Ardmore Rangers Face Toughest Test To Date

Wednesday night’s usual footballing outing for Ardmore Rangers is looming. Not our usual Astro.ie game though. Probably our toughest test to date.

In our short history we’ve won the Astro.ie League four times in a row, and throw in a FORAS Cup in between which featured approximately 30 teams from Cork, and had us playing around eight 30 minute games in a day. But tomorrow is pretty much the be all and end all. A win tomorrow puts us back on top of the league, but a loss pretty much finishes it for this season.

Gliebenhaag FC have come from nowhere, demolishing all in their path. We haven’t faced them before, but from looking at the results they look a pretty decent side.

Add into that our own inconsistency so far this season, and it makes beating them a monster task. I’m going to borrow a quote from Ruairi O’Hagan from last season. (Which no doubt, he borrowed from somewhere else).

“This is the week where dreams become reality. where legends become gods. where the impossible is possible. when you have nothing left to believe in, believe in one team. One ideal. A shining light amidst the darkness.A beacon of hope in these troubled times. Believe that miracles do happen. Believe that we shall stand …our ground and fight. There will be no surrender. WE ARE ARDMORE RANGERS. AND THIS IS OUR TIME. ARTID”

We CAN do it. We WILL do it.

ARTID.
