    See some twat has put it up on twitter.

    To be fair, the " twatiest" thing was putting it on Tik Tok in the first place. Juvenile. Not sure it should cost him his place in the panel though.

    When will team be out

    A lot of Galway supporters on various forms are writing down Galway's chances and talking up Mayo. I sincerely hope that the Mayo Team and Management don't fall for it. Dick Clerkin in Irish Independent wrote" Complacency is a sporting cancer that manifests itself in the physical contests" Galway played poorly in Tuam but they still scored 17 points. Galway played very well against Dublin the following Sunday (Shay Walsh came on as a sub that day) and Paul Conroy had a great game. Mayo played very well against Roscommon but in the first half they kicked eight wides, when they were on top, they will have to take their scores against Galway. Galway will be fired up for this game, if Mayo are to win they will have to be ready for a lot of intensity from Galway. Comer may also be ready for action. Conditions (wind and rain) and venue will also suit Galway. It is a 50/50 game on Sunday.

    How do you mention him being a twat and nothing about the actual guy who made and shared a joke that distasteful? You may call every single person who's shared it on WhatsApp twats also, bar the actual offender obviously

    Maybe he doesn't want the possibility of getting a Yellow for abuse/uncivil ?
    There are many ways you can get your point across without calling players idiots/morons etc

    Not necessarily the reason.
    Just a thought.

    Video of his post doing the rounds in WhatsApp groups all day. Distasteful joke regarding underage girls which mayo are right to throw the book at him.

    he never mentioned Girls, he could be on about Boys for all we know.

    So much for being dropped ehh.

    Hearing rumours as well that Tommy P is listed in the subs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,705 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Some talk on the podcasts that Conroy could be replaced by Carr. Not sure I’d agree with that. I’d imagine we’ll see one change to that team at least

    Would be very unfair on conroy, not like Carr has shone on his appearances although I think he's a better option than Darren coen

    Ya it definitely would conroy has done no wrong

    Not necessarily his fault and I say it as a big fan of his, but the Roscommon game largely passed him by. He looks a great prospect though so worth sticking with him as a starter I think.

    I think he was targeted a lot more in the rossies game as he had two very good games before that so they where on his shoelaces.
    Its great that we have this problem of forwards unlike other yrs

    As a complete neutral, I cant see anything other than a Mayo win on Sunday. Comer is out btw. But even with him in I'd expect Mayo to win and win comfortably enough. Probably only be the few points in it at the end but Mayo will get the job done for me.

    Completely different FB line for Galway and keeper so they have learned there. Also changes in the forward lines. They won't be anywhere near as bad as the league. Walsh and Conroy 2 quality players.
    Thats probably our strongest 15 with a serious amount of quality on the bench.
    Hopefully see AOS in FF again.
    Conroy has done nothing wrong so can't see any reason he won't start.

    Need a strong start like in the league and against Rossies. Should be a cracker

    See Galway are back to Bernie again. He really is a shocking goalkeeper. Total liability.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,402 ✭✭✭naughto


    I didn't realise the galway thread is a mixture of hurling and football that's a proper mess

    The perils of being a dual county with ambitions of winning 2 Senior All Irelands per year. As St. Patrick of Flynn said, you should try it sometime. :)

    He had a real nightmare start to the championship qualifier last year.

    I reckon there will be a very high press on both goalkeepers kickouts on Sunday.

    David Clarke kickouts will definitely be targeted on Sunday.Hopefully same will stand up to scrutiny.

    In fairness to Conroy, he will go for a score when he can and very rarely gives the ball away. He is very efficient when in possession. He played more out from goal tracking back in second half and this is why he never got on the ball as much. I hope he is not replaced as he is a real threat when he gets the ball close to goal.

    Sean Hurson of Tyrone is the man in the middle,tends to be a tad on the fussy side.

    Met Eireann indicating there will be a small window of dry conditions tomorrow afternoon sandwiched between spells of rain.

    Where would be without a wind blowing down the pitch in Salthill?

    Whistle happy doesn't do him justice. Pulls for everything. Zero flow to games that he officiates at.

    Yeah, would be a little concerned if there's any niggle in the game. Overly fussy refereeing tends to make that type of thing worse, imo.

    Hundred percent.

    Discipline is essential too,lack of same has cost us dearly in past clashes with Galway.

    He is as fussy as an old hen.
    You would wonder where he got it from. Tyrone club football isn`t exactly a gentleman`s excuse me.
