Very impressive by Scotstown, but NC looked spent after 20 minutes. Wasn't expecting that. There's an Ulster in that Scotstown team for sure. Maybe more. Eddie the Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 1271 - 09/11/2025 19:15:04 2643721 Link

I've said before they are the county's only hope of an all Ireland title. They'll play connaught winners in semis who'll likely be moycullin. Should have had 4 more goals today farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 442 - 09/11/2025 19:53:51 2643740 Link

The transformation in that Scotstown team in 12months is unbelievable. Last year their legs really let them down. The young lads are top top class and at 18 being ready for Ulster football is some going but the elder statesman among the panel all seem to have improved physically from last year. Credit to them lads, going to the well every year can't be easy. Something feels different this year with the group, the main men have back up that we haven't been seen in long time.

Can't argue with yous there, huge credit has to be given to the Scotstown management taking a chance on the 3 or four young lads all year by god has it paid off. On that how are Scotstown producing these young lads that are instant hits at senior level. From a Monaghan perspective these lads will get their chance in the Monaghan team but I would be of the opinion to go to the 20s and push hard there will be plenty of time for them at senior level !

I think the other teams on this side of the draw are withdrawing from Ulster and the semi because Scotstown are so unbeatable. KingdomofBreifne (Cavan) - Posts: 207 - 10/11/2025 13:00:09 2643841 Link

It was pointed out on Sunday that the entire management team is made up of club men/women which is very rare at that level. The exception being Kevin O'Brien..

Can withdraw if they want but there is no team over the next 3 games that can beat them. farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 442 - 10/11/2025 13:13:55 2643845 Link

The players and the management structure is in place for the Under 20's to make a big push next year. Definitely think the Monaghan Minor team from 2023 has developed more impressively than the Derry team. ConyersHill04 (Monaghan) - Posts: 9 - 10/11/2025 14:05:09 2643864 Link

Derry champions will be a banana skin. If they make it through , I still think kilcoo will take them. 222 (UK) - Posts: 886 - 10/11/2025 18:46:08 2643898 Link
