will be interesting to see what sort of crowds come to the Athletic Grounds and O’Connor Park in Tullamore for this evening’s back door games, given the throw-in time of 6.30pm. However, scheduling Sunday evening qualifier ties isn’t part of some new departure from Croke Park. Instead, the games have evening starts because Cavan and Fermanagh are hosting Féile competitions this weekend and supporters of the respective counties will therefore be afforded the opportunity to attend both events.
