The FAI Junior Cup kicks off this weekend with a couple of all-Roscommon ties down for decision.
Meanwhile, there’s a top of the table clash in Division One between CP Ajax and Moylough ’79 and while it’s still very early days, any sort of lead at the top of the table can prove difficult to claw back as we head into the winter months.
