Speech

[tyroneman]

There was a spoof speech printed (in letters page I think?) of an early Gaelic life..............all blood and thunder about dying for the parish, blood being shed, bones broken etc etc with the payoff being it was delivered to the u-14 hurling team.

Does anyone remember it or have a copy of the article?

there was another years ago on the net  attriuted to ross goalie Shane Curran 'Cake' . But im not sure it was him as it was meant to be after a junior 'B' mid rroscommon winter league final or something and dont he play senior?

[Pietas]

the words 'play' and 'senior' have a rather different meaning in roscommon than the rest of the country
