Mayo GAA Discussion

Not saying its correct or not but the CT has shown itself to be a not reliable source for near on a decade now.

How can thee be a competitive match without a referees report or a decision made before receiving the referee report

shower of spoofers on that podcast. Only discovered there was a club championship this year. Ah ref is the only podcast worth listening to 😀

Even more bizare in the findings this article states that the referee admited that on seeing the footage that he wrongly signaled a 2 pointer when it should have being a 1 pointer, the CC then ruled that the final scoe as right

Yes, that's my understanding too. It wasn't an issue with the ref adding up the scores incorrectly.

He awarded a 2 pointer and recorded it as such, so the score was correct from that perspective which is what the rule covers.

It's very hard on HollyCarra, but as you say, if every ref mistake led to replays, we'd quickly become mired in constant appeals and replays and competitions becoming a farce

@PARlance tough one to take yesterday, ye just fell apart.

Knockmore made hard work of Ballintubber

when’s the draw, would love a Crossmolina Westport final. Cross can’t get ballina in the semi

Knockmore V Ballina semi. Don't think I can face losing to them for a third year in a row

You're not causing offense but I would say you're showing a complete ignorance of this year's club championship. Breaffy should have been beaten in all three of their group games and showed plenty of character to get out of the group. Character was unfortunately the only thing that got them out of the group because it certainly wasn't the football that got them out.

You think Breaffy not winning a Moclair might seep into Mayo's mentality.... The collective psyche... Drop them all so, let's get back to winning Sam every few years.

I didn't say you are ignorant, but you clearly don't understand the meaning of ignorance, that being a lack of knowledge or information. I would respect your opinion if you had seen Breaffy's games in the championship and I'll throw in the league final as well.

Breaffy have not been playing good football this year, it has been dire at times. They beat Crossmolina in the league final, a game where they were second best. They drew with Aghamore and Castlebar in games they probably should have lost, they showed great character to pull back Belmullet in the second half. This isn't just my opinion, it's also the opinion of people who have been to games, journalists etc.

I wouldn't argue with anyone who said they're not playing good enough football. Re the collapse yesterday, it was a collapse of epic proportions... You seem to have missed my post earlier (which is hard, seeing as you replied to it) where I said "never witnessed such a collapse ever before, diabolical stuff". Breaffy completely switched off and were like a team who hadn't played football before, on the other hand, Westport threw all caution to the wind and were extremely good.

There are barstool experts all over the county, grown men fascinated and obesessed with one of our county players in particular. Just like there are barstool experts all over the country when Mayo lose, grown men similarly obsessed with one individual. Your inference that Mayo managers should question including Breaffy players belongs at the bar in my opinion.

Should we ditch Paddy Durcan and Mitchels players because they can't get out of the group stages, a county town not being able to get out of a group, surely they're mentally fragile?... Should we not look at any young lads from Claremorris because they can't get out of the group. Do we wait until these young lads prove something with their club before they get looked at? Do we not look at the likes of Kuba, a rare scoring forward, because they couldn't beat Ballina?

None of the Mayo squad have won Sam, should we just ditch them all. You'll struggle to field a County team if you hold all players or clubs to the standard you're holding Breaffy to.

@Westernview I think that's a terrible take. Both Ballina & Crossmolina won All Irelands and dug out some serious games. Flipping your rationale, they have the winning mentality that Breaffy don't but it didn't map out to them being able to close the deal for Mayo

was at the Crossmolina game, if you can call it that. We left before the end to beat the traffic which my dad never does…first time seeing young Kobe in the flesh, wow…

Heaven and earth should be moved to keep him playing football in Mayo.
He should be in the senior set up at the earliest but most sensible opportunity!

If we leave it too late we may never see him again

You reckon the Aussies might be looking to poach him? Not sure he's exactly their type of specimen, yet anyway…
