Replying To farneygael3:  "Did get to Clontibret but heard Scotstown won playing for 20 minutes over the course of the game. Most of that team will be sitting on the bench when the real football starts at semi final stage."
It was that much of a non contest they had them running the pitch while the trophy was being presented!

What's the predictions for the weekend?
Starting Friday you'd have to fancy Harps Toome and Killeevan. On Saturday Truagh and Castleblaney, 2 poorly coached teams so could go either way. Rock Ballybay and I'll go with Clontibret but a tricky one to call. Aghabog D'moyne Scotstown Clones Blackhill and Inniskeen should all be big favourites on Sunday.

No, red cards are only for the same competition so he will be suspended for league next year

Replying To MonGaa123:  "Well done to Scotstoon, killanny and drummhowan today. Scotsmen will take some beating in the championship considering they had a second string team out today in the league final.
Killanny are a dogged team that have proved themselves as winners. Aughnamullen lacked that bit of experience. Can't see them back in senior anytime soon.
Drumhowan back to intermediate next year and don't be surprised if they give the intermediate championship a good rattle next year as they are a fantastic team that could be senior in a few years. Toome conceded too many goals. They were a lot tighter Defensively last year under the leadership of Fra Mcphillips who is a good defensive coach."
This years Toome team is very depleted from other years can see them really struggling come championship. They lost a few more men last weekend and bench just isn't there if anything happens Wilson they can pack it up for the year

Be interesting to see how Drumhowan and Kilanny play now in the champiosnhip. Promotion already secured will they take the foot off the gas or could they even improve since less pressure on them

Can see Drumhowan pushing on to try give Ulster a rattle. Speaking to a few of them and they felt they left a great chance behind them a few years ago losing a semi final on penalties
