Fuck him. I have a clean conscience. I was never much good but I never left my club.

Powerful documentary. If rte made of the likes of that and the bloody Sunday one I’d actually pay the TV licence

Maybe if you paid it they’d have the money to make more like it?
Hahaha fair dues to you for honesty 
It wasn’t bad but there’s a terrible lack of footage of Ring. A pity as he was undoubtedly brilliant.

Chicken and egg here. I stand by my viewpoint looking at tubs and his likes. There is a place for the national broadcaster
What if he held a magnetic whiteboard over his head while he was roaring?

Real pity unfortunately he was 15 years too early for rte to capture some. Jes medal haul is something else
I was delighted to see John Fitzgibbon featured too in the documentary

Gerald Macarthy is very softly spoken but I heard he wasn’t your typical cork hurler and was well able to dish it out ?
That was a lovely story Frank or was it Dr Con told about Ring in the dressing room before playing Kilkenny.
“Kilkenny have never beaten Cork, when we’re ready, and we’re ready today”.
Fuck me that was a powerful program

As a man with proud Aghada roots I can confirm that ‘Ringy’ was 2 ends of a cunt. He was also as thick as dishwater but @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy has already made sure we know that.
Donal Óg roared it in the parade behind the band at the Munster Final in ‘99.
(Could have been AI final)
wikapedia says his brothers fell out with the club around that time as well, one went to Ballinacurrra, one went to Russell Rovers and Christy to the Glen
Probably written by a grand nephew of his

Before the Munster Quarter Final in 2017, Tipp went in as reigning champions while Cork were hopeless the previous year.
Yet in the parade, there was a Cork auld lad behind me roaring, “Remember who we fucking are boys”.
It was no surprise to see Kingston, Coleman, Fitzgibbon and Meade rip it up afterwards.
it was , a good half hour too short though
Ah they fudged the transfer to the Glen and the few controversial on field incidents.
Watching it on the plus one here. Is the grandson any use?
