What's going on with Offaly? 2 really poor results for them

Bit of mystery alright. A number of their 2021 All Ireland U20 winners on that Offaly senior team now and they have the same manager Declan Kelly.

Full time in Ruislip; London 0-10 Down 1-24

With a game to play aren't Offaly already out of the Tailteann Cup?

[Rossfan]

Correct, and Down in Qtr Finals no matter what happens next week.

Down v Offaly a dead rubber. Are many others nothing games.

[Rossfan]

None

[imtommygunn]

Offaly are the only team out(I think all permutations still leave them bottom) as everyone else has a chance for 3rd at worst and the two top two clashes there are a battle to avoid preliminary quarter finals.
