Lads whinging about the ref are clutching at straws. He let Mayo away with plenty.

No way. Whatever about the red cards and soft scorable frees Dublin got in the first half, failure to give a blatant stone wall penalty with 10 minutes left  which could have put Mayo clear is not cluthing at straws.

Contact started well before they entered the box. I know Dessie and Ger are easily fooled but you'd think anyone watching at home could use their eyes to see that.

Doesn't matter where contact started.

If Dublin Joe was working for Dublin AOS would have been black carded 5 seconds into the 2nd half

Rock took minimum 9 steps for one of his points. Penalty call too. Didn't seem to have the bottle to make big calls.

Rock was getting the advantage for being pulled back which is why he got extra steps.

Such nonsense. The advantage rule doesn't give you free reign to take as many steps as you like

Many times you get extra steps in that circumstance but he would have had a 13m free so it would have made no difference

Still doesn't excuse another wrong call.

Barrett MOTM for me.

A lot of kickouts gone backwards. They have to go forward. Basic rule.

Jesus there's a bag of cynicism in that game. O gara coming in over the top with the knee was worse than the face grab. He should have been sent off.

It's gouging not a face grab.

Dublin Joe

The big 4 left at senior level. Gaels got it a lot tougher than expected. Castlerahan good win minus Mackey.

Like a GAA game. Fans mixing together.

Finally an atmosphere at the Emirates.

Frank Vincent - 78 played Billy Batts (Goodfellas) and Phil Leotardo (Sopranos)

Great actor. Recently took into Sopranos and playing a blinder. Typecast as he said himself. It was always him and Joe Pesci going for the same part.

I don't believe anything that is counter to the natural order,should be legislated as equal to the natural order.I see very little difference between triumphalist gay pride parades and Orange Order parades,all just sticking two fingers up at their opponents,in my view.

Neither do I believe any of the political parties that support gay marriage in the North,really care.The old guard of the SDLP like Hume and Mallon would never have supported it,the current young leadership doesn't know its arse from its elbow,and SF supports anything that they perceive to be a vote winner.

Counter to the natural order. 

De Boer was hired to introduce a more possession based style of play and given only four games to do it. Ridiculous. And now Woy replaces him. Jesus wept.

Just wondering has anyone beinh watching the episodes. I thought their views when they saw Tyrone's Centre of Excellence was interesting and how impressed they were. Also how they liked seeing kids out on field at Carlow Leitrim game.

Did Lee Chin not play league of Ireland soccer?

Dipped his toes in it. Cian Mackey played with Monagan United and Armagh City while part of Cavan panel so it happens.

Not a fan at all but he was decent in one quarter final.
