Donegal are favourites, admits Doyle
July 18, 2014
Armagh take on Donegal in the Ulster MFC final.
The Orchard County are the surprise packets of the competition, having trumped Cavan and Monaghan to book their place in Sunday's St Tiernach's Park curtain-raiser, and their manager has the utmost respect for their provincial final opponents:
"They're a good side. Declan Bonner had done a lot of work with them," the Armagh CBS teacher observes in The Irish News. "He's had some of these lads at U16, U17 and minor level and Donegal are going in as favourites, but we have nothing to lose.
"We have come along out of nowhere and we are in an Ulster final and anything can happen.
"Hopefully they'll give Donegal a great game but everyone was expecting Donegal to come through and they've done it. They beat Derry and then Antrim easy enough in the Ulster semi-final.
"They've played well and they'll be a hard team to beat, but if our lads put in the hard work and we get a bit of luck, anything's possible.
"We're delighted to be there. At the start of the year, nobody would have seen us getting there with the side of the draw we were in." Tweet
