DONEGAL’S ALL-IRELAND win will be put on historic record tonight with RTE to screen a documentary on Jim McGuinness’s side clinching Sam Maguire.
‘Jimmy’s Winnin’ Matches’ chronicles McGuinness’s two years in charge of the Donegal panel, taking them from the ashes of Crossmaglen and a first round qualifiers against Armagh in 2010 to successive Ulster championships and then the biggest prize of all.
