I feel mayo are the real losers of this Connacht championship as they will not be tested into qtr finals and no matter what you say you learn nothing winning easy. If mayo get a Tyrone or Armagh etc....could be caught.
Could you say the same about Dublin? they haven't been tested by Westmeath,Kildare and will Meath test them before the qtr finals?
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Fair play to London. A decent draw in round 4 of qualifiers and they could even make an AI QF!

Nailed it! Are any of those better than Roscommon or Galway?

I think all three are better than Galway anyway. Probably Roscommon too. Even if it's only different shades of shite.

Amazing game. Electrifying series.

Forget '77. London are the story of championship 2013 and today is a day that will enter GAA folklore.

Probably not. Not much difference between div 2,3 nowadays. Kildare div 1 should be doing better

6 day turn around if when they lose the Connacht final and that will hit their chances.

Well done London,but Leitrim losing 4 of there best players through indiscipline, and mulligan just is way too much for a county of their size. They missed a free to push to extra time. I feel mayo are the real losers of this Connacht championship as they will not be tested into qtr finals and no matter what you say you learn nothing winning easy. If mayo get a Tyrone or Armagh etc....could be caught.
The alternative finalists to London were Leitrim and Sligo, both of whom London beat, so it would be hard to imagine either Sligo or Leitrim offering any more competition to Mayo than London will.

Fair play to London. Anyone have a list of their panel and their counties?

When we get rid of walsh's handicapping management we'll see our standing next yr. As far as i am concerned with walsh at the helm its not a true reflection of where we are.

If eoh wants to get into the detail all he has say walsh brings on f quinn (nt a scoring forward) before one of best scoring prospects niall murphy and then he's playing a sweeper 7 pts down with 15 to go....idiot

Walsh did the same tactic against kildare last yr with the wind and 9 pts down which resulted in us scoring 4 pts...

You're expanding your aim to Sligo now, larrin?

Who's your next victim - surely not the poor Lovelies, they're already in a bad enough state right now and you might push them over the edge.

Crazy game Leitrim almost turned around a 14 point game, Mulligan would have scored those last few frees . As Sligonian said above Leitrim can't afford to be missing many players as they simply don't have the panel. Hard to begrudge London they have beaten what was put in front of them & full credit to the Paul Goggins London are much improved from the side he took over. I hope they can give a decent account of themselves in the Connacht final they will certainly enjoy the build up.
The key to success is to be consistently competitive -- if you bang on the door often it will open

Surely God Save the Queen as well as the Soldiers Song will have to be played at the Connacht Final?
