I'd have Galway ahead of Derry too. Galway have some serious players, Conroy, Silke, Comer, Kelly and Walsh. I see commentators talking about Derry and the Glen factor and Derry underage success. Galway have the Corofin factor and way more All Ireland club titles recently. Glen were also lucky to beat Moycullen in the semi final two years ago. Galway have also just won 3 Connachts on the bounce, have a an All Ireland minor title from two years ago and an U20 title from 2020 having beat Dublin and were probably just one or two players of beating Kerry in 2022. If Galway lock down Glass in a similar fashion to what we did, you'd fancy them to come out on top. The issue both teams have is both have two dodgy keepers. I heard yesterday that Galway have never lost to Derry in the Championship.

Cheers Lockjaw. Still looking forward to it all the same.The wife is worse than me , can't get her home when she goes out ha. Heading to Gran Canaria, I'm sure there'll be a few Donegal or Tyrone people looking for the same as me. Roll on next week.

Yeah I have a slight inkling for Galway in this weekend's fixture. They're getting their best players back, and Derry have lost one of their best to injury in McGrogan. Does anyone get the feeling that all it could take is one more damaging championship defeat for the knives to come out for Mickey Harte? I know a lot of Derry GAA people had some major reservations about his appointment, given his Tyrone past. If Galway can beat them the pressure will be on.

Hi Lockjaw: If you have the season ticket that option is now available but they are saying stand tickets are limited.

The three match package only costs the same as paying for two games with one game free so even if you don't get to the cork game. If you are going to the neutral game you aren't losing out anything. It's only if you are a one game person that the package doesn't suit. Whateveryourhavingyourself (Donegal) - Posts: 48 - 16/05/2024 12:01:34 2545078 Link 0 |
Ah ok. Good to know. I've actually gone and requested a few stand tickets from the club for the Tyrone game so I'll see what happens there. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9432 - 16/05/2024 13:26:18 2545099 Link 0 |
Hi whateveryourhavingyourself: if you choose the 3 match package after 1pm Wednesday 15th bear in mind it's a terrace ticket for the Donegal game. You had to have purchased before the deadline for the stand.

I see the package is sold out now. It was great offer and good to see it. Some difference in enthusiasm and interest between this year and last. Last year it was a trip to clare and Rory was pretty much there on his own. Only galway of the provincial champions won the first group game last year. Tyrone will be a tough opposition especially having played them before. I wonder will meyler and harte be back. Macshane and Kilpatrick will be much more match fit. The last few big championship matches they've beat us there too so no fortress ballybofey. Though at least we know it's niall Morgan least favorite ground and we should look to keep it that way....

Big congrats to the team and management on getting over the line at the weekend. I certainly was envious of everyone there as seemed like a momentous occasion but I certainly wasn't thinking that when 4 points down in the second half. Commiserations to Armagh. They got so much right on the day and it was a cruel way to lose. That's two Ulster finals in a matter of weeks decided the same way and this needs to be looked at. The split season is too saturated and the scheduling is insane. From a Donegal perspective that's two games where our mental fortitude has been put to the max and we've come through this is one factor I really think Jim brings to the team. I cannot say I'm too enthused about seeing Tyrone again but there is plenty of time to recover. Exciting times indeed. On another note best of luck to the minors at the weekend. Be great to see them in an Ulster final and in the AI series. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2806 - 16/05/2024 19:54:04 2545186 Link 0 |

Hard luck to our minors this morning. Better first half than the first but the only Armagh scores in the second half were 2 killer goals at killer times. NPadraigAbu (Donegal) - Posts: 74 - 18/05/2024 13:27:45 2545376 Link 0 |
Better second half*

For the mother of God, will Donegal people give it a rest about tickets. All i've heard is tickets, tickets, tickets. This time last year you couldn't have gave tickets away and now you'd think nobody else goes to matchers only you. Neartheborder (Derry) - Posts: 59 - 18/05/2024 14:14:49 2545386 Link 1 |

For a few decades you couldn't give tickets away in Derry.
