The 1922 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final was the 35th All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1922 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.
Dublin defeated Galway.
Sligo had qualified, but were ejected in spectacular circumstances, and also stripped of their Connacht SFC title (given instead to Galway).
Pre-match
This was Galway's second appearance in an All-Ireland SFC final following their first appearance (a loss to Kildare) in 1919. They would not win the All-Ireland SFC title until 1925.Tom Kenny https://www.advertiser.ie/galway/article/38701/the-men-who-first-brought-sam-to-galway The men who first brought Sam to Galway Galway Advertiser 14 April 2011 14 April 2011
Galway were lucky to have even been there in the first place. Sligo had won that year's Connacht Senior Football Championship, defeating Roscommon, Mayo and Galway, before disposing of Tipperary in their subsequent All-Ireland SFC semi-final meeting. However, "a flimsy technicality" led to a replay of the Galway versus Sligo Connacht SFC final, which Sligo lost. Galway had then become Connacht SFC winner, thus being elevated into the All-Ireland SFC final at Sligo's expense. Sligo were left with ... nothing.Eamonn Sweeney http://www.independent.ie/sport/other-sports/about-time-lady-luck-gave-sligo-the-time-of-day-995360.html About time Lady Luck gave Sligo the time of day Sunday Independent 8 July 2007 8 July 2007
