A bag of air was impeccably pinged
Disarray in Glenavon’s box
As Paul Owens took hold of the wind

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Bannsiders hero teed up twice
Ex Carrick lofted Davy O’Hare
Limavady man’s brace all the talk
Carbon copy the Lurgan Blues despair

“Second was a wee bit lucky”
“Unluckily Davy got a touch there”
When the alert goalie thwarted three

Notes


Editor’s note:

Saturday January 21st 2012 :

Paul Owens scored two goals direct from corners as Coleraine came from behind to beat Glenavon and extend their unbeaten Premiership run to 11 matches, in the Northern Ireland Premiership.

He almost made it a hat-trick of corners but was thwarted on the third occasion by Glenavon keeper David O’Hare.
