Oireland v Los Pumas, highlight of the year.
On an international level it has to be Johnny Walters dragging us to the Euros
On a national level Limericks u-21 Hurling victory, though the final was a bit of a damp squib. Just the tonic after the utter dross the seniors put out.
Long’s equalizer against Poland
the home game against Poland
Walter’s goal v Georgia and a real feeling that fk we’re actually back in this thing
Germany game was on a different level and one i havent really absorbed yet
westmeath v meath and yer man’s goal ( the highlight of a truly dismal GAA season. notable exception to cork/kerry, kerry/tyrone and the LSFC club final
off topic but the munster hurling final this year was a watershed moment for me, it was a horrible game i thought, hurling is in a rotten place right now, i cant even find a decent club game to go to at the moment
Packed like sardines into the stand in Ennis to see Limerick dispose of Clare in the U21 Munster Final, an experience suitably enhanced by stopping in for “de one” to let the traffic go…
Beating Offaly. The sheer elation on the pitch after was outstanding. Laois hurling don’t get too many good days and even less in recent years.
Gods make their own importance…
Luis Suarez’s sustained brilliance on the association football field.
The Martin Adams-Glen Durrant World Darts Championship semi-final.
Liverpool’s tremendous run in February and March when we knew we were going to win the league.
The Dublin-Mayo semi-finals. Box office.
Superb usage of PK here.
Maurice Shanahan goading that cunt Liam Rushe.
Beating Germany and later qualifying for the Euros, U21s winning the AI and the Patriots beating the Seahawks in the Superbowl!
Best moments from sporting events I attended:
Ireland v Germany: Unreal, unbelievable. The team becoming more confident and the crowd getting louder the longer it stayed scoreless and then the goal until the glorious crescendo at full time. It was tremendous to be there to witness it all. Wonderful scenes that put a smile on my beautiful face for hours afterwards.
Ireland v Bosnia: Expectations levels were heightened here and I anticipated us going through based on the first leg. But another smashing display and tumultuous occasion in the home John Delaney built for Irish football.
Dublin v Mayo (replay): High quality, thrilling game of football which ebbed and flowed until Dublin pulled away / Mayo shit their togs in the closing stages.
Damefirth winning in Kilbeggan on the Friday followed up by Pierlow winning on the Sunday in Tipp
England bowling Australia out for 60 in 18.3 overs at Trent Bridge to win the 4th test and regain the Ashes.
Watching Kilmallock in Croke Park. Pity about the result.
The second half of the tipp match. Ill never get over not being there for it. I must have watched it twenty times after.
