Dubs keen to go back to top tier

SEEING the Dublin ladies in a league final is no surprise. After all, they are the All-Ireland champions.

No, the shock comes with the realisation that they will be contesting the Division Two decider at Parnell Park today.

Why? Quite simple. Back in September of 2009 the Dubs were within minutes of clinching their first All-Ireland title having outplayed Cork for long spells of the final but a late burst from the Munster side saw them come up short.
