Tipp set to unleash Bubble trouble

To know where Bubbles came from, best talk to Festy.

Pat Kerwick earned his nickname from his father who, on hearing a character by the name of Festy Kerwick on Tipp FM, christened him thus. The origin of his younger Killenaule club-mate John O’Dwyer’s moniker also came from a father.

“He was bubbly as a young fella,” laughs Kerwick before adding, “in shape. He was a bit chubby.”
