Replying To Cbar: "I don't see Mayo folk moving on from this anytime soon.... and as the Ross man said, imagine living next door.
I think 5 books and a play have been written so far. I am just waiting for the county board to get Mel Gibson to come in and make a film about it." A common attitude was ya wouldn't mind seeing them win but you'd be afraid you'd never hear the end of it....and how correct that fear was, we literally have not heard to the end of it, I don't know where the end of it is but I'd say we're not even half way to the middle of it :D

Replying To Viking66: "Not neccessarily. Maybe there are more punters in Galway?!" You'd do well to find any punters from Galway who think we're second favourites for Sam next year. As someone mentioned above, we're in a pack with a batch of other teams. Although, Mayo were also in that pack earlier this year.

Replying To Beolive92: "scotstown are the obvious favourites for the championship but who could be potential banana skins. Could edendork get over the line this weekend after their celebrations and get to a quarter final? How good are this magherafelt side, they have lots of star quality there. Always a good championship and hopefully lots of entertaining games." Crossmaglen are back, though obviously not the team of old. Clonduff were in good form all year, unbeaten in Championship. St Eunans likewise. The Square Bar is no doubt still packed tonight!!!!
Still hard to see past Scotstown.

Replying To BigSur: "Hope ye were all out yesterday doing the club 5k for the county footballers holiday.
81k raised so far.
Interesting to see the gaffer McHugh has brought in a whopping 15k so fair play.
Some players have faired better than others - it's all very public but maybe that's a good thing.
I believe the destination is Florida for a week departing early November.
What a year they gave us so fair play to them." The manager obviously has wealthy contacts, fair play to him. What exactly is achieved by publicly disclosing how much each individual player or mentor has raised? One person might raise €15,000 through business connections, while another might struggle to raise €1,000 despite putting in considerable effort. Publishing those individual numbers invites unnecessary comparisons and potentially embarrasses players. Surely the collective amount raised is what matters rather than turning fundraising into a public league table. Again, it's a poor reflection on the County Board when players who have given so much of their time, effort and commitment to representing their County are left to fundraise for their own team holiday. After all they have achieved this year, surely they deserve some recognition and appreciation without having to go looking for financial support themselves. The Kerry team headed off to Florida this morning on their team holiday, I very much doubt they were out running the roads trying to raise money for it. And don't even get me started on the Centre of Excellence, that's another conversation entirely. We talk about developing football in Westmeath and competing with the best counties in the country, yet we are still asking questions about the facilities and long term investment needed to make that happen. The players are doing their bit on the field, but where is the same level of commitment off it?
