Donegal V Derry Ulster Quarter Final June 16th

[Derry Optimist]

I totally agree with all the sentiments as expressed by tBrick 18 re the Derry/Donegal championship game on Saturday week. It would appear highly unlikely that the four key players that he mentioned will be fit for that  match. So unless we get lucky for a change it would seem we will have to pursue the Qualifier system for the third time  in four years at the first stage. If we do lose, hopefully, everyone will be fully fit and willing to do their best for their county in the Qualifiers. Compared to any other of the thirty two counties,as far as I can ascertain, Derry have had more of their key players missing for the fourth championship in a row. I  thought Damian Cassidy was decidedly unlucky with the unavailability of so many top players during his tenure but John Brennan has arguably fared worst in this regard. However, we will always live in hope.Doire Abu.

I take it all back, Brennan says we're in good shape.
Derry by 6 points.

Murphy and Kavanagh doubtful for us. Maybe not so clearcut an outcome as some are predicting.
