This is the draw, neutral venues apparently.
Wont be given a chance, Tipp will be happy, but you never know.

Probably Portlaoise next Sat night?

Up next is Tipp , is the game in thurles? If so 3 games away in the one year is terrible hard on a team that need a break.

Game fixed for 7pm this Saturday. Live on Sky Sports 3.
Queen Elizabeth has cleared her diary so she can sit down and watch it!
She's expecting an improvement from Offaly.

Can't believe Sky Sports are showing Offaly again. I think they're mad. Let's hope Tipp take Offaly for granted, are over-confident. Let's hope Offaly improve an awful lot, play out of our skins and management have much better tactics in place. I really fear if Tipp do get a run on us - they won't let up and we'll get another hammering. Tipp will improve a lot after their win last Saturday. Offaly have to be attack minded and need a really physical tight marker on Seamus Calanan. We really need to get some pride back and this is an opportunity to do that but I am very afraid if things go wrong again.

Main topic for discussion on Premierview is where the quarter finals will be held as they clash with the Garth Brook's concerts.

Tipp it is.
Not the best draw for us but not the worst.
I know no one will give us a prayer. Which is great for an ambush.
The game in Antrim will have brought us on a bit. The 1st time this year we had bit of structure to the team that made any sense.
Tipperary look good at the weekend. They picked off some good scores.
We have to see the team and lets hope Whelehan has no ideas of bring back a sweeper.

Ah lads there is optimism and there is head in the clouds optimism. It's only been 4 weeks since we shipped a 26 point beating and now we are going to give tipp a game. Does anyone actually believe we will have improved enough and that management will have learned enough in that time to get us near tipp?

Agree Bula......we are and have been a shambles all year...and i dont expect it to change though i do expect improvement in attitude......in fairness, reasonably decent personnel picked for Antrim but still played out of position..... we were dead lucky to win that and now people are optimistic? If Antrim were playing Tipp, would they stand a chance? Antrim Carlow Westmeath are our level at the moment like it or not......will do very well to be within 12 points.....I fear for what it will be though......and are Sky stupid or what? Wexford v Clare will be a sell out in Wexford park.....surely that was the one to go after from their perspective....
