It can be very confusing tbh. Once a county reaches its provincial final is it in effect not in the A or B system anymore?

Provincial losers go into the last round of the A or B qualifiers depending on how it's drawn out originally.

Ulster and Leinster finals are the televised games. Sky have a qualifier on Saturday evening. That may be the Mayo game.

Replay not televised. In fairness as intriguing as it was, it was awful to watch. So not much attraction.

Is there anything to be said for a return to the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick???

Would suit me (and a few other Limerick based exiles) but nobody else I guess.

Fr Tod Umptious

Over on the Ross thread it seems the Sunday is confirmed for the replay.

Therefore 7pm on Saturday, on Sky looks likely.

Oldtree

Eir win lose draw has had TBA's changed since this morning to

Galway - Roscommon 16th July Castlebar
Mayo - Kildare 16th July TBC

must be a holding thing again

Oldtree

but connaught telegraph has it as of 12.14pm

UNCONFIRMED reports are suggesting that Mayo's clash with Kildare in the All-Ireland SFC Qualifers will take place at Elverys MacHale Park, Castlebar, at 7 p.m. on Saturday.

As a result, the Connacht GAA Council is understood to be in the process of changing its original decision to stage the provincial final replay between Roscommon and Galway at the venue on Saturday and moving it to Sunday afternoon instead with a 3 p.m. or 3.30 p.m. throw-on.

Official confirmation of the alternations is expected shortly.

Well everyone can see that logic as you have outlined above. But remember this is Prenty, the lad who put the Connacht final in Hyde when there was no seating for all the season ticket holders, the farcical mess in the Mayo V Galway game with the unreserved "oh its reserved" seating.
The same chap who said Mayo fans always have something to whinge about when Limerick was used as semi final replay spot.
The only thing they see is the euros.

So what ever we see as logical or problematic will be ignored. They will save on so much by having one venue and charge top dollar.

Well, looks like you were completely wrong but you had your rant at the connacht council anyway

Oldtree

Got the email bill for the upcoming game on Saturday, but attendance still not updated for last Saturday :rolleyes:

Similar position here, hmmmmm.

I'm not the only one so. I just asked in the season ticket thread if anyone had been updated yet.

The reason they couldn't have them on at the same time is that one game is Connacht Council and the other is Croke Park/GAA. So I was wrong in that, but Connacht Council are still a circus as is Prenty.

You didnt say anything about the time, you said they would go for one venue and you also said that there would be a clash for the Kildare seniors and minors. Wrong again.

If Mayo win on Saturday. Who might they be playing next and when will the game be on?

Ah, Mr Prenty is it?

Anyway, they are clowns. Run by a clown. End of.

If they win they will play losers of Dublin v Westmeath or losers of Tyrone v Donegal and it will be more than likely in Croke Park on Saturday July 30th.

Its only at that stage the games should get to a better standard. Any of them 4 would cause the team issues. Obviously you would be hoping that WestMeath wouldn't but the other 3 would cause us serious problems.

No it is not.

Who are they? The Connacht Council and the CCCC? seeing as you were wrong on both counts?

Coillte_Bhoy

Would much prefer if home and away was the practice up to the QF's. Makes for great atmospheres and utilizes provincial grounds.

It's probably safe enough to assume that it's Westmeath and one of the Ulster two. We'll be praying for Westmeath if we get past Kildare.

The absolute ideal scenario would be as follows

Beat Kildare
Get and beat Westmeath next
Hope Ulster losers beat Cork/Longford
Beat Ulster champs in QF
Then play Galway/Roscommon/Tipp/Clare/Sligo/Cavan/Derry in the SF on 21/08.

That's the only route to avoid Dublin, assuming Dublin win Leinster.

Fr Tod Umptious

Would I be right in saying this is the first Mayo v Kildare championship game.
