RELEGATION PLAY OFF

On Saturday Armagh and Donegal will meet in Stewartstown at 2pm in a TG4 relegation play off. The outcome is straight forward. The winner will remain in the senior ranks while the loser will have a second bite at the cherry against either Leitrim or Mayo to play senior football in 2026.

The game is a repeat of the Ulster final which Armagh won easily. Since then the Orchard girls conceded a late goal to draw with Meath and were beaten by Kildare by two points. Donegal on the other hand suffered a heavy defeat to Galway and turned in a much improved performance against Tipperary but still lost.

Confidence will be low in both camps but with the stakes so high motivation will not be a problem for either management.

 

Monaghan’s Anthony Marron will be the man in the middle.
