Morrison wants men of ’51 to see ‘curse’ lifted

ALLIANZ FL DIVISION 1:

Speaking before last year’s All-Ireland final defeat to Dublin, the Armagh man spoke of Mayo’s real curse being their mindset. Having watched them lose their seventh successive September decider and a second in as many years, he was further convinced the county and, by extension, its players have subconsciously bought into the idea of being perennial bridesmaids.

A large part of it, he believes, comes from generations of talk that they are haunted by the hex speculated to have been placed on members of the ’51 team for over-celebrating in Foxford.
