Yeah
40:13
... deals with a lot of stuff that's, that's, uh, positive.
40:16
I think it's the lack of games maybe, um, that caught him out with the, with the sending off.
40:21
Again, he tries to win the ball and misses the ball.
40:22
It gets there, and the striker, no complaints from us.
40:25
Um, yeah, uh, like but other than that, like at that stage, we were 3-1 up, and he played 60 minutes, and other than a looping ball over the top, he was very...
40:34
He was composed.
44:52
... because he was excellent, I thought.
104:02
So, you know, that's a really, really great season.
104:04
Yeah, one game in the Mullins Cup and one game in, in Leinster.
104:06
Um, lost the game in Leinster on penalties.
104:09
So yeah, two games all season are bad, is not a bad shift.
104:12
Um, so we, we'd have to be pretty happy with, with our performances, um, all season.
104:16
And in fairness, like I keep saying, the squad was massive.
104:18
Like you see Morty Bambrick there, he's in a boot.

2:06
Whenever we had anyone available, we trained.
2:08
And that kind of showed towards the end because we were missing, I think the day we played Cretty, we were missing seven or eight starters.
2:15
Like, we lads that had played very little football.
2:17
Yeah, there was a couple of games you were saying you were down bodies and the reason they were able to play is that they were training you tend to find that with the smaller numbers there were lads that weren't playing GAA or weren't doing something else so the lads that needed fecking training more so than anything else and then they kind of were able to fill in then for us when we needed them especially against Critty because it was a tough night at the office there and the day in Newark as well we were missing a few and we had a squad of I'd say we had a squad of 18, 19 Newark were going alright then were they the word were going well that time yeah the word yeah great year for you though great year youth division 2 double youth division 2 cup no youth division 2 cup yeah premier cup premier cup second in the

With Hanover, after having a couple of bad results, we kind of turned up with a blasé attitude.
4:56
We were one down, thank God, for the water breaks.
