@jonnypmayo @SamDempsey1998 I’d really argue that low percentage point to be honest but I guess it’s all relative. The data doesn’t exist so we’re talking to each other into thin air but I’ve never seen an amateur footballer or amateur rugby player see the same level of benefit. FairPlay to the GAA lads.

The Mayo story is utterly phenomenal it’s what sport is all about and I was watching Sunday. However, this narrative that the top inter county GAA players are “amateur” though explicitly true is still facetious. I’d argue they’re some of the top “paid” athletes on the island.
HLTCO@HLTCO

This whole Mayo story has properly got into my head. The fact that they’re all doing it for the love and pride of their county over any sort of financial gain is so uplifting. That’s what sport should be all about when you boil it down to its essence.

@jonnypmayo @SamDempsey1998 The post specifically discussed the top inter county players. Did I say a single thing about the average Junior C veteran? No, I did not.

@IFBMedia @SamDempsey1998 You are clueless. A handful from the top teams get a sponsored car. What else are you talking about in monetary terms? You think free physio etc is a massive perk?

@SamDempsey1998 A strong percentage of the inter county players will. If we’re counting those who aren’t inter county well that’s the same for amateur rugby and football players too.

Very sad news. When I lived in Dublin I used to see The Frames any chance I got. Great memories.

@moefitzpatrick I think what mayo has been like the last few days would be like Ireland winning the world cup in soccer or even more unrealistic would be winning a world cup quarter final in the rugby

Given all elements of story came together (in social media era), this eclipses any other All-Ire in terms of impact imo. Is it an exaggeration to say there hasn't been such widespread interest/goodwill & delirious emotional scenes around any sporting event in Ire since Italia 90?

Joe Brolly has spent years attacking Mayo players and some of the stuff he has said was way, way over the line. He would have had an article pre written full of jibes which he didn't get a chance to publish because of the result. Nobody wants to hear his take on this game.

If you're missing the World Cup, we present these scenes from Ireland 🏆 Mayo, after 75 years of hurt, a curse and 11 consecutive defeats in the final, are All-Ireland (Gaelic) football champions. Look what it means. This is why we love sports ❤️‍🔥

@jonnypmayo Northern teams go there to beat Kerry. Mayo just go hoping. Yev lost already with that attitude.

I have read one article that has given Mayo a chance and that was by Stephen Rochford. Every other one has said Kerry comfortably some even going as far as to say they fear a hammering could be on the cards. Hopefully we can get a few kickouts away and have a nice day out.

@JohnLac36728740 Kerry favourites and rightly so. My point is if Mayo push them all way those who said they would be hammered will still call them chokers.

@jonnypmayo Not many gave Gal a chance last Sun, and see how that worked out. Semis in both codes took similar path..favs struggled to reach finals while other side winners looked devastating..If kerry win Sun, Munster sides will have won every All Ire club and county this year in both codes

@pebblesmeller @anspailpin Total clickbait. It was a radio interview as already pointed out where he was asked about the end of his tenure.

@anspailpin It wouldn't have been as "savage" if he had read the room and taken any of the THREE opportunities he had been given to step down, on his own terms, as opposed to being booted out.

@joebduffy @ExaminerSport The truth is not obnoxious. Awful supporters and always had thugs and scumbags among the playing ranks. Kerry by 10 or more hopefully. Yee don’t deserve an All Ireland the way your supporters and players have carried on throughout the years.

@LaobhaoiseNihE I don't know a single person who underestimates Kerry, online, or in person. And you think they'll have a plan for our 3 forwards who have been going well in previous games? Huge news if true.

I think some Mayo people are underestimating Kerry, they are All Ireland champions for a reason. You can be sure they will have a plan for Kobe McDonald , Darragh Beirne, Ryan O'Donoghue & Tommy Conroy. How Mayo target David & Paudie Clifford, Mike Breen & Joe O'connor is the big question. #GAA #Mayogaa
