The greatest Sports Moment of the decade (2010 - 2019)

Especially coming from the centre back

In no particular order:-

  • Conor McManus’s point vs Tyrone in the Ulster Championship 2018

4:45 in this:-

1:00:50 in this:-

As a dishonourable mention, the forum did well that no-one mentioned this:-

The most excited I got all decade was probably dislocating my shoulder in Lille whenever Robbie Brady scored. It popped back in but then about 9 months later came out again and wouldn’t go back in that time.

Speaking of McManus, when he overturned Neil McGee in the Ulster Final, slotted it over the bar then roared in his face, that was very satisfying

Some county for its size, absolutely remarkable. Defying all the ‘funding’ arguments with the super teams.

I don’t believe there has been any rubby nominations yet @anon61878697

Ireland being knocked out of three WCs was nominated as 3 great moments

Joe canning got a goal, and I can’t even remember who it was against, but it was in the championship, a long ball came in over his left shoulder as he was running toward goal to the right of the square. He caught it and buried it so quickly that, watching on telly, I wasn’t sure what happened until I saw the umpire furiously waving the green flag. Even then I thought he must be mistaken. It was some score.

Against KK - unreal.

I thought it was but wasn’t sure.

I was watching it in a bar in KK — I thought as purveyours (is this the right word?) of the game, that they’d appreciate the beauty of it —and it was a thing of pure beauty ---- but it got nothing from them.

You were in kk mate. The first two letters give a clue as to what they think of outsiders.

Liverpool winning the premier league was memorable

The very sad passing of Bob Willis reminded me of this

Ireland v England 2011 Cricket World Cup

What Kevin O’Brien did that day was and will always remain astonishing

In 3 successive world cups from 07 to 15 we beat Pakistan England and WI. Some achievement and no doubt contributed massively to achieving Test recognition.

The celebrations in the stand were even more memorable

Hands down greatest sporting moment of the decade was HWH Bunclody winning the Wexford Intermediate hurling final in 2010.
