Neilan was excellent in the league final, it's a pity so few know a good performance when they see it, it makes the purpose of this thread entirely pointless.

He did fine apart from failing to give Dean Rock a penalty, you have to get those big calls correct when the margins are so tight.

Dublin's bandwagon support do not travel the diehards and players might like it to an extent but no chance the GAA will move them out of their home ground. 13k in Portlaoise compared to 33k in CP for Westmeath game. €€€€€

Did Kildare vote to get Dublin out of CP for early Leinster games.At least 6 other counties of the 12 want to keep Dublin there.

So how do you account for the Kerry team of 75-86 Lar?

Beating everybody out of sight and rampaging through Munster?

This Phenomenal group a really doing the business! I mean how lucky are Dublin football to suddenly fall on such riches (excuse the pun) of talent! I know it is only a fad and will pass!

Throw up Kerry's record too.not too shabby I'd guess.

Its not a Dublin hate thread. Read the title.

It is so people like yourself can vent. Chill out man, more important things in life than the Dublin senior footballers have a good team once every 15 years.

People like me? People like me spend a lot of our time coaching kids. People like me spend a lot of our time in committee rooms. People like me spend a lot of our time setting up pitches for games. People like me give over a lot of our free time to try and give kids a chance no matter what their ability.

I'm perfectly chilled most of the time. But its grinds my gears when its dismissed out of hand that the fact that the Gaa have pumped millions in to Dublin Gaa has nothing got to do with their recent success.

Make light of it all you want. Calling posters 'people like me' is typical of the attitude of some of the Dub fans on here. Ever stop and think that it might be genuine concern with the way the Gaa is heading?

No? Didnt think so.

I'm probably taking this up wrong and I'm not directing this at you but I hate this insinuation that Dublin doesn't have this culture of people giving up their time to coach kids for the love of the game.im a primary teacher so I see first hand the level of volunteerism at schools level never mind clubs in Dublin.its not just a matter of throwing money at coaches. Dublin has at the very least the same level of volunteers who give up evenings,weekends,school holidays to coach kids.

I suppose their seems to be this attitude of the Dubs not having the same pride in the GAA as a whole in comparison to people from around the country.

Up to the other 31 to put a Motion to Congress - Dublin to be made a Province and 4 Co Boards.

How many people in Dublin use the possessive we form when referring to Man Utd ?

Probably as many as anywhere else I'd guess?

If I remember correctly, on his debut in 2001, Longford scored a goal direct from a 20 yard free. I remember thinking he won't be much good

Wasn't at the game Hound, where did O'Sullivan play?

Carlow have kicked this game away

soft goal for Monaghan

Strangled at midfield

McManus is havin a day to forget anyway

Monaghan arn't designed to play against a defensive team

It's about time the refs started using the black card for remonstrating with an official.

Did the 15 foul the ball on the advantage?

Tipp are running out of gas

Keeper beaten at near post too.
