Trying to plan around work for the football quarter finals. Is there any indication what days of the bank holiday weekend the provincial winners will be playing?


They will all be played on the Saturday and Sunday, unless maybe Dublin draw a big team like Tyrone or Cork meaning a possible stand-alone game on the Monday.

Oh please please please. Let us draw mayo. If we get that far. It can't be Dublin, so its a 1 in 3 chance.
Please let it happen. That would make my year.

If Tyrone/Derry/Armagh happen to get through to the quarterfinals, their drawn match won't be played on the Monday as its not a bank holiday up North.

Probably the amount of Dubs living out there now (including myself) who are optimistic about the Dubs and its rubbing off on them ?

Speaking of optimism from Meath fans ... look at this Gem I came across on the Meath forum..

Meath are three games away from an all ireland final. Meath are improving lots with every game. With a little more application, luck and plenty of belief...anything is possible!

Couldn't make this stuff up.

I predicted ALL bar 1 of the second round... and that was Derry so for the 3rd round I'm going with
Galway V Armagh - Armagh - Armagh have come of the back of two good wins fair enough they were weak teams but any team scoring 8 goals means business.

Wexford V Laois - Wexford - People seem to discredit wexford very easily for some reason but they have a good mix of young and older experienced lads laois are in the twilight years...

Kildare V Tyrone - Tyrone - I have to go with Tyrone they got the bum deal in Ulster with Donegal in first round. They had plenty of time to train and bounce back and they have worked thier way from the bottom up... I can see them being in the last 4

Derry V Cavan - Cavan - I know im being hopeful about this but Cavan go into this game as underdogs and that suits them. They should of destroyed Fermanagh when they had the extra men but for some reason held themselves back. Derry are a good team... getting old though and if Cavan get the good start they can nip this one...

This is my opinions on the games this weekend as for the finals its def Mayo and Donegal going through but I'd love to see London put up a fight and they will
