In 2004 Limerick probably gave Kerry their hardest test .
And Cork in 2010

09 also. Only for Marty Duffy buying the Gooches nonsense and Counihan allowing Miskella to be taken out of the game Cork had 09 as well. That was the worst defeat in Corks history for me.
And that was, arguably, Kerrys strongest ever squad.
Miskella should have been banned for the final.
Tadhg “Tadgh” Kennelly should have been forced to do an Irish jig off the pitch after 5 seconds of that final.

He is the ultimate langer
.Dubs tried to get him far up the field by putting connolly into full forward in all ireland final but he took off on a run and ended scoring a cracking goal…he gets away with some pulling and dragging off the ball in fairness to him…don’t hate the player, hate the game…
Sold out for Saturday yet.
I cannot wait for Armagh-Tyrone. Cannot wait.

Are all 4 counties getting Hill 16 tickets ??
+1.

An Ulster man making excuses.
Ya, i’d take alot of notice.
I hope so. Generally I support other counties being kept off the Hill when Dublin are playing, but I make an exception for knowledgeable supporters of Ulster teams, which is all of those teams’ supporters.

Knowledgable about cider ?
Tomas O’Se is firmly of the opinion that Ulster teams have a much harder route than Kerry.
I still think they’ll have too much for Down in Omagh this Sunday, but it’ll be some journey for either to win an Ulster Championship. Like, I played in a very good Kerry team but we’d have struggled to put together back-to-back titles if we were playing in Ulster. I have so much respect for Ulster teams because of what they have to do just to win that provincial medal.
For Kerry, with respect to all the others (and Limerick, in fairness, were right up there for a couple of years), it generally comes down to beating Cork. But for Tyrone or Down to win Ulster this year, they’ll have to do the equivalent of that four times!
Ulster counties have the most knowledgeable Gaelic football followers in Ireland. Even their female followers tend to be more knowledgeable than the average male supporter of a non-Ulster county.
