The Official All-Ireland Senior Football Championship 2013 Thread

Counihan has stepped down

Cork and their notions about being a top football side, firmly crushed tonight, that handy all ireland in 2010 is all they have to their name

Counihan has announced he’s stepping down in his post-match interview.

Did I imagine Jim Gavin in his interview mentioning Cork playing Wexford? :eek:

Fair play to him, he’s put in a serious stint.

The Blame game starting with the langhers, whose fault is it this time? The County Board? Counihan? Frank Murphy? The selectors? the system? the subs? biggest shower of whingers in the country when it comes down to it and it will be a delight when the Dublin hurlers finish them off their notions of glory this year

6 years as manager, was he there as selector before as well?

Had a spell as a selector when Billy Morgan was in charge.

Owes nothing so. Shouldn’t have stayed so long though.

Ye he should have left after the AI win

Sean Cavanagh’s response to Brolly’s comments:

Basically says he knows the rules and was happy to take the yellow to avoid conceding a goal.

Counihan probably stayed on a year or two more than he should. In saying that he won them an All Ireland and not many managers have that on their CV.

Best of luck to him, always came across as a decent skin. Seemed almost too nice for intercounty management at times. His loyalty to some of his old war horses cost him today.

What are Cavan like? Must confess I know little or nothing about them. Consensus seems to be that Kerry will wallop them tomorrow. Kerry have struggled a bit in quarter finals last few years. Lost to Donegal in 2012 and Down in 2010 and made heavy weather of beating Galway in 2008 and Monaghan in 2007.

Cavan is made up mostly of tight fuckers where every penny is a prisioner

What part of Britain is Il Bomber Rudi from, Kev?

Kerry always vulnerable in their first match outside Munster. Great chance for Cavan tomorrow.

Mayo will also dispatch Donegal easily.

Listen lads I am an expert in GAA.Mayo will beat donegal tomorrow, Kerry will win by at least 5 points. Limerick will win the All Ireland. C’mon limerick to fuck.

Your a bit of a tard really,what about phils cheatin in Portugal

Alright tard how are Leitrim going in the football. How is Phil.

Jack McCaffrey is in pole position for Footballer of the Year.

Cian O’Sullivan had an outstanding game.

Dublin were far too good, are far too good and will chew Kerry up and spit them out.
