free kick just outside the box, up step Paul O"Mahony who cracked a left foot screamer into the back of the net which sent the large home support into jubilation,Roche we now playing some decent football and the second goal was coming,and it came by way of a fortunate penalty when a Gerrans defender handballed in the area and was duly tucked away by the veteran Malcolm Thomas Roche should have added more in the 2nd half but "lucky defending" and Gerrans goalie making miraculous saves thwarted the home side,Gerrans did get a consolation goal in the 95th minute from a nothing free kick which went in with the speed of a sloth,the home side took their foot of the pedal and were made to pay, but in all a decent performance
