Where do Antrim play their floodlight games nowadays?
Donegal should be decent, 2 players who started the All Ireland Senior final this year, Ryan McHugh and Darrach O Connor, a few of their Minors like Stephen McBrearty, Ciaran Gillespie, will improve things too.
Aswell as a few lads who played in the u21 campaign this year, Eoin McHugh
Cavan have a big number eligible from this year's team so should be a good tussle.

Ahoghill or Creggan - way out in the sticks, especially Ahoghill ! will be a late night home on a Wed night
We call it the drive for five up here in Cavan. We will show Cody how it's done.
You would think Tyrone would eventually get their act together at u-21 level considering the talent they produce at the age groups below. Hopefully Peter Donnelly can help turn things around this year.
Anyone know who is managing all the counties at 21 level up there?
The last three ulster minor championship finals have been
2014 : Donegal beat Armagh
2013 : Monaghan beat Tyrone
2012 : Tyrone beat Monaghan
You'd think Tyrone should get their act together considering the talent they have. Will Cavan start as favourites considering they're going for five in a row?

Peter Reilly is Cavans anyway.
Fergal Logan still in charge of Tyrone's u-21s.
Maxi Curran got the Donegal U21 gig.
He was retained, he was the manager this year too.
Tomorrow night a big night.
You would hope to get through tomorrow handy enough (no disrespect, being realistic). What sort of setup have Armagh this year at u-21?
Tyrone 0-07 to 0-02 up. All scores from play so far, Fermanagh missed an early penalty.
Somebody can't find the floodlight fuse in Armagh, which is not ideal.
Game moved to Sunday 2pm.
(2nd half,50 min) Monaghan 0-13 Derry 1-6
Cavan up 7-6 on Donegal. Donegal led 5 to 1 at one point. Tight stuff apparently.
Monaghan 0-15 Derry 1-8 (FT)

Ryan McHugh wins it at the death to make up for a poorly taken penalty earlier.
Yes!!!! 10 wides and a missed penalty and we still manage to sneak it!
Ah well. Payback for last year's final I suppose. Heartbreaking for us though. Best of luck to Donegal going forward.
It had to end sometime but its really sad that after all that dominance for 4 years we didn't win the All Ireland. Donegal did to us what we did to them last year. Best of luck to them against Monaghan.
Ty win 0-17 to 0-07.
Donegal did well to rescue the result tonight. Was hard game to watch at times and both teams kicked some bad wides. Some good performances for donegal with young parke and Thompson being the best on the night
Improvement needed before the semi final especially in the shooting department
It couldn't go on forever! Donegal beat us the only way we could be bet today, a goal with the last kick. I've no doubt if that goal was a minute earlier these lads would've got an equaliser. I think the well may be dry for a few years at this level for us now although there are a few top players coming, not enough together to make a trophy winning team.
That's good scoring for Monaghan, well done lads.
Is James McGahan not on the Tyrone u-21 panel this year? Tyrone seem to be missing arguably their best forwards of 2012 and 2013 for different reasons in this years u-21 panel - are there any other key players from the minor teams of 2012/2013 that are not on the panel this year?
Correct.conor mckenna is in oz and sean hackett is available unfortnatley.thats a mighty impressive squad we have at the minute. Savage workrate from 2-15 and a grt bench. Hopefully we can keep this bunch level headed
Armagh v Antrim being streamed live now, free owing to the rescheduling.

Armagh 1-10 Antrim 0-03 HT
some good work by Armagh, Ryan McShane a real speed merchant at No. 15.
Armagh 2-13 Antrim 1-05 FT
second half killed off by early goal by Armagh, rather pedestrian afterwards, Antrim goal from quickly taken free by McAleese.
Any word on venue for the semi?

Enniskillen 8pm
Who's heading from Tyrone ?
Would it not have made more sense to toss for home venue on this one?
One match delayed because of floodlights - one match delayed because it is getting played on a different pitch now.

Wee Martin reckons that the game shouldn't have gone ahead and that the players safety needs to be considered.

Tyrone win by 4
Kenny Archer gets it right again. Makes it easy for himself tho as he always calls both teams to win! !
Seems Tyrone system worked well tonight. Glad to see Armagh never gave up though.
Well done Tyrone. Good to get a run at this level again.
Tyrone had some tasty players
Armagh all at sea in first half where they lost the game
The best side wine but pitch made game a lottery
Disappointing to lose to the Unwatchables tonight.However we will maintain our superiority over them at Senior level should we meet this summer
Missed the start of the game, anyone know what was up with Mark Bradley? Injured?
Well done lads. About time we had some luck at this level. Hopefully we buck the trend against Donegal and push on from there.
Anyone with brief match report or scorers?
Who's up next?
Donegal?
I make the trip to Brewster Breffni Park last night and glad I did. The conditions were shocking, but there was still a decent game of football, with some excellent skills on show.
Tyrone came out of the traps well, and effectively won the game in the first half with two high quality goals. Lee Brennan showed some lovely improvisation with a 'soccer' style touch and finish, and then Conor Meyler with a deft lobbed finish. The only time Tyrone looked exposed was when Armagh launched it direct and so they've something to work on in this regard.
When Tyrone played the game at pace, whether that be direct running or quick ball in, they looked very dangerous.
I thought Mark Kavanagh (Errigal) had a good game, and I still think he is the best underage player I've seen over the last few years. I am impressed every time I see him. Dan McNulty, Meyler and Frank Burns did well too, and I thought our own Cathal McShane put on a good show last night. Two well hit points at a critical time, and occupied the Armagh midfielder (O'Hanlon?) all night.
Armagh came back into it in the second half, but Tyrone saw the game out well. Sean Fox made a decent save that could've gave Armagh impetus, but you always felt Tyrone had another gear.
For Fuzzman- L Brennan 1-2 (2f), C Meyler 1-0, D McNulty 0-4 (3f), K McGeary 0-2, C McShane 0-2, R McGlone 0-1, M Kavanagh 0-1
What happened Bradley and was Sludden injured?
Bradley injured, Sludden got the eject button.

It seemed to be a very late replacement.
That looks like a decent Tyrone side, although Donegal seemed to be impressive in their semi final

Tyrone by a point. Listenin to martin mchugh on highland. The cub was at a pro thing in belfast last week and some official asked him to bring the u21 cup back to donegal as the co board wanted it. Níl sé sasta
Great stuff lads, been too long away from the top table In Ulster. Hopefully we can make an impression on the AI and some of these lads can make a a stab at the senior team over the summer.
Very important win psychologically for the all the county teams in Tyrone as Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan seemed to have the beatings of us at U21 and senior level for a good few years now.
Who do we play next? Could it be a Dubs final?
Well done Dooher, Canavan and Logan.
Roscommon on Sat week next Fuzz.
The Dubs play Cork or Tipp.
