Wow. I knew Norman had expressed his support for the gesture. I didn't realise how far that support went. Thank you for the link.

There's a brilliant documentary out there about it that I saw on BBC 3 or 4 a few years ago. Smith and Carlos were pallbearers at his funeral.

Never mind that, I can't believe you didn't mention the 2000 Sligo SFC Final!
