So a four point win for Derry over QUB would send them through at the expense of Armagh, unless Antrim somehow manage to beat Tyrone by 4?

I wonder if Nelson McCausland has as much fun as I had working out the club names?

[armaghniac]

Thon Diarmaid MacSeáin was man of the match, he put in a good evening's work.

McParland did his case no harm for Armagh.

If Donegal win, will it not depend on how much they beat Fermanagh by?

Will a 3 point win not be enough for Derry to go throw? Are they not on +9 points and Armagh are on +11

If donegal beat Fermanagh then Derry will probably finish top of the group (if they beat queens) then dobegal would need to beat Fermanagh by a massive score to go through as best runner up (roughly 12 point victory I think)

If antrim bate Tyrone by 6 what does that do to yer computations.

We'll burn their shellsuits.

To further complicate things I'm pretty sure that teams level on points are settled by scoring average and not scoring difference. This is calculated by dividing total points scored by total points conceded.

Can anyone confirm this is still the case and what is the logic in doing it this way? To me it just adds further complication and rewards negative teams who concede less. If you win a match 15 10 you would get an average of 1.5, whereas if you win 10 5 it would be an average of 2. Or even better a 4 1 victory would be much better than 15 12. Seems stupid to me.

[StGallsGAA]

There are not enough expletives in any language to describe the complete dumbfcuk decision to bring a McKenna Cup match involving Antrim and Tyrone to Clones.     How can any committee with more than a single brain cell between them arrive at a decision to further increase the lengthy travel involved for supporters rather than attempt to reduce it in the current weather conditions?

Armagh would have been the best bet but that not excately handy for Antrim either
