Gay Byrne was always a cunt

On Saturday night, 4 February 1984, Ireland’s most popular television show was coming to an end, when the host read this headline from the next day’s Sunday Tribune newspaper: “Girl, 15, Dies Giving Birth In A Field”.

With the words “Nothing terribly exciting there”, the newspaper was cast down on the studio floor by the Late Late Show host, Gay Byrne

Looks like you’re right. No flies on @Fagan_ODowd today. Charlie took him for seven points that day. With eleven years between them it was Dicks first and Charlie’s last final. @Corksfinedtboy wiki tells me that Charlie was a painter decorator also.

In fairness Charlie was probably taking the frees that day for Cork. I’d imagine anyone thinking of taking 7 points from play off of Dick O Hara would probably have taken out life insurance first.
