2020 All Ireland Senior Football Championship.Blame the dubs

What would fix it?

The “season” needs to be shortened for a start.

Split Dublin into 8.

Shorter season.

Make Dublin play outside Croke Park.

Shorter pre season.

Cut off all funding to Dublin.

Play Provincials and then reset for an Open Draw Championship.

Less substitutions.

Advance Mark only inside the 21.

Kneecap Brian Fenton.

So it’s a hobby?

Sad to see the likes of @padjo take it so seriously

Lads looking to stop funding going to kids getting some exercise because one team is too good at a hobby. That’s the small minded mentality on display.

He’s an absolute hero.

Interesting McCaffrey and Brogan spent more time talking about 2012 and 2014 and on where it went wrong in those years than any of the AI’s they won.

Nothing unusual there

Ah, don’t be sad mate, it’s only sport. McCaffery is 100% right on this

I met Mikey sheehy wan night in a pub in Manchester. He’d had a few pints, but I had a few more with him. He talked far more about the one he lost than the eight (iirc?) he won. I thought it a bit strange when thinking about it the next day, but just figured it’s what the greats do.

I take issue with the likes of Murchan claiming to have 4 All Ireland medals

As therapy for all the Dub haters out there I propose rte replace the clips of people looking thoughtful before the 6 o clock news with the following highlights reel.

  1. Mikey Sheehy making a cunt of Paddy Cullen.
  2. Kevin Foleys last minute goal in 1991
  3. Mugsy making mugs of about 4 Dubs in 2005.
  4. Ciaran MacDonald stroking the winner over in 2006.
  5. Maurice Fitz bending the sideline ball over in 2001

All done to a voiceover of Ewan McKenna reading quotes from The Blue Book while pissing himself laughing

The country will be a better place for it.

Why?

:laughing:

As he said last night, for the first one he was up in the stats box helping those guys and wasn’t even togged and didn’t play a minute that year. I think its OK maybe for a lad who only has that to count it as a medal but once you are using it to count towards a higher total then it shouldn’t count.

Not like he goes around claiming it himself though? I’d be fairly sure he knows the difference between the one he got in the stats box and the one he scored the crucial goal in

Ray Cosgrove hitting the post vs Armagh. Maybe 2’08 as a guess

He was asked last night how many he had and said “Four”.

Thats claiming it.

Fair enough.

Does Con have 5? Played about 5 minutes in the championship in 2016 but did make the 26 for the final.

I only learned today that Con actually togged out with the Dublin hurlers under Ger Cunningham in 2015 as a 19 year old.
