Donegal Club Championship Predictions Competition - Week8

(Oldest Posts First)

Hi all.

Does anyone know if the junior final is definitely this weekend? I had a look on the county website and not only do they not have a confirmed date/time, they also have the fixture wrong. Jesus wept.

"Junior A Championship Knock Out

Final

TBC, Na Rossa v Naomh Padraig Uisce Chaoin"



Anyway, assuing it is on this weekend, and it's actually Na Rossa v Moville, get your predictions in.

JFC Final:

Na Rossa v Moville

IFC:

Downings v Malin

Oh I forgot to add, in order to keep things interesting I usually award more points for the championship finals. It gives contestants a bit further back an opportunity to make some gains!

So please take note of the additional points on offer below:

Predict the winner = 3 points
Predict a draw = 5 points
Predict exact winning team margin = 10 points
Predict Man of the Match (as awarded by the Monday Donegal News newspaper) = 10 points.

A couple of good tight finals over the weekend by all accounts. Can anyone please confirm the MOTM from both finals?
I haven't seen the Donegal News yet but from what I gather, Aiden Mc Hugh (Na Rossa) and Johnny McGroddy (Downings) were named MOTM in their respective matches?

Oisin Caulfield was MOTM in the junior (As awarded by Donegal news). Think I should have had 13 Lockjaw? You had both MOTM predictions correct yourself

Good man. I must go back and rejig the scores then. I didn't manage to get my hands on the paper yesterday.
So according to the DN, Oisín Caulfield and Johnny McGroddy were MOTM's?

Typical. My predictions in this compeition have been fairly good but ya just know if had actually bet on any of them in the bookies they'd all have flopped!
