Everyone will be talking about Offaly and Down, but I'm nor sure if I would fancy Fermanagh either ? sponger (Wicklow) - Posts: 3020 - 13/06/2026 20:46:27 2679347 Link 0 |

I think this years semi finalists are a stronger bunch than last year. Whoever we get in the draw on Monday, we are in for a torrid time next week. Hopefully today's experience of pulling back that deficit will have toughened the lads up for whoever. Down look the favs at this point, in my opinion.

We can't get Fermanagh either way, as Offaly can't play Down again unless it's the final!

Can't happen as Down and Offaly can't meet in semi as repeat fixture so Wicklow and Fermanagh have to play one of them each next weekend.

Well done to all involved in yesterday's comeback and great result. I think yesterday's result and the manner of how it was achieved will give this team momentum and confidence going into semi-final next weekend. Although it isn't good for the supporter's heart. Are we outsiders for the title; yes, but I don't think we should fear playing any team at this stage. I don't think any of the other teams left in the competition will want to play us. Losing last year's semi-final in the manner the team did would be difficult to overcome but this team has resilience. Equally, to bounce back after the disappointment of losing out on promotion to Longford would be difficult to overcome but the team rebounded and beat Carlow against the odds before pushing Dublin all the way. I'm looking forward to the draw in the morning to see who we're drawn against and fingers crossed the team can go one better and get to the Tailteann cup final. wicklowsupport (Wicklow) - Posts: 2237 - 14/06/2026 21:34:19 2679657 Link 0 |

Probably as good a draw as we could have hoped for. Did Offaly bang in 4/5 goals against us the last time we played ? . We need to put that score right on Saturday, at least. Again, if the lads show what they are capable of, a win is possible, but we can't go 9 pts down again. Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 2281 - 15/06/2026 10:21:25 2679764 Link 0 |

Why don't they just tell us the time of the match for Saturday. I need us to be the second match! Wicklowman (Wicklow) - Posts: 1163 - 15/06/2026 12:17:01 2679836 Link 0 |

In fairness i would say all the teams left in the draw wanted us. But great to be there and who knows, on our day we are dangerous and on the other days well...

The site has Offaly versus Wicklow listed as second match. GAA are publishing confirmed details confirmed before end of today. Probably 5pm or 7pm.
