Cork/Kerry All-Ireland Football Final

Colm R

Draw

Time to start counting the hours now. After the game against Tyrone, I was able to call it. After the Kerry Meath, I was not so sure. Now I haven't a clue. Is that doubt seeping into my mind. I don't know.

The only thing I do know is that Sam will be passing through Mallow station on Monday night. But which way will it go!!!

Unless of course its a draw!

They can take a detour and pass through to Cork via Ballydesmond with Sam and pop into Tom O Sullivan's house for a cup of tae and some cáisce.:D:D

Kerry are being written off, tis great altogether, i love all the hype about Cork, and there foolish enough to believe it when we build them up. I said to one Cork man that if there was a team to be picked from the Kerry and Cork panels there wouldnt be one Kerry player on it, he replied, "sure your right there boy, but that dangly auld ginger lad corner forward might make the bench", Cork to win by 15 pints, just like Dublin did, or no what happened there again..................................

I don't think anybody is saying Cork are going to destroy Kerry this Sunday.Stakes are too high for Kerry to lose in that fashion but Kerry were comprehensively beaten by Cork this year and Cork beat the team Kerry never could...Tyrone.

So there is reason to be optimistic from a Cork point of view.The performances and form point more in favour of Cork and both teams won the league to futher highlight that on paper it will be real close.

I just think this is a different Cork team to what Kerry are used to with the likes of O Connor and Kerrigan while Cussen and Masters haven't really featured and Cork seem to have a plan A and a plan B.I don't see Kerry coming up with anything different other than the long,high balls into Walsh.I bet they'll play a diagonal style.Hand passing style of ball to each other won't get Kerry anywhere.Cork are well drilled when it comes to tackling too and Tyrone couldn't cope with this.

Yera twud take alot more to rise a Kerry man then a disillusioned Cork man. Nearly every paper iv read they go along with a Cork win, even our own Paudie O'Se is tipping a Cork win in the Indo, and with good reason too. Cork are invincible now at this stage. They have still to beat Kerry in Croke Park, but sure that means nothing.

Sure us poor old Cork fellas, we don't stand a chance really against the mighty kingdom, sure we'll probably crack at the first sight of Croke Park like we always do and you know yourself, really our fellas will try and fulfill the fixture and try and give ye a game of it.
Haven't ye been training behind closed doors in Killarney the last few weeks with Jack O coming up with another cute hoor plan to sort those Corkies out.

Sure with your 36 AI's you could do with a few more to make up for all the bad land in Kerry and the awful tourist season you've just had, feck it will we bother travelling at all.

Yerra, yerra yerra you know yourself,

Naturally Rebs, there is no point in the Cork fans travelling, but should the players actually bother to turn up?

Seems like a waste of the Cork County Board's money and effort sending Pearse and co up, money better spent on a well-deserved trip to Old Trafford for Frank methinks.

The presenter of Morning Ireland on Radio 1 got it right this morning. He was asking the question whether anybody really believed Kerry people going on with the auld talking up Cork and writing themselves off? Methinks most people are on to the not half as cute as they think Kerry Hoors.

Apolagies if I'm off topic, but I've been told by the better half that we just got tickets in the Davin stand for the game Sunday.

Just curious if anyone can tell me if it'll mostly be Cork or Kerry supporters in that stand?
Thanks in advance...

Probably 50-50 dos. You might have more Cork/Kerry people close to you, depending where you got your tickets, but it'll prob be a bit of both.

The Hill is prob the only place where Cork will have a huge majority of fans.

Are you sure Kerry are in City West, I thought they were in the D4 (Jurys Hotel) in Ballsbridge????
