Tyrone vs Mayo AISF Semi-Final - August 25th

[ONeill]

In all honesty, how are we going to cope with these lads?

4-16, 0-21, 5-11 and 4-17.

And we're not a patch on Donegal's defence.

gulp.

Can we match Mayo's intensity?
Is it an idea to throw Ronan O'Neill in as an unknown at this level?
Do we try to win by concentrating on shutting them out hoping they lose the heads?

I had a nightmare last night that Mayo led 1-9 o 1-0 at Ht. Our goal came from our first touch in the 35th min. I was afeard to sleep again.

That's All-Ireland winning scoring.

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

I reckon Tyrone are going to struggle for scores. Their forward line is weak. Mayo aren't foulers.

Can't see past Mayo. Still going for 10+.

That's right (our 6th game in 7 weekends against Monaghan is neither here nor there, and we were beaten by a fairly flat Donegal, even though they peaked for it in a hostile Ballybofey).

Get your money on that margin, and quit the oul bullshitting.

[Lar Naparka]

I never told them where I was from. Even Meath men were agreeing.

We like winding up Mayo people. We like winding up Tyrone people.

Agreed on both counts but, like Delaney's dog ,yer good at giving but not so hot when it comes to taking same.

That reminds me; anyone seen Jinxsy lately?

Whaaa? What have I failed to take?

And "whaaa" to you also.
Joe Sheridan's dive into the annals of folklore comes to mind.

Dive? Ref gave a penalty.

I thought the try was given when he dived over the line.
Can't remember now what happened next.
Was the try converted?

In fairness look at who we have played or the context of the teams we have played.

Tyrone haven't bate anyone worth 2d either.

HS - you've just insulted all of Offaly, Ros, Kildare, Meath and Monaghan.

You'll be popular. That's like something Brolly would have come out with.

[ONeill]

Tyrone haven't bate anyone worth 2d either.

That is true. We have not bate a side I'd consider a fine scalp.

Ah Lar. I thought we were having a wind-up competition.

Tell you what, we'll cancel that lapse of originality and give you a free shot. Go ahead.

And apart from the Offaly game all those games was only two point wins. Imagine if Mayo had that poor form going into this semi final?

You can not call winning five consecutive games poor form?

Tyrone haven't beaten a decent team since 2008. Mayo keep beating reigning all Ireland champions!

In fairness look at who they have played, three of the five sides were playing division three football last spring and Tyrone fell over line against them all.  You can't call that anything other than poorish form?

How many of those games were away from home? How many were lost? How many of those games did they look like losing? Can't see the bad form in any of the results or run?

Keep 'er lit Bunks; you're playing a blinder!

Any more of this and I'll start to believe you meself.

Only against the might of el Ros, Bunker.
