Not a good day for Cork management

MAYO have become Samuel Beckett’s child of 2011: “I can’t go on, I’ll go on.”

They have travelled some road since requiring extra time to see off London in Ruislip. Their appetite yesterday for a battle and their physicality stunned Cork who possibly were looking a bit further down the road.

They found it is nigh impossible to step up a level mid-game. However, James Horan can now no longer play the beál bocht as everyone is now starting to realise just how good Mayo actually are.
