Replying To veterngaa:  "Blackhill don't have a catchment area as they don't have a primary school feeder… you are telling me aughnafarcon school feeds blackhill? The school is closer to aughnamullen, toome and blayney fields.

Would you head on back to Louth where you belong"
You obviously think that because St Enda's NS is a feeder school for Scotstown. The first part of the name must be confusing because it's in ScotsHOUSE not ScotsTOWN.

Replying To Monaghan37:  "Hy farney, scotstown could win the next 10 in a row and they still wouldn't be the most successful team in the county . You just know your place and go back into your box in whatever wee village you're from. #37"
You must be a Liverpool supporter with that comment. Seniors in the worst position it's ever been but let's talk about #37. Stick to the hurling lads.

Any of the pictures of the 37 championships available in colour or are they all in black and white?

Inniskeen played like mayo chasing the dubs, no belief to win it.

Clontibret through to final but doubt they'll be happy with the performance. They are some club in fairness. Conor Boyle still comfortably the best defender in the county. A rolls Royce player. Francis Hughes very good again, as he has been all championship.

Awesome to see Kieran Hughes back playing ball for Scotstown. One of those players you'd pay in to watch. Feels like Scotstown haven't got out of second gear yet this year and they probably won't need to get out of it in the final.

Clontibret good in fairness and have big strong physical team. Will give Scotstown plenty of problems and will be a good tactical final. As for Inniskeen they just lack that bit of know how .. Scotstown just so comfortable winning by a couple of points. They can play anyway.

They don't have another gear as they proved in Armagh against Glen last year. They are the Mayo of the Ulster Club Championship. Big fish in a small pond. Will be waiting longer for another Ulster than Blaney will be for a County. Don't have the stomach for the big hitters. Even McCurrin can't solve that problem. The "United Parishes Spice Boys", I would call them.

Scotstown cruised to an easy win, completely outplaying a poor Inniskeen side that never stood a chance. The victory was a real team effort, with players from all of Scotstown's villages stepping up. As for the final, Clontibret look unlikely to pose a serious threat if Scotstown continue this form.

I would agree they blew their chance last year against Glen.

Bit harsh. Come back to this post when Scotstown win ulster. Mark my words. It's coming home

The tears are usually in Moynas when the United Parishes show their soft underbelly in Ulster.

That's a sad effort at disproving my facts. Then again the truth always hurts. As they say, lad if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. Come back to me when the United Parishes come close to emulating your great team of the 70/80s. They did it without any high price transfers. But then sonny you would know nothing about a team that had a stomach for a fight. That was before you earned your high stool.

Inniskeen were disappointing to say the least - never had that never say die attitude. They were just going through the motions. Scotstown never really pushed and the end scoreline flattered Inniskeen. They were extremely dodgy at the back and could of been punished with 2 goals due to goalkeeper errors. Kieran Hughes orchestrated a lot and Inniskeen didn't handle this for long periods of the game. I expect this will be McEntee's last year with them.

Ballybay will rue the last 10 mins of their game. Clontibret showed great character but they are relying on the older lads - Conor looked out of sorts throughout the game. Unfortunately I think it will be another Scotstown wash out - however I don't see them getting as far as they did last year in Ulster.

This Monaghan forum used to be a decent wee page with contributions from a dozen or so guys whose opinion you would be interested in reading regardless of whether you agreed with it or not, the mark of a good forum.

Now it's a refuge for 'comedians' and trolls. Shame
