Francis Brosnahan yearns for the good old days

Memories will be jogged today by the appearance of Young Munster in the Bank of Ireland Munster Senior Cup final against rivals Cork Constitution at Thomond Park (2.30pm).

Expect hordes of Young Munster fans to cross the city from the Yellow Road, led by a goat, the traditional club mascot.

Sadly, there will be no sign of the late Limerick character Dodo Reddan, who contributed handsomely to the colour and pomp of previous Munster Cup final occasions when she made her way to the stadium accompanied by her beloved dogs bedecked in yellow and black, the smaller ones sitting up proudly in a battered pram.
