Their term is up so Iâd imagine they wonât be renewing.
Our incompetent County Board just donât know what do.
Heâs alright but has zero edge to him.You need a tinker not a priest.
Apparently they never delivered on their promises to bring in funds. Covid obviously didnât help but even the basic payments were problematic.
I think having DK involved stunk after his carry on after we won in 19.

Agreed. We donât need another egotistical narcissist. Maherâs the man.
Ah here. Say what you want about OâShea but his managerial tenure was not a disaster.
'13 the outlier with the qualifier defeat in Nowlan (what would have happened if Lar didnât get injured?)
'14 Hawkeye and new penalty rule away from winning an AI.
'15 last minute one point defeat in AI semi v Galway.
I agree he was more suited to the coaching role than managing but I think he did fairly alright in his three years

There were some great days following Tipp under OâShea.
The 2013 Qualifier was the most iconic occasion of the last 20 years following Tipp
The day against Cork in front of 70k in Croke Park was a great day too.

The fucking powder pissers jeering Larry when he went off injured. He was primed to do the divil but for the injury that day. The cunts knew it too. Horrible bastards.

I have never come across a more poisonous shower of supporters as Kilkenny that night.
They were worse than the West Ham fans at Upton Park when I went to see Man United play there once upon a time.

I wouldnât look over the ditch at a soccer match so Iâll have to take your word for that. But I was very surprised at hurling people behaving the way they did that day.

The Kilkenny crowd are like a more calculated clever version of the Clare anti-Tipp brigade.
No respect.
A gang of them were giving Lar dogs abuse on the terrace early on. Really bad now, low stuff.
When Lar scored the goal one of my friends celebrated a bit too vigorously and they threatened to kick the shit out of us.
Never experienced anything like it before or since.

I normally stay away from terraces, better view from the stands but the carry on was no better up there either. I was never so early for a match in my life, open seating made for a mad dash into the stands with people throwing down markers for their friends like Germans with sun loungers on holiday.

Sheedy walked away, Cahill turned it down, Egan prefers to go to tier two with Wexford. I thought the Tipp job was the biggest job in hurling har?

It was a warm day. A rare day when I wasnât driving. Had a few glorious pints beforehand. Thatâs as good as the day got

We fucked up with Cahill. Fucking Port cunts.
Sheedy wanted one year
Cahill wanted four.
CB wanted someone for three.
Egan was never in running.
It was just downright nasty from the start.
I remember being in the shed at Kilmallock cc @balbec vs Thurles Sars in the 2012 Munster club just after Larâs book was printed and the Kilmallock lads engaged in some good humoured banter with Lar. Theyâd be ordinary, decent people down there.
Iâm surprised Kilkenny werenât asked to play behind closed doors for a few years after that qualifier.

I drove that day. I watched a full camogie match before hand. Iâd say it was the biggest attendance at a camogie match ever in Nowlan park.
