Monaghan's All-Ireland MFC semi-final defeat to Kerry yesterday brought back 'bad memories' for Seamus McEnaney.
The Farney County staged a remarkable second-half comeback that just came up short against the Kingdom in the curtain-raiser to the Tyrone versus Monaghan senior clash.
It was 11 years to the day that 'Banty' suffered a one-point All-Ireland SFC quarter-final defeat to Kerry as Monaghan manager.
"It brings back bad memories for me from this day 11 years ago, 2007 when we experienced the same punishment, albeit beaten by two today," he pointed out to The Irish Daily Mirror.
"I'd say today we were probably beaten by a better team."
