Let's get the bandwagon in full flow now, as for Mayo.. Mayo won't beat us next season, i can't see anyone beating us in the championship another year under Mickey and his guidance with the young fellas sure only one way we can go, Mayos day has come and gone. Just like Monaghans and Donegal.. Donegal were great in 2012 we're preparing for 2016 and Monaghan fans need to get back to reality with everything based around Conor McManus Dublin and Kerry will be our tests next year, fairly confident baring injuries we could do Kerry.. And doing Sam back to back is nearly impossible. The scum of Ulster

Got to love your optimism haven't appeared in a provincial final since 2010 yet going to win the all Ireland next year.

It's hard to know where we will be next year and will all depend on what young players are brought into the squad and also on how Gallagher uses the older players. I still think several of the players that are touted as possible retirements could do a job for us especially in the role of impact subs etc.

For all the hype you are making about Tyrone I wouldn't mind getting them in the 1st round of Ulster next year.

I haven't seen an awful lot of Dublin's second string keeper but I reckon Clukton needs to seriously up his game next year. Kerry actually did a good job of pushing up on his kick outs and he made quite a lot of mistakes. He made quite a few mistakes against Mayo. His free taking has gone backwards too. 2011 and 2012 he could hardly miss, now he can barely make a free Ah he is a family friend wallsy would not say it otherwise, believe it or not he is a funny guy when around friends and family, some funny stories from the goblet pub and Parnells last night but will leave them for now

All is not well in Mayo. If things are not sorted, and sorted soon, then relegation could be on the cards, followed by giving up our Connacht title. Such a f**king mess.

I still think Dublin, Mayo and Kerry are a good bit ahead of them and I reckon Donegal would have a better chance of beating one of those three in a one off game than Tyrone, as things stand at the moment.

I think if we bring the right players into the squad next year we be good enough to win ulster again. I be honest don't buy into the hype around tyrone they beat 1 team from division 1 on their run to the semi final this year.

Alot of people will automatically right off donegal after this year (not necessarily you walls) but I know we have the players in the county that can come in and improve the team and it's a matter of Rory Gallagher being willing to leave club loyalties aside and have the best players in the squad and starting 15 and as I said still believe the older players can play a roll as impact squads etc

One team of complete no hopers, and London.

Tough opener for Mayo

I think Tyrone will take Ulster next year, kerry again in munster and no surprise with Dublin taking Leinster.
I expect connaught to be the most competitive next year. Galway are another year along under Walsh and he has certainly improved all be it from a very low base. I'd imagine roscommon are still sick after this year so there has to be more to come from them. All that coupled with surely a drop in mayo. After the last few years of all ireland semi finals and finals and bags of connaught titles. I think if Galway and roscommon want a provincial title it's there for them.
