OK that may have been a bit hyperbolic to be fair but reading between the lines I'd say it's a formality at this stage CD

Ah he'll be back all right, that's probably why paul Flynn retired, they're all slowly making their way back for the coronation in September. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 03/05/2019 14:30:35 2181675 Link 4 |
Its like the Beatles getting back together in all honesty. ;) TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4445 - 03/05/2019 14:37:44 2181681 Link 7 |
Not really. If I remember correctly the Beatles were actually quite popular outside their home city. Not sure if all this talk of returning Dubs is a good idea. If Dublin, as we were led to believe, ignored the League as part of the bigger picture then they should be in a good position as they are. If not , then it smacks a little of desperation. Not at all like the Dubs. Hopefully there will be unrest in the panel, a few players like Kilkenny, McCarthy, Fenton, Cluxton and Rock walk out and Gavin will be forced to resign to be replaced by Charlie Redmond. That should scupper the five in a row.

No Llaw bring back pillar, at least his team showed passion and weren't so robotic. It's no wonder RTÉ and sky are showing so much hurling as football is in a bad place at the moment. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 03/05/2019 18:28:50 2181721 Link 3 |
Now now we all know the reason you want to see Pillar back. That's the last time you beat Dublin in Championship football. What was it, startled earwigs? 10 years. Wow!

In all honesty the Beatles never actually got back together bud, they tried but they found they couldn't jell.

Pillar? Thought you Kerry lads knew your football, a terrible manager and people hated that Dublin team's 'passion', myself included.

If Connolly does come back I think it would almost certainly be in a role where he comes in for the last 20 minutes. I can't see him getting his starting jersey back. I'm not sure that would suit him but I could be wrong of course. GeniusGerry (Kerry) - Posts: 2105 - 03/05/2019 19:13:38 2181727 Link 9 |
I can't see either starting at this stage , really can't see The Roc being ready for this level but maybe I'm completely wrong , can't see Connolly coming back he obviously doesn't want to or else he'd be back by now.

No you're wrong for the second time today Lilly langer, it was pat gilroy that was the manager of the startled earwigs .

Yeah can't see Connolly back either unless he is promised to start and that will never happen. ROC I'm less sure all depends on how he adapts, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see him guarding the square come summer, he won't be 100% the same player that left in 2015 but maybe he doesn't need to be.

Ha ha very good point, but I'm pretty sure the point of is to win be disliked and not be every other coutures second favorite team! ;)

Every counties second favourites team! Have you ever, I mean ever, met anyone from Galway, Roscommon or even Sligo? I'd say Belclare spilled his hot cocoa when he read that.

Well I dont assume to know everything about the Dubs unlike your good self. So I got their manager's name wrong big deal. Its still been 10 years since you beat them. Not wrong about that :)

Shows the state the dubs are in ..bringing in two former greats to paper over the cracks! mayotyroneman (Tyrone) - Posts: 1821 - 04/05/2019 08:20:19 2181780 Link 2 |
Yup....actual state of them. How very dare they strengthen their team ahead of a record breaking attempt of 5 in a row.
