Ah Jaysus, just got my hands on the Andersonstown News this week. Milltown still complaining...'they roughed us up....they kicked us....they stopping playing hurling.....we didn't expect....'

Is he a father of the lads that play?
RIP

Yes:

Two of Mr McErlean's sons, Peter and Cathal McErlean, have played hurling for Tyrone. His daughter Caroline has also played football at senior level for her county.

Yep, I remember one of those lads playing a good few years ago in the Rackhard Cup v Sligo.

Caid Derrygonnelly played last week and beat Devenish so its not there first game after winning the championship.Derrygonnelly are still not safe and 2 wins might even mean they could make the top 4.

Sorry - I was being stupid. Of course they played last week.  Point still stands though.  Of the bottom 3 teams the Gaels have the hardest last game.  It'll be a bit strange if St. Pats and the Gaels go down..

[keeping an eye on things]

Very tight looking at the bottom and indeed top!! 

Don't think the Gaels have necessarily the hardest game of the bottom 3.  Ederney have to travel to Tempo who most likely will still need a win to qualify for the semi's.  Donagh have home advantage against Newtown and the local rivarly will be a big factor here, although Newtown have nothing to play for in terms of places I'm sure they would love to beat Donagh.  The Gaels travel to Teemore who already have qualified for the semi's but I'm sure they won't be doing the Gaels any favours!! 

Think that Ederney and Donagh have a bit more bite about them than the Gaels appear to have at the moment but it's very close to call!!

[FermGael]

I wonder what they story is on points difference??
Could be important in terms of top 4 and relegation.

If Enniskillen are to stay up, then they have to beat Teemore and hope Tempo beat St Josephs's or Roslea beat Derrygonnelly.

St Pat's need to beat Newtown and that the Gaels and St Josephs's both get beat.  That would leave them in a playoff with St Josephs's.
Derrygonnelly have to win and they are safe.  If they get beat and Enniskillen and St Josephs's win, they will be in a playoff with the Gaels.

Tempo and Devenish need  to win to guarantee  the playoffs.If they lose, and Belcoo win, a playoff could follow.

Again scoring difference could be crucial.  If scoring difference is counted, then things are simpler.
Tempo and Devenish are in the top 4. 
Derrygonnelly are safe and its between St Pat's, Enniskillen and St Josephs's to stay up with St Josephs's looking like having an easier game.

[sammymaguire]

away to Cavan and Antrim is not too bad for travel reasons, Wexford & Offaly are a tad irritating

[Caid]

Division 3 next year isn't going to be easy and could produce some decent games
