TV turnoff but Ulster passion still switches Canavan on

The northern province’s championship got underway last weekend with the preliminary round meeting of Donegal and Cavan and continues this Sunday with Armagh facing Fermanagh and what should be the eagerly awaited meeting of Tyrone and Monaghan.
The latter pair have won four of the last five Ulsters between them — Donegal claimed the other — but Oisin McConville is among those who have criticised the lack of quality in recent times and the style of play is a regular bugbear.
