Was in pitch tonight.Had tay and jaffacakes .Myself,Minogue,Seamin,Johnnie,Declan ,Billy and Mc Kenna prating as the lads trained.Fresh from the AGM of the Fair Committee after repelling all would be boarders .Mc Kenna (Sean ) informed me that ageism never took hold in Dunderry,as Danny Mc Gourty ,at 81 years has been elected head honcho over all matters of a sheep nature relating to the Fair.Great room for the P.R.O.Gus Martyn to make hay,if you get my drift.
The growing tradition of supplying the players with these modest perquisites is a scant gesture for all the effort they put in.They seem to appreciate it.Can,t praise Conleth O Neill,John Brady and Barry Sheridan,Flange Mc Guinness ,Mickey Horan ,Geerry Mc Laughlin and Billy enough for the huge effort they are putting in.And Mickey Casey who never misses a night at training.
Over 35 training tonight ,swelled by the number of students returning from college for the weekend.For the hurling dual players this was the third night this week and a match to come on Sunday against Senechalstown at 2.30 in their ground.These lades make some effort.Hats off.
The minor footballers got a walkover from Clanna Gael last Saturday.I hate to see this happen as they are our nearest neighbours and hope that this was a temporary blip.The minors are out again this Saturday at home to Curragha at 3.00 I think.Must cast an eye over them and maybe do a report.
Was pleasantly surprised to hear a very harmonious rendition of the "Holdem" song wafting from one of the dressing rooms when passing".The Lady of the Handbags and Inion an Breithimh have a future in that area if all else fails. Ask A.C. and K.L.who were spellbound.
The club is seeking E.50.00 donations to cover annual membership ,free entrance to all home games and inclusion in a free draw for those who are not yet members.This money is badly needed as the Club is stripped for cash after purchasing the three acres at the top of the field behind the top goal.
Finally the Official Club website will be opening soon.You will be spoiled for choice as this one ,which is solely my own ,will continue to do what it does.
