Savour the skelping in the Páirc

Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here!

This is the War Room! [Peter Sellers, Dr Strangelove, 1964]

PERHAPS it’s because we’re having our annual FilmFestival in West Kerry these days but I was reminded of Peter Sellers when reading Tomás Ó Sé’s comments ahead of tomorrow’s match in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on these pages during the week. Tomás is, by some distance, the elder statesman of the currentKerry team and pouring cold water on any suggestions of a grudge match between Cork and Kerry was of course the sensible thing to do inmid-March.
