Well done Derrytresk!
Sounded like they wanted a draw!

Ref getting abuse. The second goal came from him changing his decision of a free to Cremartin to a free for The Hill. Would like to hear what happened.

Fair play Derrytresk.

Congratulations Derrytresk. Great to see football alive and healthy in Tyrone. Good Luck in the All-Ireland Championship.

Wouldn't it be great to see Derrytresk lifting the Ulster club title on Sunday ?.

Best of luck to them. I really hope they can do it.

Well done Derrytresk. Brilliant performance. Hope they can win the All Ireland now.

Thought so, the boyos on the wireless were saying he pointed for a Cremartin free first.

Congratulations to the hill, some win for them.

great achievement for small rural club

A fairytale.

The media like to exaggerate rags to riches stories and have been a little bit artistic with the poor lil ole Derrytresk story (They were probably the strongest Junior club in the late 80s/early 90s yo-yoing 3 times as league winners - also they HAVE won the JFC before - in 1955 - despite what the IN want us to believe) but in terms of form and recent seasons this really is a miraculous turnaround.

Last year the Hill finished 14th in Division 3. Only Carrickmore thirds, Castlederg and Owen Roes managed less points. The year before I think they managed to scrape 4 wins over the year. What has transpired this year should serve to remind any club that no matter how bad it gets, there's always next year and a change of mindset can bring about an astonishing change of fortunes.

Paul Canavan much be some trainer. I think he was involved with Stewartstown when they won the Ulster a good few years ago.

A magnificent achievement and a leaves warm glow down in the lowlands over Christmas.

Congrats to the Hill, rumours that ONeill will be blotto for the week are wild exaggerations!

Damian Harvey's award he got their recently must have went to his head - he always did think he was smarter than everyone else but now he thinks he's a top quality spin doctor!

Toughest sanctions ever?

It wasn't even the toughest sanction at that particular meeting. Kildress got the same fine and longer player suspensions for a minor incident at the end of the reserve championship final!

County board needs to take a long hard look at itself!

well done the hill and to the harps lads involved with the management - great achievement. cremartin undone again by a point against a tyrone side.

i think the hill play the winners of ballivor (meath) v st fechins (louth) in the all ireland semi. would fancy the meath champions to come through the leinster final with derrytresk having a great chance to make the final at croke park.

the team to beat for the all-ireland are declan o'sullivan's dromid pearses. they're jack o'connor's club as well.

the hill wont fear anyone at this stage though!
