Replying To Viking66: "No. This year was the first time it was ever done in Football." Yes they won the finals at the start of this calendar year but that is technically last season as I said. The current Ulster club season started last weekend and all the big dogs enter this weekend. Looking forward to it Monaghanmad123 (Monaghan) - Posts: 94 - 05/11/2026 13:41:01 2699496 Link
Replying To Monaghanmad123: "I believe that was a mix up in reporting. It is Dermot McArdle who has joined Mc Conville in Wicklow. Malone just taking on a player/manager role with the faughs for now" Good appointment. Should get them to at least a quarter final farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 877 - 05/11/2026 15:42:32 2699504 Link

Replying To Deadballmerchant: "any word on the manager merry-go-round yet? any new managers appointed or anyone gone yet?" Inniskeen obviously. Castleblayney. Saw Currin are advertising so their management is gone. That's all I'm aware of.... Matchwatcher (Monaghan) - Posts: 67 - 07/11/2026 14:40:41 2699682 Link

Real championship starts tomorrow for Scotstown. Went through the motions last few weeks in Monaghan but hopefully got a good body of training done recently. farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 877 - 07/11/2026 22:10:56 2699718 Link

Will likely be the end of the road for them. ORIELMAN85 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1286 - 07/11/2026 23:45:41 2699724 Link
Replying To veterngaa: "Some hiding the Fontenoys got today" Had been impressed with them against Ballybay but they looked very poor yesterday all be it against a strong team. They'll be happy to be back up senior but will know that consistency is a must to stay up. 222 (UK) - Posts: 983 - 08/11/2026 10:09:42 2699732 Link
First competitive game of the year for Scotstown, 312 days into the year. Have a hunch that Magherafelt will have the legs on them. Eddie the Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 1396 - 08/11/2026 11:03:47 2699741 Link
Scotstown experience got them over the line in ET. They will learn an awful lot from today Rory seemed very lucky to stay on the field with the knee to the chest. His class on the next kickout and then when they were under pressure in last play of ET is why they are in the next round Monaghanmad123 (Monaghan) - Posts: 94 - 08/11/2026 16:21:36 2699764 Link
Experience you cant buy it. Beggan on that kickout showed all his years of composure and class so badly missed v louth in croke park last year. Kieran Hughes was immense in a difficult game v a very decent Magherafelt side. Finally good to see big Mcphilips back. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 2044 - 08/11/2026 16:33:09 2699765 Link
Scotstown team in some serious shape. A much younger more athletic (looking anyway) maghaerafelt really struggled physically in extra time. Subs used added great value aswell. MonaghanMan44life (Monaghan) - Posts: 308 - 08/11/2026 18:40:06 2699775 Link
Debate still goes on who is better Gary Mohan or K Hughes. 2 similar players. Beggan wintering we'll almost cost Scotstown. Needs to get down to training next week farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 877 - 08/11/2026 20:14:58 2699783 Link
Replying To MonaghanMan44life: "Scotstown team in some serious shape. A much younger more athletic (looking anyway) maghaerafelt really struggled physically in extra time. Subs used added great value aswell." I thought Magherafelt had the legs on them for a lot of the game. They turned over a lot of ball by swarming Scotstown, and countered at pace. A great game, where both teams pressured the ball out the pitch. It led to plenty mistakes, but great entertainment and some brilliant scores.

Magherafelt really ate them in normal time tackling very hard, scotstown done enough in extra time to Win it , beggan was to good 222 (UK) - Posts: 983 - 08/11/2026 22:04:22 2699794 Link
