ULSTER regained the M Donnelly Interprovincial senior football title on Sunday with a 0-15 to 1-8 win over 2008 winners Munster in London.

The Ruislip encounter was the first such final to be played in the British capital and Joe Kernan’s men emerged victorious with delighted captain Stephen O’Neill lifting the trophy.

Kernan’s side were the better for much of the game though did find themselves trailing after a third-quarter Munster comeback. However, Ulster did not let Waterford man Gary Hurney’s goal derail them and scored the game’s last five scores for a four-point win.

Afterwards, sponsor Martin Donnelly confirmed that he will continue to sponsor the inter-pros next year.

He said: “I’ve never been shy about putting my hand in my pocket and I’ll continue to do that,” he said.
