All Ireland Quarter Final;Roscommon v Mayo Sunday July 30th

[Syferus]

I thought the Roscommon GAA statement on the booing was ill-advised. If I were them I would have ignored it, while in my heart I would have thought "our boys will boo whomever they f**king like, actually." This Nice-Guy-Eddie schtick only gets you so far.

Damned if I can figure out what'll happen the next day. I believe McStay said his pet cat could have predicted Mayo's team on Sunday. It must be some cat when it saw Parsons dropped for either Paddy Durcan or Jason Doherty.

The booing thing was not just Andy. Where I was, Mayo were booed coming out at the start and after half time - let them belt away would be my attitude. Didn't bother me. Maybe Roscommon GAA are the only ones that maybe should be concerned about it. Why bother though. Galway, Sligo and others have done the same to us in the past when they thought they were going to screw us, when we were in decline.
Parsons wasn't dropped and Durcan and Doherty are two of our most important players. Both had very good games and are in decent form.

Neither was Donie Smith the only free-taker Mayo supporters booed. It's sad to see the Tyrone what-aboutry infecting Connacht men.

Can someone please lock Syf away from the laptop and take his phone from him. 13 or 14 posts on this thread alone in the past 24 hours is not right. Or go and have sex, you can dream about this thread if she doesn't do it for you. Good man, for our sanity and yours.

Was disappointed at Roscommon's lack of balls when a good few up in the first half. Reminded me of Tyrone in 2002.

Hopefully we'll be like Tyrone 2003 next year

as for Willie Joe changing his mind  that pretty par for the course . hes not the most coherent of commentators and like a few maore seems to be trying to use mayo's success as a booster for some sort of a media carrer . not worth paying attention to

That's out of order ros. Anyone who knows the man knows he is a gent and he is a committed / obsessed supporter. He has no other agenda and for you to state that he has is way out of order.

Ros forwards were like statues for most of the game

hard to make runs when your constantly being pulled and dragged
they were turning around appealing to the umpires all during the first half

Syphilis, with your constant irritating and irascible references to ourselves, you really are like a bad dose of the clap. Do carry on.

Is Ed still involved with the Dublin Hurlers?

I blame the GPS bras for a lot of the bullshit that is going on these days. That's what got Barrett hauled off against Cork and I noted that he made far less runs forward the last day, is it on the players minds that someone with a laptop will be hauling me in if i keep running like f**k?

I'd say the same applies to Boyler, the computer hauls him off.

Shur the excuse for Hennelly last year was some tactical bollicksology.

You've really let the mask slip now.

It's the most read story on RTE.ie today, and check the tone of the comments on that article. McStay totally changed the tone of the narrative with a statement that probably took five minutes to write. Not the first time he's out-thought Mayo this week.

Most read story on rte.Ie  today?,  Not on my phone anyway it wasn't. Kevin is a gent without a doubt but
When I checked  a while ago there was ne'er a mention of him or his statement.

Taken five minutes ago:



Your eyesight must be starting to fail, Lar.

Touché, Syf. I got that wrong. That's what using a smartphone, on an intercity coach, on a bumpy road and with no sleep for over 20 hours does to me. Keep up the good fight, btw; you're compulsive reading.

[Lar Naparka]

Keegan is one of the top players of the last 5 years. Who would be the last few Mayo players of similar calibre?  Other than McDonald.

Kenny Mortimer & James Nallen

Two top notch players without doubt. I'd also add Noel Connelly from the same era.

Keep us out of your bitch-fest you are having out West.

We have enough problems with all the nonsense talked about how good Armagh are on the other thread.

Like them you can look back at a good enough season come Monday evening
