Arnett Gardens FC continued their impressive home record with a 3-0 win against newcomers Jamalco FC in the Red Stripe Premier League (RSPL), at the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex yesterday.Lennox Russell opened the scoring for the home team in the 15th minute, while Fabian Reid (30th) and substitute Marvin Morgan Jr (89th) netted the other goals.It was a fourth home win for Arnett, three of which have come in the Jungle, as the venue was banned for the first two home games of the season. Hence, Arnett played those games at Barbican.Arnett pushed to 13 points, while Jamalco remained on 10 points in the 12-team league.Russell, who was scoring his third goal in three consecutive games, says hard work is paying dividends.”It is just non-stop hard work that I have been putting in during training that is now paying off,” Russell, who was replaced in the closing moments of the game, told The Gleaner.”I am looking to score about 15 or more goals for the season. Some senior players are not yet back with the team, so I have to continue working to remain in the starting team,” the 22-year-old former Charlie Smith High Manning Cup star reasoned.”I know that Arnett have a lot of talent in the squad, so I have grabbed my chance with both hands. The aim is to be more clinical in front of goal as I have missed a lot of chances,” said Russell, who is Arnett’s leading marksman this seasonGOOD PLAY”We are playing good, especially at home. We lost two games on the road that we could have won, but for lack of finishing.”The team did great today in scoring three goals without giving up any goal. We just have to continue working match by match in order to win the title again,” Russell pointed out.Arnett’s veteran coach Jerome ‘Jerry’ Waite described Russell as a good talent.”Russell has scored in three consecutive games. He is pretty much talented, but needs to improve in some areas of his play,” Waite said about the player he also coached at Charlie Smith.With regards to the game, Waite was satisfied with the result.”We played in spurts, but it was good to score three goals without conceding any. We will get better as the season progresses,” Waite said.Jamalco’s coach Rayon Johnson said his team needs to start strong.”In the last three games, we started flat, so we need more intensity. We had hoped to give Arnett a better fight, but it did not happen. We got chances, but failed to capitalise,” Johnson said.Meanwhile, the Boys’ Town vs Tivoli Gardens game was not played because of a waterlogged surface at the Barbican Complex.Yesterday’s ResultsReno 1 Maverley-Hughenden 1Arnett Gardens 3 Jamalco 0MoBay United 2 Waterhouse 1Humble Lion 0 UWI FC 1Harbour View 1 Portmore 2 read more

The management of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport Corporation (CJIAC) on Saturday officially commissioned its new arrival terminal.Arriving passengers on Saturday were treated to local beverages as they entered through the newly opened terminal.Public Infrastructure Minister David Patterson is quoted by the Department of Public Information as saying he is pleased with the current development of the new services. Further, the Minister stressed that with the new services available, the immigration process is expected to be diminutive.The departure terminal of the CJIA is set to be completed in December of this year.The new arrival terminal and boarding bridges were tested earlier this month to ensure all systems under the passenger treatment/loading conditions are acceptable to allow the identification of final opportunities for improvements ahead of yesterday’s opening.The 4891 square metre terminal features 10 passport control booths, one elevator, one escalator, two functional boarding bridges, three baggage carousels, a spacious customs area and a public greeting hall to welcome the arrival of family and friends.Under the previous Administration – People’s Progressive Party – Guyana had secured a US$138 million loan from the China Export-Import (Exim) Bank to fund the expansion and modernisation project, for which the Guyana Government has injected some US$12 million.However, when the coalition Government came into power in 2015, the project was put on hold, but following discussions between the Public Infrastructure Minister David Patterson and the contracting company, China Harbour Engineering Corporation (CHEC), it was announced that the project would be continued, but with a reduction in its design and capacity. read more

Loretta-Brennan-GlucksmanUS Philanthropist and recipient of this year’s Tip O’Neill Diaspora Award, Loretta Brennan Glucksman, says she is so looking forward to coming to Donegal this week.The award ceremony, which takes place in the Inishowen Gateway Hotel this Friday night, will be the centre piece in a weekend of events marking the life and times of the late Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Tip O’Neill, an illustrious grandson of Donegal emigrants.Ms Glucksman, who has worked tirelessly to promote Irish culture and to establish strong ties between America and the island of Ireland, is eager to return to her roots. Her grandfather, David Brennan was originally from the east Inishowen fishing port of Greencastle.“I haven’t been up to that part of the world for over two years now; that was for the late Seamus Heeney’s funeral. I’ll only be in the county for three days but I’m looking forward to it and certainly a meeting with the O’Neill Clan. “I only knew Tip very peripherally, I was working in television at the end of his speakership but I did get to know his family much better as they had become involved in the American Ireland Fund. His daughter Susan runs our Washington gala every year and of course his son Tommy is on our board of directors,” she said.Ms Glucksman was raised in an Irish neighbourhood in Allentown, Pennsylvania. She enjoyed an illustrious career in academia and later in the media before moving into her philanthropic endeavours which placed her in such a pivotal position in Irish-American affairs by successfully rallying much-needed support. She has often been described as a steadfast champion of all things Irish and Irish American.She is very conscious of the need to underpin continuous economic progress here.“I remember the stories my grandparents used to tell about sending the packages back to Ireland and that was an economic support system in its own way I guess. It certainly has become much more sophisticated in the decades since then. “People here want to help Ireland become economically strong and I think that’s a very important underpinning of all the things that bind us together – let’s try get the economy up and running and particularly a lot of us are very fervent in our belief that there’s nothing like a strong economy to do away with the violence, the gangs and the drugs, particularly when that leads young people into political difficulties just by getting them off track.”She paid tribute to the work of John Hume over the years and added she believes he ought to receive more recognition for the crucial role he had played in getting peace to work in Northern Ireland.Ms Glucksman is also encouraged by the future and aware the world is now a very different place to when her grandparents emigrated“One of the worst casualties of the financial disaster of 2007 was that it did dent the confidence of some people. During the early 2000s we were all told we can do anything we want but no you can’t, it doesn’t always work out like a fairy tale but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t keep trying.“I think that spirit is definitely still there in the Irish and it will take a lot to shake it out of them – I don’t know if that’s even possible but I think there is still a feeling of optimism that I sense when I am in Ireland. “I really pray it continues and just strengthens because they can do so much; they are such a gifted and talented race,” she said.NEWS FOCUS: TIP O’NEILL DIASPORA WINNER LOOKING FORWARD TO DONEGAL TRIP was last modified: September 24th, 2015 by StephenShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Tags:donegalTip O’Neill Award read more

Their songs are on every jukebox in every bar around the world.And now after a 17 year absence, one of Ireland’s most famous bands ‘Goats Don’t Shave’ are to reform.Their classic ‘Las Vegas In The Hills Of Donegal’ helped them fill venues from Britain to America to Australia and they played at some of the world’s biggest festivals. But at the height of their fame in 1995, the Dungloe band called it a day.Lead singer Pat Gallagher told Donegal Daily that the fame and the partying just became too much for the lads.“As a band we always wanted to make sure our audience had a great time, and wanted every Goat’s gig to become a real party but when the audience went home we continued to party a bit too much.“We awoke one morning in ’96 with a headache from hell and decided to pull our horns in. So I guess the last seventeen years has been one hell of a hangover, but we’re feeling a little bit better today,” he said. After a four year break the band found themselves with families and doing school runs instead of signing autographs.“But before you know it family life had taken over, we all had kids to rear (that’s children not baby goats!) the school-run and homework to see too.“I truly love family life in Donegal, plus I wanted to see my children grow up. As they say time flies when you’re enjoying yourself.“We did a one-off gig in Donegal last year and when a surprisingly large crowd turned out to see us, we were taken aback and had a fantastic time. We also really enjoyed playing together again,” said Pat.Now that the bands record company Cooking Vinyl wants to release a best-of album, it seems like the right time to get back together. “We have been very fortunate that although the band hasn’t been around for years the music has remained very popular. We have always had steady radio play and songs like “Las Vegas in the Hills of Donegal” and “Mary Mary” have become Irish classics.“We are really looking forward to touring again and I have written some mighty new songs. Great live music is hard to beat and as we were once voted best live band by London’s Time-out magazine we must have been doing something right. So let’s hope with a bit of practice we can claim that crown again in 2013!”Check out the Goats Don’t Shave Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/GoatsDontShave For News on upcoming Concerts and news.THE GOATS ARE ON THEIR WAY BACK – AND THEY’RE NOT KIDDING! was last modified: February 11th, 2013 by StephenShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Tags:’Las Vegas In The Hills Of Donegal’donegaldungloeGoats Dont Shave read more
