Derry Club Football & Hurling original

[Champion The Wonder Horse]

Brolly has held a hurl too though maybe to you are counting him

Yeah I had brolly, Lockhart,2 mcgurks, Downey, McGilligan, McKeever, damper , Mc cloy and Scullion . Some played a lot ,some just championship

I have a feeling that Dermot McNicholl also hurled while at St Pat's!

Glenuillin had team in 80s

Spoofer would have been a squad member at St Pat's. Glenullin had a team late 80s / early 90s, but he wouldn't have played on that team, iirc. A few of that Glen team went on to play for Slaughtneil.

Given Dermot's physical presence underage on any field, he wouldn't have been on any bench too long! Fairly sure he played on the team ok. Paul McCann (RIP) Greenlough also hurled for St. Pat's even though no Hurling at club level. Until Sunday past, he was the only Greenlough man to win an Ulster Senior medal - 1987, along with Dermot, who told me on Sunday on field after match that he is now retired! Best wishes, a legend.!

I think it wad Division 2 but I definitely  remember Derry playing Cork in the hurling league at Lavey about 88/89 , McGilligan , Scullion and McGurk in addition to the Downeys would also have been very good hurlers from the 93 AI team

I was at that game in Lavey

Was at it too, very close game. Would have sworn it was div 1. There was a line going round at that time that Niall Mullan was the only man ever to play in all four divisions of the NHL.

Think I remember a game against Kilkenny in ballinascreen too.

Was there too, it was a long time ago and I was a youngster, but think they lost by 1pt. The Kilkenny game was u21 all Ireland semi, maybe 89? High scoring game, but probably lost by a bit. Big Ollie Collins and Brian McCormick must have been playing?
Don't remember that stint in d1 b at all, but makes sense I suppose.

Remember Paul mccann very well
From my neighbour club
About 3 years older than me at St pats
Remember mccrory games especially up in Coalisland he was exceptional

Great result for the Derry Minors today, deserved winners over Cork in Portlaoise

Yep. Cork we're very very poor though . Didn't think standard was good, too young

[tbrick18]

Brilliant result for the minors. A goal is the only thing missing.

Makes that Munster final result look even more puzzling ( they beat Kerry by 11 points 3 weeks after getting beat by Kerry by 14 in the round robin stages )  that being said Derry put on a great team performance.

[tbrick18]

With Roscommon getting beat today, are we any closer to understanding who Derry can play next?
I just can't work it out.

We can play either Clare/Mayo/Armagh/Cork or Limerick

[quit yo jibbajabba]

Mayo aside (and they are hit and miss) a great chance of reaching the semi tho in fairness whoever draws Derry will say same

Mayo beat Dublin last year, would be a serious scalp if we did draw them and win. Exciting times men
