Fermanagh away again. I'm pissing my pants in anticipation.  ::)

Another year of hearing about how if Antrim had there best players playing they would bate Fermanagh out the gate.

Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

Anyone else find it strange that Antrim didn't get a home draw again. Surely they'd have to play it outside the county if they did?

Down haven't had a home match for the first round (barring replays) in twelve years.

Actually, even if Down did get a home game, it would be played away anyway.

No doubt this refers to the fact that Pairc Esler is mostly in Armagh.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Riot police have been requested to be in Breffni to police the parade, assuming the parade commission allow it to go ahead.

Do Cavan folk recognise the Parades Commission though? If not, this could get messy.

Ah. Very good.

The bottom half of the Leinster SFC draw has the potential to be a very competitive little mini-championship. Longford v Offaly (again!!) with the winners to play Westmeath is mouthwatering enough. Then Wexford v Kildare to set up the other semi final spot. I'd say all 5 of those teams would fancy a run to the final. That's the way it should be!

what happens when they get there is another story :(

That bottom half is the alternative Leinster championship as Dublin are out on their own. 4 Div 3 teams and a team that got relegated to Div 4. And if the alternative Leinster final is half as good as this years we'll have a cracker.  ;D

Typical Westmeath and Offaly arrogance talking about final appearances. Kildare have only eyes for Wexford.  >:(
