Moran was fairly tetchy in that press conference. Understand that's not the question you want to hear after getting to an AI final, but to say your county has been starved the past four or five years - starved how? Of All-Ireland finals? Of Connacht finals? There's many counties that haven't been in All-Ireland finals for decades, or haven't won their provincial in ages. That's what being starved is.

To all you Louth supporters out there, stay the course, what a year ye have had. What a journey, i know ye are all down and sore right now. I remember as a young Mayo lad back in 1993, fierce confident, we get to another AI after 1989, and we got absolutely hammered by Cork in that Semi final. And Derry beats Cork a few weeks later comfortably. This reminds me a lot of us back then for you guys. I remember fighting for our lives down in division three. Those were dark days in Mayo football and as a supporter you do think, things are hopeless. Keep going, keep building and keep fighting, ye are not that far off the mark. Someone in Leinster needs to give it to the Dubs these next few years. Also as a Mayo supporter, moving forward like we don't need reminding, we have won absolutely nothing. We got to where we need to be that's all. Was very proud of our lads today, we played well all over the field. Will we be good enough the next day, only time will tell? To beat Kerry or Dublin we got to be 10-15% better than we were today and that's going to take one hell of an effort!!

Kerry = Argentina

But he's right. The pundits tipped Meath. The pundits tipped Louth and if Kerry win today absolutely nobody will think Mayo have a chance so supporters will have no impact on team preparation.

Hard luck Louth. We just killed the game in the third quarter. Hard to know what lies ahead for us. We've been in this position many times before…no good unless we seal the deal now. Been a great season for Louth. All the best next year. Yer fans were brilliant today.

Huge and special praise for Roscommon women footballers.

U16s and U18s girls into All-Ireland finals and today the Intermediate team has reach the Croke Park final. Well done to all involved.

When you add in male Connacht titles with Roscommon Seniors,U20s,U17s and Brigids,Strokestown. Not half bad for county of our size and resources

A real lucky win for Kerry as they were against Tyrone also. Mayo every right to fancy themselves and honour the 25th anniversary of the last Connacht success.

Replying To D.Hyde:  "This Mayo team and the way they are playing is completely different to the Mayo team that we played in April."
Played better yesterday however match stats for Mayo v Cork was almost a carbon copy v Roscommon. The difference was the shooting efficiency with Cork' and Roscommon.

Andy isn't managing other counties.

Replying To JimB1991:  "How was the hot favourites tag for Kerry ridiculous?
Kerry were the hot favourites and rightly so."
Really?
A 4 point (2 score)victory over a Dublin team who were wasteful in front of goal, and both of kerrys goals being pretty fortutitous.
Hardly living up to the hot favourites tag.

Replying To Seniorleague:  "Dublin 3 up at the time of posting,dominating the game against a kerry team looking increasingly disheartened (as they often do when things go against them)
The hot favourites tag given to kerry in the build up to this game was ridiculous, regardless of what happens from here."
The 'hot favourites tag given to kerry' was to win the game, which they did.
A game of football lasts 70 minutes, during which there can be many ups and downs for both teams. But nothing matters or counts, but the final score. Not the score after 40 minutes (Dublin 3 up at the time of posting,dominating the game against a kerry team looking increasingly disheartened).

Replying To tommy132:  "Well done Mayo what a performance, even the most positive Mayo person couldnt have seen that big of a win coming.
Hard luck to Louth, didnt do themselves justice yesterday, they are alot better than that.

Ryan O Donoghue a class act, best player on the field. Closely followed by Kobe and of course Berine.
Its hard to get used to seeing Mayo have such a talented /direct full forward line.
Every player played well, pity Towey couldn't have got few more scores to give himself a confidence boost. Coen bit loose on Grimes but still worked hard.
Callinan and Hession very good, be lost without Hession is he very important at getting the ball up the field his acceleration is unreal."
Towey isn't been used as a scorer he's as a facilitator.
He was outstanding yesterday. His pass to Kobe was for his flick to ROD was beautiful. The thing with Towey is if given the chance he will score but that's not his primary job.

Shows what we are capable of when we play to our best by beating All-Ireland Finalists by 10 points.

On the flip side the loss to Monaghan who couldn't beat a 14 man Louth shows how bad we can be when we don't perform on the day.

The work continues to find a consistent Roscommon team.

Well done yesterday, I reckoned Mayo would win but not in that manner, opposition in the final will be a different animal though. Hoping you'll finally get over the line once and for all

Delighted Andy gave it to the media and their bull narrative after every Mayo win. Now it's the hype. The standard of journalism is cat.

And Dublin very possibly denied a goal too.

Very well said Analyser, and great to hear some positive news for a change. You really put things into perspective by outlining the great performance of eight Roscommon teams this year.
Great to see the ladies under 17's, minor and intermediate teams all making it to All Ireland finals.
Hopefully they will all get great support.
