European Hurling and Camogie Championships – Zürich ISSUE 10 July 6Th 2009 ISSUE 10 July 6th 2009 The Munster Final... A Player’s View Lads... Just call it straight! The Dreaded Missed the hat trick by inches...Martin Comerford Replay Photo; John McIlwaine p 2 EDITOR’S COMMENT ISSUE 10 July 6th 2009 Hello Hurling Fans, The high point of this weekend was the meeting of Dublin and Kilkenny in the Leinster Final. It was obvious after 15 minutes that Dublin had benefited psychologically from their semi-final breakthrough against Wexford. Their 3 points without reply after half time left them in a position to strike for home but careless marking and some mindless frees conceded in the half back line was their downfall on this occasion. Nevertheless Daly’s men are going from strength to strength and will be a difficult obstacle for whoever is drawn against them in the semi-final. The action switches to Semple Stadium next weekend for the mouth-watering clash between Tipperary and Waterford in the Munster Final. On Saturday the finals of the secondary competitions The Christy Ring Nicky Rackard and Lory Meagher Cups take place in Croke Park.

He said ‘Skippy’ the best of luck today; you know you are wearing a very prestigious Tipperary jersey. Just think now he says of all the lads that have worn it.

    Weekend Sport Irish Examiner Saturday, 19.05.2018 6 THE BIG INTERVIEW THE JOHN FOGARTY INTERVIEW Twenty years ago, there were the three shadowy priests who, it was claimed, had knowledge of Colin Lynch’s suspension before the Munster Council had even met to decide his faith. In Liam Doyle, Seánie McMahon, and Anthony Daly, meanwhile, Clare had the three wise kings, forming one of hurling’s greatest half-back lines. Two decades on from the Banner’s last Munster SHC success and the All-Ireland title that got away, the trio recall that tumultuous summer of ’98, from Lynch’s ban to Jimmy Cooney’s bad time-keeping The one that got away from Banner brothers John Fogarty: Twenty years on, how ship.

  • Michael (Mike Joe) Cronin
    MICHAEL (MIKE JOE) CRONIN SUNRISE: 12TH SEPTEMBER 1942 SUNSET: 26TH MAY 2020 Memories are a treasure, time can’t take them away and we have so many wonderful memories of Mike Joe that we will cherish forever – sometimes with laughter, sometimes with tears, but always with love. After leaving school in Lenamore he worked in various jobs – with farmers, with the Board of Public Works, in Listowel Mart, with a builder, as an honorary milk man with Tom Manaher, at Newtownsandes Co-op and finally in Tarbert Power Station where he made many wonderful friends for life. Although his two sisters Noreen and Mary moved to England, all three kept in regular contact with each other. This was very important to Mike Joe and he loved their visits home, always looking forward to meeting them for a good catch up. Stories were recalled of days gone by and new memories were made. Even though they were separated by land and sea they always held a special bond. As Noreen said to me only recently she “always knew she could rely and depend on Mike”. In later years this bond was nourished and strengthened through friendship with his brother in law Ron, nephew Tim, grandnephew Aidan and grandniece Niamh. Mom and Dad had a very special bond. Their love and friendship towards each other was plain for all to see. Their friendship towards each other was plain for all to see. They both enjoyed doing their own thing and also loved doing things together. Dad was so proud of Mom in many ways.

  • Annual Report 2013-2014
    FACULTY OF RADIOLOGISTS Dámh na Raideolaithe Annual Faculty Newsletter 2013/2014 Deans Introduction Retiring Dean’s don’t die: they just lose their Faculties. So I have always maintained. As I write this, it seems an appropriate time to take stock. As everyone before me has quite rightly said, the achievements of any of us are largely the results of the significant efforts of predecessors, and certainly this is the case for me. There is, I think, a continuum of progress. Often, in the eye of a particular storm, this isn’t apparent but the helicopter view does reveal method and evolution. I would hope, within this foreword, to explain to Fellows of the Faculty, what I think has been achieved over the last number of years, and what has been set in train for my worthy successor, Prof. Dermot Malone. Since I became a board member, my continuum of Deans looks like this: Lynn Johnston (2000-2002), David McInerney (2002-2004), Eamann Breatnach (2004-2006), Peter McCarthy (2006-2008), Risteard O’Laoide (2008-2010) and Adrian Brady (2010-2012). Improvement and iterative change is constant. If one takes a look for example at some recent years’ achievements: 2010 Faculty funding is streamed through the Medical Education and Training Unit of the HSE. The genesis of the Quality Assurance programme begins, as does the digitization of the FFR examination. All three are massive changes in how we function. 2011 In May 2011, the Professional Competence Scheme begins, and Ireland increases its educational significance in ESR, with Dr Breatnach becoming the Scientific Director of the European Board of Radiology for the European Diploma in Radiology, and Dr Brady its first Irish examiner.
