Replying To sligo joe:  "Open to correction but I believe they probably should have been relegated to intermediate some years ago when they finished bottom of div 1 league. At the time the senior championship was confined to Div 1 teams. Tubber brought and succeeded with a motion breaking the connection between league and championship and so remained in senior championship."
Open to correction ,tubbercurry won 9 hurling championships and are now gone !!but no one saying anything about that ...sligo have got to 2 all ireland hurling club finals in four years in hurling !!!with no backing from cb

Congratulations to Coolaney/Mullinabreena on surviving in senior. They were very competitive in many of their games and indeed the relegation semi final so it will be good to see them test themselves at senior again next year. Commiserations to Tubbercurry. Some of the comments are very harsh, they have caused many upsets over recent years in senior when nearly everyone had them written off as relegation favourites. I'm sure they'll regather and push to get straight back up next year.

Onto the finals this Sunday, Owenmore Gaels will be strong favourites in the first. Baring a collapse of similar proportions to their last championship final in the park you would expect them to win with a bit to spare. Michaels will be dogged and well set up but surely the Gaels will have enough of firepower to get over the line. The intermediate is hard to call. Ballymote have a lot of individual talent, Curry probably have the edge in experience. Hopefully the sand in the park has all washed in and we are treated to a good game and it should be high scoring too you'd imagine. If calling it I would say Curry but by a very narrow margin.
