David Clifford scores 3-8 but Fossa exit Kerry IFC to Laune Rangers

Killorglin side will play Austin Stacks in decider.

A HAUL OF 3-8 from David Clifford was not enough to see Fossa advance to the Kerry IFC final as Laune Rangers prevailed, 1-19 to 3-11, in the semi-final at Fitzgerald Stadium. 

Eoghan Hassett contributed 0-10 of Rangersโ€™ total as they made it to next Sundayโ€™s final, where they will play Austin Stacks, after the Tralee side overcame Glenbeigh/Glencar 0-14 to 1-7. 

Clifford hit 3-5 from eight shots in a superb first half performance. The Killorglin side trailed 3-8 to 1-8 at half-time having played against the stiff wind. 

They held Clifford to three pointed frees after the break, and kept the scoreboard ticking at the other end to win out by two points in the end. 

They will face a Stacks side on Sunday next, for whom Paddy Lane scored 0-4 today, with 0-2 from frees. Also prominent was Donagh McKivergan, who finished with three points from play.

    If he goes to ajax he will settle in quicker as his mates from home are regular visitors.

    Troy technically is a good player and has done well for Excelsior, fair play. Maybe the lack of pace has counted against him? Would he get a game at Ajax even in the state theyโ€™re in?

    He is technically a very good player and he scores his fair share of quality goals. I think he is best suited to a role playing behind a centre forward as he well able to pull wide or join in the midfield.

    Donโ€™t think Spurs will price him out of a move.Heโ€™s in Rotterdam for the rest of the season so his contract wonโ€™t have long left to run unless he gets offered a new deal.It does look like he is surplus to requirements at Spurs.Feyenoord would be a good move as he is already settled in Rotterdam.

    @Ray Ridge: Orโ€ฆ.theyโ€™re both clubs that play regular European football and are always in the hunt for trophies at domestic level. Two things you rarely see with Irish players now. It seems most Irish fans are only content if Irish players are bashing away in the Championship, occasionally on the bench, before an inevitable move down a division. Parrott playing for a former European winner and regular European participant is obviously a really good thing.

    If any Dutch team can afford the price that Spurs will want to pay for him. Apart from the big Dutch teams I donโ€™t think they could do the money for him.
