Shocks in the first round of the league

Post by Rynaghs Biffo »

OK, I know, its only the first round of the league but I'm amazed at some of the results in the first round league matches at the weekend.

Allianz Football League Div 1A
Dublin 0-10 0-11 Tyrone
You'd expect Croke Park under lights would infleuence the Dubs

Cork 2-07 1-12 Donegal
Cork at home, very difficult to beat, but Donegal did.

Allianz Football League Div 2B
Meath 2-07 0-13 Cavan
Fair enough


== Sunday 4 February, 2007 ==

Allianz Football League Div 1A
Mayo 1-11 0-11 Kerry
Even though in Castlebar, I'd would of imagined Kerry to pull thru.

Fermanagh P P Limerick
Couldn't of predicted this!!!!!


Allianz Football League Div 1B
Galway 0-07 0-12 Derry
Galway getting beat at home??

Louth 2-14 1-13 Down
Although Louth are coming on, Down should of been favourites

Kildare 0-12 0-10 Armagh
Never could of imagined this.

Westmeath 1-11 1-09 Laois
Nor that


Allianz Football League Div 2A
Roscommon 1-10 2-11 Monaghan
Tough to call

Carlow 1-09 0-17 Clare
Great for Paidi's crew

Longford 5-19 0-08 London
Long way back to London

Leitrim 0-11 0-10 Offaly
Suppose........

Allianz Football League Div 2B
Wicklow 4-09 1-10 Antrim
Goals are the only way to win games in Aughrim

Waterford 2-13 1-12 Wexford
Biggest shock of the day, unbelievable results for Waterford

Tipperary 1-12 0-15 Sligo
Disnt see this coming either


I wonder if any of these type of results will be repeated in the championship??
