Game of the year?

It has been a very good championship this year, with alot of twists and turns.

What has been the best game of this year?

My vote would go to the Down Tyrone replay in June!

What championship where you watching it was a shit championship.

Kerry V Tyrone was prob the best game all year

Today was a contender, but Kerry-Galway for me.

Ditto.
Was at the game and got drowned but worth every bit of it.

Anyone that was at it would've realised that there hasn't been a game to touch the Down-Tyrone replay in the Marshes this year. I suspect the only reason its being overlooked by some here in favour of other games is because it wasn't on TV.

How was it a shit championship? I thought it was pretty good overall, there were a fair few decent games, plenty of comebacks and upsets - overall good.

I thought it was pretty good too. A couple of shite matches in the quarter-finals, but apart from that it was decent enough.

Most of the Ulster games were quite good this year, apart from maybe the final replay.

Kerry v Galway.

Poor Leinster and Connaught championship, poor Connaught final , Poor ulster replay . Half decent Munster final , nothing to report about the rest of the Chamionship. Some shocking performances Meath, Dublin ,Kildare ,Cavan spring to mind.

Shocking quarter finals Dublin springs to mind , Cork doing their best to lose to Kildare . Very few memorable games

Too much bullshit associated with Galvin, Moran and others .

Donegal v Derry, Wexford v Meath, Laois v Wicklow, Limerick v Cork (2 last minute goals, didn't see much of it though), Munster final, Connaught final, Ulster final, Galway v Leitrim, Down v Tyrone x2, Derry v Monaghan, Donegal v Monaghan, Kerry v Monaghan, Galway v Kerry, Armagh v Wexford, Tyrone v Dublin, Wexford v Tyrone and Cork v Kerry x2 - all finished off by our best final since 2005

Connacht final was a good game of football. Not a great first half but the second half was very good. Score for score.

wasn't a great year lads, you're clutching at straws. very good game today but the game of the year was kerry v galway in a near monsoon.

bogball - donegal v derry was average at best, laois and wicklow was like watching 2 bad club teams, armagh and wexford was poor , i could go on but i won't. a pretty average year all round. even todays final good as it was wasn't a patch on 2005.

Donagh · September 21, 2008, 11:50:29 PM

Waterford and Tipp followed by Tyrone and Down.

I enjoyed Laois v Wicklow and Armagh v Wexford - the quality may not have been great, but there's more to a game than that. I agree the final wasn't as high quality as 05 and there were a lot of mistakes, but it was a good hard, tight game of football between the two best sides in the country and we needed a decent final after the last 2.
