Connacht GAA

I did, I went up as far as my award too.

And I also did the S&C course, not in that we do, we run in Connacht GAA.

It wasn't to be an S&C coach, but it was to have an understanding of it.

My undergraduate was in animal science, in ag science in UCD.

I've had people tell me they've got 625 points and they're leaving.

Someone else told me, you know, about a difficulty they had at home, uh, and coming to sport was the only release they had.

And, and that's the-- do you know what? I'm also a coach developer with Connacht GAA, and I do a lot of the, the being a coach and how to coach.

And I don't-- I, I'm not-- I'm, after leading our ladies to relegation in, in Sligo, in Tourist Strand, so I'm not a-- I'm no master coach.

Just give me a, like a little tap behind the ear, just keep me in line.

So among some of the things that, uh, I needed to be corrected on, I'm not sure how I was pronouncing Jim Lydon's name, the GAA correspondent for the Sunday Indo, or as Connacht GAA correspondent for Sunday Indo, but it's definitely Jim Lydon, not Layden or Lane.

Uh- Ned Quinn, I mentioned Ned Quinn in the, in the course of the episode.

Didn't mark Christy Ring in the All-Ireland hurling final.

Jim, I know you've been with a lot of teams in your life, but they ...

The Connaught showed some enormous character there, Jim, because when they went four points down at the end, even I had felt they were in bother.

Yeah, I suppose we did ourselves, Nicky, to be fair about it.

But, uh, I don't know how it is about these lads, but they, they, they build these mountains up to climb.

Yeah, this is the last stop, really.

We've been in the Munster Council, Ulster Council, Connacht Council.

We've done the Coast of Bonnish Tea in Crowe Park and the Ardcola.

So tonight, the Leinster Council is our last stop, really.
