f**king threw that away in normal time.

GaillimhIarthair

Well done to Monaghan.

We thoroughly got what our performance deserved.

Main Street

Galway should have had the game put away in the 70 mins but a gritty Monaghan won it in ET.  Not great quality but a nail biter of a game, graced by two  magnificent  pressure points scored by McManus and McCarron

Some score to win it for Monaghan,  yet another year in division 1 for Monaghan fantastic achievement for them to stay up in the top division this long.

Heartbreaking for Galway but only themselves to blame for not closing that game out in normal time
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Galway got what they deserved there, how do you do the hard part at the end and then just pass the ball back to them for the winner?
Fair play to Monaghan, great kick from the MOTM to do the business.
Joyce has talked a good game and not backed it up one bit. Superb player and a complete hero on the pitch but there's neither the results or the performances at the minute.  Galway are miles off Dubs and Kerry but going to Division Two is a complete setback, no point saying otherwise. Needs to get rid of Scan at least if he's there next year, this isn't a place carrying your best buddy along.

Captain Obvious

Well done to Armagh and Monaghan the latter having to work alot harder to retain their top flight status. Hopefully its a 7 game league next year with no limits on crowds.

The split into 2×4 was arseways. Galway aren't the second worst team in D1. Neither are Monaghan.

It was the same in the hurling. The standard in Galway's pool was far higher than in the other one.

If the footballers are any good they will be ar ais arís next year.

Galway clearly are because that's what the facts say right now, only win was against the other team relegated.

5 points up in the 67th minute, no point blaming the insane league structures for this, what group of well coached players would lose out from there? Where are the players heads now going into the championship? We are going f**king nowhere at the minute even if we stayed up, Mayo are rolling again with another coming team even after losing some of the greatest players that ever wore the shirt for them.
Joyce has said it's all about the championship, he'll have benefit of the doubt until we see how Galway perform but the signs are very worrying to be honest.

It's the same with the 7 game normal league campaign.

One team might just be unlucky enough to have to play 4 away games instead of 3, and a couple of tricky away games against similar standard teams and narrowly lose. Play them at home, and the game might swing the other way. Could be the difference in relegation and staying up.

I've  always thought the NFL was unbalanced. You should play the same teams home and away, even if that means a 4/5 team league.

Remember Galway supporters looked down on Kevin Walsh style of ball.  Everyone PJ  would bring the sexiness back to Galway football and dining back at top table.
