County final double header

September 25, 2008
The 2008 Down senior and junior football championship finals go ahead in Newry on Sunday September 28. In the curtain-raiser at Pairc Esler, Bright will hope to shine in their JFC decider against St John's. The Johnnies are gunning for a double, having already beaten Sunday's opposition twice en route to the Division Four crown, but Bright aim to add their scalp to those of Ballykinlar and Dromara. In the Mourne County's club showpiece, holders Mayobridge are favourites to claim yet another title, with opposition provided by surprise packets Loughinisland. For the underdogs, dual star Gareth 'Magic' Johnstone will endeavour to cause chaos on the edge of the square.
