The day that inter-county GAA was set to return to Laois has ended with nothing happening at all.
This morning, the meeting of Laois and Leitrim in Division 3 of the NFL was postponed due to a lack of electricity.
Storm Éowyn has half a million premises without power and the pitch in Ballinamore is one of those places.
It wasn’t electricity in Mullingar that forced a postponement for the Laois senior hurlers, it was a frozen pitch.
They were due to face Westmeath in Round 1 of Division 1B of the league but that game is also off.
While the football has been rescheduled to Sunday, the same option is not available for the hurlers as the Westmeath footballers are in Cusack Park tomorrow.
The refixture will go before the CCC on Monday but finding a window for it may prove difficult.
Laois are at home to Offaly next Sunday and away to Waterford the following week.
They have the weekend of February 15/16 off but that is penciled in for the Fitzgibbon Cup final.
That only leaves the weekends of March 15 and March 22 second available – dates that fall either side of a trip to Parnell Park to face Dublin.
