drastic steps have to be taken, so I'm doing the opposite of immigrating. I intend to go as many mayo games as possible, starting on sunday

The 1999 world cup incident was no more than one of the aussies holding Brennans arms down while Kefou proceeded to box the head off him.

I don't know the fella, but it's a bit harsh making personal comments like that on the board, well out of order if you ask me.

I deleted that comment McDanger.

Stephenite, surprised u haven't mentioned this yet, heard it on wednesday nite but it seems to be common knowledge at this stage, Gazza McHale having transferred over to play under his uncle.

Not the sort of thing i like to see happening but he's a good young footballer and the family is from knockmore, not that thats an excuse.

I said after ballina lost to cross in the semis that a lot of the younger lads were annoyed and gazza actually said it to me that nite, i took it with a pinch of salt but apparrently he's training with knockmore and I'm led to believe
that he has transferred

At half time of the ballina cross semi final , the ballina young lads spent the half time interval playing "keep e uppies" . The cross subs were in the dressing room. You'd have to wonder about the attitude of the players coming through in Ballina.

Rufus, if you were stuck you could try a proxy site. Just type in the gaaboard address in the url line on the website below

Since you're on the site, why not add them yourself? If everyone did that, then it would be the complete list.

Done. I added 10 North Mayo clubs as they misspelled Kiltane and linked it to some place in Meath.

This is the best list i've seen

It's the only list I've seen but its missing 9 clubs from North Mayo alone

Fair play to ya Owenmoresider. O Neill was putting up big scores. Remembering back now, some of the points he was scoring were unreal. The western is a bit chaotic with its archives alright!

Im going there next week with work. I was thinking of staying in a hotel close to the airport. Any recommendations? is the airport far from the City?

Well said Seanie! It will be a miracle if the league is completed according to that timeline Abbeysider, although it should improve things. Any of the knockmore or Cross people remember what date the league final trilogy was completed a few years back?

The Last time I can remember Jimmy Nallen not starting when available was the League final in 2001. He came on at half time and I think he might have ended up getting the man of the match award.

I was a bit worried when T Mort wasnt on the team, but it'll likely be 12-15  different players on sunday for the roscommon game.

One way to keep it interesting for those who miss a week might be:

After the 7 rounds of league matches, Allow each contestant to drop thier worst weekly score( a bit like the Showjumping).
Carry on as normal in the knockout stages

Probably not that easy for Dickyrock and Sligoman, unless they could come up with some mad computer program to do the adding and subtracting!

It looks like a good system alright. Division 1B looks an awful lot stronger. Possibly 5 of the top 6 teams are in that division, although Kiltane might be in the top 6.


Great to see Moygownagh in the same division as us in 2B. A good derby clash in store. There'll be a mass exodous out of Australia and back to Belville when they get wind of this!

I think Muscles has it almost right with his list - not far off at all, specifically with the two Claremorris teams in the top 10, the Claremorris juniors have been ignored for far too long now

Stephenite,in fairness to Muscles, I think the second Claremorris was a typo. Im sure he meant to write Crossmolina there.

The Garrett Cup is contested by the Cross Juniors and Lahardane. The mountainy men should have made it thier business to have red and white ribbons tied to the Lydon cup.
