you could nearly set your watch by poor auld sean - he's getting as predictable as a Mayo Kerry AI final

Mid west radio will be none too pleased by his swipe

as for the black pudding reference - enough said. understood.

I just hope Sean doesn't make a tit of himself again this year when giving his annual secreatary report.

with any luck, he won't mention the padraig nally retrial, the war in iraq or the state of the roads in erris

nice photo of our esteemed treasuer JP in this week's mayo news

the Status quo surely Barney

It would be too much to expect a freshening up on the county board committee. I suppose we should be just grateful that "we" got our man in Johnno.  But as sure as eggs are eggs - these ol cowboys will be back to haunt mayo football once again. Hopefully in the distant future, but they have some track record over the years of incompetancy and unprofessionalism

congrats to Ray dempsey on taking over the minors. looks like he has a good backroom team in place and there's a good crop of young fellas coming through the ranks too so hopefully the future will be brightish.

it's all beginning to happen. I'd say the likes of Nallen, Brady, O'Neill can be encouraged to stay on for another year. Though the training regime the JOm will put in place will be a step or two up from the M&M reign, so expect lots of blood, sweat and tears.

As for Johnno getting elected. I'd say he'll pull 3,000 - 4,000 first preference votes by virtue of who he his and where he's coming from - but his transfers will elect John Carty. East Mayo will vote East Mayo.

Cnocmore - where did the handle Farrandellin come from?

Club: Knockmore
County: Mayo
Best Memory: we've had some great outings in Croker over the years. Padraig Brogan's goal against the dubs in '85 championship is stupendous. The great fielding of Willie Joe Padden and his famous viking bandage in 89 against tyrone. Pushing cars outside An Sportlann in 92; Beating the jackeens this year in the AI semi.

Fingers crossed on john O'Mahony front - the possible link up with Killgallon and Tommy Lyons is mouth watering
JOM is being given an extraordinary amount of time........so the county board must be certain that he's now going to take the position, otherwise I think they would have reacted to the delay by now and we all know there's knee-jerkers in the county board camp. Convention is on the 8th december, so hopefully it'll be all one big happy family by then.

nice new site but will take a bit o gettin used to

its looking like next week before we get JOM's answer. Hopefully he'll take it on. Would be such a shame if he says NO two years running and he might as well forget about the election if he does that
