In 1952 All Ireland the Maguire Brothers, Des & Liam played with Cavan and Brendan played with Meath.The Cavan bros mainly played in the back line Des at Corner aand Liam at Centre while Brendan played in centre field.As the 52 final went to a replay they may may have marked each at some stage during the two games.

[Border Fox]

The brothers who marked each other were John Tavey, who was playing Full-Forward for Monaghan, and Paddy Tavey was playing full back for Cavan. They were from Donaghmoyne in Monaghan

[Border Fox]

Yeah, John owned the Richmond alright, his son owns it now - he moved to Monaghan a few years ago and drives up every day.

Two quick questions actually

1 - Whats the name of the pavarotti song that was used for Italia '90

2 - Does anyone know of a website where i can get soundbytes off like for instance famous commentrys of sporting events like say when Geroge Hamilton says ' the nation holds it breath' as David O'Leary steps up to take the penalty against Romania  or when Andy Gray from Sky Sports says 'youuuuuuuuuuuuu beauty' in realtion to a wonder strike form Stevie Gerrard

[Shamrock Shore]

1. Nessum Dorma
2. Eh.....dangerhere.com

[The Real Laoislad]

Cheers thanks for that,That Pavarotti one has been wreaking my head....Don't ask!

[Shamrock Shore]

Actually LaoisLad Nessum Dorma means' No one sleeps'. Just in case you are stopped by the Gardai.

I watched Ireland v Italy in Italia Novante in Kielys in Donnybrook. I swear to this day it was the worst 2 hours of my life.

It got to a stage where wimmin, feckin wimmin, were using the gents to wee in.

I remember having a blazing row with some young D4 sort (now prob perma-tanna, bikini-waxed, mother of 3 and an SUV droiver) who decided to barge into the cubicle and me raging for a NO2

No - never again. Soccer/wimmin/pubs dont mix.

If ye want more rants on Irish soccer/Wimmin/Italia Novante/Euro 88 please don't hesitate.
