Donegal v Dublin semi final 28-8-11

[cadence]

cheers heffo and @ indiana, please try to be nice to us poor donegal folk, we're only up for the day out.

[heffo]

Yep indeed Heffo. Donegal are very sure of themselves. Me Eniff declaring we wont be able to cope with the blanket defence despite the fact our 21's coped comfortably with the exact same system last year in Brefni Park.

Can Donegal cope with the hype within their own county? Time will tell.

We'll try and turn up and give them a game anyway.

If we can.

Don't know about comfortably, if it wasn't for Murphy missing a penalty Donegal would have won.

If's, but's, should'ves & couldv'es are great. Dublin would have about sixty All-Ireland if it wasn't for them.

There is going to be about 30k of you people there Sunday Cadence, just be gracious in victory. We're fragile enough as it is.

Did Murphy not miss a last minute penalty that would have won the game for Donegal? Now I didn't see the game but 1-10 to 1-8 hardly sounds comfortable. Sounds to me like a war of attrition that could have gone either way.

These are 2 different teams though so who knows what will happen. I'm not a huge fan of either the Dubs or Donegal and it will hardly be a classic I should imagine although I do think it wil be intersting to see how it pans out. If Dublin play the way they did against Tyrone they will win but I can't see Connolly doing that again, strikes me as the sort of boy that when it's put up to him and he has someone in his face he will go missing. Donegal on the other hand don't have a lot of scoring power bar Murphy but if McFadden finds his form they could possibly sneak it.

I'm going to go for a draw and Pat Spillane to get the Wigan Warriors over to play the winners of the replay as Kerry shouldn't lower themselves to playing against gym monkeys given their far superior footballing ability!!

It was the deciding factor & reading INDIANA post one would think Dublin won by 10 plus points.

Yeah but we got some specialised gym monkeys in from your neck of the woods at the weekend to help us penetrate the blanket defence.

We figured  on your advice with your one all-ireland in 120 years there was obviously something we were missing. So this could be our secret weapon at the weekend.

But then again your chimps couldnt beat Donegal. Maybe they needed more bananas.

Jurys Croke park would be the last place in Dublin I'd bring tourists on Sunday especially if they have kids.

Yeah, not the place necessarily for the single kid they might have, but for themselves it would be total immersion.

A word in an Garda's ear would do the trick!

The game will look after itself. But here s one of many great versions of a great song.

Tír Chonaill abú.
