O’Donnellan & Joyce recorded seven sales when it placed nine properties under the hammer at last Friday’s auction. Colm O’Donnellan of auctioneers O’Donnellan & Joyce said they were delighted with the prices achieved and the tremendous response and bidding in the room. He said auctions are proving to be the best method of obtaining a sale on properties, and all the properties on offer had very realistic reserve prices, and the market decides the true value.

A much-changed Connacht returned from Parc y Scarlets empty handed as the Scarlets continued their hunt for a top-four place with a 38 -10 win.

With the world in financial turmoil, those people who have money on deposit are extremely concerned and a large number are looking to buy property as a safe haven for their money. With properties down 60 per cent from the peak, and where rental yields can produce in the region of 10 per cent, the auction room is by far the most popular option for those seeking value for their money. O’Donnellan & Joyce’s next major auction on Friday September 30 will see 17 properties placed under the hammer including a large number of investment properties, all of which must be sold.

Under 10s going great in the go games

There was a dreamlike and eerie atmosphere in Pearse Stadium on Sunday afternoon as most hurling supporters kept their powder dry and stayed away until the league final on Sunday week.

I said last week that a shock could be on the cards in Semple Stadium last Sunday. Okay it didn't pan out that way in the end, but at various stages of both quarter-finals it sure looked like happening. Cork and Waterford move onto the semi-final stages after cracking encounters with the former out to upset Kilkenny's 3 in a row dream on August 10. Over the last decade these two sides have stopped each other from completing this marvellous feat, it's a bit like the song Lanigan's Ball “one stepped in....", they will once again as in '04 relish the opportunity to repeat the trick and set up an All-Ireland appearance. Cork judging by their prematch get-together, obviously feel the world is against them. It's the first time I've seen everyone step outside the confines of the playing area for the National Anthem. They are well within their rights to do so but you're only bringing notice to yourself. Both the Clare and Wexford players were probably kicking themselves last Monday morning for letting a good chance slip by. You would have to acknowledge Cork's persistence to stick at it when all looked lost at half time. They once again proved that they have the bottle and they know how to both wear down a side and finish off a job - this is a trait that both Clare and Wexford lack.

After being positive about the county football board and its handling of convention in this column last Thursday, it is disappointing to have to be a tad critical this week.
