Donegal Senior Football final postponed until October 7th


Sunday's Donegal Senior Football final between Kilcar and Naomh Conaill has been postponed until Wednesday, October 7th.

Kilcar have confirmed that a member of their panel has tested positive for COVID-19 and are other players from their club are awaiting results. They were due to take on holders Naomh Conaill at Ballybofey at 4pm on Sunday.

Last Saturday the Donegal County Board confirmed that a member of the inter county panel tested positive but that player is not believed to be from Kilcar.  It also led to Declan Bonner's panel self-isolating as a precaution.

Donegal's CCC met this afternoon and made the decision to push back their senior decider until next month.

"The Donegal CCC met this afternoon and made a decision to postpone the Michael Murphy Senior County Championship final between Kilcar and Naomh Conaill," a statement read this evening.

"Yesterday the CCC fixed the times, dates and venues for four fixtures but attached a health warning to two of them. The other three were:
