After four games on the trot, Derrygonnelly will welcome the break from football with relish as they now look ahead to a seventh consecutive Senior Championship final appearance.

Saturday night's victory over Kinawley was just the latest in four huge battles and for Harps manager, Mick Glynn, and his side it is now a time to prepare for another huge battle in the final against Enniskillen Gaels.

Looking back to Saturday night's replay victory, Glynn knows there is plenty to improve on before the November 21 showdown.

"I thought it wasn’t a wonderful performance in our apart but when it was required we did show character and composure in the last 10 minutes to see out the game.

"But there was a lot of aspects earlier in the game we would be a bit disappointed with and we will be working on those," said Glynn.

A goal midway through the second half brought Kinawley back into a game Derrygonnelly were dominating and for Glynn, the concession of goals alongside the lack of goals scored by his team is something they will have to look at.

"We have to take responsibility for it [the goal]. Ill discipline having a man black carded and then another one. It gave them the opportunity to get a goal. If we had our full complement on the field we would be hoping it would not have happened.

"The stats say a lot. They are facts. In the two games against Kinawley, we didn’t score a goal. We conceded three in the games against Ederney we didn’t score goals until extra time in the second game. It's certainly a concern at both ends because we have the possession for creating goal-scoring opportunities and we have created some but didn’t take them "

Despite making another final, Glynn knows his side have not put in a full 60-minute performance yet. Patches throughout games have put them in strong positions but teams have pegged them back and Glynn sees mistakes on their part as a reason for this: "We have played in all our matches in patches and some very good patches. It's not all negative.

"The downside is we haven’t been consistent enough to perform for the full 60 minutes. I don’t think it is down to fitness. You always have to expect the opposition will have a purple patch in any game and it's how you respond to that but I think a lot of the times when we were not performing the way we would have liked it is because of mistakes on our part."

And Glynn knows that if they are not up for the whole game come championship final day the Gaels will be ready to pounce.

With a core of players coming through that won an Ulster Minor title, Glynn knows they will want to kick on now at senior level.

"Any team that wins an Ulster title has to have talent. They won the Ulster minor and that group of players is coming through now so there is talent there and the experience of winning that.

"And they will want to be moving on to the next level and I think it will be an almighty challenge but we will be up for it and it will be whoever performs on the day will get the cup.

"If we are anything less than totally on our game we will be in trouble," Glynn added.
