I’d say he will do about as well as his aul comrade in pontificating Colm O Rourke did.

Fair play to him for coming in off the ditch all the same.

The new rule changes bringing another out of the woodwork.

Would miss Joe on the last two podcasts. Banville is a character, but Fanning the wrong man to interview him. Boring.

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy has a lovely cut off joe and blackrock college …last few minutes of today’s show

Joe was gas in the Micko pod where he actually admitted to making up stories or robbing other lads stories. Going as far as to say one of his muckers called him out once when Joe was telling a yarn back to him, with Joe as the protagonist, when in fact it was me mans story. Says Joe, its the way I tell em.

Brolly moaning about McIlroy’s win. “Some bloke putting a ball in a hole. I don’t care”. Well Joe, most people don’t care about Derry football or passing a ball around like the Harlem Globe Trotters before punching it over a bar.

Yes but the entire sporting world is ramming Derry football down your throat. Thankfully. Rory would beat it into you.

Joe getting the hang of this clickbait thing

Surely this is completely made up?

Maybe I’ll do Jimmy McGuinness a turn, maybe I’ll do Donegal a turn.

After all, let me just remind listeners - but the 2012 final, who was it who set the ball rolling on Mayo’s cynical fouling?

I got on Pat Kenny on the Wednesday morning - “25 times they pulled down a Dublin player in the semi-final. It was missed in the euphoria of their victory and if they’re allowed to persist with this - it’s clearly systematic - they will beat Donegal because Donegal will be disrupted and not be able to find any rhythm.”

Big challenge for the officials. We’d six minutes on Pat Kenny.

I was no sooner off Pat Kenny than I got a phone call from Pat McEnaney, the famous referee, who was head of the referees’ association.

He goes, ‘Bud, Jaysis we hadn’t noticed that. I’m having a look at that video now, I’ll be telling the boys about that.’

First two pull-downs? Yellow card, yellow card. The rest is history.

Jimmy McGuinness did say, ‘I owe you a pint.’ Which I never got!

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: good oul Joe. A dog with his mallet up his hole could see what mayo were doing with the fouling. I doubt Pat McEneany ever used the word Bud in his life

That sounds legit to me.

I watched the first few minutes to see the two tackles he was on about. Both neck high tackles and Keegan was lucky not to get a red never mind a yellow.

Countries.

But the genius that is @maroonandwhite has told us “Dublin “ Joe gave every decision he ever could to Dublin !
How could a man in the pocket of the big house miss 25 pull downs on Dublin players by the Mayoites ??

It was that Mayo v Dublin game in 2012 that was the genesis of the Black Card and not Sean Cavanagh v Monaghan in 2013.

It was voted in at Congress 2013 to start in 2014.

I think originally the black card recipient went off and stayed off for the remainder of the game but could be replaced. I remember playing an U21 Football game that spring of 2014 and we were unfortunate enough to pick up two black cards in the first half and had no subs so had to play the entire second half with 13. Unlike the Tipp minor hurlers, we didn’t quite have the same resolve and proceeded to be absolutely hammered.
