On Sunday Mayo are in the All-Ireland Final. They are against The Dubs again. I am really excited and I have all the hope in the world for them (C’mon Lads)😄. They haven’t won the Sam Maguire since 1951. I am going to watch it in The Lighthouse Tavern with my friends. People always say they aren’t going to because of THE CURSE but I don’t believe in that I still think there going to win🎉. I predict that the score will be 2-10 MAYO and 1-10 DUBLIN. 🇮🇪😃

I hope Mayo wins the All-Ireland on Sunday.

The name of the cup is Sam Maguire.

The Mayo team are playing on Sunday for the Sam Maguire🏆 WOO HOO.

I have all the hopes in the universe.

Mayo are playing Dublin in the All-Ireland. Mayo won against Meath in 1951 which is 65 years ago. I SO excited I think I’m going to just POP!!!!. I am going to watch the match in Dooceys with my sister Ròisin, my cousin Shannon and my Aunty Sheila.

I predict the score WILL be 2-11 to 1-9. I hope to god that they win.

Big news! Mayo are in the All-Ireland final against the champions Dublin. It is going to be played in Croke Park. I am so excited. I don’t have a ticket but I think it will be better craic in the pub.

Some say there is a curse on the old Mayo team. I think it is true . There is only one old Mayo player left.

In 1951,1950 and 1936 they are the years Mayo won the All Ireland.

I hope Mayo win this year because they got to the All Ireland final so many times and did not win. So this year they are going to win!

I hope Mayo will win the all – Ireland Final .

I think Mayo will win by a point .

I’m watching the Mach in the pub.

Mayo won the All- Ireland Final in 1951.

My favourite player is AidAn O’ Shea, because he is the best player on the team.

I would like to get my jersey signed by Aiden O’ Shea.  The End

from Kyle’s Blog

Everyone knows now the teams in the final. The whole country of Ireland is waiting in excitement for the moment those Mayo/Dublin players walk on the pitch in Croke Park.

I really hope that Mayo win as it has been 65 years since Sam was in Mayo. I heard Tipperary people saying they have been waiting six years for Liam Mc carthy, and they thought 6 years was long!

I hope Mayo wins as Dublin has won many times too much. I think ‘Man of the match’ will be Lee Kegan or Barry Moran. I predict the score will be 2-11 to 2-14 to Mayo.

People say that there is a curse on the team from the last time they won (1951) to not win Sam untill all the players from back then have died. (I dont know what to believe.)

I’m going to Dublin to watch the match in my cousin’s house, as the search continues for those hard-to-get tickets!

Maigheo do Sam 2016

Tá Maigh Eo i gcluiche ceannais na h-Éireann i mbliana. Beidh siad ag imirt in aghaidh Baile Átha Cliath ar 19ú Mean Fomhair 2016. Tá súil againn go mbeidh an bua ag Maigh Eo mar níor bhuaigh siad cluiche ceannais na h-Éireann ó 1951. Tá píosa ón gcluiche sin le feiceáil thíos.

One word can describe how I feel about the match, excited! I am hoping Mayo will win the match. I wish I was going, the atmosphere would be great!

I think that Mayo will win the match, 2-9 to 1-8. If Mayo do win, Dublin won’t give up without a fight. Dublin seem to be favourites this year so it might be good for the Mayo team and Dublin might expect they will win and end up not properly playing.

As most people know we beat Dublin last year in the semi-finals. We also haven’t won since 1951, which is almost 63 years! I feel like this year is our year!

Go Mayo! By Amy

Mayo and Dublin are in the All Ireland Final. We have been waiting for a few
weeks now until the match.

We’ve all been so supportive. The other day we had a Mayo day and everyone had
green and red everywhere.

Mayo haven’t won the Sam Maguire for 62 years now. People say that they are
cursed because the last time they won they started beeping outside a funeral. But
I don’t believe it.

Everyone is so excited. I can’t wait till Sunday.

Mayo are in the All- Ireland final against Dublin on the 22-09-2013.

Mayo have a better team this year than any other year. They are more fit and plays better football. Aidan and Seamus O’Shea are playing better in midfield, and can get good scores.

Chris Barrett is in the panel and plays in half-backs. He scored two good points when they were playing Tyrone.

There’s rumours going around that Mayo are cursed. The last time Mayo won Sam in 1951 they passed a church, and they were beeping outside a church while a funeral was on.

I hope Mayo can win Sam Maguire and bring it back where it belongs.

Waiting for Sam.

Mayo are in the All Ireland final this year again. I can’t wait until 22/9/13 because that is when Mayo are playing against Dublin.

Me and my family are going to the match because we got tickets. We hope they won’t give up and bring Sam back to Mayo.

It has been over 62 years since Mayo have won. I hope Mayo win this year and bring Sam to our school.

Chris Barrett is in half –back so we hope he scores again we could be in the lead against Dublin. I hope Andy Moran will lift the Sam McGuire.

This Sunday Mayo are in the All Ireland final against the Dubs. Mayo have not won the Sam Maguire for 62 years. They got to the
final last year against Donegal but they lost. I went to the semi-final and they played really good. I really hope Mayo win. Up Mayo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

! Waiting For Sam !

This Sunday is the All- Ireland final Mayo vs. Dublin. I’m so excited. Mom and Dad have tickets already but we didn’t get any. We don’t know where we are staying yet, but we don’t care as long as Mayo win.

Mayo hadn’t won since 1951 so I think it would be awesome if we won. I’m so excited and hope that Mayo bring the Sam back home!!!

I am so excited about the match on Sunday. I really really hope Mayo will win and bring Sam back to his real home.

I think it would be really good if Mayo won, because they have not won it since 1951.

I do not believe in ‘The Curse’ and I don’t think any of the Mayo team should either, and I hope they don’t give up and think that the curse is at them.

Hopefully Mayo will come home
with the Sam.

C’mon Mayo!

I feel very exited for the match next Sunday. I hope Mayo wins the match because they haven’t won since 1951 so it will be great if they win.

Dublin are very tough so it will be a tight match, but Mayo might just win.
Up Mayo!
