McKenna Cup: Bonner claims Donegal may not be able to field team for potential semi-final

“It’s pure madness in terms of how the fixtures are coming.”

Declan Bonner claimed Donegal might not be able to field a team next Sunday if they make the semi-finals of the Dr McKenna Cup following the 1-12 to 0-14 win over Monaghan today.

Shaun Patton’s injury-time penalty save from Shane Carey in Ballybofey meant victory for Donegal, who trailed 0-7 to 0-2 at one stage in the first half and lost full-back Brendan McCole to a second yellow in the second. Peadar Mogan scored the only goal of the game on 51 minutes and should Donegal avoid defeat in Derry on Wednesday they will top Section C.
