Wow. Where did that quarter of a century go? Actually, make that 27 years. It’s incredible the way the years just fly by. Back in the late 1990s, you were wondering what the year 2000 would be like. Mother of God, we’re nearly 25 years into that new Millennium now.

When you scan back over those intervening years from when we won our first All-Ireland with Clare in 1995, so much has changed, so much has happened.
