As St. Kierans College, the other team he manages, is out in Croke Cup semi-final action at 12.45 pmon the same day.
They take on Cashel Community School in St. Brendans Park, Birr with KCLR’s own Brendan Hennessey and Micheal Walsh bringing you all the coverage with thanks to Tyreland, Cuffsgrange. I’d say Brendan will be in his element commentating in a stadium named after him.
He won’t have to much time to bask in the glory though, as he better get his bags packed because KCLR is shipping him off to the UK the next day.
Yes, Carlow are out in round five action of the league against London, so himself and Willie will be adding the lyrics to the music that is football with thanks to Dan Morrissey & Co.
VICTORY!
