Munster Senior Hurling Championship 2023 (Part 1)

Bonnar will be told empty and hit everything for the first half. Tipp will introduce a heap of finishers off the bench when Limerick start to tire.
It was a grand ould run. They owe us nothing

Did ye live in Tipp for a while?

I can never understand parents trying to get the kids to support counties they don’t live in over their own

No never, the daughter just wants to side with her mother over me.

Clare v Offaly 98?

Ready to leave Dublin for Thurles, giddy with anticipation and excitement.
Today will tell us a lot about Limerick’s trajectory for the season.
Hoping for a great match and good luck to both teams and spectators.
Hon Limerick!

I’d say Tipp v Limerick in 1997 is probably the largest non-Munster Final Munster Championship crowd at Semple Stadium in its current incarnation.

49k I think. Not far off a full house. But not a sell out.

Semple Stadium went from 59/60k capacity in 1984 to 54k around the late 90s to 50k to 45k to 46k now?

Fucking fire wardens have it fucked

I hope youre a contented man on that train back!
Going to be a great atmosphere. Thurles my favourite place in the country to watch a match. No pints with the driving but will soak up the atmosphere and the buzz.

First we take Thurles, then the World

You’d miss the streams of piss under the stand. A real smell of championship

A proper GAA occasion requires the smell of piss, alcohol, cigarette smoke, burger vans and exhaust fumes from ageing buses.

Smell of glue too when you are a drunken teenager on the terrace

You want that lingering musty guinness fart aroma to be thick on the air
