Replying To The_Fridge: "Heard the GAA said maybe 50,000. Kerry generally don't travel so it could be tight getting that." The upper decks aren't currently open so looks to be less than 50,000. 30-40,000 probably more realistic at this stage. Would be disappointing for a game of this magnitude and one that could well be highly entertaining. A Another (None) - Posts: 192 - 09/08/2019 16:13:53 2223103 Link
Replying To avonali: "I can distinctly remember a certain Kerry forward -now retired but working as a Sky pundit - going up to Philly MacMahon at half time in the 2016 Semi-Final as the teams were going off the pitch. Kerry had just scored two goals and were flying. He had his hand on Philly's shoulder and was whispering sweet nothings into his ear. I remember looking on with great satisfaction as he lay prone on the pitch after the final whistle. A certain Roy Keane line entered my head just then." Maybe he was just thanking Philly for the lovely eye gauge a year previous. . cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5010 - 09/08/2019 16:16:41 2223106 Link
Replying To Wally: "This is the same KD who was red carded for punching Aiden O'Shea in the face a couple of years ago?" Hmmm...had forgotten that....but the pair of them were at each other for the whole match. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 09/08/2019 16:19:05 2223108 Link

GAA haven't exactly assisted a big crowd by the 1 week turn around and then the queues for tickets. On another point see Hoganstand predicting Tyrone which makes for a lot of pundits. Yet the bookies still predict Kerry. Looks like these pundits aren't putting on big bets. tyroneed (Tyrone) - Posts: 753 - 09/08/2019 18:08:59 2223144 Link

My Kerry friends, you have little need to worry about the big bad boys from Tyrone. The last time we met you in a semi-final, you had someone looking out for you...

Replying To reithi: "Anyway back to the game in hand which I suspect with the weather predicted won't be a great spectacle probably a scrappy one. Will be a great watch all the same for the intriguing battle it is. I can't wait though already a bit nervous. No surprise to see Clifford back in I like the look of the team named but at this stage you can never believe it till its on the field! Any news on Tyrone line up" Weather forecast for the Sunday is now pretty good..worst of the weather forecast for this evening. Think dry day is vital for Kerry...if it turns into a battle with lots of turnovers you'd have to fancy a physically stronger Tyrone. blacknamber (Kerry) - Posts: 267 - 10/08/2019 10:31:12 2223298 Link

A lot of talk about Tyrone on here but I haven't seen anything in the last few years to say this Tyrone team are dirty or cynical, our game is a contact sport and ya you'll have the odd tackle that'll be a bit over aggressive by all teams that can happen but let us all just enjoy the 3 games that or left in the championship season and we'll have plenty of time to dissect them over the winter months. Safe travels to all. Themall1916 (Kerry) - Posts: 98 - 10/08/2019 10:38:21 2223300 Link

Tomorrow's game will be no dirtier or physical then today's. I do think if we can get our forwards on the end of enough smart balls we will win. reithi (Kerry) - Posts: 52 - 10/08/2019 11:25:27 2223315 Link

That's great news as we're very far down near the sideline so we'd be soaked. Roll on tomorrow. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 10/08/2019 11:32:14 2223319 Link
Replying To rorysboys: "Lost respect for Mickey Harte a long time ago. Supported Tyrone in all there all Ireland wins but them days are gone now. And may I saw I'm not the only one in donegal." Is that because you don't agree with being pioneer or you dislike his never say die attitude as a manager and ability to overcome the most unimaginable suffering and loss someone could go through and still get up in the morning nevermind continue to manage a county team in face of cruel comments from media. If you get over the fact your county is out for this year and will come back stronger next year, maybe you'll get in behind your ulster counterparts and wish the best of them, their fans and families. You let yourself down with that comment but im sure your better than that. RedHand_Pastyface (Tyrone) - Posts: 16 - 10/08/2019 11:49:29 2223324 Link

Good luck I was down near the sideline for the final in 15 even with my plastic poncho purchased on the way in I was drowned!! reithi (Kerry) - Posts: 52 - 10/08/2019 12:36:46 2223339 Link
Think tomorrow has all the makings of a classic, two well matched teams both with good options from the bench. I think if Kerrys forwards get into a groove though they will be hard stopped. On todays showing I would fear this might be the last truly competitive game we see this year though. bigboon (Tyrone) - Posts: 50 - 10/08/2019 20:53:15 2223635 Link
Replying To reithi: "Good luck I was down near the sideline for the final in 15 even with my plastic poncho purchased on the way in I was drowned!!" I was down there that day too I remember it started raining with about 15 mins to go in the minor game and it pied till we got back to the Jeep I had a couple of programs for the ould uncles and they were ruined.

If this is a draw does it go to extra time or a replay? Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 2739 - 10/08/2019 21:45:35 2223677 Link
Replying To Tirchonaill1: "If this is a draw does it go to extra time or a replay?" Extra time i believe. KY4SAM2015 (Kerry) - Posts: 898 - 10/08/2019 21:55:41 2223684 Link
Replying To KY4SAM2015: "Extra time i believe." The best thing that could happen Tyrone and Kerry tomorrow would be for the game to be a draw and for it go to a replay, it would really sharpen the winner and still leave a 2 week break to the final, it would keep minds and bodies sharp. gallarus14 (Kerry) - Posts: 127 - 10/08/2019 23:33:17 2223738 Link
