After heavy rain washed out six of Sunday’s GAA matches, the chances of April being kept free for club fixtures only appears increasingly slim. “I’m not going to say we knew it, but we’d a fair idea this was going to happen as far back as Monday. And we had an issue with this game from the start, given it was due to be the second game in Portlaoise. The one silver lining for Galway and Roscommon is that the postponement of their FBD league game, already a dead rubber, means they’ll only have to play their final ‘once’. We get another weekend like this, what does that do to the whole master fixture plan?”
