‘I don't see any reason why this group of players can't progress further' - Monaghan boss Gabriel Bannigan
Today at 15:07 Gabriel Bannigan is adamant that Monaghan can continue to buck the odds and target a semi-final place after a dramatic four-point victory over Down saw them qualify directly for the All-Ireland SFC quarter-finals. Bannigan inherited a Monaghan team that was being roundly 'written off' at the start of the season. But after the NFL Division 2 champions made it three wins on the spin to top their All-Ireland group, they are now just 70 minutes away from repeating their 2023 run to the last-four.

Kerry will play one of Galway, Louth or Cavan in All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final
Those are the three teams the Kingdom can be drawn against in Monday morning's All-Ireland Preliminary quarter-final draw, which takes place at 8.30am on the Morning Ireland programme on RTÉ Radio. Kerry go into the draw as one of the four second place group finishers, along with Donegal, Down and Dublin, and they will have home advantage against the third place group finishers – Cavan, Cork, Galway and Louth As repeat pairings from the group stages or the provincial finals cannot take place, Kerry can't play Cork. Other pairings that cannot happen are Dublin v Galway, Donegal v Cavan, and Down v Louth. That means Dublin will play one of Cavan, Cork or Louth in Croke Park; Donegal can face Cork, Galway or Louth, most likely in Ballybofey; and Down can meet Galway, Cork or Cavan in Newry. The preliminary quarter-finals will takes place next weekend, June 21 and 22, with two likely to be played Saturday and two on Sunday. All four are expected to be broadcast on GAA+. The four group winners, Meath, Tyrone, Armagh and Monaghan, have qualified straight for the All-Ireland quarter-finals on the weekend of June 28 & 29. Mayo, Clare, Roscommon and Derry were the four teams to exit the championship after the group phase of games.

‘This wasn't a fair one': Donegal's Jim McGuinness criticises choice of Dr Hyde Park as neutral venue against Mayo
Jim McGuinness has hit out at what he sees as unfair treatment of Donegal in having to go to Dr Hyde Park to play Mayo on Sunday. He believes his county has been singled out by the fixture-makers, with the game set for a venue that was so close and familiar to Mayo. 'We don't believe we should have been here today either, being honest with you,' McGuinness told reports after his side's one-point victory, which sent Mayo out of the championship. 'We think it was very unfair to bring us here. It was the equivalent of bringing Mayo to Omagh, and we also put in an email to the CCCC to say we couldn't get a hotel in the area so we had to stay in Athlone. We had to go beyond the venue to come to play in the venue. 'So it was the equivalent of Mayo going to play us in Omagh and staying in Derry and I don't believe that would happen. I think that would only happen because it's us. Disappointed in that. We made a case and we made the case early. It was on deaf ears.' When McGuinness was asked what he meant by 'because it's us', he was unequivocal in his response. 'Donegal, Donegal, Donegal.' READ MORE He added: 'We knew a month ago that it was going to be here and we also knew we couldn't get accommodation and we also knew that it was going to be difficult for our supporters. We put that case forward and that didn't happen. It happens for all the other teams so why does it not happen for us? Everybody else had a fair shake this weekend. 'If you look at the two counties and you look at the geographical position, then all the games were fair. This wasn't a fair one. You're 38 minutes from Mayo's training ground. We're three and a half hours from Inishowen. It's not fair. If I don't say it, who's going to say it? 'You always seem to be the one that's pointing fingers, but at the end of the day, my job – and it's 100 per cent my job – it's the players. The responsibility is to the players. When you're travelling on a bus for three hours the day before a game, that takes it out of your legs. But anyway, we'll move on. We'll see what they say, which will probably be nothing, and we'll move on.'
