Following that victory and with a first ever Connacht final ahead of them, the city's mayor Boris Johnson sent congratulations to the London team.http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/gaelic-games/gaelic-football/boris-johnson-won-t-attend-connacht-final-1.1449412 Boris Johnson won't attend Connacht final The Irish Times Irish Times Trust 1 July 2013 1 July 2013 Mayo, on the other hand, had contested the previous year's All-Ireland Final and were extremely convincing on their march to the final. They humiliated their traditional rivals Galway in the quarter-finals, beating them comfortably in their own grounds. Galway had two players sent off and the game ended 4-16 to 0-11. Their next match saw Mayo face Roscommon in the semi-finals, a team who had run them close in the 2011 Connacht final two years earlier. This year, however, Mayo were winners by a much greater margin, beating them 0-21 to 0-09 in McHale Park. In the end Mayo proved too much for London, winning the J. J. Nestor Cup, and automatically advanced to the quarter-final stage of the All-Ireland. This was Mayo's 45th Connacht title, and saw them overtake Galway on 44. They progressed to the 2013 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final. London entered the final round of the All-Ireland Qualifiers and headed to Croke Park for the first time, where they lost to Cavan.David Kelly http://www.independent.ie/sport/cavan-stutter-past-london-to-make-final-eight-29453538.html Cavan stutter past London to make final eight Irish Independent Independent News & Media 27 July 2013 27 July 2013 Bracket Quarter-finals Semi-finals Final 35 New York 0-7 Leitrim 4-19 Sligo 0-14 London 1-12 Galway 0-11 Mayo 4-16 Leitrim 1-13 London 2-11 Roscommon 0-9 Mayo 0-21 London 0-10 Mayo 5-11 Quarter-finals 5 May 2013 Quarter-Final New York 0-7 - 4-19 Leitrim J.
