Replying To Darragh1987: "Rest In Peace to the great Eugene Hughes. One of the finest players to ever grace the county." Yes, very sad news on the passing of the great Nudie. A class act. My uncle (Tyrone) played against him on many occasions and he often acknowledges him as being one of the greatest... RIP bloodandbandage (Cork) - Posts: 457 - 03/11/2025 11:26:02 2642780 Link
RIP Nudie Hughes, for me a player I always remember when watching him playing v Tyrone. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2461 - 03/11/2025 12:52:12 2642803 Link
RIP to the wonderful Nudie Hughes. A tremendous player, truly special, as his 3 all stars would attest to, and a man who fought such a brave battle with his illness. togoutlads (Galway) - Posts: 1105 - 03/11/2025 15:53:15 2642842 Link

RIP Nudie Hughes. Id only started going to monaghan games as a child when he was nearing the end of a great career but I recall his displays in the summer of 88 in Clones a wonderful talent and a really decent man to boot. He had a great attitude to life and remained positive despite the terrible illness he had. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1920 - 03/11/2025 17:39:06 2642854 Link

From a neutral point of view: What matchups do Gaels see between Scotstown and Glenties? Who picks up Roarty? Couple of really interesting battles will develop in this one. Scotstown will definitely have to be stronger around the middle third on Sunday compared to the County Final (Looking forecast to be a similarly dreary afternnoon). Big Gavin & Gallagher (Karl Gallaghers First Cousin) could be a clinker of a battle IMO. ConyersHill04 (Monaghan) - Posts: 8 - 05/11/2025 14:23:30 2643150 Link
RIP Nudie, so many great memories of my child hood, one of them singing "Who put the ball in the Tyrone net - Nudie did, Nudie did!!" Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam. Farney (Monaghan) - Posts: 822 - 06/11/2025 15:51:02 2643286 Link
Monaghan has lost a legend & arguably our greatest ever player... a pure gentleman. To the Hughes Family, my sincerest condolences. Rest in peace Nudie. Monaghan Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 446 - 06/11/2025 22:28:50 2643319 Link

Replying To KingdomofBreifne: "Your league is a mere afterthought. It exists to prop up a championship your county board think is helping your county outfit. For that reason, you've the most uncompetitive championship in Ulster. The delusions of grandeur around the county team is killing the club game in Monaghan."

Replying To farneygael3: "How much will Scotstown win by tomorrow? I am going by 6. Donegal club football is weak, that's junior and intermediate teams bate already" Not so sure about that. Emyvale just about squeezed through last week, and Naomh Columba may as well have gone straight to the pub today given what they put up to Carrick. Tomorrow will tell the tale. Could be Scotstowns biggest test on the way to that Ulster title. Eddie the Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 1269 - 08/11/2025 23:06:45 2643587 Link
