When are the draws/ fixtures released?

With the lunacy around Armagh support you could see every League home game being all-ticket, in fact I'd say it's a certainty. Can also see a Saturday night league opener away to Dublin so the GAA can squeeze the Orchard ££ tit to the max.

In regards to USFC, highly unlikely to get a 3rd gift draw in a row,probably don't want one.

Ah Jases let the dust settle and let clubs at it.
We can't be sure what type of inter Co calendar or structure/format etc will be in operation or playing rules with talk of special Congresses and the like.

Provincial draws usually in October, NFL out sometime in October too.

If we get Cork at home we won't have much travelling as the other 7 Counties are all in a row in North Leinster and South Ulster.

We're going to bring home the SAM

Sure the AI winners deserve a home game 1st round?

That crossed my mind but wasn't sure if it is protocol. Speaking of protocol - wonder will Tyrone give us the Guard of Honour, didn't in 2003 NFL!

I thought the league was a shite competition that no one wants to win any more?

we were away to the dubs last time we played so would we not be at home this time?

If Dublin are coming to Armagh then it would be full anyway. To get the maximum orange £ someone like Derry or Tyrone would suffice, presumably we'll be away to Donegal.

Down at home would be nice though.

Does this still happen? Did it ever happen? Genuinely curious, very soccer

I'm sure Tyrone will be praying to draw us next year in the first round, massive target on our backs now but where else would you want to be?

Not sure if we can be drawn away to Dublin as we played down there in 2022 in the first round but it'd be a good night down there and Dublin would be chomping at the bit to put us back in our box I'm sure.

The term 'All ticket' is an outdated term from when games were pay at the gate. All games now are all ticket, all digital ticket. I've seen many people still use this term. What they really should say is "All paper ticket".
Remember that Ticketmaster digital tickets can be printed out too. Maybe a better phrase would be "Tickets through club".

The National League Division 1 is actually an awful competition. It will be interesting to see how Derry approach it next year. The main discussion point during the competition is who wants to make the final. In what other sport would you hear it?

It's not really. Doubt ourselves and Galway would have got to were we are now without having league experience to develop players against the best and blood new lads? McGrane and Conaty only really got proper game time for us this year in the league and both were key for us in the championship. Same with Galway their injuries, forced to develop a squad which stood to them later on
