Roscommon will play in Division 2 next season of the Allianz National Football League after a dramatic Division 2A success at Offalys expense in Tullamore on Sunday.

Ger HenÓghan had an outstanding game for the Rossies, hitting 1-3 in the opening period and 2-5 in all, as the Connacht mens goalScóring ability won the day.

Niall McNamee was inÓgood Scóring form for the Faithful in the opening period, at the end of which they enjoyed a lead of 0-11 to 1-5.

Cathal Creggs goal on 47 minutes and Enda Kennys ten minutes later were crucial for Roscommon, with Kennys coming two minuts after Neville Coughlan had scored the hosts only major.

McNamee hit 0-6 in all but it wasn t enough.

[b]Monaghan finish top of Division 2A, winning all seven of their games, after edging Leitrim by 1-14 to 2-10 in Cloone.[/b]

Ciaran Hanrattys goal helped the Farney men to a half-time lead of 1-6 to 0-6; however, Barry Prior and Declan Maxwell both hit second-half majors to give Leitrim hope.

[b]5.[/b] If there are wins for Offaly, Longford and Monaghan, then Roscommon, Leitrim, Longford and Offaly will be tied on eight points each and playoffs will be required to decide who qualifies for Division 2(one team), Division 3(two teams) and Division 4(one team) from among these four.

[b]6.[/b] If all three games finish level, Roscommon will finish second, Leitrim third and playoffs will be required to separate Longford/Clare/Offaly to decide one reaming place in Division 3 2008 and two remaining places in Division 4 2008 and TM Cup 2007

[b]8.[/b] If Offaly/Roscommon and Longford/Clare matches are both drawn then Leitrim will finish third if losing/drawing versus Monaghan, with Roscommon finishing second on score difference in the event of a Leitrim draw and playoffs will be required to decide the separation of Clare, Longford and Offaly.

[b]10.[/b] If Longford/Clare draw and there are wins for Monaghan and Offaly, then Leitrim, Roscommon and Offaly will be tied for second place and playoffs will be required to determine the remaining one place in Division 2 and the two remaining places in Division 3 with Clare, Longford, Carlow and London playing in Division 4 2008 and TM Cup 2007.

Most of the possible combinations of results are included above. Overall the positionÓgoing into the last round would suggest that the best possible scenario for Leitrim is that a win/draw next Sunday will guarantee at least Division 3 football in 2008 with the possibility of a Division 2 League semi-final on Saturday week and Division 2 2008 depending on the combination of the Leitrim/Monaghan and Offaly/Roscommon results.

The worst possible scenario after the combination of the results of all of the games next weekend is that Leitrim will be guaranteed at least a playoff to decide the remaining places in Divisions 3 & 4 2008 and the last place in the TM Cup. See Permutations 5 & 10 above.

The 2008 League Divisions will look as follows:

Division One
Donegal, Mayo, Kerry, Tyrone, Galway, Kildare, Derry, Laois

Division Two
Dublin, Cork, Westmeath, Armagh, Cavan, Meath, Monaghan
& [b]One[/b] from Roscommon/Leitrim/Longford/Offaly/Clare

Division Three
Limerick, Fermanagh, Louth, Down, Wexford, Sligo
& [b]Two[/b] from Roscommon/Leitrim/Longford/Offaly/Clare

Division Four
