Mayo GAA Discussion - Part 4

Hulk Hands

The comparison was silly. Walsh could be argued as the worst of those three and Mayo sacrificed their best player on Saturday to follow him everywhere. If Walsh jumped into the first row of concrete benches around the edge, Keegan would've hopped in beside him. Hardly conductive to getting easy space and ball

Yeah, didn't take much to find out he's actually a Dub. Best ignored so!

That's a bit harsh, it's just a bit of banter!

I was indeed, but I was more delighted to see him return ;-)

Anybody know anything about a photoshoot today?

Until today I'd no idea of the location of the Elverys Sports warehouse.:D

But some beady eyed work colleagues spotted a Mayo player doing what appeared to a photoshoot.

Is a new jersey due to be launched?

I went down for a gawk but couldn't make out who it was.

Possibly Oisín Mullin.

Not sure how 5m will make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things??

A query I would have is why these works couldn't have commenced sooner while Mac Hale Park lay idle as it will now not be available for use until next year.

I don't think anyone could have predicted how COVID was going to turn out. Also the fundraising plan for this was only started late last year, so the idea of doing this or even the planning was probably only in its infancy in the latter part of 2020.
Also - not sure if laying a pitch would have constituted essential works, so likely no work would have taken place for a large amount of the past 12 months anyway.

I’m guessing the county board wouldn’t be able to afford to purchase the sods?

Wonder what situations the gaa allow counties to get sods from their own company. You would think that with no concerts that there would be capacity for us. The gaa probably want to use it for Parnell park and other Dublin pitches...

New Mayo jersey is out today.

https://www.con-telegraph.ie/2021/03/15/new-mayo-home-jersey-for-2021-launched/

Not crazy about the collar nor the red on the sleeve.

The white stripes on the shoulder are nice.

Nice touch the white collar/rim at the bottom of the sleeves.

Kind of retro look IMO.

Whoever designs kits for O'Neills is like a child with too many crayons. Their jerseys are way too detailed to look good in 99% of cases. They either blatantly rip off other manufacturers soccer jerseys (the last Mayo kit / Man United of a couple of years ago), or make a complete hames of it like in this case.

Hate it
Too much red

I actually think it's ok...better than the previous one anyway.
Like the retro vibe.

Better than the stray red stripe that made its way to the back of the last jersey.

Just the red in the collar putting me off. Like the rest of it to be honest. May grow on me yet.

If lockdown continues any more it will have to literally grow on me!

Ya I;m not sure still, looked at it a few times but its just not nice.

Fowler87

Yeah tend to agree with the consensus here too. Not a great effort by O'neills. The "Mayo Day" version is their best effort in awhile imho - for the one game it was used for!

wirelessdude01

Not an initial fan of the pinstripes on it. Might be nicer in the flesh but it very much has a retro look to it.

HBC08

I definitely liking it more as the day goes on.
The 16/17 jersey and the commemorative Mayo day one are the nicest from the last decade,I'm looking forward to seeing this one in the flesh.

I must be in the minority, I like it.

It'll look better with the white shorts.

Love to see Tom Parsons appointed CEO of the GPA.

Very impressive speaker,has put in a lot of the groundwork required.

Passionate advocate for player welfare and universally liked by all within the GAA.
