2011 NFL Fixtures: We get four at home, praise the Lord

Four home three away for the first time in ages.

Antrim away
Derry home
Donegal away
Laois home (a minor miracle)
Meath home (another miracle)
Tyrone away
Sligo home

Could have been worse. Home games are all winnable, and a couple are nice local affairs which will have a mind of their own. Looking forward to it.

Nice to get Sligo at home along with Laois and Meath. some spicy battles there to enjoy. Lets just make sure we get the team sheet right this time

I should add I heard the fixtures were released this morning on Newstalk, looked them up and found the full list in the Irish Examiner.

Its nice to get Laois and Meath at home but Antrim, Donegal and Tyrone away! A few more miles on the car next year so.

Should be some really good games in the league this year and it should set us up nicely for the championship. Does anyone else think that whoever gets promoted out of this league will be hard to stop come the summer?

Yep, exciting draw!

Guess we may leave the car facing north!! Looking forward to it already!

Antrim away 6/2/2011 at 2.30pm

Derry home 20/2/2011 at 2.30pm

Donegal away 27/2/2011 at 2.30pm

Laois home 13/3/2011 at 2.30pm

Meath home 20/ 3/2011 at 2.30pm

Tyrone away 3/4/2011 at 2.30pm

Sligo home 10/4/2011 at 2.30pm

Good draw. Nice to be getting Laois at home eventually. Will they know how to find Newbridge at this stage ?

No Saturday night matches under lights.

Derry at home on a Saturday afternoon ? Wonder what the thinking behind that was. Why not Sunday ? Parking will be a nightmare in Newbridge on Saturday.

my mistake on 20/2/2011 derry match

No games under lights on sat nights,could have made good weekenders in donegal,belfast or omagh.

Seconds ahead of me JME, and after me laying them out all nicely on another thread!!!

Or four hours ahead of me now that I look again!

Thank F**k we have laois at ahome. I reckon the queens dont know where newbridge is now its been so long since weve played them there! Same goes to meath.

Sorry about that TK, heard them when I was out early this morning. Always a nice time to see the fixtures and plan a weekend or two.

Having looked again at them there will be some big crowds in Newbridge. Laois for the annual punch up, Meath and Sligo.

Looking forward to it already.

overall the fixtures look great well done padraigh ashe getting things right at last

Tough year ahead, although you just can't tell with the league. This year again proved it's impossible to predict and impossible to read anything into it. Armagh promoted, Mayo in Division One final... Doesn't add up.

Are the dates and times set in stone or are they just penciled in? Last year they put out the dates for all the matches to be on the Sunday at 14:30 but then changed them a couple of weeks later.

Realistically we should be able to win our 4 home games, Antrim and Donegal away are winnable leaving the match away to Tyrone as the one that will decide who tops the table.

Well here's hoping so at least.

Anyone info on Season Tickets??

they will send you e mail if already a member
