Lovely Leitrim. A David above the Goliaths

When the rare opportunity drops to write about Leitrim, you might think the starting point would be John McGahern, and some devastating quote about love, loss and the tragic beauty of rural Ireland.

Instead, we begin with a table; and not one you would sit around drinking poitin, but rather a league table posted this week by rather Ronseal- titled twitter account @GAALeagueTables, which listed every inter-county team in order of win/loss and points differential after the first two rounds of the National Football League.
