''AI Winners weren't playing Today''

(Oldest Posts First)

All I heard after the games in Dublin yesterday was the above statement from people from all parts of the country including a lot from the natives.

Now I can't speak for Mayo and Roscommon fans as I'm sure they are solely occupied on the replay before tearing into us but as a Kerry supporter I am delighted

I love the fact we are firmly under the radar and that the real AI Final will be between Dublin and Tyrone and the rest of us are only wasting our time, suits our humble nature down to the ground

If people think that yesterdays performance was the best we can do then who I am to argue...

Yesterdays game was very similar to the 2014 game and I remember hearing the same thing that day and we all know what happened after.......

A poor attempt Galantis, I think you could be thrown out of the "Cute kerry Hoor" club after that.

Don't shoot the messenger lads , I'm only giving the view of Kerry people and neutral people in the pubs after the game

And a quick perusal of places like here and the print and television media that view is broadly held.

Kerry give up NINE GOALS chances in the last 2 games- they are useless has been mentioned by many

I think you'll find that you are slightly delusional if you believe that Kerry are under the radar.
You honestly think Mickey Harte or Jim Gavin or any of the other managers you might encounter are unaware of a team who end up regularly in finals and have won the league.
As for those on here or the man in the street, well , you keep asking them their opinion if it makes you feel better about Kerry's chances.
If Kerry win the AI it won't be because they have magically managed to deceive the footballing world believe you me.

Firmly under the radar? So why is the best price for Kerry to win Sam 2/1 with the bookies, while Tyrone are 11/2?

Paul Curran said we are 'beatable' while a current DUBLIN DOCTOR said Galway would beat Kerry no question

Which puts Jim Gavin's and indeed certain lads on here patronising rhetoric into perspective

"I love the fact we are firmly under the radar ......"

Worst attempt I've seen on here in many a year. Truly appalling.

Whatever attempt at playing down our chances failed miserably there when you linked an article where Kerry's relative consistency and ability to win over the past few years is pointed out.

Paul Curran is right too, Kerry are beatable along with the other remaining teams.
Must try harder, Young lad.

Only against teams who Brolly perceives as average Fatima not against 'real teams' such as Dublin, Mayo , Tyrone

Dave Hickey, the Dublin doctor and Hill 16 icon, predicted a few years ago that this Dublin team would win five in a row. He texted me last week to say "Galway will beat Kerry and Dublin will continue the journey to 5 in a row."

Find me a quote from a Kerry player or member of management / backroom staff (can be any Kerry team not limited to this one) that was so dismissive of any opponent let alone one who the Dublin fans pretend are a threat and great

Any time I see this pretending nonsense happening from now on I will quote what their team doctor said every single time

What Kerry (or other pundit for that matter) said Dublin are beatable any time recently???

Certainly not Spillane 'Dublin 2nd best team of all time'' or Marc O Se 'Dublin way ahead of pack''

How did he only say they are consistent against 'average' teams when he goes to great lengths to state that, under Fitzmaurice, only Dublin have beaten Kerry in championship? That includes Mayo and Tyrone, your supposed 'proper' teams.

I think us Monaghan supporters ( & maybe Armagh too), should petition our Co. board to concede the game to Dublin next Sat & save the time & expense of going to CP!.... Dublin & Tyrone seem to be in the Semi's already!
