Ballymore Eustace's opening game in the Leinster Junior Football Championship that was scheduled for this afternoon has been called off due to an unplayable pitch.

The game against Offaly champions Erin Rovers was scheduled for 2pm in Pullough this afternoon, but the venue was changed to Ferbane GAA Club due to an unplayable pitch at Rovers' home ground.

Leinster GAA have announced that the game has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch at the Midlands club and will be refixed for a later date.

Incidentally, the last time Ballymore Eustace had games postponed in provincial competition was in 2010 when their Leinster Intermediate Championship final against Nobber wasn't played until January 2011, and it was the Kildare men who ended up winning on that occasion. Omens perhaps?
