When you see their performances in the Ulster League it's hard to justify them play in the Junior Championship. $:-\$

Div 4 Final, St.Endas Glengormley v St.Brigids Cloughmills was played at the Mid Ulster Sports Arena on Saturday. Old rivalries were renewed but the Endas ran out convincing winners 3-7 to 0-9. A game of 2 halves due to the weather but the biddies couldn't create a goal chance.

Old rivalries renewed alright and generally apart from the St Endas No. 10 who was completely nuts it was a tough competitive game.

Was certainly a game of 2 halves...the Biddies should have tried for a couple more goals in the first half but the wind certainly picked up in the second and Crossey started to dominate. He is a great player.

On another note the referee was one of the worst I have seen in a long time - for both teams. I am not sure who he is.

Congrats to St Endas.

True. We got Burt in the first round of the Ulster Junior last year. There is Donegal Junior Championship but its the senior winners that go into the Ulster Junior.

This is on the Ulster Web site, anybody know if its on for sure as I wouldn't mind going to it. A lot of people thought it wasn't on Dunloy's radar at the minute.

At least the weather forecast gives it to be dry at the weekend.

Dunloy 2-13 Loughgeil 1-7 I think was the final scoreline.

Comfortable enough win for Dunloy. To be expected as they have started back training but they looked sharp enough and good sign that there were quiet a few regulars on the bench. Thought Darren Quinn looked sharp and Paudie Shivers turning into a good hurler.

Winker sent off (I would have bet my house on it if I had one). Two yellows, could have been about 7 but Ray Matthews ussed a bit of licence to give Loughgeil a chance. His licence was arguably within the spirit of what the game should have been and the game largely was but it could have seen someone get a leg broke.

On another note - hope to see more championship matches in Cloughmills. Super pitch generally and the condition it was in at this time of year was great.

Any word on whether the League is going to be run this year again, havent heard anything as of yet. surely there would be an announcement for fixtures etc..

Frankie Quinn sent out an E Mail asking for entries so I'm sure it will continue.
