Odhran Mac Niallais says Gaoth Dobhair are ‘ready’ to end Donegal’s Ulster Club SFC famine.

The Magheragallon men face Scotstown in Sunday’s final in Omagh, bidding to bridge a gap that goes all the way back to 1975, when St Joseph’s were Ulster kings.

Now, Gaoth Dobhair will look to end Donegal’s 43-year wait.

“We have proved that we can battle with the top teams,” Mac Niallais said.

“To win Donegal, you need to be a top team. We’ll be well ready for it.”

On Friday night, Mac Niallais was presented with the Gradam Shéamuis Mhic Géidigh award, having been named as the player of the 2018 Donegal SFC.

He said: “I’m enjoying my football.

“We had a good year with Donegal and it’s always nice to come back to the club.”
