Good to see that even after a bad year, in which the county set-up has seemingly gone into terminal decline, that Galway posters are still obsessed with us. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 12/02/2019 15:06:51 2164890 Link 0 |

Counties from the west of Ireland have always benefited from ex pats around the world and huge sums of money have been raised over a number of years. This is never mentioned when people from these counties complain about the finances being the factor behind Dublin's success. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 12/02/2019 15:27:13 2164894 Link 0 |
Thinking about this, I'm actually starting to think that Galway missed a trick here. Had they organised a similar event last year with our hurlers (All-Ireland champions at the time), it could have gone a long way to clearing the embarrassing debt on Mountain South. streaker (Galway) - Posts: 497 - 12/02/2019 15:36:59 2164898 Link 0 |
What kinda clients have that money for very saucy spaghetti? Only high rollers go to that gaff, we have Macs. I wish Mayo the best with this and hope they raise a bundle. suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1667 - 12/02/2019 16:19:45 2164907 Link 0 |
The farce of the whole thing is when they were here the last time hey had no time for the supporters, that was the managements decision not the players. Weren't even allowed to go out and have a chat with the crowd. Now if you can afford to pay 2,500 the management will let the players sit and eat with the supporters. I guess NY are gone back a good bit. By the way I'am from Kilkenny my lovely wife is from Mayo she and my 2 boys were greatly disappointed the last time Mayo were here.

There is a function in Mayo owned Rosie O Grady's on 7th Ave on the night before the game where members of the team and management will be present. However and this happened last time, if your kids really want to meet the team the best time is after the game at Gaelic Park or in whichever bar the team decide to congregate in after...last time it was another Mayo owned bar called the Oldcastle on 54th street. I think lessons have been learnt from the last time. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11227 - 12/02/2019 19:21:51 2164954 Link 3 |

Personally, regardless of which county was playing, if I was in New York at that time of year there are a 100 other things I would do instead of watching a meaningless game. Go and visit all the amazing attractions and museums and watch inevitable Mayo win in your leisure on the highlights when you get home.

It's not only about the game but the social aspect of meeting your fellow county ex pats and Irish people. The drinking session ain't bad either.

Seeing ye Mayo and Galway supporters locking horns and having a bit of the old "banter " makes me miss the craic us Kerry fans used to have with our Cork buddies before they went kapoot now we have no one to have a bit of craic with :-( KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 13/02/2019 18:22:16 2165186 Link 0 |

The rivalry has increased in recent years after been dormant for a number of years. Be great to see Galway play Mayo in Croker, could well happen this summer. JDF (Galway) - Posts: 322 - 14/02/2019 12:43:06 2165299 Link 0 |
Ya you would miss the old rivalry and I never thought I would when they were thumping us back in the late 80s to mid 90s. And Galway v Mayo in crokepark now that would be a tasty affair. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 14/02/2019 14:27:46 2165332 Link 0 |
Mayo v Galway in a championship game in Croker has never happened...must be the last big rivilarg left not to have happened? We have met in a league final and league semi I think but no championship yet.... yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11227 - 14/02/2019 15:01:54 2165341 Link 2 |
