The losers of next Sunday's Ulster Final replay between Tyrone and Down will face Donegal in the All-Ireland Qualifiers on 26 July.

With Tyrone and Down in action next weekend, the qualifier against Donegal will take place on Saturday week at either Enniskillen or Clones (1615 BST).

If Tyrone are Donegal's opposition, the match will be at Enniskillen while if Brian McEniff's side are facing Down the game will be staged at Clones.

All-Ireland champion Armagh's clash against beaten Munster finalists Limerick will take place this Saturday in Roscommon (1800).

The Shannonsiders were defeated 1-11 to 0-9 in Sunday's Munster decider.

Fermanagh's encounter with Mayo will take place this Sunday in Sligo (1900).

That match sees John Maughan's beaten Connacht finalists against his former Erneside team.

Whelehan row

The remaining qualifier will see the losers of next weekend's Leinster decider between Laois and Kildare facing Tommy Carr's Roscommon team on 26 July at either Tullamore or Portlaoise (1815 BST).

Meanwhile, Offaly hurling has been rocked by the apparent withdrawal from the county squad of the three Whelehan brothers in advance of Thursday's All-Ireland Qualifier against Limerick.

Brian and Barry Whelehan are said to be angry at alleged disrespectful treatment of their brother Simon in recent weeks.

Simon Whelehan was not used in a recent practice match against Waterford and there have been reports that he was asked to act an umpire in that game.

The player in question has failed to make the starting line-up this summer but he was used as a substitute against both Wexford and Dublin.

Brian Whelehan is one of the greats of modern day hurling and was named on the Team of the Millennium.

All three helped Birr claim the All-Ireland Club title earlier this year.

Draw:
Laois/Kildare v Roscommon (Tullamore or Portlaoise, 26 July 1815)
Limerick v Armagh (Roscommon, Sunday 1530)
Mayo v Fermanagh (Sligo, Saturday 1900)
Tyrone/Down v Donegal (26 July, Enniskillen or Clones 1615)
