Galway! Our bogey team! Again!

Ah well, I'm sure our lads will be well prepared and hope we wont make mistakes along the line like we did the last 2 semis against them that contributed to those defeats, but I'm not too confident about this one. Conceding the 4 goals against them last time out must be a major worry coming in to this game. Galway have a style of football that isn't in the slightest bit fazed by our 'blanket'.

Really looking forward to it though, m'sure it will a corker of a game, Galway supporters always sound people so there will be a great atmosphere at it.

I fancied Derry to beat whoever came out of Galway-Armagh regardless, but the mindset from Galway to be able to refocus after throwing it away in injury time and to come through the way they did in extra time and then penalties... can't put a price on how much that will be worth to the panel. I think this should be a cracker of a game between two sides that are on the up and believe they can go all the way this year.

I think Galway have better forwards overall so it will be interesting to see who McKaigue picks up. If Finnerty carries his form into the semi-final that will be a huge plus for Galway.

I think both keepers are weak enough so it could be a mistake that decides it.

No one should be paying any attention to the league results.

Derry are rightly favourites for this game.
League results were an excellent predictor for Tyrone this year.
Derry were in pole position in D2 with 2 rounds left.

League results were not an excellent predictor for Dublin this year

The standard in Leinster is atrocious. It means the stats have too much noise.

Seems like they release them in stages I imagine the middle sections will come online over the next week or so.

Same happened for the match at the weekend one of the lads booked a ticket on Thursday past for the lower Hogan slap bang in the middle of the field!

I'd say that the number of season ticket holders for Galway or Derry is modest enough.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Juvenile tickets should be available in the Hogan too. Only reason they aren't seems to be for more money for adult tickets. This means that people with children who want to get their tickets early are left stuck in the corners of the field, was very evident in our game vs Clare.

You really went out on a limb with that

Will Derry sell any season tickets next year? Or will it be back to playing in front of 500 at Owenbeg or complaining that Celtic park is too far to drive? Suppose it depends how the next two games go

Thanks for the vote of confidence, very magnanimous of you
