GAA confirms times, dates and venues for League semi-finals and play-offs

The GAA has confirmed the times, dates and venues for the upcoming Allianz Football League semi-finals and relegation play-offs.

A number of counties were already designated to play at home due to the fact that they had less home games in the group stage, something that has left Galway boss Padraic Joyce fuming, with his side having to travel to Monaghan for their Division One relegation play-off.

Where teams had the same number of home games, a coin toss was the next resort though some counties have opted to play at a neutral venue, most notably Dublin and Donegal for their Division One semi-final, which will be played in Cavan.

The same applies to the Derry-Limerick Division Three semi-final and the Cavan-Wicklow relegation play-off in the same division.

Notably, having not had a home game in the group stage, it will be the first time since 1990 that Dublin have been sent on the road for four consecutive League and/or Championship games.

Armagh, Clare, Kildare, Offaly and Longford have all been awarded home advantage for their ties with Roscommon, Mayo, Meath, Fermanagh and Tipperary respectively after winning a coin toss.

It is already known that there will be no finals in Division Two and Division Four given that Mayo, Clare, Louth and Carlow all have Championship openers the week after the deciders are scheduled for.

Should Donegal or Kerry, who are also in Championship action on the last weekend of June, win their semi-finals, the Division One title will have to be shared. A similar situation exists in Division Three with Offaly and Limerick, meaning there could be no League finals played whatsoever.
