Galway team named,no Gary Sice or even more surprisingly Danny Cummins.Seriously rate that lad.

Cummins struggled with niggly injuries trhoughout the league.

I am surprised to not see Sice starting because he at least gives us a reasonably reliable option from frees (which we dont have based on that starting line up). I am not convinced this will be the starting 15 - could easily see somebody else start in place of Armstrong. And it definitely wont be the positions that they line out in. For example, Daly hasnt a hope of starting in the full forward line. He will be 10 or 12.

Conoreen is just looking to drive traffic to his twitter account and Paddy Power blog by saying ****e that appeals to the great unwashed followers of the current all Ireland champions.

Alot of Mayo people had the blinkers on with our exiled "Micheal Jackson" and now that he has his blue jersey on they see the light.

I think what he did when Horan gave him some medicine that he didn't like, was not on. He did it to cause as much disruption as possible right before the final.

He is well suited up in the big smoke but why anyone would listen to him is another question.

You can have him back!!! Well suited my backside. Cluxton didn't want to be on the same team as him!
He'll never have a blue jersey on, he's a product of your county and always will be.

The more I see of Conoreen on Twitter the more he is becoming a big Dub footballer lovin. He probably wants to try and get on the good side of journos and Dublin football to get a bit of a career out of him.

There is zero issue with AOS and management, its a trail of journo and keyboard warrior spew that will of course stick. Little bernadine flynn was the last on that and when the real truth came out then he looked 5ft 5" tall.

Will be a great game and the U17 game before hand. Id say it will sell out if it hasn't already.

Jayzus. That is some beef yiz have with Mayo's leading championship scorer. :eek:

You really do turn on your own, when they stray outside the Circle of Trust, don't ye? I can't imagine that happening in any other county, even if the man in question made a prize pillock of himself, when he chose to hang up his inter county boots.

Each to their own...I suppose.

Anyhoo, if yiz don't want to take your issues & hug it out somewhere, you can at least leave us out of it. We couldn't give a flying fcuk what Conor Mortimer thinks about us or anyone else. Why would we?

He is playing his football in some club up there, that what I mean by the blue jersey. Sure ye guys have loads of media bucks like jackson, so he will fit right in.

Mort, the natural forward, is basically from Galway anyway

You're a sensitive soul. If you disagree with what I've said I suggest you review Conoreen's Twitter ramblings since before the Paddy Power gig was announced and you'll see what I'm referring to. He probably doesn't believe what he says himself half the time, will follow the way the wind is blowing and then contradict himself shortly after.

Yes he was our top scorer but that doesn't make him a good pundit nor does it qualify what he has to say as being any way accurate or truthful.

He's only saying some things to appeal to certain folk who devolve their entire footballing opinions from the lower common denominators of certain Facebook fan pages and tabloid columnists.

km79 · 09-06-2017 11:54PM

Have to agree with everyone here
Conor has no inside track anymore
I don't think there is any issue between Aidan o shea and Rochford bar a possible injury/fitness one
He will most likely start imo

Given the forecast it's Likely to be a tight scrappy game with free takers vital
We have cillian ......can't be sure who takes theirs ?
Reminds me of that horrible game in the Hyde few years back when cillian got us over the line .
But sure he wouldn't make their team so they just have a deadly free taker cos that is "all" he does ......

Probably Conroy. Walsh will take 45's.

Mayo have a definite advantage here.

Oldtree · 10-06-2017 12:15AM

Looks like lots of rain on the way for Saturday and Sunday.

The great leveler busy working away.

Wonder could Galway still start Barry McHugh on the day? A fantastic free taker but a bit like Dean Rock he doesn't do a whole lot from play usually. On a wet windy day it wouldn't surprise me.

MaroonAndGreen · 10-06-2017 03:14AM

Connor Mortimer deserves nothing but respect, leading scorer for Mayo

Don't think there's any hope McHugh will start.

Rock contributes a lot from play these days. He didn't in his first seasons with Dublin and McHugh could perhaps take inspiration from him. McHugh needs to bulk up a bit. Deserves to be on the panel but won't be on the 15 this year anyway,

I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see sice start to give us some balance in free takers.

If you think he is a dickhead, fine. If you have a low opinon of the media career he is trying to carve out for himself, fine. (Although it's a bit hypocritical that you don't hold other former Mayo players to the same standards that you seem to hold him to.) If you want to disparage your leading all time championship scorer in such belittling terms, fine. You don't see other counties doing it, but again, fine. It's your own business. But dragging another county into your beef with Conor Mortimer, purely because he lives there, is a more than a bit daft.

Oldtree · 10-06-2017 05:13PM

Does anybody know what happened with the mayo club stand tickets for tomorrow. Havn't got any round our way and nothing for sale. Where did they go?

Say 3,500 season ticket holders for mayo and maby 500 (so I've heard but open to correction) for Galway leaves maby 4,000 stand tickets. Last I heard there was an error on behalf of Galway leading to no tickets for mayo clubs.

I don't know where the stand tickets went. But there was some mix up. I got allocated a ticket earlier in the week as season ticket holder. It was a crap ticket in bottom corner. A couple of days later, I got an email saying there was an error and season ticket holders have now been assigned more central seats. I'm now in a far better seat. So maybe it's something to do that.

MaroonAndGreen · 10-06-2017 06:00PM

Are we expecting a full house in Salthill?

Is there a seating plan somewhere or can ya tell me if I am stuck in the corner too as I fear
Section H row F

Oldtree · 10-06-2017 06:03PM

Am a season ticket too and was put in K. Can't get much less central that that.

Seating plan thanks to mayomick

The stand will be a full house, full of Galway supporters no doubt!

TCDStudent1 · 10-06-2017 06:11PM

from what I've heard it's going to be very close to full but not sold out yet. I know guys very involved in my club couldn't get a stand ticket so don't think it's only Mayo clubs that had an issue (but I'd imagine counties do prioritise home fans).

All our seating group of 10 are in D. Allocated yesterday week

glack · 10-06-2017 09:29PM

I'm not surprised at the lack of stand tickets in Mayo. What's the capacity of the stand? I'd say half those tickets went to Mayo people between season tickets and the you can be sure there was stand tickets for county board officials and players family members. It is an away fixture after all. Galway are well within their rights to keep the rest of the tickets

Audioslaven · 10-06-2017 10:54PM

Well I heard the Galway supporters are well pissed over the number of tickets given to Mayo. I was told 70% of the stand tickets went to Mayo with season ticket holders.
