By Michael McMullan I was off last week and decided to scale the heights of Mount Errigal on a glorious sunny day. It’s well worth the dander and the couple of bottles of Heineken 0.0 never tasted better in Teach Mhicí. The chat with owner, former Donegal star Kevin Cassidy, invariably turned to football.

AS I sit down to write these final words, I’m filled with a mix of emotions – nostalgia, gratitude, and a hint of sadness. It’s hard to believe that the journey with Gaelic Life that started so long ago has come to an end. It’s been an incredible journey and I’d like to start off […]
THE club championship just keeps on giving. Look at last weekend, we were blessed with more amazing games taking place all over the country. Now we all love the inter-county season and what it brings but I think you will all admit that the club championship campaign has just got that little bit extra in […]
WE have three rounds played here in the Donegal Senior Football Championship so it’s a down week for all clubs this weekend. The week-on-week action is taxing on players so the break will be welcomed by all the players involved. We have one round of fixtures to play before things start to really take shape. […]
LET me begin by saying a very well done to Kerry on their well-deserved win. We cannot have any complaints up here in Donegal as we were well beaten on the day. Kerry showed up from the very first attack and from that moment, for me, the writing was on the wall. Going into the […]
SO here it is. Like I mentioned last week, we have the two best teams in the final and I don’t think anyone can argue with that. This final will be interesting for a number of reasons which we will get into later but one of the most interesting factors is the contrast in styles. […]
BEFORE I get stuck into this week’s action, I just want to touch on the structures around the championship, the fact that they are set to change next year. I understand in the past that perhaps things might not have worked out as we had hoped with a few dead rubbers here and there, but […]
THE games are coming thick and fast over the next few weeks as the provincial championships ramp up. Last weekend Armagh and Tyrone made it through their respective games to set up a mouth-watering clash between these arch rivals. Starting with Tyrone, they looked impressive enough at stages without setting the world alight, but you […]
CONGRATULATIONS to all teams who lifted silverware last weekend as the leagues came to a conclusion with four games across two days in Croke Park. The leagues have been very enjoyable for us as spectators to watch and I’m sure most teams got what they would’ve liked out of those games. Kerry would have been […]
HIS week in the league we have Super Sunday. And it is just that when you look across all the divisions. There is so much to play at both ends of all the tables. This Sunday I’ll make my way to Inniskeen for the derby clash of Louth and Meath, but, as usual on Super […]
