Fermanagh v Cavan  in Brewster Park at 4pm

Leitrim v Sligo and Offaly v New York the games chosen for live GAAGO coverage.

Fermanagh v Cavan would be more exciting than Offaly and flamin' NY.

Yeh, tell them to buy extra Pizzas as big Quigley cleaned them out the last time we were up

Cavan and Fermanagh know each other very well especially with Ricey and Kieran Donnelly involved in both set ups. I like Fermanagh doing well mostly sound folk and supporters. Unlike say an Armagh who are difficult to tolerate and lean towards thuggery on and off the field 8)

With Ricey having been involved I expect there is some knowledge of the dark arts in the flooded county.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

That's a fair bit of mental gymnastics to fit Armagh into a thread on the Tailtean Cup.

I'll join in. With Armaghs recent Championship record, it's the likes of them that should be in the Tailteann Cup. It should never have been split on League only

Offaly vs NY will probably still be a better game than any of the Provincial Finals that were on last weekend ffs.

And yes, it's tongue firmly in cheek so no need to bite, but saw the opportunity when you mentioned Armagh. Of course it's far more nuanced than that. But there's an element of truth in it.

One of the bonuses of the Tailteann Cup is removing the possibility of having to sit with/near Armagh supporters.

I didn't realise that Armagh had a rivalry with Cavan but every days a school day.

It's not biting, its simply pulling up nonsensical claims so join in if you want. An element of truth to what?

Big row in the pre match parade 2014?

Your Championship record is brutal. One of the worst in Ulster. And you're the last team to be in an Ulster final, everyone else has got there recently before you. But you do decently in Spring, so that lets you into Sam. If there was a weighting on championship results only (which it should be), you'd be doing well to not be in Tailteann. Mad system we have when you can be grand in Spring, bad in summer, but be rewarded. What was your last big Championship result?

Well I'd forgotten that myself. Given it's so long ago, I expect that very few players are still playing from that time. And I'm not sure what exactly the fans had to do with it either but you if you search hard enough to be offended I guess you will find a reason somewhere.
