Youth Centre lose top flight status

by isleofman.com 31st March 2012

Ramsey Youth Centre’s time in the top flight is over after just a season.

The brave northerners – relegation favourites at the start of the campaign – had battled hard to try and preserve their status in the Canada Life Premier League and at one point looked like they could achieve their goal.

But in the end, arch rivals Ramsey inflicted the final nail in the coffin at Lezayre Road.

A goal in each half from Lewis Qualtrough and Matthew Montgomerie consigned Youth Centre to the drop.

Ayre United, the team joining them in Division Two next season, shipped 10 at Peel.

There were hat-tricks apiece for Lee Gale and Matthew Woods.

Kerron Christian netted twice and was joined on the scoresheet by Tony Duggan and Daniel Pickering as Peel scored five in each half.

Paul Kennish grabbed the Tangerines’ consolation.

Laxey remain top of the table after a 3-1 success over Corinthians.

Fresh from a last minute winner last weekend, Chris Brown grabbed a first minute opener to set the Miners on their way.

He went onto complete a hat-trick inside 39 minutes.

Darren Cain replied for Corinthians in the second half.

Reigning champions St George’s, with games in hand, remain on course for the title though after a 7-1 win at Gymns.

A hat-trick from Ciaran McNulty against his former club led the way.

Frank Jones, James McStay, Sam Caine and skipper Sean Quaye netted the others with Nick Bowden finding the net for Gymns.

The Golden Boot of Steven Priestnal was the difference as St Mary’s ran out 2-1 winners over Old Boys.

Johnny Holland opened the scoring for the Saints before Callum Stewart equalised for Old Boys.

But a Priestnal goal proved to be the winner at the Bowl.

St John’s and Rushen shared the spoils at Mullen-e-Cloie.

Mike Williams gave Rushen a first half lead before Nick Hurt levelled for the home side from the penalty spot after the break.
