Yup, the NFL is the target, Peter McKenna more or less admitted that, but London will be hard to dislodge now. He also mentioned that. The NFL probably won't want a two city European element. I think they will stay with London.

Think they'll have trouble filling Wembley for a third game, the NFL will hopefully start looking to other places. When you put on that many games in quick succession the novelty factor greatly reduces and the big traveling hordes (from Ireland, the continent) will likely decrease.

Germany and Ireland would be the front-runners in the race to host one of those games.

Ireland will currently not get an NFL game, germany are the front runners................................the reps from the NFL were less than impressed with Croke Park

If they quickly promise to ban the rest of the natives, turn Drumcondra into a car park and re-name the whole thing The Dollar Bowl, the day might be saved.

Could always use McHale Park - isn't there a big car park there? I think the Mayo players used to push cars around it.

He was probably just taking the piss out of you. That's pretty easy to do to Mayo people. That or he asked Liam McHale to be more aggressive at training and push (Peter) Forde out of the way, McHale took it literally and the rest of the players followed suit.

Well there's a few Mayo posters swinging wildly and missing here. A bit like their forwards.

I don't dislike Mayo at all. I was shouting for you on Sunday and would be quite happy to see you win the All-Ireland. It's the incessant whinging and moaning from Mayo supporters over the venue I don't like, and frankly, you're making fools of yourselves over it, some more than others.
