Right, our long lay-off – for which we have Roscommon to thank – is almost over. From this weekend onwards and for as long as we’re involved in this year’s Championship, the longest break we’ll now get between games is a fortnight and only then, as Kevin McStay pointed out to Rob on the podcast last week, if we win […]
The week just gone was a hectic one for us on the Mayo Football Podcast, with four separate shows going online for our club members on Patreon during the week, featuring interviews with three separate Mayo managers. In this pod, Rob and I introduce a few segments from these four shows. Last Monday, Mike caught up with Mayo LGFA manager […]
The GAA have this afternoon confirmed fixture details for the first round of All-Ireland SFC group stage matches the weekend after next. Our Group 1 game against Kerry has been fixed for Saturday week (20th May) in Fitzgerald Stadium, Killarney, where throw-in will be 3pm. The match will be streamed live on GAA GO.
Today’s two dreadful provincial deciders answered a few questions and offered a few hints about how the summer might pan out. From our perspective, the main point of clarification was that Kerry’s facile Munster SFC final win over Clare confirms their place as the top-seeded team in Group 1. This means our opening match in the new All-Ireland group stage […]
This is a big weekend for Sligo’s footballers but, after this evening’s enthralling U20 All-Ireland semi-final win for the county over Kerry, it’s already guaranteed to be a great one. Tomorrow’s Nestor Cup decider is, of course, important for the Yeats County but a first-ever Championship win over Kerry, guaranteeing Sligo only their second ever appearance in an All-Ireland final, […]
Mayo enjoyed an emphatic win over All-Ireland champions Kerry at MacHale Park on Saturday night – the biggest win the county has recorded over the Green and Gold since 1948 – and in this podcast episode, which was made available to our club members the day after the game was played, we review the match against Kerry and get some […]
The votes are in and counted and the outcome is a decisive one. By a wide margin, you’ve voted Jordan Flynn as our Man of the Match from last night’s game against Kerry. The Crossmolina man’s importance within the Mayo team has grown immeasurably over the last year. The first real proof of this was how much we missed him […]
Just before the final whistle blew at MacHale Park last night, a slew of youngsters had congregated just outside the whitewash on the bacon factory end. The result hadn’t been in doubt for some time and the obligatory pitch invasion was definitely going to happen, which it duly did with some gusto when Seán Hurson signalled the contest’s end. All […]
Well, we got our overdue win over Kerry and in far more decisive fashion than any of us could have reasonably predicted in advance. It’s not every day a match against them is won by half-time but this one sure was. With the cavalry on after the break, Kerry hauled the scoreline back into respectable territory but this was an […]
We’re set for a big match experience under the MacHale Park lights tonight. All-Ireland champions Kerry are rolling into town, taking on our lads in a National League Division One Round 2 fixture. Seán Hurson of Tyrone is the ref for a match that throws in at 7.30pm this evening. It’s being shown live on TG4. We’re level on two […]
