Replying To gaelsboy:  "Down the standout team, though Offaly will likely have a bit to say about the business end of the cup. Weird how you can beat Donegal and still end up in a cup with Leitrim, London and Waterford makes no sense, maybe the powers that be need to re think it but I'm also sick to my teeth of them changing the format every other year so screw it, give it 5 or 10 years and see if we are still getting repeat winners"
They've since also lost to Offaly in The Tailteann Cup so I don't think your point is valid really.

My predictions :


Fermanagh v Sligo - Fermanagh

Laois v Down - Laois

Offaly v Wexford - Offaly

Antrim v Wicklow - Wicklow (barely)


Yes Down are a big name, but not invincible.

You will never know what you get with Laois.
