    I'd say Roddy Collins could even manage this team to 10 in a row

    Missus brown could do the job in the current clown car situation that the gaa has brought about

    The lack of objectivity from the commentators was the worse I've ever seen. Their tone when Dublin scored to when Mayo scored was sickening, they should be ashamed. Dublin were lucky to be a few points ahead at the end, it it were close the officials would defiantly found a way to get Mayo over the line. Mayo players falling over and getting free kicks, Mayo player boxed a Dublin player in the back of the head near the end when he was on the ground "it's not as bad as it looks " the commentator says.

    Even Cluxton is mortified to be a participant in such a charade.

    How do you know that?
    Or are you spoofing?

    I’d have some respect for the dubs if they admitted publicly that the whole championship is a farce now due to the financial doping

    The true blue who was in Parnell Park and below in Tralee and sold tickets, I call them the Ronny Drew generation, they are ashamed of what is happening and whilst they'll celebrate tonight they would not begrudge Mayo. They are in the minority now replaced by the prawn sandwich brigade, the same people who will hop on anything successful, most are new Liverpool fans at the moment but have City shirts just incase.

    Those two runs that Davey Byrne made in the last five minutes were incredible. Phenomenal stuff.

    Cluxton didn't continue on from his opening gambit. It should have continued. Thanks to AIG and their 1 million per year donation. Thanks to vodafone for their 6 million donation before that. Thanks to Aer Lingus, ballygowan, mitsubishi, energise sport, the gibson hotel.........................and all our lengthy list of sponsors. Thanks to the GAA and all taxpayers for paying for our home stadium Croke Park and last but not least, thanks to Bertie Ahern for the 30 million used to develop this squad.

    The only thing sadder than watching Dublin win is listening to all the pathetic crying every year

    He simply must know that Jim gavin admitted it in private but it’s up to him as “captain” to say it openly

    There'll be an asterisk beside this win, Sligo were in with a shout until Covid.

    Forget about 2002, this is their real missed oppurtunity.

    And if you think the last six All Ireland's mean anything to anyone outside of Dublin then you're sadly mistaken too. An asterisk next to each one of them as far as the other 31 counties are concerned.

    Absolute crap, what's the asterisk ?, I'm not from Dublin, but, they're a great team, Mayo had their chances over the years but bottled it everytime, Kerry were also close, can't stand all the whining about the Dublin dominance, it's time for the other teams to step up.

    Brings the split closer.

    The split would result in the two teams with the largest population bases

    You want to watch a North Dublin vs South Dublin AI final?

    Jim Gavin probably hoping the Dubs would lose today to make him look good.

    Sure now Farrell has done the job at a canter, doesn't look great for Gavin does it?

    If they got the same help as Dublin did to win the oul match they would be able to do as you request.

    That Scully lad is a disgrace.

    O Connor comes in with an open hand hitting the ball and Scully goes down like he was shot.

    Must kill the rest of the country that they cannot string out an equally skillful and fit team to beat them.

    If you think any Dub gives one shíte what the rest of the Country thinks you're sadly mistaken.

    They were in the wilderness between 1995 and 2011 and now all the culchies are up in arms because they are dominant having put together the best squad of all time. LOL

    I doubt yee do care in general, but deep down yee know yee havent won fairly since the 90s

    Yeah just step up and get allocated 15 million more than everyone else, plus crazy sponsorship deals, get to play all their games at home, have other natural advantages such as population. And the volunteers too, dont forget about those volunteers.

    Step up Leitrim!

    People's comments about Stephen Cluxton shows how little they know about him.He has been like this all through his career. The greatest goalkeeper
    in the history of Gaelic Football.
    I am not from Dublin.
