Uncle Mo and Ian — a little bit of literary licence is required with Ian, who I’ll get to later — are two impostors that will have a bearing on the semi-final tomorrow, writes Donal O’Grady.

I’ve written about Uncle Mo before under the guise of Mr Momentum, a name I borrowed from Coach Reinebold of Sky’s NFL Sunday night programme.

Uncle Mo’s a fickle character who’s allied himself firmly with the Blue and Gold at this stage through facile victories over Dublin, Offaly and a more competitive Clare, while five weeks of inactivity is not ideal preparation for Galway.
