The daft system has thrown up ridiculous lopsided groups again, with Connacht and Ulster finalists merged into the same groups, and Kerry getting the usual 'get out of jail free card'. The Healy Raes must have pulled the balls for that draw. Are they still operating the see through bowls? Terrible draw for Ulster and Connacht,

You totally bottled the final last year no exsuces you bottled it . Worse than us in 21 even .
Armagh we're far better and fully deserved their win agree with the donegal poster it's arrogance from you as usual. Donegal will win it this year" How did we bottle it if we lost to the far better team Clare.
Take it easy all this posting under multiple profiles cant be good for your mental health

Replying To joeman123: "Negativity V positivity
Interesting article in today's Leitrim observer by John Connolly about the above in Leitrim ,particularly in relation to the Leitrim Senior men's team.
He has a fair point when he says the Poacher bashers on social media have had a bad run the last few weeks, with Leitrim unexpected performance against Mayo .Add in U20 and minor successes and my God there is a danger of light appearing!!!!
As he points out failure to push on in the Tailteann Cup will have the gloom merchants in full flight again.
I" Delusion v Reality
There are those amongst us, who, if they were turkeys, would vote for Christmas. They'd convince themselves that it'd be a good idea. Kind of like the Brexiteers or MAGA supporters.
Blind loyalty can often lead to defending the indefensible. People take a stance and are embarrassed to admit they were wrong. Very often they double down and become even more zealous.
Your loyalty is commendable but deluded. The first step on the road to recovery is to admit you've a problem and by you i obviously mean Leitrim football. A couple of moral victories does not make a summer.

Tbf the chap pretending to be from Donegal is not Clare as there's clear differences in grammar
Id imagine he/she is from Armagh as every post is about the same subject
Quite how a poster is allowed to spend 27 consecutive posts trolling another county's thread is another story

Ridiculous draw. Makes a farce of it really. Four div1 sides in the same group, one div1 side in other groups. It's high time they drew these draws from NFL seedings.

Replying To legendzxix: "They could retain the group format with only 2 going through and Round 1 winners playing each other in Round 2. Provincial finalists could be given the carrot of 2 home games.
On the draw itself, Dublin in Killarney would have been an interesting draw. Pity it didn't materialise. Kerry and Dublin played in Thurles in 2001. Dublin declined the offer to toss a coin for home advantage!!" Draw is a joke.Kerry avoid all big hitters and get to practice with new rules.You could not make this rubbish up.

Meanwhile best of luck to u20s tonight.
A squad of whom not that much was expected and hopefully they will confound expectations and the bookies 7 to 1.

I" In fairness being the fourth best team in Connacht at minor and under 20 cannot be deemed success surely?

Indeed but our species is the first species to impact climate. Also the first species to drive mass extinction and we will probably be responsible for our own. No species has ever left such a destructive footprint on the planet before.

Decent draw, home to Antrim, away to London and neutral venue vs Limerick, probably likely to be Portlaoise?
Should be topping the group really,
Hopefully we take it as seriously as last time, winning it out is the easiest ticket into Sam.

No doubt, however, progressive leftists have a huge carbon footprint, they talk about climate change while jetting around the planet. Conservatives are not interested in the topic. Looks ominous.

Replying To ahsure.: "Draw not great, but we will have to beat them at some stage!!!" Beat them once, you expect that. Have to beat div1 sides about 6 times to make an all Ireland final is a silly broken system. There is no way that your Clare/Louth/Meath Munster/Leinster runner up should be seeded ahead of NFL div1 sides. They doubled down by sticking by far the two best of the rest Tyrone and Dublin, into the Connacht Ulster groups too. The end result is farcical l, 4 div1 sides in a group, and two groups with only a single NFL 2025 side.
High time the draw was conducted based on seedings derived from that year's closing NFL positions. This draw today is embarrassingly skewed, and Galway and Mayo have drawn short straws. The final irony now is that Sunday's loser gets Cavan rather than Derry, and Roscommon got a softer draw than both finalists. It's nothing short of absolutely ridiculous.

Replying To TheFlaker: "I live in reality. Working hard within a thriving duel GAA club who are getting big numbers of girls and boys out and keeping them progressing up the age grades. Armchair fans who want constant entertainment don't matter to the grassroots." Club is what it's all about and I've always said that… County football and it's paid managers and coaches have the game ruined… The top brass in the GAA just laugh at guys like you doing your good work for your club… It's all about County for those well paid guys..
