Great result by Kerry, to win in Tyrone at any time is hard but doing it to try and keep D1 status was unreal, cheers to the dubs as well!!

Looks like all is not well in Donegal, what a great shame.

Erm, haven't you got more to worry about missdown than Tyrone cuisine?

I said before that Kerry football was finished, well I'm eating my words now, and fair play to them for the great escape. Donegal going down is a big surprise, they have no strength in depth, a few injuries will hurt them badly.

A game of two refs in Ballybofey. Shocking performance from the replacement referee!

Disappointing result & outcome at the end of the day. Well done to both Kerry & Mayo.

Down now to brass tacks.

Donegal didn't get many breaks today, and were a little unlucky with some of the baffling decisions from the replacement referee, but over the course of the campaign, there can be few complaints. The damage was done with the dreadful performance in Castlebar. Hopefully this is the wake up call they need ahead of the championship. Well done to both Mayo and Kerry

i see some people are using the excuse that tyrone had nothing to play for and thats the only reson why kerry stayed up, kerry would have been near the top if they had all the players at the start of the league, won all last 3 games when they had close to a full strength team.

Great excitement for the few teams in div 1 but i'll say it again semi finals for a group of 8 is silly.

We're actually ok about going down to division two, corks last minute goal against us proved the difference after all but as the folks said division two will be a nice wee Change of scenery :))

Why wouldn't it have been allowed? The player who passed it was in the small square also.

Thought Marty Duffy had a great game for Kerry. Gave good protection to Cooper and Donaghy. Even intercepted a first half Tyrone pass. Also managed to blow the game up when Tyrone had a possible chance of getting an equaliser.

Agreed, think of all the exotic locations we get to visit next year, Louth being a highlight
