Contents

The one disappointment for [captain Sean] McVeigh and his Donegal teammates is that they will not progress back up to Christy Ring Cup level despite their Championship win last Sunday. He admits there was still some confusion on the matter even right up until late last week. That ambiguity was finally clarified, albeit late in the day.
