Offaly learn football fate as Tailteann Cup opponents announced

John Maughan's Offaly senior football outfit will face familiar opponents in the preliminary round of the much-maligned Tailteann Cup, the second tier All-Ireland football competition having its first run-out this year.

Offaly have been drawn to face Wexford, the same opposition they lost to in the preliminary round of the Leinster Senior Football Championship on April 24.

Offaly lost out that day on a 1-15 to 1-12 scoreline with Wexford claiming the carrot of bringing Dublin to Wexford Park for a quarter-final tie. Having lost that game, Wexford too fell into the Tailteann Cup where they've been reunited with Offaly.

The winner of Offaly v Wexford will be at home to Wicklow or Waterford in Round 1.
