Make or break time for Maughan as Offaly set sights on promotion

WITH Dublin in a knockout Leinster Senior Football Championship, Offaly s prospects of a successful season rest on promotion from Division 3 of the National Football League.
The targets for manager John Maughan and his squad of players are fairly straightforward: win promotion and beat Louth in the first round of the Leinster championship.
They are not simple ambitions but they are very achievable and Offaly have reason to be optimistic. With Tyrone folk hero Mickey Harte now at the helm, Louth should be a more difficult task than they would normally be. And Offaly have often found it difficult to beat them – they lived dangerously before beating them in the league last year, and Louth were on their way to Division 4. Offaly lost to Louth in the league in 2019 and 2017 and this game is very much a banana skin for them.
