For the first time in 75 years, the Sam Mcguire Cup comes home to Mayo, Ireland.
I said it three years ago when I was in Ballina: Mayo for Sam!
And I meant it.
I said it because I know what it means not just the county of Mayo but to my own family’s story.
Today, the dream becomes reality.
Congratulations to my friends in Mayo. You earned this victory. Enjoy every minute. Sam is coming home ☘️
75 YEARS AND THE WAIT IS OVER!!!!!
MAYO ARE FINALLY ALL-IRELAND FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS!!!!!!

@ciarannugent You’re ignoring 23% VAT, road tax, property tax, sugar tax (and sure there will be a broadcasting tax soon) - clearly not qualified to talk on the matter, but very keen to push your agenda.
@CynicalPublius If you don't think soccer players don't play through injuries , you really are clueless. Soccer is a very rough and physical sport , they play it for ninety minutes. Unlike the twelve minutes and forty seven seconds of play time in a typical professional football game.
@PeterDooleyDUB Our closeness to our elected TDs is a great feature of Ireland. This is a normal guy, dad a taxi driver, who has ended up in politics. He has normal mates and a family. Why wouldn't he go to the game and why wouldn't people chat to him? We want politicians who are in touch.
Everything about this is perfect: the ignorance, the performative grievance, the keffiyeh lanyard.
A perfect representation of the Irish Left. Chef’s kiss.
For those of you defending Lynn Boylan for not being able to fire off a cúpla ceist as Gaeilige. Ni Mhurchu demonstrates how it is done here, provided you can actually speak the language.
And I'm sure it's just an incredible coincidence that she posted it this evening.
They took her victim card away within seconds, and she didn’t know what to do.
“I wasn’t prepared”.
More like you were exposed. Biggest bunch of frauds to ever exist.
@channelusWHUFC@DublinAirport You do realise that the post it taking the piss out of Irish fans who want England to loose but then are die hard English club supporters?
@DublinAirport How do people not get that Dublin Airport is poking fun at Irish people who rejoice in England's failures but then support English domestic clubs?
@eoinmauricedaly It was her performative spoofery that did her in. Most Irish politicians wouldn't try to be arseholes about it in the first place. Also, everyone knew this was the first time we’ve held a presidency with Irish as an official working language. Sinn Féin were told all this.
