Cahill: Lay-off won’t affect us

BARRY CAHILL is confident Dublin’s All-Ireland ambitions will not be derailed by being kept in cold storage a week longer.

Three years ago, they were heavily beaten by Tyrone after their last eight tie was postponed by seven days and they now find themselves hanging around a week longer than expected as Tyrone and Roscommon’s delayed round four qualifier is yet to be decided.

“We knew over the last week or two there was a possibility our game could be put back a week so there was a three to one chance you might end up playing either Tyrone or Roscommon,” Cahill said yesterday.
