Time for a change of ideas from the ‘Shawshankers’

BACK in the not-too-distant past, it was virtually impossible to find a footballer or hurler whose favourite film wasn’t The Shawshank Redemption.

Nearly every Q&A with a player read the same: Favourite film? Shawshank Redemption. Favourite meal? Steak and chips. Toughest opponent? The next one.

I remain convinced that players who never watched Andy “crawl to freedom through 500 yards of s***-smelling foulness” still put it down as their favourite show.
