Costello too.

He rarely starts anyway. Probably not be team that lines out, and not in that shape and probably same applies to Tyrone! So all very speculative.

ProudDUB · 01-09-2018 12:00pm

No way in hell, that team will start. None.

No, Mick Fitz to start instead of COS.

ProudDUB · 01-09-2018 2:11pm

Nope. Cian starts for me. MDMA also. And put Jamesy back where he belongs.

It must be said.

There's no objectivity when he's commentating on Dublin vMayo or Dublin v Kerry. He has his blinkers on on RTE too just turned down a bit.

There's no need objectivity in his commentary, it must be said

What's the demand for tickets like at the moment.

Are tickets beginning to free up. Is it as bad as last year.

Will there be tickets at the match tomorrow if I travel without one

Seemed to alot more around yesterday. Well worth a trip though.

kala85 · 01-09-2018 5:03pm

Not too many tickets left around last year for Mayo vs Dublin.

If they are showing up already looks like there will be some availability for tomorrow

ProudDUB · 01-09-2018 5:42pm

Tickets for sale on Tyrone Gumtree. They appear to be at face value, so I presume it's ok to mention it here. Mods, plz remove, if not.

I was at that game , the win was an anticlimax. Had been so close for the previous 3 years it was almost expected. I think I nearly took a break in 1996 too

The 2011 win was far better IMO

Yeah. I felt very underwhelmed and even a bit embarrassed in '95. :eek: 2011 was special, but personally the 2002 LF win against Kildare felt great as I cried my heart out in the upper Hogan. 7 years is still a long time.:D

S'funny, I was about to get a dig in about a win over Kildare moving a Dub to tears. A dig of the 'cop yerself on' variety. But then I remembered 2011 and Berno's free & Jesus, the relief when it was all over. You could have heard my bum squeaking in outer space. And look at us now. It's hard to comprehend really, isn't it?

I was on the Twitter machine earlier & saw an exchange between 2 former Kilkenny hurlers joking about running out of places/schools/businesses etc to take Liam to. I'd say some of our lads are running into that now...."Ah no Michael Daragh, we're grand thanks. It's the kids annual trip to the Zoo today. Can we leave it 'till next year?"

Ah you couldn't take the piss out of me for that LF win in 2002. So much "local" suffering since '95. I watched the 2011 Dublin - Kildare game in a Kildare pub on a break from work. When Brogan got "that" free, I saw Kildare people slam their fists on the bar, smash glasses and swear never to support the GAA ever again.:D Mad times and your right look at us now.

In Celbridge we're you? Imagine the reaction if you were in actual Kildare proper like...:p

Stoner · 01-09-2018 7:34pm

I remember that 2002 game too. It was great.
Half of Leinster won it between 95 and 2002, with Meath and Kildare being the best of them

What kind of budget is needed for day of tickets? Don't know anything about this game but looks like it would be a great time

Jay sus up for the match off to a terrible start. What the Fu*K was that

ProudDUB · 01-09-2018 9:52pm

Dour lot, the Tyrone crowd. Not finding Charlie's 'anecdotes' funny at all, at all, at all...:D

Its old country. Lots of Dubs, but no interest in GAA, But Kildare GAA is strong.
there. Bought a ticket. Great match and then I fooked off out of it. So long ago.

Bret Hart · 02-09-2018 4:05am

Can't sleep. Nerves getting the best of me. So I've decided to give up and go through the season reviews of our AI wins. On 2015 now. I'll be a nervous wreck on the hill tomorrow. A few pints before should see them calm down.Hopefully it'll work this year.I'll never understand how Jim can keep his emotions in check. The man gives nothing away.

Slattsy · 02-09-2018 8:07am

A band of rain, the wet kind, is sweeping across the country as we speak. I expect it land in Croke Park at approximately 4pm, with up to 1mm of rain possible. Hopefully by that time the game will be dead and buried.

So for you guys in Hill 16, bring a poncho!

That's your am weather update. See you all for the lunchtime bulletin. Stay classy Dublin.

I remember the time when everyone knew a poncho - he was generally a fella with a few stone to lose, had a bushy Ronnie and you'd always want him on your side of an argument D

Jaysis it's a long day, I'm on me toes here for 11.30 just to get out of the house - minor game throws in for 1.00 don't forget...
