Double header for Dubs as GAA confirm football fixtures

Dessie Farrell’s footballers will follow Micheál Donoghues team in double-header.

LAST UPDATE | 16 May 2023

DUBLIN FOOTBALLERS WILL share the Croke Park stage with their hurling counterparts for their first appearance in the new round-robin format of the All-Ireland football championship.

The once-again crowned kings of Leinster after last weekend’s rout of Louth, will headline the Sunday afternoon at 4pm with a clash against Roscommon, after Micheál Donoghue’s hurlers face Galway in the Leinster hurling round-robin.

The GAA have set the fixtures for the last weekend of May. Ulster finalists Armagh will surely get a huge welcome from an inflated fanbase after coming so close to a first Ulster title since 2008 when they host Westmeath at the Armagh Box-It Athletic Grounds at 4.45pm on Saturday, 27 May.

Also on the same day is the meeting of Louth and Cork, which has been set for Pairc Tailteann in Navan with a throw in time yet to be determined. 

While at 7pm, Derry and Monaghan, who already met in the Ulster semi-final, will have a chance to meet again. That game will be hosted in Celtic Park with huge numbers expected to follow the current Ulster champions. 

Here are the fixtures in full.
