They’re known as the Mournemen, but defeat to Offaly on Saturday would leave Down with a mountain to climb if they are to avoid relegation to Division Three.
With four games played in the Allianz Football League, James McCartan’s men have a solitary point to show for their efforts courtesy of a battling draw against Meath in Navan last month.
The Royal County are also locked in a relegation dogfight and are on two points while both Cork and Offaly are on one point along with Down.
