John Menchia Gallagher is the 2014 Paddy Byrne Perpetual Cup champion following a terrific display to beat defending champion and 2009 winner Dermot McGuire 6-4 in a great final in John Eoinin’s. John who has been one of the most consistent players in the area over the years never won this prestigious title and becomes the twelfth player to put his name on the cup in this the twentieth year of the event. Over 60 players entered on the day and it proved to be a very enjoyable evening with great matches on all the boards, in the semi-finals John beat Michael Byrne 5-3 and Dermot beat five times winner John Con McGinley 5-1, highest checkout of the day was a 154 by Dermot and least darts was by Kieran Gallagher with a 13 dart leg.
