O’Shea: Croke Park holds no fear for Mayo youth

When Mayo last won their opening three rounds of the league, the year was 2006, Mickey Moran and the late John Morrison were in charge of the westerners and Aidan O’Shea was only 15 years of age.

There has been a lot of water under the bridge since then and one of the constants with Mayo has been indifferent league form but being a different animal come championship.
