Climate change might finally deliver a four division football structure in order to shift the league start to mid April when pitches are playable.

Matties men are on the road and 2 points secured.

Wonder how long it will be until the knives are out?

St Louis into a Dalton Semi Final after beating St Colmans, positive step

From the goals footage St John's looked to have a couple of lads on who I am presuming are minors, did that look to be the case?

Good win. Maybe Waterford one of the lesser teams but good to amass a good score as well.

London game interesting. Both an outside chance of promotion but them a lot more than us.

Maybe ? They have lost every game

Playing now more like most of us expected at the start of the campaign. Systems have been tweaked and we are playing much more on the front foot. Credit due to management and players for turning around a disasterous start to the league...a win against London would satisfy most that a corner has been turned.

Agree they are going the way and direction they should, that doesn't remove some of the questions posed over the car crash start with both results and personnel management.

Are you saying the management set up is at fault?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Wicklow to beat Longford , Carlow to beat Leitrim, we beat London and we go up on score difference... wishful thinking... would need tipp to not win by too much too.

Not impossible but unlikely...

Leitrim need to beat Carlow. If Carlow win that one we can't go up.

Oops yeah that is what I meant. It is possible. Not lottery odds but possible.

Very quiet here. Youde hardly know there was a full round of fixtures yesterday!

And the county must have won too, theres very little comment on that either...

NatSoSaff

Probably due to a mix of the expectation that we would beat Waterford comfortably and the fact it was an away fixture, meaning no one was down to watch or comment on the performance.

Yes, it has also been very quiet on the league front, possibly due to all of the fixtures going as expected. Good win in Toome yesterday though Cargin were missing quite a few so nobody will be getting carried away in the Creggan camp. Missing a few ourselves.

The interest won't pick up in club football until the bulk of county players are allowed back for club fixtures.
