As I was making my way under the Kinnane Stand before the Clare-Galway All-Ireland semi-final replay last August, I met a plethora of Limerick guys on stewarding duties in Thurles for the day.

Sound fellas who’d been knocking around the Gaelic Grounds in an official capacity or giving a hand with various teams in the underage Academy.
