Eastern Harps manager Denis Johnson was delighted for his players as they reached the Connacht final and he had a special mention for veteran forward Paul Taylor. The former Sligo footballer contributed eight points as Harps defeated their near neighbours Ballaghderreen to reach the Connacht final and Johnson is in no doubt of the skill that the wily forward possesses. "Paul has that touch of class that sets him apart," said Johnson. "If he gets quality ball, he will cause damage and he proved that on Sunday." Eastern Harps now face Galway champions Corofin in the final and the Sligo side will go in as underdogs, although that could well suit them down to the ground. Tweet
