  7. Championship lift-off!published at 15:32 British Summer Time 15 May 2016

    The long wait is finally over as battle commences for the 2016 Ulster SFC title. We start with two outsiders - Antrim last won the Anglo-Celt in 1951 while Fermanagh have never tasted provincial glory.

    But sure, if Leicester City can win the Premier League......Well, you won't be getting generous odds of 5000/1 on any of these two teams going all the way.

    The Saffrons are on a revenge mission after defeats by the Erne outfit in both Ulster and All-Ireland qualifiers last year. Not long now to throw-in, with the sun blazing down on Brewster Park.
