Dolan's side travel to Armagh this weekend for the first of three tough games.
Dessie Dolan is under no illusions about the atmosphere his side will be up against when they travel to Armagh this weekend.
This is the first of three tough matches for the Lake County which includes home games against Connacht champions Galway and 2021 All Ireland champions Tyrone.
It will also be the county's first game since their exit from the Leinster Championship after a 2-10 to 1-11 defeat against Louth.
Despite the odds being stacked against his side, Dolan welcomes the challenge at what is expected to be a packed Athletic Grounds:
Midlands 103 commentator Gerry Buckley says he and every Westmeath fan are hoping for a consistent performance:
