THE 2025 Championship was one to forget for Cloughaneely but team boss Michael Lynch hopes they can be more competitive this time around. Cloughaneely finished eighth in Division 2 but another couple of results would have had them in the promotion mix. We got another two points after that against Fanad which kept us safe and we were happy enough. Three of the four teams beat us in the league. The day we beat Malin it could have gone either way.
