The Greenfield Foods Monaghan senior football championship gets underway this weekend.
Scotstown open the defence of their title on August 16th a week after the championship has gotten into full swing.
The action in Monaghan gets underway on Saturday, when Inniskeen host Ballybay at four o’clock to open group two. Latton and Aughnamullen begin their group two campaing at seven o’clock.
Magheracloone are the odd one out in group two and must wait until Sunday week to get their campaign underway.
While the action in group one gets underway on Sunday, minus defending champions Scotstown. Truagh and Cremartin get group one underway at two o’clock on Sunday.
Whereas, Clontibret host Corduff at five o’clock round out the round one action.
Whose going to win?
Scotstown are the obvious favourites for the county title. With Monaghan county stars Conor McCarthy, Jack McCarron and Rory Beggan, it’s hard to look past the defending champions.
Inniskeen had a good 2024 and with Ciaran McNulty and Andrew Woods in the forwards, could be the team to challenge Scotstown.
Indeed, newcomers Magheracloone may spring a small surprise. The intermediate champions will look to make a dent in the senior grade after a good league campaign.
Sean McCaffrey and Fergal Monaghan discus the possibilities on the latest edition of the Monaghan way.
