anyone any stats on wides/frees/kickouts won etc.

Wides Roscommon 9 Mayo 7
Frees awarded Roscommon 20 Mayo 23
Midfield clean/breaks won Roscommon 21 Mayo 14
Scoring chances Roscommon 11/24 Mayo 13/23

Where did you get those Stats?

Them stats are what TV3 had at end of match

Yes TV3. A few more & they concern the Ref Michael Collins, Yellow cards Roscommon 6 Mayo 6 can you remember a bad foul? common sense was needed in conditions like that. 38mins was played in the 1st half the ball was only in play for 17mins goes to show Collins never let the game flow, don't have the 2nd half stats but i guess it's more or less the same.

I see two Duffy's from Sligo are refs this weekend why wasn't one of them the ref in Connacht final?

Peter was captain alright in '93, maybe Frank noone in '88 and John Finn in '93

Nearly certain it was Flanagan in 1988. Went off injured in the semi final as I recall.

I m sure it was Flanagan in 88 also. Yeah he took a blow to the head v Meath. But I thought Peter Forde was captain in 92 and led the heave against Brian McDonald? I have no memory of Kevin Beirne ever captaining the side. He was hardly ever a nailed down certainty to start championship.

Peter Forde was the players' spokesman in the revolt against Brian McDonald. He was the captain at that time alright. I'm nearly sure Flanagan was captain in '88 but I'll need to check it out with a friend who's a mad Mayo follower and collector of memorabilia before I'd put money on it. I'm sure he will have an old programme or two lying about the place.

I'm fairly sure Kevin Beirne was captain in 1993. But if anyone read Martan Ó Ciardha's piece in the program last Sunday, record keeping isn't always given the attention it deserves.

Dermot Flanagan captained ye in '88 against Ros all right.

There was a fair Ballagh contingent on board that year including Durks, and the probably lesser remembered Tom Morgan, who had a short enough ic career and started at FF that day.

And of course ye were managed on the day by the Ballagh resident Johnno also.

moysider · July 20, 2011, 12:02:07 AM

So the correct captains and years are Dermot Flanagan 88, Peter Forde 92 and Kevin Beirne 93. Strange one Beirne being captain.

Peter Forde was captain in 1992 and followed by Kevin Beirne in 1993 according to wikipedia!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Ford_(Gaelic_footballer)

So the correct list is:

1985 - Henry Gavin
1988 - Dermot Flanagan
1989 - Jimmy Browne
1992 - Peter Forde
1993 - Kevin Beirne

1997 - Noel Connelly
1999 - Kenneth Mortimer
2004 - Fergal Costello/Gary Ruane

Hard to tell? they count 1904,1939 even though these titles weren't won.

Cosmo Kramer · July 20, 2011, 08:07:45 PM

Yes, Mayo are up to 43 now, the program on Sunday incorrectly said we only had 41 before this year.

Anyone know where (if anywhere) the match is available to view online? Usually one of the stations have it up but all I can find are highlights packages.
