Quote from: Armagh18 on March 12, 2025, 09:48:05 AMHopefully Jimmy does us a favour and puts out a strong team against Tyrone.

Could see Armagh, Tyrone and Mayo all end up on 7 points. Does it go to a mini league with results between the 3 or points difference?
Points difference, head-to-head and if still same paper-scissors-stone.

It's overall points difference isn't it. Not just from the games between tied teams? Seems very unfair when changing rules mid competition that may impact scoring opportunities but hey Ho
Relegation not the end of the world. Did the last two All Ireland winners come from Div 2 and look what happened Derry after winning the league last year celebrating like it was the World Cup final   ::)

I think it depends where you are. It helped Armagh because it allowed them to blood new players, record confidence building wins and work on alternative strategies. Some sides would get more out of playing top teams week in week out.

Quote from: Armagh18 on March 11, 2025, 04:02:40 PMWould love to see Donegal get there and then send out a B team, would maybe wake up the GAA into moving the games to avoid this situation in future.

Sure it happened a few years ago when Mayo got to the final and played Championship the following week. Did it wake up the gaa ? Did it fcuk . It makes a complete mockery of the competition.


Mayo's effort to get around that was to rest nine first choice players in the round 7 match at home to Monaghan which the Farney men was pleased with as they won and stayed up.


HQ for a few years now wanted to scrap the provincial championships so aren't going to accommodate it by giving a two week break at least between the league final and start of the provinces.  They clearly don't have a high regard for the league competition either with using this years competition as a guinea pig for a load of new rules and worse of all changing rules again with two games to play.

Rounds 6 and 7 are known for mad results.
Nothing is sure until the final whistle in round 7.

I know in the Armagh leagues last year there was a mini league with results just between the 3 teams counting, so in this case Armagh have a win and a draw so 3 points, Mayo the same and Tyrone 2 defeats.

I thought that was a directive from Croke Park but maybe it was just our county board.

Anyone know for sure?

Hopefully those responsible are caught.



Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

I think both Tyrone and Derry could fall under that category. Both have new management and young players to blood in from both their recent success at youth football. That being said everyone wants to be playing div 1 football against the best teams in the country.

I'm pretty sure every county board can decide themselves although I may stand corrected. Tyrone used a mini league a few years ago when 3 teams finished top on the same points, although that was during the Covid year so not sure if that was a one off or not.

I'd say there'll be plenty who won't travel to Castlebar. Rest should probably get a run this weekend in Letterkenny. That said, I can't see us matching Tyrone's intensity, assuming THEY'RE up for it.

If Tyrone aren't up for that one they may quit.

Can't see Jimmy wanting to lie down to the neighbours, hopefully he wants to get to a league final to give the squad players a go in Croker.
