Irish Premier League 2004/05 Season Commences 31st July 04
The 2004/05 season got underway in Dunmurry. Early pacesetters are Kenny Beggs (NI) & Gary Moore (ROI), with Davy Clegg (NI) hot on their tails in 3rd. Gary looked set to finish the day in top spot after winning his first 5 matches & Kenny having drawn his first match against Barry Spence. In the last session, however, Eoin Adams produced a shock result by drawing 1-1 with Gary. This enabled Kenny to edge ahead on goal-difference after recovering from his first match to win his next 5. There is still a long way to go, however, and the first IPL campaign promises to be an exciting one. Results & Photos
