Dr Crokes ready to match the men of ‘92

The indefatigable John Evans — he of Knocknagoshel, Tipperary, Roscommon, and several points in between, though mainly Killorglin — tweeted this week a modest little reminder of the last Kerry club to win an All- Ireland senior title.

It’s probably worth recording it was Laune Rangers and that Evans was in charge, but he hardly thought he’d wait 21 years “to hand over the baton”, as he might say. Twenty-one years and counting.

They’ve scratched a lot of heads about that in Killarney.
