Galway v Kilkenny - All Ireland Hurling Final 2015

I did a quick google to find a famous kilkenny poet / poem. Best I could muster was this:

Hand, other hand, one, two,
Leg, other leg, one, two,
Head, nose, mouth, chin,
With white teeth inside my mouth.
Hand, other hand, one, two,
Foot, other foot, one, two,
Head, nose, mouth, chin,
With white teeth inside my mouth.

Itā€™s simple, but nice. Bless.

I once had a cat
I kicked it in the nuts
That was that

He claims to be from Tipp but pulls it off badly.
His yearning for attention makes the board
look on him sadly.

Itā€™s Brimmer Bradley.

He tried to paint Maroon and white as the baddie.
But maroon fucked the poor cunt
Like he had a fanny.

Itā€™s Brimmer Bradley.

His wife has aids after being raped by a tranny.
While His kids are retarded both physically
And mentally.

Itā€™s Brimmer Bradley.

Almost daily he spouts a shit filled melody.
And just like his kids,
Itā€™s easy to see he is a handy.

Itā€™s Brimmer Bradley.

Despite the goals
We gave them as a gift.

Wonderful & heartfelt :clap: :clap:

Waiting

Tis half an hour before the start, we are waiting patiently
From North and South and East and West the Semis for to see
And in among the gathered crowd four men they wait as well
And each would have his own particular story for to tell

My name is Padraic Kelly and Iā€™m getting on in years
And Iā€™ve followed Galway hurling with heartbreak and with tears
Oā€™er a span of fifty seasons, and I can call to mind
Great Galway teams that ended just a point or two behind
And I waited till the eighties to see the dreams come true
And in the spell of those ten years some wondrous times I knew
Iā€™ll see another victory for the men who wear maroon.

They call me Paddy Kelly from the fields around Killane
And I waited for the fifties as a boy and growing man,
And then bold Wexford hit the scene and set the hills alight
And victory was ours at last in the great All-Ireland fight.
Then once in ā€™68 we won and then the famine years,
And I waited since through tough defeats to hear the Wexford cheers.
ā€˜Tis a different kind of waiting now and thereā€™s hunger in my soul
To see another victory for the Purple and the Gold

Iā€™m known as Paudie Kelly, three miles from Patrickswell
And like the man before me, Iā€™ve a similar tale to tell.
For three and thirty summers Iā€™ve waited for to see
The Limerick Laurels raised on high by Grimes and company
Then the waiting game again came back for twenty years or more
And I waited six short minutes in nineteen ninety four
ā€œUnfinished businessā€ is the cry of Cary and his team
And two more games of hurling could fulfil the winning dream.

ā€˜Tis Patsy Kelly speaking from the glens around Glenarm
And I can tell you other three that waiting is no harm.
For my kindred all before me and myself and all my kin
Have waited for a hundred years to see an Antrim win.
And only twice in all that span ā€“ ā€™43 and ā€™89
Were Antrim there on Final Day and each time defeat was mine.
But we are good at waiting ā€“ itā€™s the patience of the heart,
If we have to wait forever weā€™ll year by year take part.

And the rest of Ireland waited to see what would betide
As the clash of ash was heard so sweet along the Liffeyside.

Had he and I but met
By some old ancient inn,
We should have set us down to wet
Right many a nipperkin!

But ranged as infantry,
And staring face to face,
I shot at him as he at me,
And killed him in his place.

I shot him dead becauseā€“
Because he was my foe,
Just so: my foe of course he was;
Thatā€™s clear enough; although

He thought heā€™d 'list, perhaps,
Off-hand likeā€“just as Iā€“
Was out of workā€“had sold his trapsā€“
No other reason why.

Yes; quaint and curious war is!
You shoot a fellow down
Youā€™d treat, if met where any bar is,
Or help to half a crown.

Dedicated to fran and piles.

Hardy. Reminds me of Sylvie. Legend.

What the fuck is going on here?

Throw up a poem or fuck off. Must be ethereal.

Link?

The hurling final is around the corner,
And stupid cunts are writing poems.
They better go back to hurling talk,
Or Iā€™ll go burn down their homes. Cunts.

Was in the paper version today

Hope we wont be odeing yo another bloody Sunday in 9 days

@maroonandwhite @balbec
Is this the one? It sure as shit gave me the gawks reading it today. What a cunt.

Yep thats it. Big gomey head on him in the picture as well.

Christ that is drivel, this cunt sounds like hed be a willing contributor from the crowd on up for the match. Great anecdote though. Meaghar dragged his hurl before the game. Played well in it.

The only person I know that likes his drivel is from KK. Today was a lesson in why. Donā€™t get me wrong, Iā€™m all for a bit of culture (see poetry likes above), but this scour is borderline offensive. If they had a picture of him giving Shefflin a dutch rudder I probably wouldnā€™t have been surprised.
