It was a mixed day for the midland counties.
Offaly just about squeezed into the Division Three National Football League final after losing in Ennis yesterday.
Declan Kelly and Mickey Harte's side led for long stages of their contest with Clare, however the concession of two late goals meant The Faithful County had to settle for defeat on the day.
The game finished 2-14 to 2-9.
That result means Offaly are promoted to Division Two for next year.
Elsewhere Laois were narrowly beaten away to Fermanagh 1-18 to 2-13, while Westmeath's last outing in Division Two produced their first point.
Dermot McCabe's side drew with Roscommon on a final scoreline of 1-19 to 2-16.
