He did the radio analysis yesterday with McStay.

I was happy, on balance, with the decision to play the semi-final in Limerick and thought it would be a great occasion, which it turned out to be, as far as can be judged from T.V. But, even with that attitude, I have to wonder what's going on with the RTÉ/GAA setup. From the start of coverage yesterday, Lyster was going out of his way to repeat and repeat how great the setup was in Limerick and imply that all the hubbub about the venue was misinformed. Then we got Mouthy Morrissey cackling on continuously throughout the commentary about the same. You have to wonder about these two and what motivation/incentive they have to talk up every official GAA decision/position.

There will be this that and the other said about the venue. Yesterdays game felt like a back door game, even a league game. It demeaned this All Ireland semi final. There was a feck up with seats sold that did not exist and these fans ended up sitting with panel members from both teams. The stuff at the end with fans coming on added to the discomfort of a big game in a minor venue. Not good enough. Was a long journey back last night through sh1te roads. Second class citizens.

When you win these things don't matter but it's always a long journey home when you lose.

Only 40 mins from CP to Kildare never feels long...

Des Cahill is going to go into Joe Duffy overdrive tonight over the last few mins in yesterdays game.

That is the big question over tonight's programme for me. If they are consistent they will highlight the initial brawl, the manhandling of a Mayo back room team member and the pitch incursion by a Mayo supporter as well as an attack on an Garda Siochana after the final whistle by another yob. I don't wish to see any suspensions handed out to players for the final but it was a similar incident to the Armagh v Cavan brawl which received days of headlines following the scrutiny and criticism received on the TV. I predict that they will skirt over the initial brawl and instead concentrate on the pitch incursion by a supporter.
