cheers leg-end

Ballyhegan defeated Lissumon yesterday in Ballyhegan Park. The score (I think...) was 2.08 - 0.08.
Although it was a lot more comfortable than the 6 points suggests!

If Paddy McKeever had the shooting boots with him, he could have scored more than Mattie Ford on Saturday! He lined out at centre forward & Paul Courtney in Full forward. Paul McGrane was in attendance.

Best for the Davitts was probably our midfield of Mel Courtney & Stephen Tiffney, though in defence Chris O'Carrol & Joey Murphy were fantastic!

pearse ogs have got the points against cullyhanna. was announced at county board. they have played 16 and are on 21 points if this can be amended. cullyhanna also should be down for 1 more game played.

harps and mullabawn will be interesting to see who goes down

[illdecide]

Lads just as a matter of interest what is the senior championship first round draw again?

[el_cuervo_fc]

Ogs v Tir Na Npg

[bennydorano]

Harps v Cruppen

I also see we are down to play ogs away this weekend in the league, should be interesting, especially if Holmes as well as Vernon, Nippy & Toal are available.

Senior Football Championship – 1st Round
Pearse Og v Tir na nÓg
Clann Eireann v St Michael's
Ballymacnab v Mullaghbawn 
Carrickcruppen v Harps 
Killeavey v Maghery
Granemore v Whitecross
Crossmaglen v Dromintee

Clans a bye?
I would say the games might be played at the same venues & times as per the original fixtures except 1 week later

[corn02]

Hard to see Dromintee defeating Cross, but who knows?

Predictions:

Senior Football Championship – 1st Round
Pearse Og v Tir na nÓg - Hard to see Ogs getting beat, although Porty have had a good year. Ogs by 5
Clann Eireann v St Michael's  - Would fancy Newtown here, potential banana skin though, Newtown come through by 2
Ballymacnab v Mullaghbawn  - Mullaghbawn to win this one comfortably, possibly with a few goals to spare
Carrickcruppen v Harps  - Maybe wishful thinking, but with a full team i'll tip Harps to win by the minimum
Killeavey v Maghery - Killeavey have put together a reasonable run after a brutal start, with Stanfield and Stevie back, hard to see them stopped by Maghery... but have a sneaking suspicion Maghery will win by 3
Granemore v Whitecross - Two teams that I don't know much about, I'll take Granemore by 4
Crossmaglen v Dromintee - As nice as it would be for Dromintee to win, i'll take Cross by 10



For a bit of craic, Predict the Q-Final draw...

Mullaghbawn vs. Crossmaglen
Granemore vs. Harps
Maghery vs. Clan na Gael
Ogs vs. Newtown


Semi-finals...

Crossmaglen vs. Harps
Clan na Gael vs. Ogs.


Final

Crossmaglen vs. Ogs.


County Champions - Ogs..... surrrrrrrreee... Crossmaglen in the final by 6

You must have little too do- you must be a simple servant :-

[bennydorano]

Pearse Og v Tir na nÓg – Hard to see anything other than an Ogs win, if the Ogs had a good MF they would be in with a genuine shout of beating Cross, but they are poor in that sector.
Clann Eireann v St Michael's – Haven't watched either team this year but I'd expect Newtown to win by 3 or 4.
Ballymacnab v Mullaghbawn  - Mullaghbawn are very beatable, don't know how good the 'Nab are but they'll fancy their chances. 'Bawn by 2
Carrickcruppen v Harps - Harps could win easy or be beaten, hard to know what way it'll go, but I fancy us. Hopefully the Dubs will do us a favour and knock Tyrone out meaning we'd have Holmes available.
Killeavey v Maghery – Killeavey have to be one of the form teams and should beat a rudderless Maghery fairly handily.
Granemore v Whitecross – Haven't watched either team but Granemore are definitely a club going places with great youth teams this past 5 or 6 years. Granemore by 2.
Crossmaglen v Dromintee – Hard to see Dromintee having the fight after so many sickners, but we all live in hope of change (except Cross wans obviously).

Clans a bye – Hopefully the clans will get beat.

Full back why have a question mark beside the clans. Is it because you're not sure if they got a bye or not or are you questioning them getting a bye in the first place

Very good Benny you're a legend "hope the clans are beat". We'll remember that later in the year (thats if you lot get past the first round) if we meet. Enjoy the second division next year bud

[full back]

Why are you so paranoid illdecide


Wasnt sure if Clans were the only team to get a bye, thought there was 2 teams that got a bye last year (Clans & Nab) 

[nashville]

Aw come on illdecide, its not that long ago Clans were in Div. 2, jaysis man...

Have you any predictions for the championship? Honest ones, not laced with a dislike for the Harps..
