    It will be a warm up for the 2016 AI final, 2 form teams, just saying.

    Hyde won't be ready unless there is a major improvement in the weather. Players safety has to be the key and if its as bad as last weekend then they will need to change it.

    What about the town of Roscommon being completely booked out?

    Carrick is where it will be if the Hyde is unplayable. Contingency already in place. Why are we discussing this in a god damn Mayo thread.

    The Rossie bus goes where ever it wants Syf & no road block can ever stop it. Not even a Mayo one. You should know that.

    It's funny seeing the Mayo fans having a go at Roscommon, a team who have vastly improved this season and who have also performed better than Mayo this season.
    Their recent loss against Mayo was by no means embarrassing, say like Mayo's loss to Dublin in last year's semi, or the trouncing against Dublin in Castlebar last year.....

    Says a lot about one of the so-called top teams in the country when beating Roscommon is being celebrated almost like an all-Ireland victory, though let's face it, it probably will be the high-point of Mayo's season this year.

    Not sure how much of a go we are having at Roscommon, more at the state of their infrastructure than anything else.

    Most Mayo fans are happy for the win that hopefully kepps us up.

    And any having a go at Roscommon is all in context too.

    They are the unexpected form team of the spring and a number of their fan base were relishing the idea that they could relegate Mayo, which was impossible by themselves as was pointed out to them.

    And as others have pointed out a good spring does not always guarantee a god summer.

    And as I posted earlier they seem to think they pulled off a coup by acquiring the likes of McStay and McHale.

    So overall a win away to Roscommon, dominant throughout the game, is always one to enjoy.

    To be fair . This thread is turning to a rubbish thread with all the crap and tit for tat that's being posted .

    You've 4 posts in GAA, all in the Mayo forum and all looking like a Mayo man pulled your bra strap and made you cry.

    Looking at your support of that troll Mexacanlo I'm guessing we're dealing with the same.

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99146946&postcount=1862


    Facts, as you like to be so anal with, Roscommon expected to win that game sunday, go look at the statements like "We've waited 3 years for this", they expected to relegate Mayo and have played great football but last Sunday didn't turn up.

    And no it won't be the high point of the Mayo season, I won't even explain as I can see its pointless.

    Now go fix that bra.

    Agreed, time to close the flood gates now on the Roscommon game, we seem to have attracted a lot of Roscommon fans over here all of a sudden.


    Will we see B Moran and Durkan start now this weekend? Vaughan can't hold onto his place I'd be thinking.
    With COC on the bench again, no point chancing it with him in that Down game.

    I'd like to see Paddy Durcan starting. I thought he did well when he came on, slotted into his role very easily.

    Ah ya, he has better legs than Vaughan at this stage. The year is long so having a bench of Dillion, Moran (A and Barry), Vaughan alone would be a strong impact bench.

    Pity that no one spotted that Mayo and Monaghan are -12 not +12

    It hard for someone to understand the permutations when such a fundamental error is present.

    This looks more like a typo than anything as the analysis is still sound and it accounts correctly for the -12 scoring difference.

    I would be very disappointed if it's true. His time has come and gone, we need to give new players a proper chance. Not to mention Mortimer has a serious ego that I wouldn't love to see coming back into the fold.

    Tony McEntee trains the Dublin based players during the week, could be fair to say he might see a bit of Mort playing for Parnells while living up in Dublin. He commented after the Roscommon match that we have been lacking a free taker during the league and its cost us.

    That's the only way I could see Mort coming back, as an extra player who is able to kick a pressure free.

    Intriguing if it is true.

    What sort of shape is he in, is he playing much club football ?

    We know we lack forwards, and our half backs are staying back, so......

    But with Cillian coming back and Alan Freeman and Evan Regan capable of taking a free, I'm unsure why he should be brought back rather than letting those guys make their mark. I'd have reservations about his attitude too, as I said. There's a reason Horan didn't go running after him last time.

    What is the origin of these rumours by the way ?

    Just that McEntee is based in Dublin and so is Mortimer ?
