LAST MAN STANDING UPDATE
The very popular Last Man Standing Competition is into week eight where we had 9 still standing going into last weekend. That number has now shrunk with seven fallers leaving just two in contention going into week nine.
The Top of the Town are sponsoring our first of this seasons Last Man Standing Competitions with €300 going to the winner and the club thanks them for their sponsorship. We also have a €50 sellers prize to the person that sells the winning line.
The very best of luck to everybody left in the competition.
