Ulster final fixed for Athletic Grounds

Ulster GAA has confirmed that next Sunday's provincial football final between holders Donegal and Cavan will be played at the Athletic Grounds in Armagh.

Throw-in is at 4pm.

Clones was ruled out as a final venue as it doesn't have floodlights - and the provision of lighting is required for  provincial final at this time of year.

Cavan secured their place in the final on Sunday, after coming from 10 points down to beat Cavan by one, 1-14 to 1-13.
