Weather for Saturday nights game looks very bleak with rain and a severe breeze. This will probably make the game a great leveler in my opinion. Could 'Mother Nature' stop the mighty Dubs lol. Looking forward to the game as it will be a cracker with capacity crowd and big physical hits between 2 heaveyweights. It will be a very close game.

Replying To GreenandRed: "I have a tickets.ie account and could have bought up to 8 tickets. How the f#×* is that not printing money for touts and their shady owners?" That is absolutely shocking, the touts will have a field day. I assume the die hard fans will get tickets from their clubs, or at least I hope so.

We want a dry day. Weather can change from day to day so I'll hope the sun is beaming come Saturday clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 06/08/2019 12:16:22 2221542 Link
Replying To Green_Gold: "That is absolutely shocking, the touts will have a field day. I assume the die hard fans will get tickets from their clubs, or at least I hope so." Our club tweeted at the weekend that they would not be getting tickets. Not sure if that was just a decision by the club or whether the limited time made it impossible to organise. Heard people were queuing outside supavalu Claremorris from 7.30. Could that be correct? ponga (Mayo) - Posts: 666 - 06/08/2019 12:59:25 2221569 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "We want a dry day. Weather can change from day to day so I'll hope the sun is beaming come Saturday" It's now showing that there may not be any rain on Saturday. We might miss the rain. Rain will suit Mayo down to the ground. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 2090 - 06/08/2019 13:00:04 2221570 Link

I seem to recall us beating the mighty Kerry in 2015 final on a dirty wet day. fingalman (Dublin) - Posts: 233 - 06/08/2019 13:14:28 2221578 Link

Season ticket holders had the option of buying up to four extra tickets yesterday, that facility was sold out by 7:00pm yesterday evening. I got a few for some pals traveling up from Mayo and staying with us, make a weekend out of it. Wouldn't at all be surprised to see a draw here, id say the GAA are hoping likewise, the p;ace will be packed to the rafters. Who said football was dead! ;) TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4541 - 06/08/2019 13:28:27 2221587 Link

The rain made no difference in 2015. Weather wise the worst All-Ireland I can remember avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 2090 - 06/08/2019 14:04:04 2221599 Link
honestly looking at the chances both donegal and mayo coughed up at the weekend and that were missed by both sides, this Dublin team would have made hay, and for that reason I can see only winner this weekend and think it will be a comfortable Dublin win on their way to 5 in a row. totalrecall (Leitrim) - Posts: 1258 - 06/08/2019 14:12:16 2221605 Link

Not easy making hay when it's pissing rain!! rain will suit the whesties alright but Dubs will wallop them. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 3826 - 06/08/2019 14:27:55 2221612 Link
Replying To waynoI: "Literally. It will make their diving much easier :D" The Croker surface is totally different to any other pitch in the country. As Dublin play all their home and neutral games there they will be well used to any conditions. Mayo on the other hand rarely play in Croker on wet days. As to your silly diving slur, best to put it down as a schoolboy jibe. ponga (Mayo) - Posts: 666 - 06/08/2019 14:42:53 2221622 Link
Replying To avonali: "The rain made no difference in 2015. Weather wise the worst All-Ireland I can remember" Wrong the weather played a huge part. That scoreline flattered Kerry who were second best for the whole day. Had that been a dry day it would have been a lot more than a 3 point win for Dublin. westkerry (Kerry) - Posts: 1250 - 06/08/2019 14:44:25 2221625 Link

I think both teams were adversely affected by the weather but ...it's a matter of conjecture as to who was worse affected. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 2090 - 06/08/2019 15:01:20 2221633 Link
Replying To waynoI: "Literally. It will make their diving much easier :D" It'll definitely suit Aidan o Shea, it looked like he was hit by a sniper after donegal scored the penalty. Diving ######. rorysboys (Donegal) - Posts: 2699 - 06/08/2019 15:02:29 2221636 Link
Looks like this will be a sell-out, no tickets no longer available online. Gaelic football is alive and well. football first (None) - Posts: 1259 - 06/08/2019 15:12:19 2221643 Link
Replying To Mfs: "Only hill 16 tickets available online and in Centra for Saturday. Expect Hill 16 to be 50/50 saturday." More importantly where is the best place to buy a straw hat for the match? Asking for a friend... Bon (Kildare) - Posts: 2687 - 06/08/2019 15:22:57 2221655 Link
Replying To rorysboys: "It'll definitely suit Aidan o Shea, it looked like he was hit by a sniper after donegal scored the penalty. Diving ######." There there, don't bottle it up you'll feel better......Mind you young Murphy is learning from the master, his theatrical dive for the penalty was reminiscent of big Aido at his best.

Replying To waynoI: "Literally. It will make their diving much easier :D" Time to wheel out the usual suspects. Too late for Ciaran on the Sunday game and Alan on the Indo. Maybe you could get young Charlie to give a quote or two to the tabloids. Mayo a bunch of divers headline would surely sell a paper or two in Dublin. And if it happened to influence the ref at the same time then it's a win, win situation. Not that the Dubs would try anything like that of course.....
