Jaysus, RTÉ have tipped Mayo on their website.  :o
Still big underdogs, but nowhere near as written off as we were before Cork.

Read that. Thank you Seamus Leonard,whoever you are!

He is tied up in a shed behind the Sportlann in Castlebar until after the match. Unless we win that is.

Great post.  I'll never forget  2001 when the 2 Connacht teams won the club all-irelands- Crossmolina in the fuball and Athenry in the hurling.    What a day.

Yeah Seafoid forgot about the club AIs. Also in '01 Galway were AI champions, Mayo were league champions and Ross were Connacht champions. I also think Sligo, Mayo, Ross and Galway contested the league semis that year too.

Yeah, that's right. Although, foot and mouth had a part to play in that I think. The northern teams couldn't come down to fulfill some fixtures. It was still some achievement though, having all four semi finalists from one province, never mind from the province always derided as by far the weakest.

I was at the finals in 1988 when Athenry lost the hurling and Clann lost the football so 2001 was very,  very sweet.  I thought it would never happen.

I love getting in behind the Province, when we cross that river, great comradery among the people of the West. Lets hope that on the 18'th of September there will be 3 Connacht Counties on show.
Time to take a more chill-pill approach to life.

RTE so far have tipped Leitrim to beat Roscommon, Roscommon to win the Connacht final & Cork to beat Mayo.
