Derry_ledd I don't agree with you at all, Mayo have scored 9-70 in the league so far, more than any other in div one, hardly defensive or negative.Granted we have adjusted to been a bit tighter and can have two/three men surrounding the man on the ball, but in no way to the degree you/re talking about.

If and when we ever win it, we will play football, pure football, inventive football, MAYO FOOTBALL THE ONLY WAY WE KNOW HOW FAIR CLEAN AND NATURAL. In life as in sport people/teams will always be jealous of natural talent, because of the effortless but yet so easy on the eye individuals it can produce, ie, Meehan and Joyce of Galway, Gocch and o Sullivan of Kerry, Ciaran Mac of Mayo, some counties will never produce the likes because its simply not within the genetics of the people of their counties.

i admit we were very lucky, if we had been playing a better team we would have been hammered. full credit to monaghan supporters in castlebar who made alot of noice. great comeback and 2 points in the bag. i would be still worried about us in the long run tho.

ulsterman - give it up i think everyone is fed up with this ulster seige. "too much time played blahh blahh blahh", you sound like like a sheep. we have the points we dont care. by the way why was an antrim man watching division 1 football. come back o us when your own county does something.

You see, thats the point that hasnt got through to many in the past. The "defensive" Ulster team have been racking up big scores but the lazy analysis of puke football has ignored it. Take for example Tyrone, look at some of the big scores they have got over the years.

From what I have seen from Mayo this year, they are doing the same, getting men behind the ball when they lose it and breaking forward fast.

And the second part of you're argument, you are either trying a wind up or extremely ignorant. So I wont respond.

Ulsterman its a minimum of 2 /3 whatever amount of mins thats added at the end of the half. That is what is announced. A minimum of...

If there are stoppages or delaying tactics employed during the added time then the ref is within his rights to add that on further...

It doesn't say that it has to end exactly on the given second so give it a rest with your rambling...
