Mayo v Galway league game thread will be spicy in March ;) yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11230 - 05/02/2019 13:52:02 2162750 Link
Replying To PoolSturgeon: "Well said! I always love to see Mayo/Roscommon do well when they are playing teams from other provinces. Don't relate to this toxic border rivalry at all....probably because I'm far enough away from it!" Totally with you there PS on the neighbours thing... the summer of 2002 stands out for me, when Sligo beat the great Tyrone team, winners of their third Sam the following year, They were then unlucky not to repeat the dose on Armagh who went on to win Sam , but who needed a replay to get past Sligo. All the joy, with none of the anxiety! That was a good year for football, with Armagh having to get the better of Kerry in the final, having beaten the Dubs (I think) in the semi-final. Great year for underdogs... will we ever see its like again? Pericles (Mayo) - Posts: 2521 - 05/02/2019 14:43:32 2162763 Link
Replying To Belclare1: "I know we are... wont argue.. and what's worse is its 2015 since ye bet us.. God help you when Kevin steps down next year and we start playing ball. Best of luck in the league, that was some win over Tyrone, I'd say you will win the league and Connacht and Sam as well. Unbelievable display away to the mighty Tyrone" This type of sarcastic message is pathetic really. Give your opinion lad and listen to others. Mayo great performance, good win. Gives the faithful optimism for the coming weeks. Galway in grand position too Kingofthehill100 (Mayo) - Posts: 68 - 05/02/2019 14:50:46 2162765 Link

Art McRory and Eugene McKenna were managers and they left after that defeat. Micky Harte came in 2003 and won all ireland 2003, 05, 08 I think you got you dates mixed up, something that I have done manys a time!!

Would imagine that there was the guts of a great team there or did MH change it entirely for the following season? greysoil (Monaghan) - Posts: 965 - 05/02/2019 15:22:54 2162778 Link

It was a league game in February, lads. Such games tend not to be the best indicator for the championship season. If we beat Cavan at home (not a given, considering we lost to them last time we played them in McHale Park, back in 2017) then Mayo should be safe and perhaps JH can experiment a bit more than has been possible in recent league campaigns.

Agreed on league game and its importance. However with regards to experimenting more I hope this is done in the way he is currently doing it. By playing 12 regular team members and 3/4 newbies. Anymore than this and it can sometimes be lambs to the slaughter. Is it too early to assume Hennely is Horans no1? Kingofthehill100 (Mayo) - Posts: 68 - 05/02/2019 17:24:08 2162801 Link

Thanks Fridge... totally... it was the first of the 3 and not the last! I think it was all of the vitriol flying around scrambled the marbles! I should maybe have re-read before posting... Still was a great year for the underdog and one we're not likely to see again given the gaps which have developed in the last decade. Pericles (Mayo) - Posts: 2521 - 05/02/2019 18:35:39 2162822 Link

A bit early I'd have thought, but the lads down there will take and manufacture any edge they can. Remember, there's an eclipse predicted which will darken Kerry more than any other corner of Ireland... an eclipse caused by a blue moon!

Donaghy is known to have no love for Mayo and he didn't even name Check Mayo 2 weeks ago when mentioning contenders for Sam. He is just a clueless punter like the rest of us who will flip and flop our opinions on teams as the weeks go on....no wonder sports journalism is declining. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11230 - 05/02/2019 22:39:42 2162871 Link

Replying To Belclare1: "Lol.. in fairness you can see Mayo are flying it.. peaking for March.." when this great Galway team has as many connaught titles in a row and won as many games in Croke park as mayo then you can talk so it will prob be a few years or never mayo_123 (Mayo) - Posts: 240 - 06/02/2019 23:49:49 2163115 Link
