I wonder if this is for sale for the American market, there has never been a more gripping Championship contest?

It was a fantastic series of matches but, at the end of the day, it still only qualified the winners for the first round of a provincial championship. The greatest achievement of 1991 was Down's Sam Maguire win, which was the first by an Ulster team in 23 years and set the scene for the northern domination which followed.

Players from the Dublin/Meath tie got ten all-stars in 1991, but Down only got four. At that time, Ulster players were regularly told that they had to prove themselves on the all-Ireland stage to be considered for all-stars. When they did, the selectors still managed to look elsewhere.

James McCartan, Mickey Linden and Neill Collins were all badly treated in 1991. At least McCartan and Linden finally got their all-stars three years later, but Collins - who won the 1994 final for Down by saving the late penalty from Charlie Redmond - was overlooked again. Hopefully, the days when Ulster players can be marginalised in this way are gone for good.

The Rover is the only man talking sense on this site. He is also the only man driven from the turkey to take refuge in a computer who is sober enough to remember the all-star count in 91 and 94.
