Tyrone SFC Winners Coalisland - 10th in Division 1 (10th out of 49 clubs)
Tyrone IFC Winners Tattyreagh - 7th in Division 2 (23rd out of 49 clubs)

Monaghan SFC winners - Scotstown (currently 2nd in the Div 1 League table but they are number 1 in the county without doubt)

Intermediate Winners Doohamlet - (1st in Division 2 which would be 11th overall)

Junior Winners Emyvale - (they were 1st in Div 3 which would be 21st overall after the original league fixtures.  Dropped to 4th (24th overall) when the junior league got split in 2 after the first stage)

In the 3 senior leagues this year in Monaghan 32 teams competed (This included a second team from 3 clubs in junior and the other 29 adult clubs)

Senior - Crossmaglen 3rd Div 1A (3/45)
Inter - St Peters 1st Div 2A (17/45)
Junior - Keady 1st Div 3 (33/45)

Think Armagh have it more or less spot on in dividing teams equally relative to ability, had 49 clubs competing across 3 grades with 16/16/17 but over last few years a few clubs folded or withdrew from junior which now only has 13 teams.

Do Antrim still have the option of picking what championship you want to play in?

Emyvale seem to be a real YOYO team.  Have they ever won an All Ireland Club?

In the history of the club, they've never won an IFC title, that's the way it works in Antrim, you keep trying until you win at a particular grade and you move up. Next year it'll be SFC. Nothing to see here.

In fairness I can see why St.Endas entered the IFC....they only got promoted last year and I believe had also participated in the 2017 IFC.  No big deal, but they have obviously improved.

The Ulster representatives from Tyrone would definitely surpirses. Don't think many would have picked them out as winners. Coalisland should give Cross a good rattle but Tattyreagh are in their furst year of intermediate football and may struggle in Ulster. Eglish were the standout team in Intermediate this year but were knocked out in QFs.

Clogher and Eskra would have been big favourites for the junior.

Wasn't having a dig at them - just know they are in senior league and playing IFC.. Have heard they haven't won a County championship before and doesn't matter what level it is at developing that winning mentality with the work that's going on within the club is a big positive for the future players coming through the ranks.. fair play to them

Cheers, that's Derry, Down, Tyrone, Monaghan and Armagh accounted for. Could anyone throw up Antrim, Fermanagh, Cavan and Donegal?
Possibly should also have asked how many clubs compete in each championship but it's interesting to see the responses so far.
