After the stand-off regarding the venue, the footballers of Antrim and Armagh will do battle this weekend for a place in the Ulster SFC semi-final.
The ‘Corrigan Park or nowhere’ saga threatened to overshadow the Ulster Championship, but the provincial council granted the Saffrons permission to host the game.
Now, Andy McEntee’s side have to deal with the small matter of trying to topple the reigning All-Ireland champions.

If they do, it would rank as one of the greatest upsets in the history of the competition. Antrim suffered relegation to Division Four last month and have suffered heavy defeats to Armagh twice in recent seasons.
In 2021, they were beaten 4-15 to 0-14 points by Kieran McGeeney’s men and suffered a 0-10 to 1-8 loss back in the Box-It Athletic Grounds two years later.
The Orchard County were able to maintain their Division One status this season and they are overwhelming favourites to see off the Saffrons.
