Apart from all the Galway hurling memories already mentioned I'll rememeber this as the year of "Jimmy's winning matches", the best GAA song since the mid '90's ( I'm talking about "The Joe dooley Song" and "The Purple and Gold" obviously ).

My father has just been diagnosed with it. He's aged 82 but a very fit man. He's undergoing tests etc at the moment to determine the extent and therefore the type of treatment. We're all keeping our fingers crossed that it'll all be ok.

That's very bad news about Skehill. I don't think he should play if he's not right and after googling shoulder dislocations I can't see how he would be right. I came across this on ehow.com. They say the typical full recovery time ranges from 4 to 12 weeks
"Treatment and Timeline
The initial phase of treatment is to push the head of the humerus back into the shoulder joint. This is most easily done immediately after the dislocation, as after 30 minutes or so the joint becomes swollen and stiff. If this happens, IV pain medication or muscle relaxants may be necessary to push the joint back into place. Afterward, the doctor will place the injured arm in a sling which will immobilize the joint. This sling should be worn for two or three weeks. After that, physical therapy will be prescribed to continue the healing process."
I hope he's fine and has a stormer again but playing lads who are carrying injuries is a tactic that usually backfires. I'm not sure who our sub keeper is, Ciaran Callanan? Maybe someone on here knows. It might be time to show a bit of faith in him anyway.
Wasn't he in goal when they won the League 2 years ago?
