Galway - quadruple travails part 2

The bit where he trips the lad in the white helmet is epic.

Hadn’t watched that in years. It’s still amazing. A poke in the balls, a flake of the hurl and a good boot to the shins. Result? Absolutely nothing. You have a penalty. Play on.

OTB would do an hour alone on it if it happened today.

I was at a stag once where Jonny was in attendance. At the end of the night he went to the local chipper and requested sausages. They had none left and Johnny wasn’t happy. Things escalated and he tried to lift the counter off its hinges. The constabulary were called and a non drinking attendee was instructed to take him home. They were given an escort to the county border.

I thought that was going to turn into a “Crouchies having his Nachos” story, but it was even better.

I would love to have heard what the conversation with his umpires was.

One of the most baffling non-calls of all time.

One of them has a business in Loughrea

One of the lads was selling town GAA tickets not long after the 06 final and Mike Conway (who reffed it) was in one of the pubs. The lad went up ‘how ya Mike, will you buy a ticket?’ ‘Ah ffs, haven’t I given ye enough’.

Good man Chappy

Three or four thousand for the replay

I marked Christy in an u21 match nearly 30 years ago. Dined out for years on the fact that I held him scoreless, not drawing any attention to the fact he was playing centre back.
