Time for a GAA quiz

Hardy · May 09, 2008, 12:10:49 PM

Since the sap is rising and to offer a token response to the soccer quizzes and all sorts going on over on the General Disruption board, I think it's time we had another GAA quiz thread. (Please post the question with your answer, otherwise it'll get all mixed up).

These are all fairly handy ones about All-Ireland Senior Football Finals:

1.   Which county has lost the most AIFs?
2.   Name all counties with a 100% record in AIFs.
3.   Name all counties with a 0% record in AIFs (not counting those who've never appeared).
4.   How many AIF's have been drawn?
5.   Which county has waited the longest since its last All-Ireland win?
6.   What's the highest winning score in an AIF?
7.   What's the highest losing score in an AIF?
8.   What's the highest number of goals scored in an AIF?

Not Kildare (I presume that's an answer to no. 5)

Also highest score as well Bensars as well as the 4-15 Kerry scored in 2006.

Screenexile - correct on no. 2. Down, Limerick, Donegal
Bensars - highest winning score - no
- highest number of goals - yes, shared with another year
Screenexile - correct on no. 6 - highest winning score shared by Dublin 1997 and Kerry 2006

1948 Cavan 4-5; Mayo 4-4

5. Which county has waited the longest since its last All-Ireland win?

Limerick 1896

1. Which county has lost the most AIFs?

I would guess Kerry purely on the basis that they have contested the most finals ( and only had to play 2 games to get to the AIF for the first 115 odd years
