Last Saturday, we hosted the Ulster Final of the Ladies Club Senior competition. Our new media tower was in operation for the first time although it still requires some finishing internal work. The visiting media personnel were very impressed and broadcaster and television journalist Jerome Quinn was high in his praises. The players and supporters for Monaghan and Donegal were complimentary about the quality of our facilities.

Sincere sympathy to the family circle of the late Johnny Haughey. When our Club was revived in 1965 Johnny became a regular member of the defence. He played in an era when each defender had his own area of the field to control. We could say that when Johnny patrolled a certain area it was well patrolled. There wouldn’t really have been much left for another player to sweep. Johnny wasn’t only a sound reliable defender, he was also a sound reliable person. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
