Dublin v Tyrone

I suspect maynoothlillie is not as Lilywhite as he/she proclaims to be.

We were supposedly mentally scared in the mid 90's when we couldn't beat the Dubs and look what happened.... 98' and 00' Leinster final win's.

By even mentioning that we only lost by a max of 3 points speaks for itself. I am not insulting anybody associated with Kildare, just pointing out that we have to change things to make progress. If it means, getting rid of Johnny Doyle and a few others, so be it. This team hasn't delivered and never will. They are mentally scarred and if it means a couple of years in the outer wilderness,(we are currently in the inner wilderness) so be it. It'll be worth it in the long run.

Sometimes you can't help but despair at what some people think...

These players, under McGeeney are the ones who got us out of the wilderness to begin with. As long as we keep going the way we are then we won't have to suffer like that again.

Maynoothlillie must be still celebrating that win against Tyrone yesterday...

Has anyone else noticed that the nonsense being talked on the forum the last few days are coming from new members/posters of the forum (maynoothlillie and cill dara) ie. these clowns have said nothing all year and then suddenly when Kildare get knocked out, they are confident enough to come on and post all sorts of shite.

Well maybe not so hidden in some cases...

Totally agree. Alot of nonsense lately, and threads going totally off topic.

In a strange way, the ref last week did us a favour. Dublin were awesome last night and I think we would have struggled badly against them in the semi final. Let's give our support to the last remaining Leinster team in the All Ireland.

id rather iron the rinkles out of my sack!
ABD!!!

F***in classic post. Nothing like a good laugh on a Sunday evening.

We've been knocked out of the championship in McGeeneys term by not more than three points in those four years. We're knocking on the door but the f**king thing won't open.

Show me where I wrote that I considered a three point defeat as a success? I was merely counteracting your post where you wrote that we would have struggled against Dublin. SoI'd prefer it you did't me out to be writing something that I'm not.

Your post was absolutely ridicilous and frankly its an insult to the players, management and real Kildare fans on this forum to say that the ref did us a favour.

Maynoothlillie the only one mentally scarred is yourself....you must be a meathman !

I would like to see Dublin lifting Sam in 2011 and I think that they have a great chance. But some folk on here think that they have it won already and that is dangerous talk. In my opinion , Kerry are licking their lips now with the second best team in the country gone and the only other team they truly feared beaten last Saturday night. Also , every one of their forwards are better than any of the Dublin backs.And Dublin still have a lot to prove.

I also think that a Dublin win would be beneficial to our prospects in the next couple of years , particularly in Leinster. Their hunger might be less than ours.When Armagh won in 2002 , Tyrone became a stronger and hungrier unit and won three AI's.

So heres hoping for a Dublin win in 2011 and Sam returning to Leinster

With you on that, would like to see the Dubs go all the way.

To be honest I hope they don't win the all Ireland. There are a fair few of them living in the towns of Kildare and they are already starting to swan around the place in their blue jerseys. Just imagine having to listen to a whole year of gloating in that annoyingly whining "Whah, Shure Yis cuhend even beah Fourheen men,, whah " accent.

I knew Dublin would win that one. They are much better than that Tyrone team after dishing out 2 impressive championship beatings on them in successive years but the manner of the victory was very impressive. If they replicate that they will face Kerry in the final.



That however is another whole kettle of fish and Im not sure they could take the kingdom on All-Ireland final day.



I wouldnt write donegal out of the equation just yet either.

nothing new here didn't kildare put out Down flags in 1960 when offaly played them, so i don't think
they would shout for Dublin, as a kerryman i have seen kerry flags in limerick in glin and foynes
you wouldn't see them in Cork doe. did kildare have kerry flags out in 1972 and 1982 when offaly beat us.

I'd fancy donegal to beat dublin... There wasn't a finger laid on connolly Saturday.... Tyrone were a shambles... They couldn't cope with cluxtons kick outs... Mcguinness will have them well set up for it...

Donegal won't beat Dublin they went 57 minutes without scoring out of the the whole match and
extra time again kildare, Dublin have forwards that kildare don't Dublin by 5 points.

admin im pretty sure saying johnny dizzle shouldnt be playing is a barrable offense!
no-one disses the great one!

Dublin will beat Donegal and beat them well provided they don't suffer from a mental breakdown (which I don't think they will under Gilroy). Leave aside the whole squareball hullaballu for a minute; Kildare underperformed against Donegal. So many of our main players - Johnny, Jimmers & Leper in particular played nowhere near the level they are capable of. I'm sure people will say Donegal didn't let them play but we still had a bucketful of chances to win that game. Dublin are just that little bit further down the road then us at this stage and they will have a bit too much for Donegal.

I don't think Dublin will beat Kerry but I fully expect them to win at least one All-Ireland within the next few years. Tyrone are going to be down for a few years and I'd expect Cork will be the same. Both teams have too many players the wrong side of thirty and their younger lads are too green yet. Kerry are Kerry and will always be up there but they too have plenty of lads who are in their last few seasons. Dublin have a scary amount of talent coming through and the majority of their team is in their mid-twenties (coming towards their peak). I think it will be a good thing for Leinster football. Look at how Dublin getting to and finally winning an All-Ireland title in the early nineties spurred Meath and Kildare on in the latter half of that decade.

I'm not sure about this one. I wouldn't like to see the dubs win for personal reasons but they certainly won't have it as easy as last saturday night. Connolly did get oceans of space because of the defensive system Tyrone set out with but Donegal are similar to ourselves in that respect so I can't see him getting too much room. Although you still have to consider both Brogans, Lacey I'm sure will be given the unenviable task of marking Alan.

I think, as we saw from our own match v the dubs, when Tom O'Connor came on he caused O'Carroll a few problems so marking Murphy he might have his hands full again.

Donegal are S.IT lads they will be caught out with the puke football they play

Yes Donegal are SHIT townend, they are in the All-Ireland Semis so that means the other 28 teams are even shittier!

Win playing Sh*ite, puke or beautiful football... What will the records say.. The winners and that's it... We went on about the northern teams for years playing this type of football in years past but the records never lie's. Might not be pretty but if Kildare brought home an All Ireland I wouldn't be complaining.... We're not exactly getting accolades for beautiful football ourselves....

Neither would i write off Mayo , they have nothing to prove ,and nobody expects it , kerry are no great shakes , similar to tyrone , there is some milage on the clock , particularly there full back line ,look what happened cork , just turn up , kerry to do the same , and to be beat by a team who will not be in awe of the medals in the arse pocket
