Would banning the back pass to the goalkeeper completely solve the problem???
The goalkeeper is normally the extra man.If he was taken out of the equation would it encourage the team without the ball to push up and engage the team with the ball.

Horan is and always will be a great manager. The failing with Horan over both his tenures in charge was his trying lads in the league and then come championship reverting to the old reliables. Many's the player had a great league and for some reason or other were never chanced in the championship.

My hope for Saturday is that we end up by default, due to injuries  "finding" a team. Orme (a fine player) and the rest of the young lads might become something we are looking for and surprise everyone including Horan.

It's die dog or shite the licence time for us on Saturday, after 10 minutes we will know if our young lads are up for it.

Horan is no doubt a good coach but to be considered a great I think he needs to win the big one.

Lee Keegan
Ciaran Mc Donald
Colm Boyle
David Clarke
Keith Higgins
Andy Moran? Cillian O'connor? Liam Mchale?

Cora Staunton has to be there too.
All fantastic players but I can't see who I would drop out to make room for them.Id also give honourable mentions to James Nallen and Chris Barrett too.Barretts performance in the 17 final was the best I've ever seen.

I had received my booster dose on Monday.
When I felt bad on Tuesday I thought it was a reaction to the booster as many people I work with had experienced similar.
The negative antigen test then gave me an extra false sense of security

Lads just a word of caution if anyone is going using a negative antigen test as a green light to meet a load of people over the Christmas period.I had symptoms of COVID from last Monday night.Took an antigen test before work on Tuesday I was all clear.Took another Wednesday morning all clear.Took another Wednesday evening at 6 o clock as I felt my symptoms were getting worse.Again this was a negative result.Half 12 Wednesday night I done another test and it was positive.This result has since been confirmed by a PCR test.In the space of 6 hours my antigen test changed from negative to positive.Spending Christmas in isolation is no fun but bringing COVID home to someone vulnerable would have been a lot worse.If you have any symptoms get a PCR test and stay the f**k away from people...
                             Happy Christmas to all

There's a lot of cute hoorism coming from Mayo supporters this year. This contrasts with the irrational exuberance of previous years. But like all finals this is a 50/50 game, just like the previous Dublin/Mayo finals - any one of which could have gone Mayo's way. Of course I'm hoping for a Dublin win but I won't tempt fate.....
Ah stop😂😂😂😂.....

Would make you wonder why Mayo even started training this year
Should we have just given up??? An analysis of the 2 teams over the last few games would have Dublin as clear favourites.

Theres zero hype in Mayo.I dont know if thats because of covid or the fact that most supporters dont give us much hope of beating Dublin.Tipp scored 3.13 against us and could have had another 5 or 6 goals.We are also having major trouble with our kickouts.This dosent bode well when your facing the dubs in a few days time.But who knows....Sport throws up surprises from time to time.Im going to throw out a few flags and enjoy the build up to the game.I will be watching this final in hope more so than expectation.Regardless of what happens it has been a good year for Mayo.Despite relegation we have introduced several new players that look at home at the top level and a connacht title was very nice.

How many of the Mayo old guard are still actually involved?
No one really knows Angelo and i dont think we will know what Horan is thinking until the Roscommon game if we get that far.The team selections so far have been strange.Irs hard to see Aido been left at ff if we are losing midfield as badly as we did on sunday.Loftus is not an inter county midfielder IMO.

No one really knows Angelo.

Mayo team named.

1. David Clarke - Ballina Stephenites
2. Oisín Mullin - Kilmaine
3. David McBrien - Ballaghaderreen
4. Lee Keegan - Westport
5. Patrick Durcan - Castlebar Mitchels
6. Stephen Coen - Hollymount/Carramore
7. Eoghan McLaughlin - Westport
8. Matthew Ruane – Breaffy
9. Conor Loftus - Crossmolina Deel Rovers
10. Fionn McDonagh - Westport
11. Mark Moran - Westport
12. Diarmuid O'Connor - Ballintubber
13. Tommy Conroy - The Neale
14. Aidan O'Shea - Breaffy (C)
15. Cillian O'Connor - Ballintubber

A very surprising team.More like an fbd team in january to be honest.Looks like Horan has given up on the league.
Oisín Mullin is a cracking player. Tommy Conroy also has the potential to make a big impact.
Two big pluses for ye since last year

Oisín is unproven as of yet and t c at this present moment wouldn't make the Galway third choice team . We are doomed going forward anyone that thinks otherwise is kidding themselves. Tomorrow night when we are relegated you'll have a positive spin put on it by ejits who don't realise why mayo have been competitive the lastb20 odd years

While im glad to see Oisin Mullen and Tommy Conroy in there thats a very dissapointing team to be sending into a must win game against one of our biggest rivals.Some of the players on that team havent played well in years and some of them have had umpteen chances and just dont look up to it.I can understand not putting in some of the older guard but the likes Of the 2 O Donoghues Padraig O Hora James Carr and Darren Coen should be in here IMO.Going by the club championship some of our more established players have faded and shouldnt be guaranteed starters anymore.Maybe its a dummy team but i doubt it
