A classic piece of Croke Park commentary, and no hollow scores for Jim McGuinness
One piece of play from Dublin’s John Small against Galway did not impress Tomás Ó Sé at all. Photograph: Ryan Byrne/InphoTomás Ó Sé is a man who knows what he likes – and dislikes. That much was clear for anyone listening toAfter coming back from an update on the minor hurling final, host Des Cahill moved on to soccer and threw a curveball at the Kerryman.
“Forget about Taylor Swift, Shake it off at the Aviva, and come over here to Croke Park! Sweet Mother of Jesus” 🤣🙏🏻🎉 “It’s the greatest day that Galway football has seen in over two decades! And every man, woman and child stands to applaud Pádraic Joyce and his gallant Galway men. Sweet mother of Jesus! They have pulled off the unthinkable,” he declared.
Jim McGuinness, unusually, later stated in his autobiography that he had hoped McFadden would miss that chance.“I didn’t want it because he would have felt shallow. Nothing we stood for was in our performance. We would have been sneaking something out of it. We didn’t deserve it.”Tipperary minors’ gutsy All-Ireland MHC win has propelled them to the top of the minor roll of honour.
