THERE will be no Leinster county in Allianz League Division One next season after Dublin and Kildare were relegated from the top tier on a dramatic final day of football.

Cork retained their Division Two status, relegating Offaly in the process, and they will be joined in the second tier in 2023 by Limerick, who beat Fermanagh 1-16 to 0-14 to seal promotion. It will be their first time at that level since 2007. The winners of Division 3 are Mickey Harte's Louth, who concluded their campaign with a 2-17 to 1-13 win over Wicklow.
