You would think Omagh but Breffni a smaller pitch which may suit Antrim more

Just looking at the draws on the website. It notes -

3rd placed team in each group is safe from Relegation
4th placed team in each group play off (2 Semi Finals & Final)
(Losing Finalist is relegated to Division 2 and Intermediate Championship for 2025)

Is the 2 losers of the play off semi final relegated as well, so 3 relegated after senior champ?

DIV 1 bottom team in league and relegation 'final' losers relegated via championship. Two relegated only.

Div2 League Winners and IFC winners promoted.

Same process for relegation / promotion from Div2* /3,
* Div 2 relegation is straight playoff from two x fifth placed teams

So why would you want to win the relegation semi final?

To play in a relegation final that if you lose you get relegated?

I can't tell if you're being serious or on the wind up. In case it's the former, then please be advised that winning your relegation semi-final ensures you are safe and do not play in a relegation final. The loser however does go forward to the relegation final, where they must win to survive. Simple enough concept really

What happens where the same team wins Div 2 / Intermediate or the same team ends up relegated through both league and championship...

[Round or stuffed]

the winner of the relegation final is also relegated, so barring a major upturn in form for Ardoyne, the 5th place team in group 2 gets automatically relegated

If that was the situation, would there  be a relegation play off ?

I don't think so as one team would already by relegated

Well that's the three previously unbeaten Div 1 teams have lost this weekend.

[Hoof Hearted]

Strange results this weekend
3 No. 7/7 win records before this weekend yet all 3 lost their 8th game.
I know they're glorified friendlies but still.

The beauty of sport, unexpected things happen. Life goes on, and as 4 teams qualify for league semi finals this year, this weekends results have opened the door to an interesting second half of the league season.

Great to see the Hightown Drunken Louts out again at the weekend, not only abusing our players but one of their own...........absolute disgrace
