Scotstown's Kieran and Darren Hughes are looking to redeem themselves in their upcoming Ulster club meeting with Derry champions Glen, after a previous defeat and red cards. Both teams had narrow wins in their recent matches.
The Hughes brothers, Darren and Kieran, have good reason to remember their last Ulster club meeting with Derry champions Glen two years ago in the provincial quarter-final. Firstly, it ended in a nine-point hammering and, secondly, the pair of them were sent off – Kieran just after half time and Darren shortly before the end. Now, they find themselves with a return date against the same opposition, now defending provincial champions.
There’s a further twist as Glen’s manager Malachy O’Rourke led Monaghan to two Ulster titles, which the brothers helped to win. Both the finalists had narrow wins at the weekend. Glen needed a last-gasp point to beat Glenties whereas Scotstown had to go to extra time to defeat Tyrone champions Trillick
