		But Athlone also appeared to be suffering from the concession of that late equaliser, and played their worst football of the tournament in the first half against a West Cork side coached by former Athlone and Cork great John Caulfield.
		Athlone reserved their best football for the Bowl Final, and they needed to, as the Cork side were the pre-tournament favourites and had been surprisingly pipped in Group 7.
		Athlone built on that in the second half, when they were clearly the better side, but could not force a second goal.

	Kildare County FC v Athlone Town - First Division Cup (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Athlone almost punished slack County defence in the 28th minute when Stephen Kelly dispossessed Ben Whelehan and chipped Kildare keeper Tadhg Murphy from 35 yards only for the young stopper to scramble back and push the ball over.
		Town gave a much more spirited display after the break and veteran Gavin Dykes had to come to keeper Murphy's rescue in the 50th minute after the Kildare number one missed a Stephen Kelly free and presented Gary Devine with a headed opportunity, which Dykes cleared.
		The Athlone keeper has taken penalties in GAA for Roscommon but for the second week in a row Kildare County's goalkeeper came good and produced a brilliant stop to push Curran's spot-kick around his upright.

		IT was a night to remember for substitute John Guerin, as the Dubliner, who signed for Athlone from junior side Raheny United, scored against Championship side Coventry City in Tuesday night's friendly match in Golden Island Park.
		Town more than held their own against their more illustrious opponents, with 'keepers Danny O'Leary and Tadhg Murphy mainly only having long range efforts to deal with.
		Cue mass celebration as Athlone scored their first home goal since April 8th [albeit in a friendly], when Alan O'Connor scored against Monaghan, though even that goal went down as an own goal in some people's book.

	History
		They played most of their friendlies in Athlone and Galway City as there were very few clubs in existence in the West of Ireland at this stage.
		The club did not win any major honours in the Athlone League but the experience gained of playing in a competitive league was to prove invaluable when this know how was passed on to younger players who cam on stream in the 1960s.
		For the first 18 years of its existence the club played its football in the towns Fair Green but in 1968 the club moved its base to the Curragh Grounds which at that time was rented from Ballinasloe UDC.

		Dessie Baker's free kick was headed down by Town skipper Ferguson to the unmarked Lavine, who slotted home from ten yards for his first goal in 3 months.

		In the last minute of injury time, the Premier Division side were denied a clear cut penalty, when Athlone hero Hope clearly handled on the Athlone line to prevent Gartland's close range shot from rattling the visitor's net.

		After last Tuesday's dreadful nil all draw with Dundalk United went to Athlone knowing that they could only improve and at times they did manage to show signs of improvement but lacked the killer touch in front of goal.
		This game was not a classic and it was certainly not helped by a whistle happy Mark Gough who infuriated the players and the small crowd with his constant blowing of the whistle with the slightest of physical contact.
		United were made pay in the 91st minute when an Athlone player appeared to fall into Alan Keane and Mark Gough once again gave a free in a dangerous position just outside the box.

		She made history in January, on the last day of the Irish season, when she refereed a Division One game between Dublin City FC and Athlone Town FC.
		But if McDermott thought she would get an easy introduction to the refereeing world, she was mistaken, as she was forced to mark her debut by sending off a player, Athlone defender Conor Frawley.
