Apart from the issue of tickets, the main talking point for Donegal supporters this week centres around Donegal's poor recent record at the Letterkenny venue, losing the last six games there.

Donegal meet Armagh in a crunch game and need the win to be sure of their top flight status. Their last  NFL win at the venue was in 2014 against Monaghan in Division Two with a final scoreline of 2-11 to 0-10. The older supporters will remember a famous win over Kerry in 2007 by 1-15 to 0-13, but it has mostly been misery.

The results since 2007 are:
2007 defeated Kerry 1-15 to 0-13
2008 lost to Derry 0-10 to 0-15
2009 drew with Mayo 2-10 to 1-13
2010 lost to Armagh 0-6 to 2-16
2011 drew with Kildare 0-8 to 1-5
2012 - lost to Laois 2-6 to 2-9
2013 - no game
2014 defeated Monaghan 2-11 to 0-10
2015 lost to Monaghan 1-4 to 0-9
2016 lost to Roscommon 0-17 to 1-19
2017 lost to Kerry 1-17 to 2-17
2018 lost to Galway 0-14 to 1-12
2019 lost to Fermanagh 0-10 to 0-13
2020 lost to Galway 2-7 to 2-8
