By Michael McMullan WITH Naomh Conaill gone from the race, the Dr Maguire Cup will have a new home this winter and we’ll know more after this weekend’s semi-finals. One swing of Eoin McGeehin’s foot saw St Eunan’s over the line after Naomh Conaill’s comeback in the quarter-final. It doesn’t get any handier for Barry Meehan’s […]
By Michael McMullan CHAMPIONS Naomh Conaill face the acid test of their credentials against St Eunan’s in Sunday’s Donegal SFC semi-final in Ballybofey. It’s a repeat of last year’s final won by Martin Regan’s men and the recent group clash that finished level, 0-9 all, in Glenties. St Eunan’s were champions in 2021, beating Naomh […]
HERE it is. We are now in squeaky bum time in the Donegal Senior Championship with the semi-final pairings decided last weekend. The standout clash is a repeat of last year‘s final between hot favourites St Eunan’s and also hotly fancied Naomh Conaill. Before a championship ball was kicked, both of these names would have […]
By Michael McMullan REIGNING champions Naomh Conaill have been handed a tough draw against Kilcar for this weekend’s quarter-finals. With the draw not seeded, the top four teams from the group stages were drawn against each other. Aodh Ruadh Ballyshannon, the only team to have won all four group games, are out against St Eunan’s.

With 14-man St Eunan’s in desperate need of an equaliser, they continuously found their avenue towards that so-called scoring zone […]
THIS weekend the semi-finals of the Donegal senior football championship take place as the last four teams in the county do battle in the race for the Dr Maguire Cup. Long before the competition started, all the talk was about the big four and indeed it has been that way for the last 10 years […]
AFTER all of the shadowboxing over the last number of weeks, the real action gets underway here in Donegal this weekend as knockout championship rolls into town. I feel strongly that a new structure must be looked at going forward, but it is what it is at this stage, so hopefully we will get some […]
By Shaun Casey ST MICHAEL’S are currently going through a period of transition, having lost star players in the shape of Colm McFadden and Christy Toye over the last few years. That means the youth are getting their chance to shine, led by Donegal star Michael Langan. “We’ve gone through a bit of a period […]
DONEGAL SENIOR FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND THREE ST EUNAN’S V CLOUGHANEELY Saturday, O’Donnell Park, 1.30pm REIGNING champions St Eunan’s have edged closer to a place in the knock-out rounds with a thumping win over Bundoran last weekend.

By Shaun Casey GAOTH DOBHAIR will be without their main scoring threat in Eamon Collum along with a host of other household names when they travel to Glenfin on Saturday evening.
