I know - I'd say the draft league fixtures will be out next week

Maybe let's the Connacht team book their trip to NYC nice & early.

Do we have to???

commonman · October 03, 2011, 11:00:51 PM

nothing to do with connacht /new york as the five counties go in rotation. Next year Sligo go to New York and Leitrim go to London.

I presume the draw at this time of year allows for the comipilation of the master fixture list this side of Christmas

Have a feeling we'll get Mayo in Castlebar.

They did them this early last year as well. I was in Ireland a year ago and I remember calling Mr. Wonderful with the results of the Ulster Draw.

First time 2 outside managers came up against each other in the Ulster championship.
Paddy O Rourke V The Baker. Can Antrim improve on a nothing year for them? Would defeat send Armagh into freefall?
Should be a fascinating tussle*

This is oriors hypothetical draw so this tie may not even take place - if it dosent comments do not apply*

Down will win ulster in 2012

QuoteDown will win ulster in 2012

They are bound to eventually win something in this century, so one of these years you will be right. Probably not 2012 though.

Edit: The flukey draw may help.
