Hup the city division. @Aristotle might disagree with the spot being on the otherside of the parish
Do you think they gave us the wrong cup?
Looks the same to me.
Thatâs our jersey as determined by our founding father the late great Dublin stalwart Noel Drumgoole, thereâs no âmoneyâ new or otherwise itâs called hard work over the last 54 years which Iâm proud to say I contributed to in a small way. When you come at my club expect something back.

I never heard that surname before is it Limerick
NaP have one of the nicest jerseys in the country. Takes something to make a jersey not too far off the rotten shade of Dublin work.
Iâm only winding you up. Congrats on the win.
Iâm looking forward to the Ballygunner match in 3 weeks. Thereâll be skin and hair flying.

No Iirc, Noel Drumgoole was a dub. Managed Limerick to the 1980 final. But my memory is scetchy so open to correction

I dunno what @peddlerscross is on about. 8k would be a savage attendance for Tipp county final. I agree with a lot he says, but feel sorry for how much the Rise of Limerick has mentally destroyed him.

Youâre leaving out one small detail.
There was 2 matches on in Pairc Ui Chaoimh yesterday. Same for the Cork Hurling Final two weeks ago.

I told ye the Kerry boys thought Fintan was useless
They could be going for 15 in a row in Limerick only they havenât the stomach for it. 2 in a row is the most they have done and they have had the best team in Limerick the last 10 years
Youâre giving it bick licks about the Cork county finala and attendances. Cork had two huge population centres playing, 2 traditional rivals facing each other in a final for the first time in years and in a county of half a millon people could only muster an attendance of 15,000. Pro rata, thatâs a fairy shite attendance.
For context, the population of Limerick county is just shy of 200,000 and Tipperary is just over 160,000. Doesnât make the Cork attendance all that impressive now, does it?

2 matches in Thurles both days too mate.
1.2 million people in Dublin and crowds are miniscule. 15,000 was impressive considering it was the worst day of the year.
In fairness, the crowds at Limerick club games have improved. Theyâd want to given the team they have.
They are still below most counties with the exception of Waterford whose dominance by Ballygunnar hasnât helped.
The big variable in county finals is the participants. In Tipp, 2 northern teams means you get less general interest from the other 3 divisions.
In Limerick, NAP donât command much of a following. If a Kildimo or NCW could break the ceiling it would draw a huge crowd.
Monaleen could rent a huge amount of yummy mummies for the day also.

Whatâs the combined population of Togher and Blackrock?
So the Tipp final and Cork final both had two matches and the blowhards are trying to have a pop off Limerick with a standalone attendance of 8059
