The ball in Kerry’s court, says McEniff

THE contrasting nature of the Kerry and Tyrone victories in the weekend Bank of Ireland championship quarter-finals in Croke Park means Paídí Ó Se’s team will have an advantage against the Ulster champions in three weeks.

That's the view of Donegal manager Brian McEniff, who expressed delight that his own team is still in the championship but disappointment that their replay with Galway next Sunday evening has been fixed for Castlebar.

"Obviously it doesn't help Tyrone that they beat Fermanagh with such ease, whereas Kerry were given a good test by Roscommon," he said.
