Emmett Bradley says he and his Glen team mates will need to bring something different to the table if they are to conquer Kilcoo in Sunday’s Ulster club SFC final (1pm).

The Derry champions fell to the Magpies by a goal after extra time at the semi-final stages of the northern province last year.

Now, Malachy O’Rourke’s men are gearing up for their first Seamus McFerran Cup decider and looking to avenge the defeat which ended their run 12 months ago.

"I think a lot can change in 12 months," Bradley is quoted saying by BBC Sport NI. "Kilcoo haven't changed their style of play too much over the last number of years. It's something that's served them really well. It's a difficult nut to crack, which we found out last year.

"They were the better team on the day, but we know we have to bring something different if we're to get a result. We know off the back of the Errigal Ciaran and Cargin games that we have to improve, so that's our full focus."

Bradley added: "Enda Gormley would have said it's the same four white lines and the same two goalposts. We know what we're going in against with Kilcoo. The tradition they have, they're proven winners at this level.

"They're going to be a huge test but it's an opportunity for us to test ourselves against the best team in Ireland."
