All Ireland Senior Football Championship Final 2020 Mayo v Dublin MOD NOTE POST #1

seligehgit

Mod Note:
This thread is only for discussing the SFC Final. It's not to be used to discuss Dublin's dominance of the football championship or any changes in the GAA as a result. There are two threads for these topics:
Changes in the GAA
The Dominance of Dublin GAA

Also please ensure you read the charter before posting. Specifically the part about abuse and trolling. Abuse of other posters, players (regardless of what they do or have done), managers, referees etc. is not permitted and will be sanctioned. Abuse of players includes, but is not limited to, terms like thug, scum(bag), dirtbag, rat etc. So if you engage in abuse of anyone before, during or after the match and get sanctioned, you have absolutely no excuse.

Please report any posts that cross the line and a mod will get to it in time. This thread is generally exceptionally busy during the game and mods are generally watching it so it may take a while to action some posts.

The GAA championship comes to a climax today in Croke Park at 17.00 when Dublin will be aiming for a 6 in row.

Can Mayo end 69 years of heartbreak?

Let's all sit back and hopefully enjoy a competitive contest in the year that was marked by Covid 19.

A massive thank you to the players not just today but throughout this long year for bringing us so much joy and entertainment.

Mayo v Dublin Venue: Croke Park @ 17.00

He’s a fûcking brilliant dude.

No but it sounds like I touched a nerve with you there with my critique. Why would I expect him to be concerned, hes hardly on boards at this moment in time?

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.

Have they Leinster shirts too..??

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.

"Bottled" is such a bull**** and insulting thing to say

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.

That was a box? Wow

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!

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

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.

I’m delighted, I’m out having a beer celebrating the greatest team ever. For the offended “neutral” I feel for ya, not. Might even have a Midleton to celebrate.

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

Con O’Callaghan should go to hurling now. Go out and prove you’re the best in the country and try win Dublin a hurling All-Ireland.

Go and do a Teddy Mac on it boy...

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?

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?

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.

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.

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

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

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
