Fair play to Roscommon.

[Jinxy]

Did not let petty local rivalry get in their way today.
Instead, they went all out to save their close neighbour's Division 1 status.
I salute them.
It was the manly thing to do.

[Syferus]

I only read the title, but yes. Fair play to us. We're mighty.

Roscommon did what was good for Roscommon football today! Trying to beat Cavan was the only option for a team wanting to go into the Championship on some sort of a positive note. This was no surprise. Roscommon would have fancied winning this game.

That's a bit mean-spirited.

That's a bit mean-spirited.

We're like that down here, a bit like yerselves, miserable f**kers

If the roles were reversed we would have played the U-12 team, with a few U-10s for experience

Is Gay Sheerin giving another state of the nation address today I wonder??
The Rossies might have the last laugh in the summer though!

Also known as, 'The Kildare Option'.

Can't see why any neighbour wouldn't do such a thing. Unless the neighbours were a shower of Dubs after moving down to the country or something

Rubbish. You obviously don't know either man.

[Jinxy]

They were shafted by their own county so I doubt that was a factor.

The two Mcs have at least shown they would never have cow-towed to the Breaffy-Ballintubber mafia like Rochford did last September.

Would Mayo have won than replay had Clarke started? Probably..

I know both and all belonging to them very well. I used to kick a bit of ball with them too back in the previous millennium.  I assumed my remark would be takin in the spirit of the original post and poster. Relax a stór.

Good resilience today and a very solid win.
