Mayo fans pictured queueing for pubs from 10am ahead of All-Ireland final

It was an early start for a number of Mayo fans in Westport on Saturday as they queued to get into pubs from 10am.

Former Republic of Ireland international and Mayo fan Kevin Kilbane shared a picture of supporters outside Danny's Bar in the centre of the town on Twitter.

He commented on it: "Queues for the pub at 10am in Westport today. We all live in hope! #mayoforsam."

James Horan's side are aiming to end 70 years of hurt for the Westerners by winning their first All-Ireland since 1951 at Croke Park.

Mayo are favourites to lift the Sam Maguire after beating Dublin in their semi-final clash and ending the Boys in Blue's domination four weeks ago.

They face a Tyrone side who beat Kerry in the other semi-final a fortnight ago, with that game being put back two weeks because of a Covid-19 outbreak in the Red Hands' squad.

Over 41,000 fans will be in attendance for the decider, which gets under way at 5pm.
