Limerick’s experience proves the difference

I WAS down around the square in Thurles yesterday, and five or six Dublin lads passed me talking loudly.

“If we win today,” one of them said, but got no further, as he was interrupted by a Limerick-woman. “Have no fear lads,” she said, with absolute confidence, “Ye won’t win!”

I wonder how much of that confidence was left after 10 minutes of the first game yesterday?
