Replying To yew_tree:  "How are Galway closer in reality? This debate is really sad actually….which teams comes closer without actually winning it. History only remembers winners."
If history only remembers winners, why do Mayo get so slagged off for losing finals?

Admin can we get confirmation of this? I'm against multiple users but there is a narrative out there that every WUM is now really from mayo….its coming from two counties in particular.

I have a soft spot for both Galway and mayo tbh and for me Galway built brilliantly underage in the end of the 2010s when mayo seniors where flying, but for me Galway are stagnating a wee bit still relying on Conroy and hoping for comer and Walsh to come in fit, Galway have some super players especially in the middle 8 and roles seem to be slightly reversed as Galway are ahead but mayo are building nicely at underage now, and mayo for all the naysayers are not a kick in the hotel away from any team on there day, I feel they need to play the younger players sooner and stop relying on the older heads, I fully expect it to be a Galway v mayo final in connaght and I look forward to it. If I'd to back a winner now, I'd edge slightly at mayo but no result would suprise me
