Ballintubber and Ballagh set for final battle

Ballintubber and Ballagh set for final battle

Peter Forde’s side will meet Ballaghaderreen in the decider on October 21 after the 2008 Moclair Cup winners beat Knockmore by three points in the second half of the day’s double bill.

The champions — playing without the injured Cillian O’Connor — will be considerably relieved to still be in the title hunt as they trailed by 0-8 to 0-4 midway through the second half. Crossmolina seemed to be in control only for super sub John Duffy to make a dramatic and decisive intervention.
