Since 2008,

Dublin have won 9
Kerry have won 3
The rest have won 4 - Tyrone 2, Cork and Donegal one each

Unless the rest win 2 of the next 4, this 20 year period will be the worst for the rest in the history of the competition

I don't think the rest will win 2 of the next four. Still life in the Dubs yet and Clifford can beat the rest on his own.

Between 1955 and 1981 Mayo won only two Connacht Championships. There was no visit for Mayo to Croke Park in the Championship in the 70's. You presume immigration had a big say in this. Then again Roscommon and Galway would also have been affected.

Sligo even won during that barren period for Mayo, in 1975.

It is amazing how it switches from the old firm to the rest regularly
The biggest difference between the 2 has been 8 Sams. That was last in 2008 when Tyrone won.
The whole thing is mad.
Currently the Old Firm are up by 2.
