Corofin were on a different level today but it was still head scratching result and performance from Clann naGael, especially when you consider Brigids brought Corofin with both Burkes playing to extra time last year.
That Clann player didn’t deserve a red.
@Eamonn Ó Maoldomhnaigh: ah come off it, surely had to be red, he lost the plot and knew it himself, didn’t even complain.
@mike Kennedy: I was waiting for you!
He should have got 3 reds!
@mike Kennedy: Amazed that 8 people ( assuming they are people) agreed with me!
@Eamonn Ó Maoldomhnaigh: he should have been sent off in the country final as well.
@Eamonn Ó Maoldomhnaigh: you got me Good, hook line and sinker!!!! aaaaahh
