It's Christmas week for football fans this weekend with the start of the Mayo GAA Senior Football Championship.

This weekend sees the start of the Mayo GAA Senior Football Championship with eight games taking place across four different groups. Knockmore are the defending champions and the rest of the pack will be going all guns blazing to hunt down Ray Dempsey's men this time around. We look ahead to all the action over a hectic weekend of games.

For the ninth time in their history Knockmore were crowned as the high kings of Mayo football on Sunday afternoon in MacHale Park.

Come Sunday evening, either a long drought for one of the traditional big beasts of the game or the realisation of a long-held dream for one of the pretenders to the throne will become a reality, when the Moclair Cup is handed over in MacHale Park.

Over the past 12 seasons, just four clubs have ended the year with the Moclair Cup in their possession and for nine of those years, it was passed between Castlebar Mitchels and Ballintubber, with Ballaghaderreen winning twice and Charlestown once.

Where do you start with this one - at the end there was a huge gulf on the scoreboard, but there were many twists and tales that led to that conclusion.

It’s all to play for still in the Mayo Senior Football Championship after the second round of games over the weekend.

It was county final heartbreak again for Breaffy as Ballintubber reclaimed the Moclair cup they last won in 2014.

The borderline between these two west Mayo clubs is as thin as a knife edge and the outcome was just as narrow.

Some time around 9.30pm tomorrow night after 32 games and 1,960 minutes of football (minus injury time), we will find out who is the best of the best in the county.
