    Glen v Scotstown (16:00 GMT)

    In 1989 Scotstown won their fourth Ulster club SFC title with a 2-9 to 0-5 win over Tyrone club Coalisland at the Athletic grounds in Armagh.

    The club have since been in two Ulster club finals, in 2015 and 2018, but still wait for a victory to see them lift the Seamus McFerran Cup once more.

    Could today be the day?

  9. Jack McCarron has 'come home' to Scotstownpublished at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Glen v Scotstown (16:00 GMT)

    It was a transfer that was not universally popular within Monaghan, but Jack McCarron's move to Scotstown has worked out well for both parties.

    Leaving Junior club Currin to join the club where his father is a legend drew a lot of attention and criticism, and put the forward under the microscope.

    A six-point haul in his first senior county final, Scotstown's eighth win in 11 years, was vindication enough.

    Helping them to a first Ulster title since 1989 would end the argument.

  11. Glen boss O'Rourke knew Scotstown 'meant business' after summer matchpublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Glen v Scotstown (16:00 GMT)

    Earlier this year, with the dust having barely settled on the inter-county season, Glen and Scotstown got together for a challenge match at Garvaghey ahead of their respective county championships in Derry and Monaghan.

    Both panels were missing some of their county stars, and while it was organised primarily to get minutes into legs, the level of Scotstown's performance was not lost on Glen boss Malachy O'Rourke.

    "You could see that night that they were hungry and well organised," said O'Rourke.

    "I knew they'd be there or thereabouts at the end of the year. It's proven that way and it's set up for a really good final."
