Replying To Gaa_lover:  "Round 1 vs. Waterford Away
Round 2 vs. Wicklow Home
Round 3 vs. London Home
Round 4 vs. Fermanagh Home
Round 5 vs. Limerick Away
Round 6 vs. Antrim Home
Round 7 vs. Tipperary Away

How many points do Leitrim posters realistically expect from those fixtures?"
3 successive home games?????

Replying To Drax_the_destroyer:  "Ballinamore if they happen to be competitive against Salthill-Knocknacarra will be doing well in truth."
Salthill have serious strength from 8-15 and if they get a platform at midfield it'll be a long afternoon for soh. The McGovern brothers are a huge loss arpund the middle but they had good subs the last day to bring in donal feely, mckeon etc. I think bmore can get scores if they supply prior honeyman paul moran who all played very well last week

McGoverns are staying around for game supposedly. SOH gave great account of themselves vs Mountbellew/Moylough. All not well in S/K camp since the Galway win. Might not be as one sided as people are suggesting.

Replying To 3rdmidfielder:  "Hard to tell until you see who is committed and who isn't, rumours off additions from non Leitrim clubs is interesting, Wicklow and Fermanagh/Limerick will be favourites for promotion, but we have to be in the mix. The league is our most important competition we need to get out of division 4 in order to progress."
Would never get excited about any additions from outside the club, most talk of imports in recent years have turned out to be false alarms, or no addition to the setup and didn't last long

Well I cant disagree with that, but It has worked out better for other counties.

Yeah, other counties it worked out . E.g. Roscommon got a few good years out of Conor Cox, don't think we have had too much success with imports. Brendan Gallagher had a credible few years I think, can't think of any others that came in and stuck about long since the 90s.

we had some good ones in the 90's. Declan Darcy in particular, John Owens too and Jason Ward.

Agree very much so millions. Only for Conor cox and the lad in the goals Roscommon would have won much less thanks for agreeing and highlighting this please. I'd prefer to stick with our own players please rather than having a conglomeration of players like other counties. Thanks so many millions.

Conor Cox open to correction was on the Roscommon panel this year but didn't feature as they finished 4th in Division 1 and won Connacht by beating Galway and Mayo.

Conor Carroll like myself is Galway born but I believe both of his parents are from Roscommon and has played his club football in Roscommon the last couple of years.

Leitrim should be looking for all the help they can get. Poacher and his management should be searching for any available inter county footballer with Leitrim connections and you can thank him a million for doing that work.
