Fair play Liam, sadly theres a whole lot of posters on here who will be using this as a stick to beat the Dubs. Remember yous are still a fine team, age is on your side and you were worthy champions.

I agree; though the temptation is there gloating should not come into it. Well done Liam and for the record I don't hate Dublin; I was one of the first on here when they beat Kerry 3 years ago to say well done. I just didn't like the condescending, dismissive arrogance that had crept into some Dublin fans and I hope this result will do Dublin as much good as anyone.

Well played Donegal. The media do Dublin no favours by building them up with hype.

Well done Donegal.

Well deserved victory. Took their chances brilliantly.

Hard luck to our boys. Back to back is elusive!

Well done Donegal I can think of one Donegal woman in Canada who will be very happy right now. Congrats geri if your looking in. I was in two minds on this game all week until this morning. Got the notion that Donegal would win just sorry I only put 20 on them.

After Donegal beat Dublin today, Spillane and Brolly (un-contradicted by O'Rourke) stated their opinion loud and clear - effectively, the worst team had won. They said that 'only two' of the Donegal lads (Murphy and someone else) would be capable of getting on the Dublin team. According to them, Donegal 'ground' out the result and Donegal's win is all down to 'their system' and 'the manager'. That is, dredge up whatever patronising reason you can think of in order to preserve that myth that it's only the Southern teams that have the classy footballers. 'Puke commentating' at its miserable best.

Congrats and well done to Donegal today on their amazing performance. Such skill, dedication and effort from amateur sportsmen has to be applauded.

Some performance. Minors too, so don't know why I enjoyed it so much - could be lean times ahead in Tyrone.

Well done Donegal. Fully deserved.
Enjoy.

Congrats to both teams for one hell of a game. Well done Donegal and hard luck Dublin.

Overall this has to be one of the most enjoyable weekends for football in years. Two fantastic matches with four great teams.
