DUNDALK PRODUCED ANOTHER outstanding European performance on Thursday to snatch a last-gasp draw against AZ Alkmaar. David Panda Byrne posted this comment before the match, you can only imagine how he felt after the game:

But smithersdescribed how he suffered through the final few minutes:
Think I aged about 10 years for the last nine minutes, well done Dundalk.

After it was revealed that Tipperary’s All-Ireland winning forward Patrick ‘Bonner’ Maher was heading to Syria for six months in a peace-keeping role, Ray Laffan thinks he knows how he was offered the position:
Syria: ‘help needed things are getting out of hand’. UN: ‘don’t worry we’re sending in de Bonner’.

I’ve a nice quid on Dublin here.

Nobody and I mean nobody external I have ever brought to a game, can get their head around the fact that fans mix together without a care or worry in the world. A facet that a nation and organisation should hold dear.

When the victorious Kilkenny team brought the O’Duffy Cup on a visit to Crumlin’s Children Hospital on Monday, Michael Tynan summed up how we all felt:
