Limerick luck held again as they made it six wins from seven games in beating Galway United 10 at Hogan Park, Rathbane, yesterday, to go joint second in the First Division table. Striker Jason O'Connor was hero and villain for Limerick as he got the all important only goal and was then sent-off midway through the second-half for a second bookable offence after retaliating following a challenge on him.

Home Farm scored twice inside two minutes to overcome Monaghan United 2-1 at Whitehall on Saturday night.

Rory O'Connor scored twice to end Cobh Ramblers' misery, and pull them off the bottom of the table, as they beat Athlone Town 2-1 at St Colman's Park.

Longford Town are two points adrift at the bottom despite holding St Francis to a 1-1 draw at Strokestown Road.
