No Aussie Rules this year, so the Monaghan v Derry game please.

I'd like to see Down v Laois for footballing reasons. I think it would be open enough. Or Longford v Kerry. A potential banana skin for an upset Kerry team. Longford in Pearse Park shouldn't capitulate, and if Kerry are still off form, that could be a shock. Kerry won't be taking it for granted.

I hope it's not Derry - Monaghan, because we've seen them play this year already. It wasn't a good game that day, but even if it was, I'd prefer to see something different.

I think both teams know what people think of them and as the man says unfortunately someone has to win.  In a strange way I can see Monaghan and Derry men going out and playing with a huge amount of gay abandon making the viewer sit down, stare, hide the remote and tell their wives to pixx away off to the bingo.

Well, if you believed 10% of what is written on this board, it's what we should all aspire to.

Do TV3 get the match this weekend?

Because otherwise it's Clare v Galway in the hurling.
Title: Re: Which qualifier should be shown on TV
Post by: AZOffaly on July 06, 2009, 11:12:23 AM
Yeah, TV3 have the 'pick' of the football qualifiers, and they'll 'let us know during the week' which one will be on. Paraphrasing Matt Cooper.

Wicklow v's Cavan could be a good game and another chance for Micko to get one over an Ulster team....

Oh how ye bate lugs and cause general mayhem and michieviosity

Down v Laois for me. Then live coverage of Ross Carr getting burned at the stake outside Canal Court

It would be Wicklow vs Cavan for me.

It would be great to see a Micko Team and us of course.  We could express ourselves as much as we could and hopefully it wouldn't bee too negative.

Anyone but Cavan. Twice in the one year is already too much exposure for the Nation .... at least until Tommy Carr moves on to cement the demise of some other once proud football county .....

I think it should be Derry v Monaghan. Two really talented teams who play fast-flowing open football, supplemented by some of the best players in the country. Knockout football at its best, it has the makings of an absolute classic:

2-16 apiece.

Westmeath v Meath or Longford v Kerry should be broadcast live.

Monaghan v Derry should be kept to Aertel.

love to see either down and laois....or abit of exposure for tipp on the national stage...

Post by: Jinxy on July 06, 2009, 02:20:10 PM
They should show Longford and Kerry.
It'd be nice to see a weaker team getting a bit of exposure.
Wouldn't do Longford any harm either.

The Longford v Kerry game is on TV3 at 5pm according to www.gaa.ie

Own up, who voted for Roscommon v Wexford  :D

Saw both Down and Laois this year, both are capable of playing good football and are big enough names to draw decent neutral viewership, should be a competitive game too. Down served up the game of the year in Newry last year on the web, give this one a shot! (Plus if Down do lose, there will be the chance to see the Down fans bid a fond fairwell to Carr!!)

I dont hate Ross at all brick, I think hate is a very strong word that people use too easily. I think Ross is a decent enough lad, great footballer, just a poor manager.

Then Clare v Galway hurling at 7pm, so 3 games on the trot which is too much.
Title: Re: Which qualifier should be shown on TV
Post by: pintsofguinness on July 06, 2009, 08:27:54 PM
Id like to see Down V Laois, it'll be the closest game with the exception of Monaghan V Derry and although I wouldnt mind seeing it it'll be more of the same shit.  

I'd rather that than sitting through Kerry giving Longford a hammering.

I think its good. There's also good variety in the 3 games. You'll have 2 evenly matched teams in Derry and Monaghan playing a hard hitting close game. Then you'll have something a bit different with Longford being a real undedog. Expect it to be an open game and hopefully a good home support will drive on Longford to put it up to Kerry although a win looks well beyond them. Hurling should be close to and will be interesting to see if Galway can build on the Kilkenny performance.

As I'll be at the game I don't care what they show but If Laois weren't playing I would like to watch Tipp v Sligo to be honest..

Why would he want to vent hatred against one of the most beautiful towns in all of Down?

Ill get my coat.
