The Cats Turn Out Trumps Again At Croke Park

The first Sunday of September, the day hurling fans and two panels of hurlers wait for, came today. The venue was Croke Park and the weather was dismal, misty, then sunny, and then rainy. All the excitement of All-Ireland day and all the weather of all the seasons.

So, I'm sure you know at this stage, the Liam McCarthy cup is going back to Killkenny for the thirtieth time and for the second year running. I was recently in Killkenny town and I am now imagining those narrow streets absolutley exploding with people wanting to catch a glimpse of Henry Shefflin or Eddie Brennan.

The Cats overcame the poor Shannonsiders. Awh! What can a Dub like me do? Well, we can wait and watch the football.
