Robert Emmet's Slaughtneil, that wee club at the foot of the Glenshane mountain, became the first ever club to win the senior men's Ulster football and hurling titles, and the Ulster camogie final.
On Sunday, Mickey Moran guided the club to their second Ulster football title in three years.
That's some going when you consider that before Moran's arrival, in 2014, Slaughtneil had never claimed even a solitary Ulster football title in their three decades of existence.

Following the Derry side's 0-12 to 0-9 victory over Kilcoo, the tributes started pouring in.
Top of the queue was Kilkenny hurling legend Henry Shefflin:

It was a long queue. Here is just a brief taste of the acclamation and adulation.

This is what got them here. This, and a heap of hard, hard work.
