I think Mayo will win this, cant understand the negativity from their supporters.... it's not like them to talk their team's chances down lol.
Monaghan are the type of team that should suit Mayo especially with Banty as manager.
Plenty of Mayo supporters talked themselves up prior to the All-Ireland final against Tyrone last year and few haven't posted since out of embarrassment after their pre-match talk?
It's not embarrassment. People genuinely thought Mayo would win last years final, and I don't think that was some crazy belief - there were plenty of arguments that could be made in their favour, and some obvious ones against!
But the aftermath of that loss has been long and isn't over yet. The appetite for it seems to be gone from a lot of supporters, and certainly the belief that we will get over the line any time soon seems to be buried.
I'm not quite as pessimistic and the general consensus could change with a couple of good wins in the next few weeks, but I doubt it.
