Senior Football Championship:.
Last Sunday we bowed out of the Senior Championship, being beaten by Latton , currently the reigning champions, by the narrow margin of two points. While many would never have countenanced us competing in the senior championship, it has to be said that leaving two chances behind us was very disappointing but also something to be proud of, but the reality is that we just could not replicate the display we had against Scotstown. We again play Latton on Sunday next 9th September, away in Latton, in the League. Throw in is at 12.00p.m. Note early time. The Monaghan GAA website will keep you up do date for definite fixtures.
