Monday, 15 May 2023 14:27

Gordon Brett's side have now shipped two defeats in two outings in the first division.

It's now two defeats in two weeks for Athlone Town in the League of Ireland First Division.

Gordon Brett's side have the unwanted honour of being the first team that Kerry FC beat since their formation this year.

A Samuel Aladesanusi own goal and Valeyri Dolya's 4th goal in 6 games weren't enough for the midlanders to take anything from the game in Athlone Town Stadium.

After the game Brett caught up with Midlands 103's Oisin Coyne:

Town are next in action when they take on Cobh Ramblers in Cork on Friday.

Our coverage of Athlone Town is with thanks to Munnelly Opticians, Monksland Athlone, celebrating 15 years in business. Munnelly Opticians - Where seeing is believing.
