Replying To MayoDan: "Plenty of mayo fans nervous about this game and most Roscommon fans will fancy their chances of a win. Definitely won't be a big upset if Roscommon win." We certainly have a better chance in McHale Park than in Hyde Park. Roscommon haven't beaten Mayo in the championship in Hyde Park since 2001. We have two championship wins against Mayo in Castlebar over the last seven years. Hope Daire Cregg is allowed to play. Unlucky to be sent off in New York I think. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2631 - 15/04/2026 18:20:15 2666618 Link

Very impressive win for the u20s over Galway tonight. 3-16 to 1-12. Kobe with 2-3. Anyone at the game ? yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 12038 - 15/04/2026 20:21:15 2666646 Link

Mayo very Clinical, Galway very sloppy in possession and some awful poor misses in the second half. Mayo number 5 was outstanding. Wind had a big effect in the first half, Mayo had a brilliant defensive set up and nullified Galway two point opportunities. GDL (Galway) - Posts: 938 - 15/04/2026 21:06:13 2666654 Link
Replying To The_analyser: ""Most Roscommon fans" enough of the exaggeration Dan!" Well from what I see on Roscommon forums, they don't rate Andy Moran as a manager and don't rate many of the Mayo players.. MayoDan (Mayo) - Posts: 540 - 15/04/2026 22:51:50 2666667 Link
Replying To Drax_the_destroyer: "Not a theory. Expectations and odds are what they are." Your "expectation" that Roscommon carry the same form line from a dead rubber league game into championship is indeed what it is. Immer (Mayo) - Posts: 78 - 16/04/2026 06:38:40 2666681 Link
Replying To Immer: "Your "expectation" that Roscommon carry the same form line from a dead rubber league game into championship is indeed what it is." My expectation is irrelevant. The bookmakers and their punters placing the cash on is relevant. What they are looking at and thinking is its hard to ignore a 20 point loss in the last meeting and Mayo won well in January also against Roscommon.

Your sage anaylsis is what we're interested in; "trying to turn around that margin of defeat into a shock win in MacHale Park in a matter of weeks is unlikely let's be honest." I wouldn't be too worried about the bookmakers. Immer (Mayo) - Posts: 78 - 16/04/2026 14:56:03 2666793 Link
Minors lose their third game and are out. A very poor year at this grade but that can happen unfortunately. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 12038 - 17/04/2026 22:18:53 2666987 Link
Concerned about Mayo defence, conceded 1.15 to London and seem to concede a goal every game, Roscommon have very good scoring forwars and have a good record in Castlebar. The only comparison between the Roscommon Team in the last league game and the Team we face next Sunday is that they wear the same colour jerseys.

We have seen high scores on both teams so far would not worry to much as long as mayo score high also . S1234 (Mayo) - Posts: 1079 - 20/04/2026 10:37:44 2667445 Link
