He has gone on record as saying if Dublin beat Kerry in the AI semi final and Tyrone were to meet Dublin in the final this Kerry man will be shouting for Tyrone.

Donegal? Like the people. A bit iffy about the defensive style of play- but some amazing talent, worthy of respect come what may. Mayo? Still short of a greater spread of attacking threat and prone, as ever, to let the occasion get the better of them... which is a shame because nobody would begrudge them the win. Tyrone? None of the dark arts so far. Plenty of threat and serious potential (thanks to their fox on the sideline). Dublin? The only real obstacle to their achieving greatness is their losing focus. Terrible for the hill; hope for the chasing pack.
Now play away and decide among yerselves who plays brides maid this year.

So some Galway man told you Donegal should have won in 2014 so that makes it so... Lol will you go away out of that ye were beaten fair and square and were too cocky for your own good.
I'm not sure what the rest of your post is about, some Kerry man is going to shout for Tyrone if they make the final. What's that supposed to tell us? If Kerry don't win it I really couldn't care less who does myself.
Replying To SamOnErrigal: "I have a feeling you might be staying on the quite side for a lot lot longer than you will like. How comes you have missed this great Dublin team that is around at present. Are they not as good as some of the great teams you are on about from the late 90's to 2009. Let me tell you another thing --- only for Mayo and Donegal over the last five years Dublin would be going for SIX IN A ROW. This year is not over yet , no one has won Sam yet. Plenty to look forward to and Sam can still go NORTH EAST WEST OR SOUTH. it's all to play for"
Noone's saying the year is over. I'm just putting the spotlight on Donegal and Mayo. No All-Ireland between them since the '12 final. Mayo no smoking cigar.
