A freezing cold but bright day saw the derby match between Ballymoney and Coleraine rugby clubs end in defeat for the hosts, Ballymoney. A spirited first half when they led 13-3 at the interval ended up a 13-25 defeat, much to the delight of the travelling supporters. A very noisy contingent, positioned close to entrance to the bar, entertained the considerable crowd with what they saw as pertinent advice to the referee! These earthy suggestions were interspersed with renditions of well known tunes; remarkably well sung and in tune given the bitter cold. The on board liquid heating obviously helped.
So, bragging rights have gone back to Coleraine and we will just have to wait until next season (and turn up for the second half!) to give them a good stuffing.
