Pre-match ritual is eating a packet of jaffa cakes. Disappointed it wasn't something more agricultural.

Francie will always be a legend to me. Gutted his pre match ritual wasn't eating a loaf of wheaten bread with real butter.

One of many legends of 02 that will ultimately assume diety status.Will never forget his immortal words to Peter Mc Donnell when he retired in 08. "There's plenty of fine young men in Armagh,let them at it!"

Was it 08 v Fermanagh where he nearly had a shot for a point?

Tough cookie.

Gourley looked as if he had run into a brick wall in that video.

An admirable critter who Armagh fans lionised.... nice to hear him talk.   Joe Kernans genius spotted him and made him a mainstay, any other Armagh manager may not have used him.  He was as tough and committed as they come and done job after job efficiently well.   Kernan made him an intercounty player, Mulligan as he admits himself made him an All Star. Had the odd dive in him as we seen against Cavan to get Pearse Mc Kenna  sent off and is referred to in that dedicated site, but rightly will be remembered for his uncompromising football.  Unfortunately the modern game will weed these characters out... and we will all be the poorer for it.     
Oh for the stadrad of excellence of Tyrone V Armagh, Kerry V Tyrone in 2005.  There will never be two better games.

Not the first time he has spoken to the world! Famously granted RTE a brief interview after a game in Croke Park when he was in his pomp

Great to discover, when we learn Francie has a tongue, that it's in his cheek.
