The Offaly boss isn't expecting it to be hard to lift his side.
The focus of the Offaly senior football team turns to this weekend's Leinster Championship opener following defeat in Croke Park at the weekend.
Leinster GAA have confirmed this morning that it'll be a 1:30pm throw-in on Sunday in Paric Tailteann.
The Faithful suffered a 12 point defeat to Derry in the Allianz League Division Three Final on Saturday but boss John Maughan says playing in GAA HQ was a valuable experience and they have no regrets, having already secured promotion for next year.
Offaly only managed 1-1 from play which will be a cause for concern as Mickey Harte's men are likely to employ a similar defensive strategy to Rory Gallagher.
The Mayo man gave a valuable 14 minutes to Johnny Maloney who was returning from injury but also confirmed that Declan Hogan won't be fit in time for Championship.
He doesn't expect it'll be hard to lift his side ahead of their clash with Louth this Sunday:
