QuoteOur collections of Ulster championships and All Irelands is also impressive in comparison to some others!

A bit Like Cork and Mayo with tons of Provincial Titles each and only a handful of All Ireland's to show for it all :D

I thought that too, but the website says they are showing that on the TG4 player, and showing McKenna Cuip on TV.

Definitely no McKenna Cup live on TG4 - I was talking to the TG4 Sports Editor during the week and they never had the intention of showing Antrim-Derry. It was only that they had the slot marked in for the McKenna Cup final which was initially due to take place tonight in the first set of fixtures, but because of weather has been delayed. They saw Dublin-Meath to be more of a glamour affair!

on another note - does anyone know the last time Antrim were in a final? Was it 1981?

Antrim reached the 09 ulster final Laiosgaa.

Not sure the last time they reached the McKenna cup final.

Ah I know that - I was at that Ulster final - my first and only one so far!

Wikipedia has the roll of honour but no list of finals.

No highlights are available of the McKenna cup matches on TG4. Cavan look like the team to be in the semi finals as fourth placed team.

Have Donegal another game to play?

Cavan +4 after three games
Donegal +1 after two games

Donegal would need to overturn Fermanagh at Ballybofey by at least four points to qualify for the semi finals.

What happens if Donegal beat Fermanagh by 3 points?

They're right. Meath bring great colour and atmosphere, dontchaknow.

Also, a Meath win would be good for the GAA.

So they're showing the final of a 2nd rate spin-off from a 2nd rate competition?
