The Battle for Sam 2009

Anyone watching deferred coverage of the Cavan Fermanagh game? Enjoyable tit for tat affair.
Low scoring but both teams pumping the ball into the forwards making it more exciting than the usual handpassing shite.

Im on record here as not much of a Cork football fan. Softening a bit towards them since Counihan took over I must say.

I think 2/1 to beat Kerry today is stand out value. A very big side with plenty of experience. The U21s won the AI and I dont think any of them are starting so there appears to be strength in depth. Confidence should be high after a decent league campaign also, albeit in Div 2.

Just toddling off to Croker now sincering hoping for a quality game laced with several random punch ups and acts of violence.

Just backed Kerry at 7/4 betting in running on betfair. could be good value yet

Back to 2 now. Ah boy dara

Gooch having a nightmare. 3 wides already and now a missed penalty.

Gooch is a shite pen taker, dunno why he keeps getting them.

What is Alan Quirkes deal jumping up and down like a lepjack waving wide every time a shot is taken at goal? Goalies are odd folk, but Quirke is odder than most.

Cork should have Kerry buried here, cant believe they’ve allowed Kerry get to 2 points of them. Even if Kerry lose this I dont think Jack O Connor will be too perturbed.

Back to a point now…

Shocking miss by n murphy.

Astonishing by Cooper. Having a shite game, yet still kicks that off one leg with 4 lads hanging off him.

Some score by the gooch with 2 cork lads hanging off him. All level now. Come on my 7/4:D

A mention to Maurice Deegan here, great exhibition of refereeing.

How the fook did cork ever allow gooch to get that shot in

Super score alright. I can’t believe Cork have let them off the hook here. Will be some blow if they lose it.

Fuck you Moran you greedy cunt. A man inside him

Spot on, as I said earlier Cork should have this game dead and buried. Moran should have played the man in there instead of going for glory.

45 for cork to win it.

Never a 45 for me.

O Neill will kick this, great free taker.

Sheehan to kick ofr extra time, huge pressure again, bigger than on O Neill
