What an awesome performance from Tipp. Seamie Callanan is an unbelievable hurler. Lived in the shadow of Kilkenny for so long, but absolutely walloped them this afternoon. Delighted this evening

That was a fantastic game of hurling sone amazing play ans bravery throughout from both sides if ever someone wanted to watch a game for the first time that's a fine one to start with
Swapped a few messages with my mum over in Gortnahoe last night. That win has been a long time coming, especially when you are living right next to Urlingford in Kilkenny. There was a small invasion from the Premier County last night, to celebrate with their neighbours as they've done to us for way too long!!
What a day. McGrath brother number 3 lifted the minor title in the curtain raiser as well. Going to hospital in the morning to get the smile surgically removed from my boat.
I used to go to the Gaelic Sports Ground in Avery Hill Road as a kid. You could stand on a bank & watch Gaelic football on one side & hurling on the other.
Just a thought here that is maybe a bit of an in-joke for GAA fans, but not joke in funny sense. You know this Mayo curse and the funeral thing, do you reckon the Charlton team bus didn't stop for a hearse somewhere up round Avery Hill in late 2013?
Having a few beers & a meal with a few friends early on Saturday in Blackheath. They're then off to the Valley (£5 is still too much for me to give Roly) & I'll head to the Bull in Woolwich for the warm up to the 5pm throw-in.
Giving Roland a fiver at the weekend for reasons of father in law wanting to go, but leaving early. Might also be doing The Bull though have twice watched Mayo lose in there and my county Fermanagh lose too, so not a lucky stomping ground for me. Don't know The Porterhouse. Reckon the Bugle in Charlton might be showing the game because it has all the sports channels.

On a day like today, the best team sport in the world.
They will be dancing in the streets of Borrisoleigh tonight and all week long. Wish I was with my family there! Well done Brendan and the boys.
Up Tipp!!
Not a patch on the hurling, but pleased Mayo got back for another crack.
