1996 Reasons Why Wexford will beat Limerick

Sport
201

Who are you? Who are you? I’ll tell you who you are. When I’m finished speaking we are going to walk out of Wexford. Our goal is that the next time we set foot in this, our county, we will be Leinster Champions. On Friday night there was a report, on television, from Offaly and in mentioning the word tradition they sang their anthem. It made me think about tradition and its importance. And about this fantastic county of ours. A county of which we should be so proud. From the beach outside there to Courtown, Gorey, Ardamine, Blackwater, Curracloe, Wexford, Rosslare, Kilmore, Cullenstown, Fethard and The Hook. And back again to Ross, Mount Leinster, Rathnure and Enniscorthy. And of course Boolavogue. That’s who we are and that’s where we come from.

Our people have real songs to sing. When they question the blood in our veins don’t you ever forget that our county has a proud past and when other counties failed, ours was the only one of 32 counties wherein the people, your forefathers, rose and shook off the chains of bondage. Listen to ‘Boolavogue’ and ‘The Boys of Wexford’ and then think of Offaly. Why should we fear Offaly or Kilkenny or any other Irish county? Nothing in our past suggests that we should. Look at your names. Great Wexford names. Think of all the memories that this county of ours holds for you. For many of the bones of our nearest and dearest lie buried in the clay beneath your feet. Like yours will, much sooner than you ever thought. This is our chance to make history. For which you will never be forgotten. You come from a fighting tradition and don’t ever forget it.

Now we are going to walk up this road in silence. Out of our county. With the promise to each other that we will fight to the last – And remember! It is only for 70 minutes. Not like your forefathers who had to fight for days on end. We will promise to give absolutely everything in order that the next time we set foot on Wexford soil we will carry back the Leinster Cup.

Today we are playing for a way of life. Breathe in now, long and hard and as you walk, think of yourself since childhood, of all the matches you played, all of your friends both alive and gone, and make this promise to yourself. Today is the day we will be proud again. And remember:
“We are the boys of Wexford who fought with heart and hand.”

That’s real tradition. Let’s go!

Wexford lads are sound, except fort the lad that called me a bagel, the gay dogs and ArtFoley.

I doubt youll be too fond of larry murphy either when he cleans you out in a defamation suit

205

It’s only a game lads you have every chance, it will mean fuck all to us if we lose that’s obviously why a lot of us are getting our shouting done before the big event.

But for ye to lose to us again, the effect that will have on the psyche of this team could be catastrophic for Limerick Hurling

Nope, not stocked in BT. Theyre freely available on inns quay in d7

There’ always hope sport. My confidants have confidence in our team which is good enough for me.

Normally, I am not as pedantic as this, but you are a good lad for pulling others up on it.

Actually, if you were being pedantic you would have noticed that i was pulling people up on elementary spelling mistakes, not punctuation.

Foley is the worst on here for the spelling mistakes, I think he was being ironic. At least I hope so. Its difficult to know with him.

214

Yeah MBB has a fetish for punctuation rather than spelling, dont you sport?

Bravo to you :clap::clap::clap: Just for you , I will google a 10,000 word document with a superfluity of misspellings which I will copy and paste here on Sunday evening. Something to keep that little hamster on a wheel between your ears eager while you wallow in a pool of your own shit after the humiliating pounding Limerick will administer to ye fools in Thurles. :D:D:D:D:D

He copied that speech from Any Given Sunday.[/QUOTE]
referring to a county as a place of pride and great people who came from your county and referencing fighting foreign powers when the self same foreign powers created the county administrative system that you are using to derive your pride and position in Irish history and culture

:confused:

In simpler terms without England conquering Ireland, Wexford as a concept wouldn’t exist.

Yes
