history of ulster championship - game by game - HELP

Since 1980 (27 years ago)...

Armagh have won Ulster 8 times from 12 finals
Tyrone have won Ulster 7 times from 10 finals
Donegal have been to 10 finals but only won 3
Down have only won 3 titles from 7 finals
Derry have also only one 3 ulster titles from 7 finals

Down and Tyrone have won the AI twice in that period
Whereas Donegal, Derry and Armagh have only won it once.

I'm surprised Donegal have made it to so many finals and they must be fed up meeting Derry and Armagh and rarely beating them.

All championship results up to 2000 (downloaded from gaalore.com many years ago)

The file is named gaachampionship.doc but it is actually a zip file.

The only allowed file types are (Allowed file types: txt, doc, pdf, jpg, gif, mpg, png)

If you rename the file to gaachampionship.zip you should be able to extract the following files.

allireland_football.txt
allireland_hurling.txt
connaght_football.txt
connaght_hurling.txt
leinster_football.txt
leinster_hurling.txt
munster_football.txt
munster_hurling.txt
ulster_football.txt
ulster_hurling.txt

The format is

1989 Semi Tyrone 1-12 1-7 Down Tyrone
1989 Final Tyrone 0-11 0-11 Donegal *DRAW*

where the last column is the winner or *DRAW*

much appreciated lads, really surpassed expectations on this. tho i am particularly interested in the down teams for each of those games from 90 onwards. I have picked up the 2000 on but 90-2000 still struggling

1983 - the last time an Ulster final has not involved a sick-county team. Donegal v Monaghan to buck the trend.

QuoteDonegal have made it to three finals but have yet to beat Armagh in the 00's.

Did they give the square ball in the end then?

Donegal are quite likely to get the Anglo-Celt this year, which would reflect their status in the 00's.
