Offaly's 2019 Allianz Hurling League fixtures revealed

Kevin Martin's Offaly senior hurling team will start their Allianz Hurling League 1B campaign away against Waterford on Sunday, January 27.

Offaly caused a stir in last year's league, beating Dublin by 13 points in Croke Park, before slumping to a number of defeats.

The Championship brought further hardship as Offaly lost out in the new round-robin Leinster format, taking heavy defeats at the hands of Galway and Kilkenny. They were relegated to the Joe McDonagh Cup for 2019.

In the league, they will face strong opposition, starting with Waterford, before facing Dublin in O'Connor Park on February 3, Laois on February 16, Galway on February 24 and Carlow on the March 3. 

The game against Carlow in Netwatch Cullen Park on the final day will be particularly significant as Carlow are the side replacing Offaly in the Leinster Championship proper in 2019.
