@Mel Robets: They done way better that ye when ye faced them.. You really have it in for Mayo.. Some Mayo guy or gal let you down badly in the past.

@Mel Robets: nah sure it resides in Castlebar pal

@Rory Murphy: It’s more the sense of entitlement that mayo fans seem to have that their players are entitled to win an all Ireland. Coupled with the fact they bottled so many golden opportunities to win all Irelands at this stage, its all well and good running Dublin to draws and the like but as someone whos played the game, watching a group of players leave games behind them the way mayo have is probably why I dislike them as a group. Go and actually win an all Ireland then I’d your that good. Why do you cling to this thing that you done better against Dublin than anyone else has?

@Mel Robets: In all fairness when these 2 sides meet in a final you are guaranteed good exicting attacking football.. Unlike some teams… However as one who has kicked the odd ball himself I find it strange you dislike a group because they want to win.. I don’t dislike the Dubs even though they have broken our hearts on many occasions… In the grand scheme of things it says more about you than anything else.

@Rory Murphy: I don’t dislike them for wanting to win. I dislike them for the amount of winning opportunities they have left behind them. They have been is positions that teams with winners in them would kill it off and these boys have bottled it. That’s why I dislike them, for not having the stones to get over the line when it matters when golden opportunities have been there. I don’t know about you but I never set foot on a pitch hoping to run a team close

@Mel Robets: You’d have to admire their resilience, coming back year after year only to get beat… Have a good evening as bitterness does nobody any good.

@Rory Murphy: There’s absolutely no bitterness here. If tyrone blew golden opportunities the way mayo have over the years I’d say the same thing. The games about winning not clinging to this nonsense that your the only team to put it up to Dublin, its embarrassing

@Mel Robets: What’s embarrassing is how much it gets under your skin.

@Rory Murphy: It doesn’t get under my skin at all. I genuinely just have no time for celebrating mediocrity

@my name: classic . The headline should read Dublin to beat Mayo for the 4th time in 8 seasons.

@Mel Robets: But it does get under your skin hence you’re on here at every opportunity spouting the same old same old… As we say over here just let it slide man.. Let it slide.

@Rory Murphy: every opportunity? Haven’t posted in over 6 months pal

@JPM: and there it is, you wonder why we have a chip on our shoulder then about you lot down there

@Mel Robets: Really?? Whereas in fact It reads more like you’ve been trolling for that comment for past hour!!

@JPM: I’ve been trolling waiting on someone calling me a nordie so and so? If that is what you think I’d go seek help pal

@Mel Robets: dumbst reason to dislike a team I’ve ever heard. Surely it would be the opposite

@Finnster: another one of the mayo haters. Jog on you pleb

@Alright Alright Alright: what is there to like about a team that constantly blows it on the biggest stage? Am I supposed to feel sorry for a group of players because they have browned the togs so many times when the winning lines in sight? Give me that Dublin team every day over a side that doesn’t have what it takes to see it through

@Finnster: still bitter over mayo beating Galway I presume?

@Mel Robets: On a side note, I’m nearly sure you used to be called Mel Roberts… And you haven’t been on here for 6 months… A couple of weeks ago when Cavan and Tipp were winning their matches, in the comment section below the live report some posters were wondering where that Northern so and so was… Did it happen that your account was banned and you reinvented yourself with the ommision of an R… I could be wrong about this!

@Finnster: shoot in your cv to TheJournal.ie pal. That’s brilliant

@Rory Murphy: what’s it to you?

@Mel Robets: True then?

@Rory Murphy: what the bells it to you?

@Rory Murphy: don’t you be worrying or getting your knickers in a twist about me sherlock holmes

@Mel Robets: You spend your days on the comment section of the Journal, kinda sad tbf

@Aido: tell me this When’s the last time I was on before yesterday? April? March?

@Mel Robets: Sound… Got my answer.

@Rory Murphy: again what business is it if yours

@Mel Robets: you seem to be on your own here Mel, your reasoning makes no sense at all…

@Alexander Moo: because I don’t feel sorry for a team that have failed time and time again? Sure hang on I’ll jump on the band wagon and we can all celebrate mediocrity

@JPM: he sure is. I actually wonder why every Galway supporter hates mayo

@Mel Robets: Mel, go on away and enjoy your bitterness

@Finnster: always nice to beat Galway

@Mel Robets: you don’t need to feel sorry for them but to hate them for not beating an extremely good Dublin team is bizarre.

@Alexander Moo: that’s not what I said and you know it. I dislike them for not getting over the line when they should have multiple times. They didn’t have the stones to do so, yet the way they carry themselves you’d think they had won the 5 in a row

@Mel Robets: As I said, I just thinks it’s bizarre, you are of course entitled to your opinion but you don’t like them because they didn’t win, did you also hate Liverpool up until last year? The lakers over the last 10 years? There are literally thousands of teams that don’t win and very few that do… I do understand what you are saying, I just find it a very unusual thought process.

@Alexander Moo: your not getting my point, mayo hadn’t the stones to finish off finals that were there for the taking on more than one ocassion. Hence the dislike for them. None of the above mentioned have failed on as many occasions as mayo have over the years
