Replying To Boxtyeater: "That's it in a nutshell. It'll be some travesty if Wexford win both games and get done on the H2H." Boxtyeater, you're dead right , it'll be a total travesty if we lose out on the head to head !! Yellaman (Wexford) - Posts: 126 - 16/03/2024 19:31:14 2531492 Link
Replying To leitrim4sam: "I've just seen that the Wexford Vs Tipp game tonight has been postponed pending a re-fixture. This game has to be played tomorrow surely!! With all the complex permutations for Leitrim and other counties the only fair thing is to have all the final rounds of games played at the same time on the final day of the league, and let the best team go up. Final round for all teams is down for next week March 24th at 1pm. If this game isn't played tomorrow between Wexford and Tipp, or mid week, then I hope our county board and others refuse to play the final round of games until it is played. If we all play the final round bar the outstanding Wexford vs Tipp game, then going into that game if it's at a later date, , when it is played, it may be that Wexford will know a win will promote them and Tipp know they have nothing to play for. Completely unfair I know I'm ahead of myself and maybe ranting here but I have seen rubbish like this happen with division 4 before. It wouldn't happen with any other division. Let's hope they play the game tomorrow, or mid week, or wait until they have it played and then all play the final round at the same time together. Well done to Andy and the boys today. I turned the radio off after we were 5 points down and came back to level and then Laois got the goal to go 3 up. I said "same old story" To come back from that at the end and win and Laois to hit the post with the injury time free that would have drawn it - maybe just maybe our luck is in at last. Great stuff lads" Yeah we went up to Patricks Park, then we were all brought up to Ferns. Both pitches unplayable. Biblical rain. There were some big floods on the road home.

If LM win and WX win we go up LD and CW can only get to 8 pts. If WX win and LM and CW lose its +/- Some race Dodgy_Pass (Leitrim) - Posts: 381 - 16/03/2024 20:41:31 2531520 Link
Replying To Dodgy_Pass: "If LM win and WX win we go up LD and CW can only get to 8 pts. If WX win and LM and CW lose its +/- Some race" What about the Wexford and Tipp game?? What if Waterford beat Laois on the final day? Stranger things have happened. Wait until the Wexford vs Tipp game is played. By my reckoning- a few combinations out of Wexford, Laois, Longford, Leitrim, Carlow and Tipp all can still be promoted right now leitrim4sam (Leitrim) - Posts: 672 - 16/03/2024 21:26:06 2531541 Link
Laois are promoted. They are +33 even if Waterford some how bet them they won't be them by much more than a point or 2. Leitrim wexford Longford are not making up that difference. It's a straight shootout now with Longford in the driving seat as they are the only team out of the 3 with destiny in their own hands. Unfortunately for Leitrim I see Longford winning against Wexford and we will prob beat tipp in carrick on the last day and finish on the magic 10 points but it won't be enough. Yes we can look back at the last second goal against Carlow and curse it but we shouldn't have bet Wexford in carrick. Funnily if then results had to reversed and we bet Carlow and lost to Wexford we would not already be in Div 4 for another year as both Longford and Wexford would have us on head to head regardless what results happen next weekend. lugdrum (Leitrim) - Posts: 357 - 16/03/2024 21:47:59 2531551 Link
Replying To Yellaman: "Boxtyeater, you're dead right , it'll be a total travesty if we lose out on the head to head !!" Laois lost out on promotion to Wicklow last year on head to head rule. It's tough for teams going into final round knowing that they could win their game and still lose out on promotion. saorkick (Dublin) - Posts: 13 - 16/03/2024 21:59:51 2531553 Link
Coach Moran needs to be offered a contract extension on foot of that sensational result yesterday MylesNaGopaleen (Leitrim) - Posts: 30 - 17/03/2024 12:48:53 2531636 Link
Replying To MylesNaGopaleen: "Coach Moran needs to be offered a contract extension on foot of that sensational result yesterday" I totally agree! That was our best result in years! Great work management and team, you have given us all another day out, let hope it's a good one for all! Leitrim@1960 (Leitrim) - Posts: 15 - 17/03/2024 14:52:22 2531678 Link

Replying To Leitrim@1960: "Give yourself a Moan free st Patrick's day you will feel all the better for it!" What's your problem ? I was only agreeing with a previous Leitrim poster........ now who needs a moan- free day ?? Yellaman (Wexford) - Posts: 126 - 17/03/2024 17:52:04 2531716 Link
Replying To Yellaman: "What's your problem ? I was only agreeing with a previous Leitrim poster........ now who needs a moan- free day ??" Good win for Wexford today delighted for you! Hopefully you turn up next week against Longford! Take good care of yourself and to be honest I don't moan you get nothing for it!

So if we beat Tipp and Wexford beat Longford then we go up? Is that right? leitrim4sam (Leitrim) - Posts: 672 - 17/03/2024 19:15:03 2531740 Link
No reason why ye won't beat Tipp next weekend. Andy deserves credit for having the team peak just at the right time. The local (Cavan) ref should do ye no harm either. I hope ye make it to Div 2, best of luck. martinjoe (Mayo) - Posts: 516 - 17/03/2024 19:29:00 2531748 Link
Replying To leitrim4sam: "So if we beat Tipp and Wexford beat Longford then we go up? Is that right?" I think so. We would have it on the head to head? 3rdmidfielder (Australia) - Posts: 337 - 17/03/2024 19:30:45 2531749 Link
Replying To 3rdmidfielder: "I think so. We would have it on the head to head?" If we win we go up unless Longford win in Wexford. Even a draw would be no good to them. SeanMacDiarmada (Leitrim) - Posts: 408 - 17/03/2024 19:40:16 2531756 Link
Replying To SeanMacDiarmada: "If we win we go up unless Longford win in Wexford. Even a draw would be no good to them." It looks fairly straightforward for your guys now, I can't see Tipp causing you any problems next weekend. But, IF ( very unlikely) Waterford beat laois and we beat Longford, it could come down to score difference. Yellaman (Wexford) - Posts: 126 - 17/03/2024 20:13:23 2531775 Link
Replying To Yellaman: "It looks fairly straightforward for your guys now, I can't see Tipp causing you any problems next weekend. But, IF ( very unlikely) Waterford beat laois and we beat Longford, it could come down to score difference." Were Laois to be beaten by Waterford it will be themselves and the winners of Longford and Wexford as the Leitrim scoring difference is way off now. joeman123 (Leitrim) - Posts: 509 - 17/03/2024 20:27:41 2531782 Link

Replying To Yellaman: "It looks fairly straightforward for your guys now, I can't see Tipp causing you any problems next weekend. But, IF ( very unlikely) Waterford beat laois and we beat Longford, it could come down to score difference." Apparently it won't in that instance as Leitrim wlll the head to head over yourselves. We need ye to beat Longford to go up (and obviously beat Tipperary ourselves). Square_B (Leitrim) - Posts: 1031 - 17/03/2024 21:08:27 2531797 Link
Replying To Square_B: "Apparently it won't in that instance as Leitrim wlll the head to head over yourselves. We need ye to beat Longford to go up (and obviously beat Tipperary ourselves)." Wrong. If ( somehow) waterford beat laois, there will probably be 3 teams on 10 points. In that case it's decided by score difference. Yellaman (Wexford) - Posts: 126 - 17/03/2024 21:14:31 2531798 Link
