Derry star Chrissy McKaigue remains to be convinced that we will see inter-county teams battling it out later this year.

Speaking to Sportsound Extra Time, the Slaughtneil clubman said it will be a big achievement to get the club championships completed due to the uncertainty that exists at present.

“You have to have a sense of realism when talking about sport at the minute,” he remarked.

“There isn't even a guarantee that the club championship will finish off.”

The dual player continued: “The club championship at the minute is tricky. We don't have access to changing rooms, we are probably coming into worse weather and the training demands are a little different in terms of the restrictions.

“As great as it is to have sport back and as important as it is, it is certainly a far-from-perfect template that we have. I am not 100% sure that the inter-county is going to happen.

“We can only use the club championship as our example going forward to see if things can work and if it is sustainable, but you have to take it one stage at a time.

“There is a lot to be said for taking a step back, analysing and seeing if it can be done.”
