Trillick this evening confirmed that they will run two Masses on the morning of the county final to counteract the Errigal Mass organised for 11am in Garvaghy on Sunday.

The Trillick Masses, one at 7am and another at 11.30am, will allow fog horns to be blown during musical interludes at their second Mass as well as flag-waving, after Errigal encouraged club colours to be worn during their Mass.

The brainchild behind the Trillick double-Mass, Getty Sunken, has also asked permission from the Bishop to allow parishioners to shout abuse at the priest, to warm up for the match itself:

“Yes, we’re hoping we can hurl abuse at the clergy to make sure we’re fully vocally prepared for the big game. Nothing too obscene, just stuff like ‘are ye f**kin blind’ if he stalls when reading. It’s for the common good.”

Already, over 80 Trillickians have signed up for both Masses.
