Derry ultra offensive....Donegal ultra defensive....interesting!
At least there will be a new name on the Anglo-Celt Cup this year.

I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Repeat of the 98 final. Id like to see Derry winning it to be honest.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

Yes 98 is the last time Armagh/Tyrone didn't win Ulster funny enough we have the same final now.

How many of Donegal's U21 team from last year is now on the Senior team?
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

We'd take a last minute goal to win it this time too!

Not sure who'd be favorite for this game. Probably Donegal having beat the outgoing ulster champions.
A very difficult game to call. We'll need a good referee that's for sure.

If Donegal play the way they did at the weekend Derry will triumph

Club Rossa

Have a feeling that it will be a bad day for Donegal diehard Ian McCrea.
Derry by 5.

Yeah to the Donegal fans behind goal.
The key to success is to be consistently competitive -- if you bang on the door often it will open

While I don't think this will be a great game I think it will be interesting from a tactical perspective.

John Brennan hasn't really faced anyone yet who have really implemented the blanket defense.

Skinner thrived the last day with no sweeper in front of him. How will he play with such a packed defense and will he keep his cool are two big questions to be answered.

I think this is a game Mark Lynch can stand up and be counted in. Also I don't think Derry have any defenders physical and mobile enough for Murphy so could be problems there.

Midfield should maybe slightly be swayed by Derry based on the last day but they need to perform again.
