Connacht final 1997 Mayo v Sligo! Referee gives one minute extra time! Sligo had us on the rack. Would have lost if the proper injury time was given.

If you were any use you'd be playing.

AQMP

I don't think this has ever happened to Antrim!

The Subbie

2005 Div 2 league final v Meath without a doubt!

Insane Bolt

Armagh beating Fermanagh 1993 preliminary round replay......daylight robbery😎

I think Down were playing that day as well, were they?
All I remember is some fella from Down, who'd had a few drinks, giving everyone dogs abuse before he was 'asked' to leave.  ;D
Which was a pity, as I think he would have quite enjoyed the finale.
Maybe Down weren't actually playing and he just came along to remind Meath people that, 'The Mourne men were well able for youse fcukers!'

Down didn't play that day.  Armagh beat Wexford in the Division 1 final afterwards.

If you could give a score, based on the degree of theft that took place, this would win hands down. It's still mindboggling, twenty five years later.   :o

Down in this years qualifiers, what a robbery that was

In fairness we were never really in that game until we got a goal with a minute or two to go to bring it back by two points, and then Paul Durcan landed a huge point in injury time, only for Curley to blow up almost immediately. Injury time wasn't that much of a thing back then so there was never going to be much added on. Might have nabbed a draw if the momentum continued but that's about it.

If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Louth should never have won the 2010 Leinster Final.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

Damn right. Like Jinxy's Meath, my Mayo deserved every win we got.
