Liam Kearns happy as Conor Sweeney keeps Tipperary ticking over

Tipperary 3-17 Longford 0-18: It’s now two from four in the race for promotion from Division 3 of the Allianz Football League, according to Tipperary manager Liam Kearns.

Pacesetters Louth are two points clear of Tipp, who have a point to spare on chasers Armagh and Sligo.

There’s a visible split between the top four and the bottom four in a competitive pool, with Longford, Antrim, Laois and Offaly now locked in a relegation scrap, all on two points each.
