    In a fit of unusual optimism, and if the lifting of restrictions proceeds I wonder what the chances of a limited number being allowed go to see final are?

    Following on that, and if they were to allow 5,000 attend as seems to be way Brits are headed and as is practise for soccer and rugby in France and elsewhere, how would they decide on allocation?

    Would we PP holders and ST holders be in a limited draw?

    (I would trust that if the above scenario does transpire, that no-one outside of participating counties gets a shot at a ticket. And yes, that includes none for TDs etc, etc.)

    I don't think Cavan would be on for given any of there share of All-Ireland final tickets to PP holders.

    Even if Dublin did lose, I'm sure the Supreme Court would eventually overturn the decision.

    Not a hope lads....remember it is Cavan that Dublin are playing...

    They would hardly pay the petrol to the Courts never mind bring a case.

    I suspect the talk of moving the game to Navan is also a financial consideration. Cavan is much nearer to Navan. More petrol saved! :D

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Apparently overturned after the linesman admitted he was actually a f****ing p***k

    Happy enough to see that card overturned. I got annihilated on the match thread when I said the linesman maybe needed to toughen up. Granted, poor choice of words. Thicker skin required by him maybe. Potentially ruining a lads year for that.

    Spose we will never know what actually happened. Never a red card though in the heat of a match.

    Funnily enough, I was chatting to my brother today about the Dubs. He made the point that he was happy we stayed on for the presentation and celebrations after the final last year and he was shocked at the time the amount of people leaving in dub and Kerry gear. Obviously gutted on the day but we got to witness history, saw Bernard and Connolly lift it for their last time, and we were there for the 5 until the end. Same as the Seamus Darby goal, in 20 years time you could have a million people claiming they were in croke park to see the 5. But we know we stayed on to salute them.

    Also, txt a mate of mine after the Meath game after having a fairly heated argument with him 4 years ago telling him this Dublin team would set and break all kinds of records. He replied and said just cos I'm right doesnt mean I need to be a prick :pac: hes a bull thick Kerry man so not sure he is happy with current events.

    Anyway, that's my ramble. I'll leave ye to it.

    Sure same as me staying behind to clap ye off during the AIQF 2009. Though, I've not been as magnanimous since. :)

    Tbf, last year reminded me a bit about 2015, you couldn't really be bitter about it from a Kerry pov, you were never winning it.

    Closest I ever came to leaving a game. At that game was felt mortified and fed up sick of Kerry. I remember thinking, they play a different sport to Dublin. And I always stay until the end of games.


    Something that is annoying me about the turning points between Dublin v Kerry since the 70's and 80's how long were the gaps between not winning/losing against the Kingdom exactly?

    Was that league draw (Parnell Park) between Dublin and Kerry in 2009 the first time Dublin did not lose to in league or championship to Kerry since the 70's or 80's? How long was the wait exactly?

    When exactly was the first time Dublin beat Kerry in League or championship since the 70's/80's was it 2010 league game in Kerry? And how long was the wait?

    Or has everything in my mind become so scrambled I have forgotten the key events?

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Thats because some people believe that Cork's titles were down to hard work and natural talent while Dublin's are down solely to money.

    We know that's nonsense. But if it helps them cope with Dublin's dominance then so be it

    Fully agreed. I was sick to death of Cork winning every year and was cheering you on. Would love to see someone else win it now. Pity it can't be a mixture of winners instead of one team dominating followed by another doing the same.

    Yeah it would be nice to see two competitive teams pity one dipped while the other went the other way. I can't remember which year it was but I remember roaring and cursing at the telly after Dublin ladies collapsed v the Cork ladies.
    The Dubs were miles ahead. Might even have happened a couple of times!

    First thought was they were like the 00's Dubs men's team, flakey as hell.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Two years in a row, if my flakey memory is correct. I remember at the time thinking that they'd never make it, there was just something wrong in the minds of all Dublin teams.

    They lost a big lead to Cork through sheer head staggers. Mad aimless kick outs which basically set up a siege. Remember another year on Canal end with daughter in 200s when they were beaten by a last ditch goal (Cora Staunton?) by Mayo.

    Love watching them and they showed great heart yesterday, but get the impression that they coming back to a pack of very good teams including Armagh and a resurgent Cork and Sinead will be a massive loss in final. Equivalent to 4/5 points imho.

    But we’ll be back on our home pitch of Croker, that alone adds the 4/5 points back.... ;-)

    2009 final was the only ladies final I was at. And we absolutely had a meltdown that day. After the men's QF earlier on in the year I basically figured I would never see us win an AI.

    Mc kenna indeed seems to pop up in different media outlets to drone on and on about the big bad dubs .It appears to be his mission in life to make everyone aware how unfair it is that the Dubs are winning .Mind you I love winning and I love the idea he and his buddies are fuming about us winning .

    Haha I gave up, even facts get ignored. Took them ages to concede partly Kildare / Meath's fault who went backwards. Plus there was another who tried claim Micko did not bring in imports because they lived and worked there. But I pointed out Karl got his job after he left Kerry to join his dad. They did not like that!:D
