Can't remember the year 2009 maybe when we lost to Kerry in the backdoor by a point. David kelly had a penalty saved.  Without galvin that day Kerry would have definitely lost.

Wish him well in his retirement

He was brilliant that day when all around him was falling apart. Think he might have kicked 4 or 5 points from play. Christ, that was some day. The Kerry people were literally falling over themselves to sympathise with us afterwards saying we should have won and it was genuine. We told them - "ye'll probably go on and win Sam" (they did) but they didn't think so.

Weren't Sligo still ahead even when D Kelly's penalty was saved?

I think we were a point ahead but couldn't be sure.
