Taylor, what county are you in? If you are not seeing benefits from the GAA you need to be kicking up hell. Grants, Coaching courses, etc etc are dispersed all across the country.

Gods Country....Tyrone.

Facilities at county level fantastic..........club level is a whole different ball game

Don't the club's get use of Garvaghey? Blitzs etc?

Hoping for a tight competitive match. Hard to see beyond a Tyrone win though, but in sport, you never know.

Both this weekends quaters are only on Sky again by the looks of it, that's 6 big games in the last 3 weeks only available if you help swell Murdoch's coffers to watch our amateur footballers...HQ should hang their heads in shame

Anyone in the country that wanted to go could easily have got a ticket for any game they wanted and watched it. If not most people have family or friends with sky so could have gone there. Beyond that could have visited a local bar had a drink and watched the game. Online links to games another option. Don't really buy into this theory of people not being able to see games. The amount of people in the country who aren't fit to leave the house, don't have Internet or can't afford sky for a few months would be limited.

Exactly. People getting to bring children to biig games for €5 and still not happy.

exactly my hole. The games should be free to air on this island.

31 are. As many as there have ever been?

I genuinely have nothing but respect for Armagh football. They won the AI before us and made us realise we were good enough to win it too. After the 2003 final, every Armagh supporter I met was very magnanimous and gracious in defeat and congratulated us on the win. Our battles in 2005 where the defining games of that decade in my view, two of the best teams of that era at the top of their game. The semi final was just the most gut wrenchingly tense experience I think I've ever had in football. That Armagh team should have won more than 1 All Ireland and it's good to see them back playing on Croke Park in August. Having said all that, I hope we hammer the feckers next weekend and I can't wait! 😀

If we hadn't won it in 2002, would Tyrone have won it in the subsequent years?

Behave sir!

David Gough down to ref this one. He announced it on his Twitter page alongside a lovely big photo of himself. Some boy.

Joe Brolly first one to reply:

"Good man David, go easy on the cards."

Hes some man for one man.

Season tickets allocated now for Sunday.

Where did you's get just so I know for Saturday week?

306 we are in.

Nice. We got shifted to 303 in the league against the dubs due to the volume of them. Hoping it's not a repeat next weekend.

Croke Park are reported to not be too worried about loss of revenue if the Dublin fans do not purchase drink inside the ground.
"Sure Tyrones playing the same day, them hoors will make up for it!"

Between them they're giving this thing some legs.

I haven't seen any reply from Shefflin.
Fecking Sunday game is the headline news after Championship weekend more than the Championship itself.

Says it all really. Controversy is the only thing keeping it going.

At least your honest BennyCake. I'd say if I was in Armagh's boat I'd be feeling something the same. I certainly would not want Derry winning any more but doubt I'll be lying awake worrying about that for a while yet.

I'd love a Tyrone v Mayo final this year, just for the novelty of it.

Been contemplating that and I don't think I would want it. Mayo can't lose another final, they just cant. The law of averages would kick in and tyrone would suffer as a result.
Then again tyrone are overdue a win against them after championship and league in the last 12 months.

Might be surprised by the margin but not a surprise result.
Main question was would Galway get back on the horse after the CF.
If they did I think mosthe discerning folk expected they'd win.

I thought max 4 or 5 points in it, leaning Donegal. Never in a million years did i predict what happened.

Why are Roscommon 3/1 to win this game? Mayo have looked a jaded side in the qualifiers needing extra time to get past Cork and Derry. Roscommon are being heavily underestimated here I think as Mayo look to be largely a team in decline.

Because they beat Leitrim and a Galway team who just never got going. Also just after a terrible league campaign.
