They do still matter because winning the All Ireland as Ulster champions surely must mean more. It certainly looks better in the history books. If Derry win it soon they can say they all have Ulster medals too.

A defining moment of the championship this year was immediately after the Dublin-Mayo Armagh-Galway group games. Mayo and Galway both missed out on topping their groups in almost identical circumstances with last second points be the oppposition. Galway wipe themselves down and get on with it. Mayo management, player and fans all despondent say it's impossible to progress playing 3 games in 3 weeks!  Then after a super performance v Dublin they play horrendously v Derry, and still nearly won. I've no doubt they would have beaten Derry and Kerry with a proper attitude and who knows what happens after that.

And some Tyrone posters have embarrassed themselves. Long may those lads dwell in Armagh's glory!

The best two teams this year in the final and it was an enthralling affair. Loved the game. Hard luck Galway, my learning would be you're not actually reliant on Walsh and Comer as I thought you were. If they are not 100% fit, then the next lad in is good enough to be the better option. You do have strength in depth.

But almighty congrats to Armagh. Some absolute wonder scores kicked today. Jarlaith deserved this. Geezer deserved this. Enjoy!!

so who are ga

I went back 5 pages and didn't fund any spiteful Mayo posts.  Please direct me to them as I'm in the mood for some couch chuckling this evening!

The 4th or 5th best team in Ireland have won the All Ireland.

As you should know, that doesn't matter a fiddler's f**k.

This post reads like a Joe Brolly article, in the bag ready to post at full time! It is a little sad to be honest

Oh I know, I don't blame them. Things fell for them. Can't fault them for Kerry/Galway not showing up.

Galway will be sick.

Hard luck Galway, All Ireland finals are hard won!!
Well done Armagh, what I admire the most is how you get the maximum out of your team in the big games this year.

Congratulations to Armagh.  Poor game but it doesn't matter how you get over the line as long as you do. 

Imagine picking an all star forward line from that.  There wasn't one forward on the pitch today that excelled.

Oisin Conaty had a great first half
Keep your pecker hard and your powder dry and the world will turn.

You're one sad man....

There's no romance in Galway
At least Mayo had the good grace to die with their boots on

Fair to say neither of them teams will make the semi final next year
