Might be a long shot, but I'm looking for a stand ticket if anyone has excess. I have one ticket, but looking for one for my young fellow. He is a bit small for the terrace. I don't think he would be able to see the match. If I had been in on time, I could have got one of the €5 juvenile tickets. However, at this stage, I think I'd just pay the full price to get him there.

In a similar wayI'm looking for a spare train ticket if anyone has one for sale.

The 13.33 train out of Cbar,not fussed about return time

Got some bizarre replies on here when I thought it was a bit odd that Connacht final last month didn't have extra/special trains. It was clearly an error by Irish rail and for this Sunday they do have extra/special trains for the Mayo v Donegal match as was the case for the match with Dublin last year and past Connacht finals in Salthill.

But the Connacht final was a game between Mayo and Galway in Castlebar.

There is no rail line going from anywhere in Co Galway directly to Castlebar.

One would have to go half way across the country to make the journey.

This game is in Roscommon.

There is a direct rail line between multiple towns in Co Mayo to Roscommon.

Or are you arguing that there should be special trains from the likes of Ballina, Foxford, Westport, Claremorris and Ballyhaunis to Castlebar for a match day?

If you are then I need to remind you that it's 2025, not 1925

P.S I'll take your mention of Mayo v Dublin as an error, you mean Mayo v Donegal.

Always_Running · 14-06-2025 02:37AM

@Fr Tod Umptious plenty of Galway and Mayo supporters aren't living in their counties and it's normal practice with Irish Rail for 20k attendance matches to put on Athlone to Westport extra/special trains for a match in Castlebar,Roscommon or Galway City.

P.S Yes an error which has been amended

If anyone has a spare stand ticket for sale for the Hyde, let me know pls

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 12:00PM

Odd situation today, it's like 95% we either top group or go out. Other outcomes only arise if Cavan win and/or we draw…

A bit like the last game of the league, win and top the group, lose and go out.

Be-Jaysus · 15-06-2025 02:06PM

We can get a result here,

Mayo underrated while Donegal are over-rated by the media,

If Rochford pulls the rabbit out of the hat today, the job is his for keeps next year.,

Donegal by 5

km79 · 15-06-2025 03:02PM

Outnumbered 2:1 at least

Probably 3:1

So much for the Hyde being a second home ground, as some have been saying.

15-06-2025 04:08PM

Mayo spend two minutes holding on to the ball, ponderous passing around the 2 point arch.

Get turned over and it takes Donegal 12 seconds to score.

For f**k sake Mayo.

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 04:10PM

Black card for Donegal ( not sure it was merited) hopefully we can take advantage…

Bocadilloo · 15-06-2025 04:36PM

Standard of this match is atrocious compared to Monaghan Down and matches yesterday.

Reminds me of before new rules came in

15-06-2025 04:41PM

It's going to take a huge effort from Mayo to win this form 3 down at HT.

Donegal had a rake of wides so should be well ahead.

They really need to up the pace of the game.

Personally speaking, I don't think they can.

They look very lethargic out there.

15-06-2025 04:43PM

Back to ponderous lateral play I see. Not only will they nor shoot from scoring positions, but the lack of pace in the forwards is shocking. Carney very sloppy on the ball. Backs keeping us in it at the moment.

happyoutscan · 15-06-2025 05:03PM

Always going backwards. Infuriating.

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 05:09PM

Tyrone looking comfortable so it’s almost certainly win (or draw) or bust for us…

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 05:21PM

GOOOOOOOAL!

Correct.. same auld crap nobody willing to take a shot unless they are unmarked and 10 yards out.

For fork sake why do you pas to a player in a worse position.

Donegal concede a goal and well deserved …..watch for the pulling and dragging from now on.

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 05:23PM

Donegal hit back with incredible 2-pointer😕

we’re out☹️

15-06-2025 05:42PM

We just take too long to score.

15-06-2025 05:44PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123546694#Comment_123546694

Overall I don't think Mayo deserve anything else.

They are just not at the quality needed these days.

If you get hammered by Cavan at home you deserve to go out to a buzzer beater a few weeks later.

New management and a new approach now is what is needed.

And they need to play smarter, twice in a row they have had their season destroyed by not managing the very last kick out of the game.

Arkiema · 15-06-2025 05:47PM

ironically if we just took a little longer to score that last point we'd be in the draw.

Sickened.

It's on players as well. Lots and lots of points in that game when fellas were in scoring positions and visibly afraid to shoot. That's a skill issue. So too is sloppy hand passing and allowing fellas to waltz up the pitch with not a glove laid on them.

Loafing Oaf · 15-06-2025 05:49PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123546707#Comment_123546707

yeah mayo goal really skewed the scoreboard there, Donegal clearly better team over the 70…

Westernview · 15-06-2025 05:56PM

Great effort but ultimately we are lacking the quality needed at this level. But Boland should have been on sooner.

New management will be installed and some younger players will have to be blooded. Another 3 year term beckons.

naughto · 15-06-2025 05:56PM

Was neary injured is that why he went off?
