Plenty of yerra in Dublin. Ye are doing your level best to hype up Mayo and dampen it with Dublin! Since the Galway loss I have been expecting Mayo to lose. If they had lost any of our games I wouldn't have complained we were for the taking in every game. Dublin aren't unbeatable but is there a team that can beat them? Mayo have in the past and ran them close in the last few meetings but this year our form has been poor and our defence has been porous. Dublin will easily take advantage of it. For Mayo to win we need the players to all have massive performance and a perfect gameplan and then there's the record in the finals so why should anything change. Little short of a miracle! Two different type of pressure on the teams. I still live in hope but I won't be crushed if we don't win.

I would have to go with Mayo, seems quiter this time around with the Mayo 4 sam hype and green and red haystacks etc, so that should see less players on theplayers. I see the pressure more as built into the game, the fear of failure again will have to be psychologically managed throughout the game if they go a couple of points behind and in the different quaters of the game, whether ahead or behind.

Oh here we go lets blame the ref before the match grow up. Its funny every dublin supporter things its mayo under pressure, facts our yes mayo our through not winning it in years but dublin also for all this talk about teams not doing 2 in a row. This will be as close as the kerry game with result in the balance right to the end and to close to call. Yourjoking (USA) - Posts: 706 - 06/09/2016 13:50:05 1910703 Link 1 |

Very low expectations of Mayo at the moment, as evidenced by the lack of All-Ireland songs and general mayhem that usually accompanies the county side at this time of the season. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 06/09/2016 14:42:22 1910746 Link 0 |

Going by the last few finals, teams have been under a lot of pressure going into the game. It's been a long time since any team has taken the shackles off and really played in a final. The last few years teams have played very safe and over used a direct long ball into the forwards on final day. Whammo86 (Antrim) - Posts: 4241 - 06/09/2016 14:57:00 1910758 Link 1 |
A lot of mindreaders too. Maybe her indoors is posting? She always tells me she knows what I'm thinking.

Are you actually a Dub? Jesus, they'd wreck our heads on about their team of superheroes and fair play they're a class outfit. But I don't ever remember them discussing the ref before a game and the mentality that if they lose it'd down to the ref.

Except your 8th Final in a row!! Jaysus what a shitty record, most probably the worst in the history of the GAA jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20601 - 06/09/2016 17:19:51 1910862 Link 0 |
Another needless thread but I'll tell it like it is, there is more pressure on Mayo. A lot on Dublin to do back to back and for some of the older players to be part of a team that does that but all in all far more pressure on Mayo. Silly comment Jimbob, grow up.

I intended it to be a joke. Although reading it back I definitely fluffed it. Have a good one. Whammo86 (Antrim) - Posts: 4241 - 06/09/2016 18:27:00 1910903 Link 1 |
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me! Would she be likely to take offence at you wearing your Dubs jersey over your dress? If so, she's not worth having as a friend anyway!! :) Where's the wedding and does it clash with throw in time? MedwayIrish (Wexford) - Posts: 2324 - 06/09/2016 18:46:04 1910912 Link 0 |
