Should Mayo warm up at the hill to mix things up? centerfield (Mayo) - Posts: 360 - 13/09/2016 13:03:52 1913561 Link 0 |
If ticket allocation has been done fairly with no favouritism shown, then the hill will be split 50/50 and Mayo would have every right to warm up in front of their own fans. The "it's decided alphabetically" myth was dispelled on another thread so I see no reason why Dublin are automatically entitled to warm up in front of the hill. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 4981 - 13/09/2016 13:32:57 1913598 Link 0 |
No we shouldn't. Anyway team's are told now which end they are designated. The Mayo backroom team will have the drills setup and marked out. All focus should and will be on the game ahead not the sideshows. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11219 - 13/09/2016 13:34:53 1913600 Link 1 |

No. It will be an unnecessary distraction and they need to be fully tuned in to what they're doing if they are to have any hope. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9073 - 13/09/2016 14:51:18 1913673 Link 0 |

I couldn't give a s*it where they warm up. It's immaterial. I'd say Gavin and the l;ads will be totally focussed on the job, It actually might be a disadvantage to mayo to warm up in front of the Hill though. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 13/09/2016 15:52:52 1913716 Link 0 |

That wasn't an All Ireland final. It'll be a distraction to themselves and themselves only if they're stupid enough to do it this Sunday. This is a different Dublin team that's focused one one thing and one thing only, winning Sam Maguire. Let Mayo focus on where they want to warm up. More fool them if they head for the Hill.

while I think it is irrelevant where the teams warm up ...... however the GAA won't do anything to upset Dublin public, let them warm up where they want and ensure the Dubs get all the cheapest tickets on final day and make the country bumpkins pay double for theirs. I admire hugely the work of this dublin team and their gracious manager jim gavin, unfortunately the same cannot be said of the vast majority of their jonny come lately supporters, expect the throw in to be around 345 by the time all the dubs finally get in to croke park...........the early game on sky's super sunday should be over by then............ totalrecall (Leitrim) - Posts: 905 - 13/09/2016 16:15:49 1913734 Link 3 |
I think the best thing Dublin could do in that case is just warm up on the opposite side if Mayo took the end end(not that I think they will go to the hill end anyway) GameOfTyrones (Tyrone) - Posts: 469 - 13/09/2016 16:17:23 1913736 Link 0 |

The sheer prejudice and ignorance evident in a post like this is utterly jaw-dropping. It's hard to believe that in a so-called educated country like Ireland that people can spew such stuff. Depressing.

Pat gilroy got them really focused Gavin enhanced it then.cant see anything like that happening again but shar b bit craic was at that game in question when it happened. Pillar lost that game moved Shane Ryan from midfield for second half he was flying in first half was taken off then.the dubs where in control but felt that move hobbled them

There's a big difference in that Dublin team and this one I think you'll agree. Messing around before the game has even started and not being focused could result in you getting your arse handed to you with this Dublin team. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9073 - 13/09/2016 16:28:57 1913750 Link 0 |
Don't bother. The last thing Mayo players need, is, Dublin fans in the Hill jeering and whistling at them as they go through their warm up routine. Joe_Bloggs (Tipperary) - Posts: 186 - 13/09/2016 16:50:50 1913763 Link 0 |
