You're right of course Kingdomboy But having your strongest panel available to ye in the championship while playing Dublin hasn't been of much use either (When you were supposedly taking things far more seriously) In fact you have a better record in the league against Dublin since all this started back in 2011 ??? jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20608 - 07/03/2017 13:38:06 1965011 Link 1 |

Of course I'm right jimbo:-) But ye had a full team out against us last years league final bar jack mac who was on a year out. In fairness Jim Gavin got it right with Dublin, he brought on a load of young lads from his U21 teams and we neglected our youth during the naughties a fact that was hidden by our successful team at the time, our county board at the time were asleep at the wheel, but we've gone a long way to sorting that when we started development squads in 2012, We're still in transition but we're catching up slowly and I believe we'l be back soon under jack O'Connors management.

Kingdom So what if we had a full team? There was National title on offer.. You still couldn't beat Dublin with your full team when you were taking it seriously later on it the year jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20608 - 07/03/2017 15:22:58 1965069 Link 1 |

Hit a nerve? OBC is a competitive comp so it counts. You are not unbeaten. Simple as.

No Fridge You are simply incorrect The record held by Kerry is 34 games unbeaten in competitive football, 19 League games and 15 Championship games Hence those are variables of the current record, and as such the same set of rules apply. So we are actually unbeaten given the context of the current record "simple as" OByrne cup games do not count as competitive games Take it up with the GAA jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20608 - 07/03/2017 21:03:44 1965265 Link 0 |

It's an official GAA competition. Many counties would love to win the OBC. Not arguing with you about the record against Kerry in the 30's and the variables and the different era and modern football is more difficult and the records are probably incorrect back then etc etc etc. You and others say Dublin are unbeaten. They are not unbeaten. They were defeated twice. In competitive competition's. Hence they aren't unbeaten. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2089 - 07/03/2017 21:36:33 1965278 Link 4 |

We got the record anyway and despite a lot going wrong today, were the width of a post away from bringing it into ET, but alas the better team on the day won, zero complaints It was a great league campaign and I couldn't fault our effort, never know, might be good for us moving into the summer ?? jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20608 - 09/04/2017 18:27:18 1977516 Link 0 |

No team will ever beat that record, but I am glad it is put to bed to be honest.
