Leitrim should be able for Carlow at home. Carlow had a fine league, winning promotion at the top of Division 4 where Leitrim were second last from the bottom. However, Carlow has not kicked on in the championship and conceding 6 goals against London the last day over does not bode well. However, London seems to be welding a fine team together (dark horses for An Tailteann?). Leitrim raised a bit of a spurt against Sligo and then again against Galway, after a terrible league campaign.

Can they do it? Yes. Should they do it? Yes. But will they do it? The jury is still out on that one.

But go and support and enjoy. It's at home after all.

Carlow conceded those 6 goals to Antrim their last day out.
Just to keep some perspective on it. Antrim are tougher nuts than London I think.

We should be competitive at least.

Thanks for ruining the best day page on hoganstand.

I was talking to some very shrewd Leitrim men and they all agree. They believe it needs to get back to being what it was after the non-existent qualifiers.

Back to normality- good luck to Steven and the lads on Saturday. Potentially the last game of the season but I hope and expect it is not"
Tusla is 80 miles from Tulsa but both are in Oklahoma although Tusla close to Arkansas.

We hear about these mythical days of fabulous posts on the forum but I am visiting it quite a few years now and it always has the same posts like clockwork cropping up without fail every year.

Super. Thanks for the update. I hope ye get a good home draw. Maybe Donegal. Be some crowd. The boyos from the strip in Tullaghan will be right up for it. Fascinating. Love to all.

strange that they did that considering they were not playing London thanks so much. So if you are coming onto this forum please get your facts straight as it is tiresome and draining reading fictional things thank you for agreeing.

Brilliant to see the coverage of the club league campaign. Only for this forum I wouldn't know who was top of the league and what teams were playing well, so many great insights. I hope this coverage continues for the championship. How's the Roscommon club league getting on, I hear Kilmore are going well.
Yurrttt!

Replying To LM94:  "Will barry be back for Carlow Saturday evening"
No but could make it for next game if we get over Carlow. Good news is Paul Keaney looking good for a few minutes against Carlow. Looks likely starting 15 will be same as Down game. Rumours that Carlow are missing key players through injury? Mood in Leitrim camp upbeat according to reports & both Poacher & Ryan on social media media encouraging a big turn out on Saturday

Kilmore are a middling intermediate team with no hope of winning an intermediate championship in Roscommon this year. They might be doing ok in the league but won't be bothering the likes of Tulsk, Fuerty, Doms and Eire Og in the championship. I'd say they might struggle to survive. Think they've multiple amalgamations at under age too. Always produce some players though. Well done to all. That's the state of play in the Ros. Love to all.
