Banty hands out two championship debuts in Monaghan team to face Down

Roscommon and Wexford are among the others to have shown their hands ahead of this weekend’s football action.

MONAGHAN BOSS SEAMUS ‘Banty’ McEnaney has named his starting team to face Down in tomorrow’s Ulster quarter-final showdown.

Attacking duo Gary Mohan and Andrew Woods will make their championship debuts, while regular forward Conor McCarthy has been named to start at wing-back.

Throw-in at St Tiernach’s Park, Clones, is 4.30pm [live on Sky Sports Arena]. The Farney county’s ladies team host Armagh in their Ulster semi-final beforehand at 2.15pm.

While Banty’s opponents, Down, are among several of the counties not to have yet shown their hand ahead of the weekend’s provincial football action, others have.

Anthony Cunningham has announced his starting 15 as Roscommon go head-to-head with Sligo for a place in the Connacht final, while Wexford manager Shane Roche has named an unchanged team for their crack at Dublin in Leinster.

Longford-Westmeath, Clare-Limerick and Waterford-Tipperary have also named their respective sides, and they’re all available to view below, along with the weekend’s football fixtures.
