It is getting tight at the top of the Galway FA Premier League with only two points separating leaders Mervue United, champions Athenry FC and challengers Salthill Devon. Athenry had a 4-0 win over Merlin Woods Sports Club on Saturday with goals from Cathal Fahy (5 ), Gary Forde (pen 21 ), Stephen Cunningham (64 ) and Cole Connolly (89 ), while Mervue took over the top spot again on Sunday with a 7-1 win over Galway Bohemians at Miller's Lane with goals from Tommy Walsh, Barry Moran, Enda Curran (2 ), Jason Molloy, Peter Walsh (2 ) and Andrew Connolly.
The league is now at the halfway stage with the top three clubs having played nine of their 18 matches.
