didnt realise that,the delay because of the lights confused me somehow.

any tips for tomorrow nights games,havent had time to do any research.might put a small bet on down to beat tyrone.i hope to do a bit of research on fermanagh because im not massively confident of a cavan win.like the look of derry aswell.
Fcuk you I won't do what ya tell me!!!

Cavan beat us twice in the Hastings and looked a decent enough crew.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

did ye have a decent team out?ive heard we got hammered by down in a challenge a few weeks ago with a few of our main players playing.

We were only missing 2/3 missed more v Mayo, Cavan are a big physical team & will give Ulster a good go (some tasty odds as well)

FermGael

Fermanagh are 9/4, the draw 7/1 and Cavan are 2/5.

Fermanagh are a huge price IMO and ran Tyrone close with a number of players missing and have beaten Down as well in this years hastings cup.
They hammered Sligo last week in a challenge match and they have some decent accurate(but small) forwards for a change
This would be the same crop of players who were beaten by the Academy in the McRory cup final a few years previous and again in the quarter final the next year.  They have also got Sean Quigley in from the St Michael's McRory team this year.

Worth a punt IMO.


Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

Thanks for this Fermgael

After the day i had on the gee gees i think i'll stick to fudball for the forseeable

After your post i think i'll go for a wee double on the below

Fermanagh 9/4

Tyrone      4/7

4/7 is very light for a Tyrone team that will be missing 2 key men from the 08 side and another that has hardly kicked a ball this year.
Those Fermanagh and Cavan teams were both handy enough minor sides but I'd say Fermanagh are way overpriced at 9/4.
Monaghan beat Derry fairly convincingly in 08 but are missing their 2 main men from that victory tomorrow night in McCarey and Hughes.
Donegal or Antrim I remember very little about except that there's no way Donegal should be second favourites for the Ulster Championship.

Dougal

fermanaghs odds have drifted to 4/1,i hate betting against my own county but this seems massively overpriced,surely worth a few euro.

Heathen! Blasphemer!

Cavan U21 (4/5) v  Donegal U21 (6/4)

Donegal to win ?  Is this not value ?  From what i heard Donegal still have a large number of players left from last year.

I know Cavan are supposed to be no bad team but thought Donegal would still be favourites.

Someone please correct me if i'm wrong !

Dougal

donegal were second favs to win ulster,before the first round this year so i was surprised to see this.our manager really struggled with donegals game plan last year,so i hope this year he will have come up with a way to cope with it.

i think carlow and down are good value aswell.

Both are even money on Ladbrokes (Cavan/Donegal). Plus you have to consider that Donegal don't have Michael Murphy this year.

Cork have a decent team this year Aidan Walsh in midfield & Ciaran Sheehan, Barry O'Driscoll in the forward line.
