Replying To TheWagonWheel-N91Y529:  "Been following the results in the Leitrim club championship for a while and I'm half tempted to put a few quid on Fenagh. They've been close in recent years have a nice crop of players coming through and now have the new manager in as well. Do Leitrim people think they have a genuine chance of winning it this year? interested to hear what people closer to it think."
Save your money, unless it's money you can afford to loose. They had their chance a few years ago, I can't see it happening this year.

Wouldn't write them off completely with the quality they have but I'd have serious doubts about their ability to get the job done in the big pressure games. In previous years they haven't been able to get it done , if they are still standing after this weekend they will be doing well in my opinion.

Why are mohill your favourites please so millions? Is it because you are from there and have happy memories of the place thanks? Or is there a specific reason why you prefer mohill over Carrick or Kinlough or Manorhamilton please? Interesting to find out why it's your favourite place? I love this type of stuff so much. Thanks in advance for letting me know.

Replying To meathbasedfan:  "big win for Fenagh over Ballinamore, they seem to be coming good at the right time, they have to be up there now as favourites along with Mohill."
Wouldn't agree at all to be honest Fenagh have had several opportunities over the last couple years with a big hype train behind them and failed to deliver when it matters most don't see how this year is going to be any different.

Predictions for this weekend

Senior
Fenagh v St Mary's
Both teams produced their best performance last weekend. This could go to extra time.
Mary's by 1

Ballinamore v Allen Gaels
Ballinamore are huge favourites with the bookies 1/10. I don't think that's fair. Both teams are missing players, but Ballinamore has the stronger overall squad and should scrap it.
Ballinamore by 4

Intermediate
Aughavas v Melvin Gaels
All the talk, even on the National papers, has been about Melvin Gaels' new manager. I don't know what the reason for the change was. It's a strange one, as Melvin Gaels was doing well.
Aughavas have had a good championship to date and have been lucky with injuries.
The long trip and small pitch will not benefit Melvin Gaels.
Aughavas by 3

Bornacoola v Dromahair
Bornacoola must win and hope Drumkeerin loses to Annaduff. Bornacoola is close to full strength and will be a challenge to the already qualified Dromahair.
Bornacoola by 2

Drumkeerin v Annaduff
Two poor defeats in a row have put Drumkeerin in a precarious situation. They will be hoping that Gortletteragh and Dromahair will do them a favour. Otherwise, they will need to win here.
Annaduff is now strong favourites for the Intermediate Championship and is close to full strength.
They should be too strong.
Annaduff by 6

Carrigallen v Gortletteragh
I fancied Gortletteragh for the Intermediate Championship, but they are besiged with injuries. Gortletteragh's defence, which was superb throughout the league, is now their achiles heel. Carrigallen's weakness is their forwards, which are only averaging 11 points a game. A loss for either team will have them facing into a difficult relegation final.

Semi finalists
Annaduff
Aughavas

Quarter finalists
Melvin Gaels
Dromahair
Gortletteragh
Bornacoola

Relegation Final
Drumkeerin
Carrigallen
