Just watching TSG, two inaccuracies in the first ten minutes - "mayo haven't beaten Kerry in 25 years" from Lyster and "mayo changed their FB for the replay, Brendan Harrison came in to the team" from Brolly

Do these lads do any research at all?  :o
In Brollys case no and never.

I think it's safe to say they we're talking about mayo not beating Kerry in the championship and Brolly was talking about Harrison being played at FB. I think some Mayo fans are only looking for excuses to have a moan.

I know. But unless maths have changed since I was at school, 1996 isn't 25 years ago  :o

I know its been said many times but jaysus Dessie Dolan is hard to listen to on so commentary. He adds nothing to the experience and runs through the same banal cliche time after time.

He said for Kerry's second goal that he'd be delighted with that finish. A yard out and keeper lying on the ground.

Agreed. Woeful. Seems a nice enough fella but not good at the commentary at all.

Expect to see him in about 20 years time still commentating on games on RTE .Once you get in the door you are there for life no matter how inept you are.

He is a harmless aul soul and seems like a good skin but you want someone that adds meat to the main commentator' s bones. I still think the best football wingman is Kevin McStay, hopefully the Rossies give him the boot.

I'm the opposite, I find Cooper very good so far. Confident and makes some interesting points. O'se isn't as good as he was when he started. You always feel he's leaving a lot unsaid.
