Attention Mayo Supporters

[Mayo4Sam14]

I thought this a few months ago but I think that it could be class in Croke Park, for the quarter final. If all the Mayo fans did something like song (green and red of mayo) at a set time (51st minute?) Thoughts?

I'd prefer if we all cheered when the game ends, but each to their own I suppose.

Can do that too 😂

I like this year's optimistic upgrade of Farr!

Surely your jingoism would have been more suited to a tighter and packed ground like Limerick or the Hyde and not a half empty Croke Park?

In 1999 Ballina Stephenites played Crossmaglen Rangers in the AI Club final. A group of Ballina people with various percussion instruments and drums played and rattled out a continuous rhythm from the Hill. One of the most annoying things to ever have to encounter during a tense match. I was on holidays lately and a lad from Crossmaglen who i met talked of that day and how annoying even in victory that rhythm was.

If it was 2001, 2011 etc. There is no occasion and there is no reason other than a random anniversary number to do it. Listen, enjoy the match there are too many people caught up in creating a circus on match day.

Listen, I don't want to be a killjoy. But it looks like doing something for the sake of doing something!

Wouldn't involve any instruments, just trying to raise the atmosphere

Was that a basketball thing - Team West etc? (Serious question btw).

Anyway it didn't seem to bother brokencrossbar1.

Do you find GAA matches tend to lack atmosphere?

Love ideas like this and buddy don't let the boring brigade in here or elsewhere put you off,  Dubs are the only right supporters but more will catch on as the years go on and the dinosaurs fade away.


Club 51 try their best in fairness but probably not enough numbers . I'll pm you when I get home and i know others who want to raise the bar for a while . A song might be too optimistic but just an almighty " Mayo Mayo Mayo " more reguraly would be a start . Players do appreciate it and I know that for a fact.

Don't get me wrong. I like colour and noise. Just it has to be with the game experience, acknowledgment of a score, a good pass, a good tackle, Players coming onto the field, substitutions. Flags with our colours, Bangladesh, Portugal, Basque, etc. I have a friend who wear virtually no colours to games and they always do my head in.

The Mayo support lost their soul when St. Patrick decided to pack it in. It'd have been like Paddy Joe deciding to give up on supporting Roscommon.

Actually I agree with you there
