Jaysus... that'd give even a Kerry fellah a headache.

Good luck to Tipp. No disrespect to Mayo. Hope it's a cracking game!

I'm very proud of my boys one of the least supported football teams in the country for obvious reasons.
Don't think a bandwagon will travel to Croker either so don't expect too much blue and gold .
Unless mentioning replays I'd love to see our hurlers draw on Sunday and the replay be part of a double header Sunday 21st!!
Tipp v The Whest wudnt that be a great double header!!

If it was an all-Ireland final I'd be confident but Mayo are at their most lethal best in semi finals.

Tipp will give Mayo enough of it but I think Mayo will win by 4 or 5 in the end.

Upper tier tickets went on sale in the past 24 hours for this game. Look's like there will be a huge Mayo support there on the day. Are many hurling fans rowing in behind Tipp? I assume some "neutrals" will come along to shout for them.

I hope there is but it's hard to say. It doesn't help that the hurlers are playing this week sky that could deter people from travelling up two weeks in a row.

In the Supporters club email they sent out information about buying tickets for the hurling first and then casually mentioned that you can buy a semi finals ticket package for 60 quid as opposed to 45 + 45 to buy tickets individually for the two matches. That's not very helpful, I would have thought they would have promoted the semi finals package first being good Gaels and all.

Coldrick is the referee which is terrible news from a Tipperary perspective considering how he managed Armagh vs Tipp last year in the league.

Coldrick is a disaster. Tipperary won't have a chance.

The only positive is that he is unlikely to ref the All-Ireland.

Yeah if I was from Mayo I'd be delighted too.

Pay no heed, that's the lad who said it's the highlight of his year when Mayo get beaten. Reading between the lines she was from over around Westport or that area!

Time to bump this thread back to the top. Tipperary v Mayo is this weekend's semi-final. Tipperary are there on merit. Mayo are back in another semi-final. 3 years since they last appeared in a final.

Mayo -5 at even money has to be the banker of the weekend surely

just remember that Galway beat Mayo pretty easy this year and then Tipperary destroyed Galway , so if you put two and two together you get an easy win for Tipp.

don't think so.
If Mayo win they will grind it out as they have done so all season.
Nothings a given.
