RIP @Faldo a great man. I’d read two lines from his golf selections every week then do a deep dive on his selections and realise he’d boxed it all off. A great man for the majors and loved those clips of him skinning a few lads on the soccer field. While passing young he looked like he still packed a good bit in while able whether it be sports, family or home improvements. Sleep easy a chara

It takes a long time to get to 40. Then you get to 60 in no time

Youth is wasted on the young…

I was very neutral on it until I saw your post.

100% on Galway tomorrow for that man.

I dreamt it’d wear the jersey
On all ireland final day
It’d stand out there in croke park
With a mighty part to play

We’d come out of the tunnel
To a great big galway roar
We’d have our picture taken
Head down to the goal

We’d line up with the captain
And march behind the band
And when they played the anthem
We’d face the flag, above the stand

Cos me heart is in maroon and white
It’ll stick with what i know
Maroon and white forever
No matter where i go

And when the ball comes towards me
I turn and head for goal
And i stick it in the corner
Like a bullet hard and low

And i dreamt it’d hold the medal
So precious in my hand
With the people all around me
And the ghosts up in the stand

Then on monday evening
We’d bring the cup back home
Bonfires would be blazing
All along the road

Cos me heart is in maroon and white
It’ll stick with what i know
Maroon and white forever
In hailstones, rain or snow

Yes maroon and white forever
That’s what i always say
Maroon and white of galway
Forever and a day.

A phenomenal song. A song I’ve tried to rework for our own but it can’t. It’s wonderful

It couldn’t work any other way. I mean, the lyric ‘I’ll stick with what I know’ is so inherently perfect, it can’t be tampered

All of Galway looked to be in at it last night. Looked brilliant. I’m hoping mad I wasn’t there.
