Quote from: Captain Obvious on May 18, 2025, 04:40:13 PMSerious result for Cavan I hope they get the credit they deserve than the usual shite from the media saying how poor Mayo was.

Ah, i'd expect they will. Only so much can be blamed on Mayo being flat. Hopefully Cavan get momentum from this result.

Yes. Played around 15 minutes and got a great point from play. But more fitness and match time to come yet

Football is good. There I said it!

The Munster hurling (Glory be...) isn't living up it today but it'll be lauded.

them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

Really surprised at the Mayo Cavan result as others have said Cavan were so poor against Tyrone. Credit must go to Galligan for getting them to hit the reset button.

Brilliant result for Down also. Expected them to win but the manner of victory was very impressive.

Yes football people need to change the narrative

Cavan should have got promoted to Div 1. They outplayed us in the Hyde and then somehow lost to Cork at home (whose own league form was poor and were in danger of demotion at one stage). Very unpredictable team. I listened to the game on Midwest. 1-2 in added time put a bit of a gloss on the scoreline for Mayo. Poor weekend overall for Connacht football. Galway are still a good team, but Mayo and Ros look in trouble already. Congrats to Cavan.

Wuld you rule out Mayo/WestRoscommon going to Omagh and winning after that?

Mayo very unpredictable themselves.

Glimmer of hope for Mayo yet. Have two week break to lick their wounds and listen to everything Tom Dick and Harry right them off now.  Tyrone meanwhile have a tough battle with Donegal next week before facing Mayo.

Well done to Cavan today the 3 point margin didn't do their performance justice at all.

That 1-2 they scored in injury time might just have kept them in it.

They'll not go out on a whimper Mayo teams don't tend to do that without pulling some result out of the bag from somewhere.

Football has been great this year... narrative it was dreadful till these rule changes. Munster hurling championship usually brilliant but not so today.
Both can be great now.. they aren't in opposition!

Rossfan

Just when one couldn't feel any lower along come the Rhus to the rescue.
We'll probably both finish 4th in the Groups.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Didn't see that Mayo defeat coming at all

They were never in opposition though.. football just couldn't live up to their own hype. Now the changes have come in and we are getting cracking games.

Did a club minor game this morning, was best game i did all year, just up and down the pitch..no two pointers though but thoroughly enjoyed it
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Cavan had lots of time since the Tyrone game to work on things. Mayo dont have the players to blitz teams so Cavan always had a chance. They were probaly still deflated from connacht final. Mcstay hasnt brought them on at all in the 3 years.

Three of the teams in provincials finals lost this weekend out of 4, wonder if this will also be the situation next weekend? Louth post partying could be at risk having to play "away" in Newbridge against a hungry Monaghan, and Donegal v Tyrone is always a tossup; Armagh v Derry and Meath v Cork not gimmees either
