DONAL Hickey, the erstwhile Irish Examiner staff writer in Killarney, who literally wrote the book on East Kerry football, is pondering the last time Spa had two players in contention to start the championship with Kerry.

Hickey, of proud Gneeveguilla stock, but long settled in Tiernaboul in Spa parish above Killarney, consulted with the elders of a club now cutting a dash in Division 1 in the Kingdom before confirming the need to date back to the late 1960's and early '70's for such an occasion – or as he puts it, “to find two Spa players regularly commanding places on the Kerry team at the same time.”
