If we are lucky Dublin by 10. Hopefully Andy trains them super hard before with the aim to peak for the qualifier match.

It's a bit like the Chinese elections. So many candidates but there's only ever going to be allowed to be one winner. The Association have ensured that.

It's been a few years since Meath were good enough to reach a final after regularly losing to opposition they would have fancied themselves of beating over the last number of years.

Meath had the easier side of the draw in 2019 and avoided a couple of potential banana skins. It's no doubt benefited their progression to the final.

They'll soon be playing a Dublin team who are well beyond anything they've played in years.

It's a massive test and they'll soon learn that.

Looking forward to it. There will be 40-50k at this one.

Congratulations to Meath

At the start of this decade we hammered this great Dublin team. Wouldnt it be just right that at end the decade we end it with another bang v Dublin. We have been biggest stone in Dublin football shoe for generations. Dublins worst nightmare if Meath become a successful strong county again because the one thing Dublin could never handle is strong Meath team.

Nearly 10 years ago at the start of this decade in June the hay was saved in Meath and the Dubs were beaten. On that Dublin team that played that day who were hammered by Meath were Stephen Cluxton , Phily McMahon, Michael Fitzsimmons, Michael Dara Macauley, Bernard Brogan, Alan Brogan, Diarmaid Connolly, Kevin McMemanin, Paul Flynn, Bryan Cullen, Eoghan O Gara , Ger Brennan , Rory O Carroll . Basically the great Dublin of this decade. Only 4 teams have beaten Dublin in this decade in championship they are Donegal Mayo Cork and Meath. Its in our dna it what defines us as a county. Beating Dublin. It whats we exist where put on this earth to do to beat them not just beat but to send them to the football wilderness for years. Its not a question of if we will beat Dublin, its a question of when. Is it in 2022 , or 2021 or 2020 or in two weeks time.

Rain bad awful day could help us. In 86 and 96 when we defeated Dublin they were bad conditions. While we are small pacey team so dry conditions suit us. But I will hoping fo rain lots of it. For bad wet conditions lead to a dogfight and Meath alwayd beat Dublin in a dogfight. Are we sud try what we did v Donegal in first half in Croker. Go for the juggler in first 20 mins. Goals early lead unsettle them . While McEntee doesnt want to be first Meath manager ever to not put it up to Dublin. Meaths last 5 managers who played Dublin in their first game really put it up to Dublin. McEntee will want to carry on that tradition. If we deliver performance we did v Tyrone Donegal first half v Armagh and second half v kildare. It will be very competitive game a tight affair and maybe even a Meath win. Especially 65 mins in Ballybofey v Donegal. That was 65 mins of quality top class intelligent Meath football.

If I think with my head I know a team that has won 1 game ever in Croker playing a team that has won 4 All-Irelands in Croker there is a gap. But I dont think with my head when it comes to Dublin. I think with passion and heart and never say die spirit. It doesn't matter how many titles Dublin has as a Meathman when the ball is thrown I will be expecting Meath to throw the kitchen sink and Dublin and for Meath to beat Dublin. Dublin have always had the resources money and population. We have always put it up to them.

No team has beaten Dublin more in the country .Meath have beaten Dublin 36 times in league and championship. In two weeks Meath will saviour their 37th victory over Dublin. Who will be Meaths Seamus Darby. Cud it be McMahon Sullivan Newman. I think it will be goal from James Conlon.

The papers on Monday 24th June will have these headline

23rd June The Day the Royals rocked Dublin and the whole the gaa to it very foundations.
Meath 2 - 14
Dublin 0 - 16
