Who do Kerry/Dub fans want to win Mayo/Tipp?

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Tipp for me, desire to be where they are and why not go one better and get to the final.

Mayo have had a load of chances to claim the title. If they couldn't do it in 2013 playing against effectively 13 Dubs in the final ten minutes I'd be skeptical they ever will.

Mayo because I wouldn't take any great pleasure in beating Tipp in the final. Tipp because if Kerry beat us I think Mayo could beat them. Tipp play nice open football and looked accomplished the last day, and could cause Mayo problems if they're not at full whack, and they haven't hit anywhere near that level as yet.
But to play them in a final, I would be very nervous, every dog has it's day in the sun.

Replying To liner:  "sure dubs have it won already, no need to play semi or final at all, only a formality. (Keep on posting like this lads, please.)"
Oh shut up with your tired clichés!

Nothing wrong with what I said

Its not that I claimed they'd do it - but those looking for problems will always find them.

Just giving an accurate summing up if they were to do it

"Keep posting like this"

As if it matters a damn anyway, but considering I wasn't even posting in any such fashion anyway... sums up your level of intellect!

Go climb back under that rock you've been all year liner ya bandwagoner! haha

Replying To KYTitletown:  "Don't ever apologise or run away from the truth waynoI

As frustrating as it is to be so far off the 'Big 3' at the moment, I rather seeing posters tell it as it is as opposing to patronising us while not believing a word they are saying themselves.

Telling the truth isn't arrogant and shouldn't be perceived as that, no need to 'change' your opinion just to appease others"
I agree.

But I don't see how i'm coming across as arrogant.

I am not saying we will win back to backs.

I only asked a question to Dublin AND Kerry fans, Who would they like to meet IF they got there.

I outlined that if we where to win, I'd want Mayo as I don't think a potential final against Tipp would really grip me. Only being honest.

a D1 team playing a D3 team, In an all Ireland final ?

This Dublin team would beat Tipperary, At least going into a final against Mayo, Youd be a little more nervous. And if you take that as arrogance flops then fine, But you cannot tell me that you don't believe for one second that Tipp would beat us. They wouldn't.

And again, All hypothetical as Kerry could very well beat us, But if we do win, Itd be nice to play our 3 biggest rivals in the last 3 or 4 years on our way to possibly retaining it.

Replying To Mfs:  "Post is totally disrespectful to Tipperary. They were unlucky that their best player was sick the day of Kerry match and didnt play well. They beat the Connacht champions and Cork who played in Division 1 this year along the way. They are where they are on merit and deserve respect."
I don't think it is being disrespectful at all ..

I think its being realistic.

don't confuse the two. I stated why I personally would want Mayo.

Its nothing personal against Tipp or their fans, they have been a breath of fresh air in the championship so far, But if they play Dublin, or Kerry they will get smashed.

Replying To liner:  "be careful what u wish for."
IF DUBLIN BEAT KERRY Liner, I would rather play Mayo in a close fought contest with the game in the balance in the last few minutes, than absolutely destroy Tipperary without needing to get out of second gear, It'd be like a Leinster game. Maybe Mayo would end their hoodoo and beat us, But I wouldn't want to know the end result of an all Ireland final before the game has begun, And that's what will happen if Tipp get to the final because ultimately Dublin OR Kerry wouldn't be beaten by Tipp. They just aren't streetwise enough. I don't feel I'm being disrespectful with any of these comments either, just honest.

Replying To Floops:  "Wow now that's arrogance right there. "From a dubs fans point of view"? Speak for yourself my friend."
Here chap, If you're going to quote me, will you use the right quote to back up your point.

Read that very line you are trying to quote again, Almost certain I said "from THIS Dublin fans point of view) .... Meaning ME.

As for arrogance, Give over.

I didn't say we would beat Kerry.

But if we do, I want Mayo for the reasons which I already outlined in my OP and other posts/replies since.

Tipperary have produced the wonderful moments of the championship, they had a great year, But whoever gets to the final from the Dublin v Kerry game, will destroy Tipperary in a potential final and I would rather beat one of our so called bigger rivals.

All hypothetical. But that was the point in the thread.

If Mayo win the All Ireland in 2016 and it could easily happen, you'll only confirm what we already know. You haven't a clue about the game.

Ouch!

Still raw over that final so?

Who is this 'we' anyway? Perhaps you mean 'you'?

Can you explain what is so wrong with my observation about the 2013 final?

Actually don't bother, given the crap I've seen you post about Kerry down the years I'm delighted your still so bitter.

Just for you ;D
