Sam Maguire Qualifiers 2022

About 2,500

Christ, imagine Louth v Mayo came out. Bedlam over tickets.

How many season tickets are in Mayo, there were more than 3000 in previous years. There is a minimum size required , you have to accommodate the season ticket holders and have some tickets for families of players etc.
If Louth get a home draw then they should be allowed nominate a neighbouring ground of reasonable size, e.g Navan or Newry.

It'd be horsed in Croke Park as a double header. Louth would be happy with that and Mayo supporters love ''The Journey''.

Would love a day out in Croker for Armagh to be honest. And the pitch would suit us

When are the draws made?

[Rossfan]

Possibly depends whether there's a Preliminary round required?
Will be required if  any or all of Tipp, Cavan, Westmeath or Leitrim win.

[Farrandeelin]

When are the draws made?

Don't know, but let's hope Des Cahill isn't presenting the programme whenever it is being done.

[Cavan19]

When are the draws made?

Don't know, but let's hope Des Cahill isn't presenting the programme whenever it is being done.

The draw is after the all the provinces Semi finals have been completed.

When are the draws made?

Whenever Seamus Flood is free it will be in the diary.

[Farrandeelin]

The song 'Oh I just can't wait to be king' from the Lion King has been replaced with 'Oh I just can't wait for the draw'.

I think I have worked this out correctly, if either Kildare or Limerick lose this weekend then there will be a preliminary round for the qualifiers.

[sam03/05]

How would Kildare losing trigger a prelim round?
Surely it only applies to Div3/4 teams

[twohands!!!]

Confirmed teams

Armagh
Mayo
Clare
Tyrone
Louth
Cork

Whoever loses from Monaghan/Derry will be in.
Whoever loses from Dublin/Meath will be in.

If Westmeath beat Kildare, Kildare will be in the Sam Maguie qualifiers.
If Kildare beat Westmeath, Westmeath will be in the Tailteann Cup.

If Tipperary beat Limerick, Limerick will be in the Sam Maguie qualifiers.
If Limerick beat Tipperary, Tipperary will be in the Tailteann Cup.

Armagh
Mayo
Clare
Tyrone
Louth
Cork
One of Monaghan/Derry
one of Dublin/Meath
Limerick if they lose
Kildare if they lose

How would Kildare losing trigger a prelim round?
Surely it only applies to Div3/4 teams

Because Westmeath are a Division 3 team who would be in a provincial final in this situation.
It would mean there are at least 9 teams in the Sam Maguire qualifiers, which would mean that a preliminary round is needed to get the number for round 1 of the Sam Maguire qualifiers down to 8 teams.

My understanding is if there are 9 teams, all of them would be put in a bowl and the first two drawn out would play each other with the first drawn getting home advantage.
Similar for 10 teams.
