Thai Tims O'Donovans

CORK BROTHERS GARY and Paul O’Donovan have won the hearts of the nation since claiming silver medals at the Rio Olympics.

The rowers, who were second in the final of the men’s lightweight double sculls last week, have shown a refreshing confidence and energy in a number of interviews during the Games.

The Thai Tims, a class of school children taught by Irishman Paul Lennon in the province of Chantaburi, have sung songs about Celtic legends and the Irish national team in the past.

Their latest tune, entitled ‘Pull Like a Dog’, is a tribute to the Skibbereen siblings.
