Neil Loughran and Paul McConville assess the state of play across the four divisions of the National Football League and the potential fate facing Ulster teams.


They also take a closer look at Conor Laverty’s Down after the Mournemen secured promotion to Division Two with their win over Sligo on Sunday.


We look at the improvements made under Laverty and why their situation could be a mirror image of their neighbours Armagh, whose faith in Kieran McGeeney eventually paid off.
