Two‑time All‑Ireland–winning captain and former Dublin and Clare manager, Anthony Daly, is a much-respected pundit and columnist as well as ringmaster in chief on the hugely-popular Dalo’s Hurling Show.

After we won the 1995 All-Ireland, the TSB decided that I was a wasted asset serving behind the counter (oh lord) so they gave me a job on the road selling pensions and fitted me with a company car. My first car.

I was doing some business in south Galway early one afternoon when I got a call from Pat Murray, the then Shannon and Munster full-back, who also worked for the TSB.
