Dublin V Galway LSHC 2015 QF

Sport
1

There is an almost haunting silence in Galway hurling circles ahead of this game.

Recent challenges against Clare and Limerick have taken its toll on the team. David Burke, Daithi Burke & Niall Burke are all out with Canning and Hanbury nursing knocks.

Expectations are low.

Galway by 4.

Suppose it makes a change from knocking nurses.

Will you be seething for the whole 70 minutes mate? Or do you envisage a reprieve at any stage?

5

6

Good loosener for Dublin before the serious stuff starts. Dublin by 6 or 7.

Couldn’t care less about it myself mate.

Where’s this game on, lads?

:eek::eek:

Will you be taking any protective measures mate? Likely to be surrounded by a fair few muldoons and roasters from the nether regions of Connacht.

This is akin to @dodgy-keeper going to a rugby game. I wish you well.

12

@The Selfish Giant is a regular at GAA matches

13

Do you plan on taking a break from the whining and fault finding at half time mate?

14

I recall BRECSC forfeiting their place in the knockout rounds of a Dunshaughlin Celtic Supporters Clubs football blitz tournament because @The Selfish Giant couldn’t be persuaded to miss a few minutes of an early round Leinster championship match.

Brolly in the Independent yesterday

[I]Michael Duignan tells the story of his Offaly debut in the All-Ireland semi-final against Galway, in 1986. Duignan was only 18 years old and was slated to mark Brendan Lynskey, a fabled hard man.

After the anthem, young Michael walked nervously over to the grizzled veteran and stretched out his hand. Lynskey glared at him curiously and said, “A mhaicín, what are you doing here? The minor match is over”. A few seconds later, the ball was thrown in, at which Lynskey drove his elbow into the teenager’s nose, before taking off down the field to receive the ball, leaving Duignan standing in a daze.

As the Offaly man put it, it was ‘Welcome to the big time, baby.’[/I]

@Gman[/USER], [USER=110]@Fran[/USER] and myself are all set for the party mate. We might need to bring [USER=179]@artfoley[/USER] along so we have a driver. Does [USER=230]@croppy mind keeping him occupied again?
