What’s the real story of Gaelic Sunday?

’Gaelic Sunday’ is described on the GAA’s website as “one of the most remarkable and significant days in the history of the GAA”, writes Paul Rouse.

“It will be forever remembered as … the day when the GAA peacefully stood against the British Empire — and won.”

That’s a nice, catchy line, but it reeks of hubris. So is it accurate?
