Kilcoo manager Karl Lacey insists that his players’ ‘feet are back on the ground’ as they prepare for today’s Ulster club SFC final against Errigal Ciaran.

Two weeks ago, the Magpies blasted five goals past a Scotstown team who defeated last year to qualify for the provincial final in style.

"Our heads are down again and we know our preparation has to be really, really high going into this final against Errigal Ciaran who are a well-coached, well-drilled, high experience with some really good individual players. Our preparations need to be the best," the 2012 Donegal All-Ireland winning centre back told BBC NI.

“Players don’t need management to put their feet back on the ground. They do that themselves. After the final whistle, we regrouped. We got our huddle, we had our stretch. We had our wee talk.

"By the time the boys got home, that game was blanked and they were looking forward to the next one and ready to go again. That’s just the reality of it."
