    I just can’t get excited about the game for a few reasons . Mainly the loss of Cillian :(

    Same as that, but it's COVID that's doing it for me.

    Two years of disjointed or Frankenstein league and straight knock out championship, with little or no fans.

    Can't wait for it to get back to normal.

    Very best of luck to the Mayo team today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,980 ✭✭✭Coillte_Bhoy


    Mayo 1/100, dont recall ever seeing odds like that before. Mayo -15 is only evens too.

    Is Peter Naughton starting for Sligo?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,635 ✭✭✭✭km79


    We can win this by as much as we want
    Complete mismatch
    No injuries is the outcome we need now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,635 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Division 4 team
    High ball in
    Crossbar hit

    Unforgivable if we concede to these


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,693 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    A glorified training session....let's hope the forwards can rack up a few scores and boost confidence.

    Hennelly having to wear his jersey inside out is the main worry so far

    Couldn't we brought the alternative kit jersey for him.

    Great to see Darren McHale having such a good first half


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,132 ✭✭✭Barlett


    What a waste of time for both Sligo and Mayo. This year, the GAA really could’ve tried something different, but instead we’re left with half a league & half a championship both of which are awful

    It’s the first game of the championship, a little early to be passing judgement

    Was a golden opportunity to try a combined league/chsip format but no surprise they failed to grasp it

    It's panning pout exactly as expected as will most lopsided games in the cship

    Sure knockout was awful last year too , we were glad of it at the time but having half a league and half a championship is literally the worst format they could’ve chosen for this summer. Not to mention Sligo getting one championship match in two years - how are they meant to progress?

    At least this should put the final nail in the coffin of the idea that a knockout championship was better .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,287 ✭✭✭seligehgit


    Couldn't ask for anymore than that.

    Paddy Durcan and Lee Keegan are playing as well as ever.

    Darren McHale a huge positive.

    Ryan O Donoghue's free taking was very good as expected.

    Is the Sligo goalkeeper any relation of T.J. Kilgallon?

    Niall Murphy was excellent for Sligo.Top player.

    He's Kilgallon not Kilgannon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,892 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red

    Both are Kilgallon, autocorrect I’d imagine

    TJ's lads play for St. Marys in Sligo Town, the Sligo keeper is from St. Farnans.

    Hard to believe that Peter Naughton can't get a game for sligo. I'd have thought he'd be considered as good / better than Darren McHale from a knockmore point of view

    Can't work that one out.:confused:

    One of the best young forwards in recent years ( in the Mayo club championship ) can't get any game time on a Sligo team that finished bottom of division 4.

    No offence meant to the Yeats county.

    I'd have him at the least the equal of Darren McHale.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,224 ✭✭✭charolais0153


    Full back line looked dodgy at times yesterday. One of best thing about game yesterday was no 50 so hennelly wasn't allowed come halfway up the field:rolleyes: :D

    Some players shine at club but can’t cut it at county. There have been a few examples over the years.
    And no offence intended to Sligo either but if he couldn’t get game time yesterday then he wasn’t going to get any game time for Mayo this year either.
