2015 All Ireland Football Championship - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE IT STOP

ya draw is kind to them. Was a massive chance for Cork to get to final.

Tyrone will smash them in Croke Park again. I actually can’t get wait for us to get a shot at these bastards.

03, 05, 08 and 15.

Certainly, but they have a bye to the semi-finals now and it’s difficult to see Monaghan or Tyrone having enough to beat them.

Monaghan may have the game to beat them but may not have the mentality, and probably won’t have the bench.

Tyrone may have the mentality but not the game.

It’s all beautifully set up for Tyrone this year.

Westmeath, losing Leinster finalistis have played four games in Leinster but they’re not whinging about their workload. Louth, Wexford & Meath wouldn’t be too far off the standard of Tyrone, Armagh and Derry.

Monaghan and Donegal are miles ahead of the rest in Ulster. Beyond that the standard is poor. Its no coincidence that its been the same pairing in the Ulster final three years running for the first time since Down v Cavan in the 1960’s.

In head to head’s between Ulster sides and the much maligned counties of Connacht in this year’s Championship - Connacht are leading 3-1.

The Sligo keeper went to ground a bit early for a few of the goals today.

Even if a match proves to be easy, as Donegal’s match with Armagh did, they have to tailor their training to peak for these matches. Kerry and Cork do not.

Donegal needed four peaks to win Ulster this year.

There’s a reason why Armagh in 2005 and Donegal in 2012 are the only teams to win Ulster in living memory from the preliminary round.

Donegal’s All-Ireland in 2012 really was an outstanding achievement the more you look at it. Cavan, Derry, Tyrone, Down, Kerry, Cork, Mayo. Nobody has ever had a tougher route and come through unscathed.

His kick outs were really poor too. Philly Green(e) was always going to be a tough act to follow.

I’m fairly sure there was a winner last year too but would need to check wiki to be sure.

2005 and 2012 were the only summers where my memory wasn’t completely blacked out from cans of Tuborg.

“‘The Homeliness of Tipperary’
On Saturday Tyrone played a first-ever competitive match in Semple Stadium. It had been our good fortune for the game to be fixed there, giving many Tyrone Gaels a first-ever experience of that special place. We all know the GAA was founded in Thurles. What we now also know is that the true GAA spirit thrives there. Something very simple brought that home to us, the sheer welcomes and enthusiasm we met when virtually every one of us wanted to walk onto and see at first hand that ‘perfect pitch’ after the game. Too-often elsewhere the GAA spectator is treated as an inconvenient commodity/source of revenue. We’re to be shooed, corralled, barred, penned, prevented and exploited. We found out on Saturday that’s not ‘The Semple Way.’ Thank you Tipperary for letting us soak in that privileged place of yours (and ours!) at our ease and our leisure. Others could and should take note!”

Logie wasn’t happy and there was a lot of ill feeling about the way our u21 title was devalued by people in the Tipp camp when we won it fair and square.

That’s incredibly twee.

We? Aren’t you from Armagh and want to be from Italy?

I’m an Italian Tyrone supporter.

He’s a Romanista. Please keep up. :rollseyes:

You don’t have any connection to either of those places

I do.
