Galway goalie was fouled trying to get back to the goal. Correct free out to Galway. Jaysus that was a great fucking day.

‘Two bald men fighting over a comb’ springs to mind.

Which one are you referring to?

Breaking_my_balls · April 25, 2019, 9:17am

That fuckin ape @Sidney
That @anon7035031 cunt is as bad

I’d ban both of the wankers

mikehunt · April 25, 2019, 9:21am

JBM or are you too young?

backinatracksuit · April 25, 2019, 9:25am

He was past his best, I never rated him as much as others, lovely man though

Sidney:

anon7035031:

He will always be Dent to me. Once again you out yourself, this actually required no effort on my behalf.

I’m not sure how I could “out myself” on a mystery matter when you’ve just admitted you were making a private joke to yourself, which nobody else except yourself gets

It’s very coincidental that your imaginary nickname for the referee of a hurling game 30 years ago just happens to be the same name as the Countdown lexicographer

Quite the conundrum

I wasn’t talking about the final as you well know

Delaney lasted about three seasons on that Tipperary team

It must have been quite the irony for Galway folk that Keady’s replacement bore the same name as one of Tipperary’s greatest folk heroes and was also their best player on the day

If a few more established Galway players had showed the same attitude instead of acting like petulant children, who knows, maybe they would have won

Alas, they didn’t because they displayed the same pathologens that have bedivilled Galway hurling since the beginning of time - fear of winning and excuse making

Maybe while you’re trying to get the result of the 1989 semi-final overturned you could try getting the result of the 1983 All-Ireland football final overturned too

See how it goes anyway

Galway weren’t the defiant baker’s dozen in '89 anyway, more like they went down meekly yet petulantly to their fate

Paul Delaney was a starter for Tipperary from 1987 to 1995, stop bullshitting.

Sidney · April 25, 2019, 10:04am

Please list all Tipperary starting line ups from 1987 to 1995

glasagusban · April 25, 2019, 10:11am

I started off on this but having to choose between Reale, McDonagh, Hickey, Finn, and English or Carey, Houla, Dodge and Lynch or Mulcahy, shaughs, Gillane and Quigley for two spots each was too hard so I gave up.

Mullach_Ide · April 25, 2019, 10:39am

Ask me bollix

Aristotle · April 25, 2019, 11:00am

Shefflin is the best hurler I’ve ever seen, and Tommy Walsh is close behind.

A third is hard to choose, JJ Delaney is probably up there but I’ll be fucked if I’m picking 3 Kilkenny players.

Hard to choose between the likes of Eoin Kelly, DJ, Ken and the likes. Not much mention of John Mullane, who is as talented a forward as I’ve ever seen. I could definitely go for him as number 3.

A lot of hugely talented players around at the moment too, but you have to judge them at the end of their careers, I think.

anon32894817 · April 25, 2019, 11:04am

Seamus Callanan? Ffs he was beaten up a stick by far various players including Richie mc, daithi Burke and jj Delaney. A fella of dubious character too. I wouldn’t have him in the top 5 tipp forwards of the last 25 years.
