I’ve to drive down to Cashel tomorrow*buddy. Maybe we could link up in the topaz there for a lunch thing?
Now. It’s Monday. I’ll be fuckig sick and I only have to count the actual steps into someone’s house in Cashel. So Google Earth can be my friend as I sleep in the car park… While I’m counting those steps
For the day that’s in it - 101 years ago…
Has there ever been a finer singer of a ballad than the late Liam Clancy---- I doubt it.
Unreal unbelievable
The best day of my life
I called into the galtee inn in Cahir on the way home for the best steak I ever eat. An unreal day. Unbelievable. When I approached the monument I broke down crying but had to hide it from my father. Then I let out a primeval roar like Mel Gibson in brave heart when he was getting executed. A roar for Irish freedom

Spurs shat themselves.
Galtee Inn does decent grub 
The Brits / IRFU Battalion got massacred on Mount Street Bridge on this day in 1916. I stopped at the monument to pay tribute to the Irish volunteers earlier.
I’d be surprised if that didn’t get a nice post.
On this day in 2014 Gerrard slipped, Ba scored and the title was lost.
Thats a lovely monument. I walked by it for many years before I realised it to my shame.
On this day 42 years ago, 27 April 1974, former Man U player Denis Law scored the winner for Man City in the Manchester derby and all but consigned Man U to a relegation which was confirmed shortly afterwards. Man U hooligans invaded the pitch and rioted in a vain but futile attempt to have the match abandoned.
Thats a clamping
This day yesterday, pal.
He was substituted immediately and looked genuinely disgusted after scoring.
Results elsewhere that day meant United were relegated regardless of their result.
United won Division 2 at a canter the following season with an average home attendance of over 48,000, amazing fans of an amazing club.
United would go on to lose the 1976 FA Cup final to underdogs Southampton managed by the mercurial
Lawrie McMenemy, a year later United returned to Wembley to deny Liverpool the treble with goals from Stuart Pearson and Jimmy Greenhoff (whose brother Brian RIP also played, as did my favourite player of the time Steve Coppell) as Martin Buchan raised the famous old trophy. One year later in 1978 Manchester United celebrated their centenary…

4 days later, Liverpool won the European Cup. The first of five.
My recollection is that Law effectively substituted himself. Walked off the field because he was so upset.
Thats a beautiful addendum.
That was in 2002, mate. Easy to confuse the two years.
