Replying To katser: "Would Mullingar be a good venue for a double header...Armagh v Roscommon and Monaghan v Laois? Hyde Park for Kildare v Fermanagh and Tyrone v Cork?" wouldn't have thought Mullingar would have been big enough for 2 games downredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 567 - 02/07/2018 13:30:32 2117690 Link
Replying To katser: "Would Mullingar be a good venue for a double header...Armagh v Roscommon and Monaghan v Laois? Hyde Park for Kildare v Fermanagh and Tyrone v Cork?" Mullingar would be a good venue for a double header for maybe a club game or ladies football. It would struggle to hold the crowd for two teams mentioned above never mind four Cuckoosinging (Roscommon) - Posts: 992 - 02/07/2018 13:30:37 2117691 Link
Replying To thelongridge: "Kildare, Monaghan, Roscommon and Tyrone to win. I heard on Morning Ireland that Roacommon v Armagh Is a local derby of sorts. Seriously, they are in 2 different provinces, maybe 100-120 miles apart." The longridge I heard the local derby comment too...she was clueless god help her!!

Replying To Byanthon: "Fermanagh vs Kildare : Very impressed with Kildare on Saturday their ability to kick 21 points should see them overcome Fermanagh's defence. Laois vs Monaghan : Monaghan have drawn all Division 4 teams to qualify via the backdoor. I can not remember that happening before and I will take them to win. Cork vs Tyrone : Tyrone have never beaten Cork in the championship and 2009 was one of the few times Tyrone were completely outclassed. Still hard to believe Cork can recover from the beating Kerry give them and I go for Tyrone narrowly. Roscommon vs Armagh : Hardest to call but maybe Roscommon have played at a higher league standard over the last few years and this may stand to them." Tyrone v cork will be very interesting, both are running teams so I wouldn't be expecting a lot of kicking in this game, cork have forgotten that you need to score to win games and to score you have to shoot, this is where Tyrone will beat cork, cork will need Connolly to score about 10 points and hope the rest of the forwards manage to stick a goal or two. Kildare should be able to grind down Fermanagh, the confidence will be high now after Saturday's game. Monaghan v Laois, I'd say this game will be close but Monaghan to shade it. Roscommon v Armagh, Armagh have all really take out Clare another division 2 team so I don't think they'll fear the toddies and I think Armagh will win.

Surely they should fix 2 double headers this weekend in Newbridge ha ha. Would somewhere like Portlaois suit the Tyrone v Cork game and Kildare v Fermanagh? Green_Gold (Donegal) - Posts: 1906 - 02/07/2018 14:14:09 2117719 Link

Replying To Green_Gold: "Surely they should fix 2 double headers this weekend in Newbridge ha ha. Would somewhere like Portlaois suit the Tyrone v Cork game and Kildare v Fermanagh?" Can't see Fermanagh agreeing to Portlaoise and I wouldn't blame them. Navan is more likely. kildare73 (Kildare) - Posts: 854 - 02/07/2018 14:32:18 2117726 Link
Replying To Green_Gold: "Surely they should fix 2 double headers this weekend in Newbridge ha ha. Would somewhere like Portlaois suit the Tyrone v Cork game and Kildare v Fermanagh?" you could definitely see Portlaoise for the Cork Tyrone game I'm not sure that double headers will be feasible without dragging some counties way out of the way downredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 567 - 02/07/2018 14:38:11 2117731 Link
My thoughts for what they are worth Monaghan v Laois - Navan Cork v Tyrone - Portlaiose/Tullamore Fermanagh v Kildare - Parnell Park Armagh v Roscommon - Clones (Should have been Breffni - I make it now 4 games Breffni has missed out on this year so far - 2 Cavan home games, Mon v Ferm Qualifier and now this one) a hit for the pubs of Cavan town. bigfrankt (Monaghan) - Posts: 123 - 02/07/2018 14:38:49 2117732 Link

Replying To thelongridge: "Where do RTE get them? The lady is a member of Dublin Ladies football team. She must have travelled around the country for matches." Well, she did say they went straight in to the Leinster final so I wouldn't bank on her having done much travelling. How does that work, by the way - Dublin get a bye to the provincial final?

Replying To downredhand: "Sat 7th July Fermanagh 17:00 Kildare On Sky Cork 19:00 Tyrone On Sky Fixtures taken from Sky Sports.com, so they're sorted not sure of venue yet" Just saw on twitter that Tyrone and Armagh are a double header for Portlaoise at 5 and 7. Fermanagh in Navan at 7pm and then Monaghan at 2pm on the Tuesday in Navan. Don't know how reliable any of this is though. gotmilk (Fermanagh) - Posts: 4971 - 02/07/2018 15:25:29 2117750 Link

He is also on the cccc so i would suspect his info is reliable Cuckoosinging (Roscommon) - Posts: 992 - 02/07/2018 15:30:03 2117756 Link
Laois v Monaghan at 2pm Sunday in Pairc Tailteann Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3748 - 02/07/2018 15:34:16 2117757 Link
I would say Fermanagh got their preferred opponent of the 2 to chose from in Kildare. However after their win at the weekend Kildare should have too much if their heads are right. The Cork Tyrone game is a tricky one to call. It is difficult to predict which Cork side will show up. They have the players to give Tyrone plenty of problems and beat them. Tyrone have been no more than workmanlike in their qualifier games but still possess some of the best players in the country. A tricky game to call it is the type of game in which Cork will show up and shock people. Again Monaghan have got their ideal draw in Laois. However Laois are very well managed and have some very good players. If Monaghan are not on their game this has the potential to be another shock. As for Roscommon and Armagh I fully expect Roscommon to win here. I think they are the strongest of the qualifier teams left and will have too much for this Armgah team who performed miracles at the weekend in beating Clare. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2857 - 02/07/2018 15:40:26 2117761 Link
