I AM delighted that we got past Donegal in the Ulster Senior Football Championship on Sunday.

IT was an extremely poor start to the Ulster Senior Football Championship between Derry and Armagh but the Orchard men won't care too much as they now have a tough quarter-final against Monaghan to look forward to.
THE countdown is now on to the championship in a few weeks and I have to admit we are progressing well.
THE Down senior squad was in Dublin for the weekend for a team-bonding session and it has been a great way to get over our National Football League Final defeat.
REGARDLESS of Sunday’s result the fact that Down hosted Congress with such panache last week needs to be recognised.
