Our Vocational School team won the All-Ireland title against Leitrim in the curtain raiser [to the NFL final in 1995 which, in reference to the column title, was played one week before Donegal knocked out Down in the Ulster SFC preliminary round, 25 years before the column was written]. Brian McLaughlin, Eamon Reddin, Barry Monaghan and Ray Sweeney were all on that team and would go on to represent the county at senior level.
Three of Donegal's newcomers — Stephen Cassidy, Michael Doherty and Barry Monaghan — got on the scoresheet, while established forwards Adrian Sweeney and James Gallagher shared seven points between them… The win was a great start for new manager, Mickey Moran, who had four debutants on the team.
