All-Ireland football final day: one of the special days in the Irish sporting calendar, and we have two new teams in Armagh and Galway bringing a splash of novelty and freshness to a Gaelic football championship that in recent years has been boring, stale and repetitive.

As I write this, All-Ireland final day is bringing back many happy memories for me. I was privileged to play in 10 All-Ireland finals. And they bring back a kaleidoscope of beautiful memories and craziness.
