Throw ball


J70

Why were the crowd jeering Donegal when they held the ball that time during the first half? Galway were the team 4 points down at the time with 15 men behind the ball.

All that hand-passing laterally and backwards gets that reaction from crowds. I know our lads will get it from our own supporters (nevermind the opposition) when it lasts half as long as that passage did.

Not bad considering, Tyrone and Donegal people would have been having an eye on next week. Sligo fans would have been shot after the Connacht final. Still think it should have been in Castlebar and Enniskillen!

is Leo mc loone just back in the Donegal set up from a self enforced exile? He is a class act on his day and will be a sub that we need to counter next week.

Why is there only a weeks break for Donegal? The fixture set up is bizarre. Could the QF not be played the following week?

Kildare, Fermanagh and Tyrone all play a week after winning in Round 4.

25,000 from so called big counties like Tyrone,Donegal and Galway is a disgrace,for a Championship game.Hiw many band wagon jumpers from each of the above counties will be moaning about All Ireland Final tickets should their county reach that stage?

Can't see too many joining the Galway bandwagon now tbh

T Fearon

Yes but had they won their way through to the AI Final there would have been plenty.They would have been looking for at least 25,000 tickets alone,as will any of the others who make it that far will.

Hopefully they get their dates right.

The disgrace was dragging 25000 people from donegal,Tyrone,Galway and Sligo to croke park in the 1st place.

You said it, so much for the Gaa being of the people. No consideration for the time and expense put on Tyrone and Donegal supporters on consecutive weekends. Plus the swing of business to local economies in Enniskillen and Castlebar. I suppose their hands are tied with the Sky contract and have to drag both games into headquarters.
