Suckvalley, comer and lundy should have both got the line that day in salthill. Trying to get mayo lads sent off by starting fights. In the end, class shown threw. Maigh Eo abu saddam (Mayo) - Posts: 414 - 06/08/2015 14:47:45 1765106 Link 0 |
It was a perfect summary of the worst game of football ever broadcast on TV and it was not Dublins fault. I don't think Donegals football has improved an awful lot since. They win ugly, that's their thing Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9155 - 06/08/2015 16:33:01 1765194 Link 0 |
Suckvalley - I'd rather play on the edge than get involved in the antics Lundy indulges himself in . He actually should be playing soccer , tried to pat Mc Hugh on the head . It was embarrassing . Also Galway's foul count on Mayo was shocking . TheRightStuff (Donegal) - Posts: 1688 - 06/08/2015 17:05:51 1765230 Link 0 |
Colm Parkinson definitely tipped Galway said he would be backing them in the bookies at 5/2. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2782 - 06/08/2015 18:34:52 1765307 Link 0 |
Dont really have a preference for who I would like to see win this one. Whichever team is more ready to take on the dubs in the semi final I hope wins. KY4SAM2015 (Kerry) - Posts: 898 - 06/08/2015 19:05:31 1765321 Link 0 |
apart from the Armagh game Donegal have looked a tired leggy outfit this year. I have a feeling that this could be 2013 re-visited. I expect Mayo to dish out a hammering to Donegal. Murphy DOES look injured as DOES McBrearty, even if Lacy is passed fit to play he will be alot less than 100%. The few bright sparks for Donegal have been Ryan McHugh and Frank McGlynn. Mayo have plenty of options at midfield with Tom Parsons, Seamy O'Shea, Barry Moran. up front they have a much improved Diarmuid O'Connor,AOS playing the football of his life,Kevin McLoughlin beavering away as usual the deadly accurate Cillian O' Connor andy moran and Jason Doherty. very impressed with Mark Ronaldson when he has come in and of course alan dillon waiting in the wings along with a few others. s goldrick (Cavan) - Posts: 5518 - 06/08/2015 21:05:47 1765383 Link 0 |
My honest sense of this game is that Mayo at this stage, are the team with more options and energy to carry the day. A word for Tom Parson's, who really looks like a man making up for lost time and ready to push his game onto another level. His energy and running in midfield gives Mayo a slightly different dimension this year, as well as allowing the luxurious option of playing Aidan O'Shea at full forward. Donegal are a battle hardened outfit but so is this Mayo team. However, Donegal have already fought a really hard and long campaign but they are not a young side full of freshness and they've taken serious hits along the way. Mayo to deliver the knockout blow but it won't be easy. JamesH (Mayo) - Posts: 465 - 06/08/2015 21:43:47 1765407 Link 0 |

Can't see Donegal lying down on this and expect a very close encounter. After all they are in a 1/4 final and really only one game away from where they wanted to be at the end of Summer i.e. in a semi-final. Albeit probably on the other side of the draw but that won't bother them for tomorrow. Why should it? They must believe that after that performance against Galway they have the fitness and squad to perform (and beat) Mayo. Plus they will be battle hardened after that ridiculously tough Ulster campaign. MaigheoAbu (Mayo) - Posts: 343 - 07/08/2015 08:45:45 1765433 Link 0 |

Best of luck to both all teams and fans tomorrow! can't pick a winner from either game. As it is a Mayo v Donegal thread, here is my useless 2 cents: AthCliath87 (Dublin) - Posts: 345 - 07/08/2015 09:34:39 1765461 Link 0 |

Things are never as they seem in sport. No logic to attach to my prediction, I just have a feeling Donegal will win it by 2. fire_in_belly (Donegal) - Posts: 59 - 07/08/2015 09:57:44 1765470 Link 0 |
I don't know if football doesn't follow logic fireinbellew, but it does produce some ironic moments. For instance, I could see mayo targeting donegal in the air at the back as opposed to the other way around, with maybe diarmuid O'Connor being matched onto ryan McHugh and aidan o'shea being a decoy to create some space for it. Similarly, I could see one of mayo's famed 'not up to it forwards' like Doherty or mcloughlin rattling in a goal coming from deep. Those types of things happen often, and in truth probably only shows that a lot of fans and pundits make assertions that are actually not very accurate.

My prediction is we are going to win it by 1 or 2 points,I like the way we finished the last 2 games despite coming up short against Monaghan,not the symptoms of a tired team as the media like to droll on about, TirChonaillabu2 (Donegal) - Posts: 344 - 07/08/2015 13:46:09 1765622 Link 0 |
