In last years qualifiers an ulster side faced a non ulster 14 times with the ulster province winning 9 times.

Before I go off betting, which games have been called off today?
Monaghan v Kerry is off anyway.
Bright conditions now should melt the sprinkling of snow this morning and the Connacht Clasico in the Stadium will go ahead barring a major deterioration in the weather here, which, to be fair, is always likely in Galway.
Cavan-Meath is also off.
That was ten minutes ago.
There are now dark grey skies as far as the eye can see and itâs snowing again.
Thatâs a fucking joke about Monaghan-Kerry.
They announced about 9 it was on.
Absolute shower of incompetent idiots
I do not remember games being called off this willy nilly in the past.
Do others?
The GAA canât control the weather as far as I am aware .

With the exception of Croke Park, GAA pitches canât really take any sort of rainfall.
Are you for real. They knew this was coming with a week.
Itâs mind boggling dumb.
Make a decision and go with it.
These pitches in worse nick were playable in worse conditions years and go from my memory.
Itâs and go complete insult to people travelling and god the players. Itâs farcical
Thatâs incredibly false.
You have no idea
What bog ball game is being shown live today?
Ya true very few people are inconvenienced by these cancelations anyway. The type of lad that travels from kerry to Monaghan in February for a league game probably hasnât much going on upstairs anyway.

Actually quite a few are.
But firstly the players.
And plenty pitches can take lots of rain
Is Longford Armagh on?
I think he is for real in his assertion that the GAA canât control the weather.
Youâre suggesting that the match should have been called off a week ago?
You now appear to be suggesting that players should be made play in dangerous conditions.
Now thatâs mind boggingly dumb.
Itâs incredibly true.
GAA pitches by and large and very poor when it comes to drainage. The North gets a lot of rain and very few of the pitches are capable of taking it. Matches in Brewster Park and Healy Park (in particular) are in grave danger any time you get sustained moderate rain.
You seem to be very ignorant on GAA matters so probably best you keep your incorrect views to yourself.
Fella there is 4 pitches within 10 miles of me that are unbelievably good at it.
Nemo
Clough Duv
Eire Og
Blarney.
All have top notch drainage systems that allow games be played.
Itâs a farce this is happening. Club games going on everywhere
All the money Tyrone have spent and they did not sort the pitch? For real?
