Fergal is something else.
Donie
Who is it?
Donny Horan. Must have been the EO hurling and football keeper for over 20 years up to about 2012. Lovely fella, fit as a fiddle. Heās only taken up the whistle and moving up the ranks. Was laughing as heād be disgusted to go off inj.
He continued as a sideline official.
I was surprised when Fergal knew what a mark was.
How did that final up lads by the way?
Did Fergal ālet it flowā?
I see the townies won. Wouldāve been valued in New Inn a lot more.
What was the standard like? Much of a crowd.
Huge crowd. Both sides of field and stand full. These mid week games draw big crowds as thereās nothing on.
I only saw 10 mins of ET when I was minding small EK who kicked up. Rockwell missed an open goal which cost them in ET.
I was reliably informed by BB and AāBāON that Rockwell threw it away in normal time also. Moloney missed a standard enough free to win it in normal time. Meant to be a good game. Disappointing for Rockwell to lose as itās their big cup.
Gilroy referencing the 30/30 sure itās common knowledge by now
I didnāt listen til the end, what is it?
ESPN are filming a 30/30 on Limerick, JP organised it
Ok.
In an upgrade from his usual gossip from the mart, the auld lad was conversing with (or eavesdropping on, I have you to ascertain) a few family members of ex panelists etc. at the PJ McManus thing.
The word is that there will be defections from the panel. There are issues with the management
I heard a few of the backroom team were moving on. Curran and Dunne. Didnāt hear anything about player defections although it could be assumed a few of the older lads would retire.
@peddlerscross, @endakenny or @Declan_Moffat would be more tuned into the politics than me.
Iāve heard Tommy Dunneās name mentioned but nothing concrete or from the usual place.
Bonnarās departure set to be imminent (may even be announced tonight)
It has long been known that this would be Tommy Dunnes last year. He leaves a gaping hole as he was basically keeping the whole show on the road coaching wise.
Bonnar liked by the players as he is a lovely fella but inter county hurling with Tipp is about winning.
The new appointment is Box Office
Una Healy?
