Out of interest, what is the JB factor? He definitely seems to have the midis touch at getting teams over the line, Lavey, Moortown, Cargin, Slaughneil, prob left a couple out, so serious question, what does he do differently?

Carrickmore it was I think. Not Moortown

I'd say like most great managers they command respect, have discipline, have desire and a passion to win... Mix that with experience, tactical awareness and cuteness you'll have a great manager..

I don't think he was the reason that beat us.. It was just our time... In our pump he'd have found it harder or even had we not met till final (which Cargin have never beaten us) he'd have been found wanting... But never to be good luck to all the teams... Be rooting for Rossa from here on in now

Congrats to St. Enda's on finally winning the minor football championship last night after just falling short the last 2 years.  Good to see a new name on the trophy and hopefully a sign of the improving standards of gaelic football in the North of the city. Some very good footballers on their name but what a player they have in their full forward Odhran Eastwood! Some excellent players on the Creggan team too especially the two Small's. Yes there is talent within the county providing it can be nurtured properly.

hear the gate receipts from the galls v cargin game says just over 900 in attendance...............well it seems Ahoghill have some big holes in their hedges.

I don't think its the Hedges that have the holes...... yet in 2015 we can get neither a receipt nor a stub which would confirm attendance. Derry Gaa provide two windows, But ticket at one and hand it over at the other. simple

£34 I paid in last night to Owenbeg. Myself and three other family members.

whats the county's obsession with fri night games when a sunday is free?

surely there would be more at the game than a fri night?

[country bumpkin]

our friends who do occupy high places within are only obsessed with their gate receipts DR, and u are quite right Sunday would be a proper setting for such occassion ................night games at this time of the year do no favours to either combatant or indeed spectators as it is cold, and prohibits the attendance of young children, with the playing surface which is usually heavy with dew leading to slippery terrain..........but hey the little guys do like to put football and footballers in their place, and do not anticipate any such placement of hurling games in the near future.

I think they've put that match on Friday to avoid the Derry final, will likely get some extra walk up from south Derry on Friday as opposed to Sunday afternoon

[bannside]

Fair enough. Big crowd of SW Antrim folk up at Owenbeg on Sunday night for Derry semi finals.

[Na Glinntí Glasa]

fair enough, but you need to worry about your own and not another county!

a sunday would of gotten a bigger attendance. Christ the money they made in dunloy for the 3 big games in the hurling they wont need to worry about the derry final! lol
