Awful goal, poor shot from Cassidy and nightmare from keeper Derry well on top.

Ball like a wet bar of soap might be the excuse used by the keeper. Meath looking flat so far.

1-4 to 0-2 after 20 minutes.

Meath right back in it with a silly Derry breach. 1-5 to 0-5.  Keeper makes up for his error with that two pointer free, another point follows and Meath lead 0-9 to 1-5 after 30 mins.

Pure dirt from the Meath midfielder, how that wasnt picked up is shocking

The Clogher Nr 15 in a similar boat. Its not that hard a choice to make, all be it an unfortunate one to have to make.

Omagh CBS aren't playing the same day though are they? I'd choose club all day but it's almost 2 once in a lifetime opportunities

Yes thats why I said similar and not the same.

Why has Skinner been left on for so long, man has been like playing with a man down

Bad move by management starting him I think.

Should have done what they done with him all yet. Bring him off the bench with 15mins to go.

I'd say that didn't help. Poor call.

He started in the semi final due to a late injury but yeah definitely better suited to a sub role.

Clogher are going to have serious regrets after this unless their shooting improves quickly.

Still plenty of ice and snow laying but it's thawing this afternoon.

Nancy gone. Tisdale out the door too.

Correct decision against Hughes there. Ridiculously charged into the man trying to buy the 50m advancement and give Beggan a chance for two.

He didnt, it was incidental contact.

The free was for overcarrying. He overcarried it because he daftly tried to convince Cawley that the solo and go was being impeded by running into the man.

No he didnt. There was contact, it was incidental. He overcarried the ball alright.

Yes he did. He changed direction to ensure he made contact with him, stopped and turned and appealed to Cawley, then tried to play on when he realised he had nothing coming to him and was rightly done for overcarrying.

I should have knew better than engaging with the man who is always right.

Kilrea's win was back in 2007, when the younger of the Kielts would have been playing I think.

Cross win the year after Glen's four in a row, so 2015?

Sorry,this is correct, we got there again 7,8 yrs ago, beat Crossmaglen and Carrickmore before losing final to a Down team, Burren maybe

That was the 2016/17 final.

Any word on Maghera moving away from their model of accepting every good footballer in south Derry without the need for academic requirements, asking for a friend.

A big leg up must be said, shocking when there is a year group that they're not competing

St Pats is not and has never been a grammar school so I don't see the point you are trying to make? You've omitted the fact that they pull from a large area of north Derry also.

Rannafast Final

St Pats 2-16
CBS 2-14
