ALL-IRELAND FINAL - Dublin united in victory

The thousands who turned up on O’Connell St and outside the GPO to welcome them were treated to a feisty performance of The Proclaimers’ ‘500 Miles’ by an energetic Dean Rock who remained blissfully unaware that his vocals were broadcasting live on 98FM.
Not to be outdone, St Jude’s man Kevin McManamon belted out Van Morrison’s ‘Brown Eyed Girl’. Earlier, in the Boar’s Head, DJ- in-chief Michael Darragh Macauley had been pumping out the classics — ‘Lovely Day’ by Bill Withers and Van Morrison’s ‘Days Like This’.
