John Allen: I suppose that one player who has impressed us a lot is Cathal King from Na Piarsaigh. He’s a musician and he’s trying to balance the two things. John Allen, manager of the Limerick Senior G&W: Well, he has a kindred spirit in yourself as you are Hurling team also a musician. Indeed, rumour has it that you played guitar in the Opera House in Cork. ball quickly and try to keep possession, it makes it difficult John Allen: I played a little music all right! Cathal was for your opponents to control the game. It’s obviously harder away on tour before Christmas but he came back in in hurling because of the smaller ball and the stick but that’s December and slotted in immediately. And, he had what you need to aim for because the speed of the game maintained a level of fitness that enabled him to do that, and the speed of players on their feet has increased so much.

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.

  • Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick by Alan O'driscoll and Brian Hodkinson
    Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick By Alan O'Driscoll and Brian Hodkinson The following was commenced by Alan O’Driscoll (AOD) while on a work placement in Limerick Museum in the autumn of 2012 and continued by Brian Hodkinson. It is a continuation of the Who was who in medieval Limerick, which can also be found on the Limerick Museum website. It straddles the period c 1540 to c 1700, so some figures may appear in both databases. It is compiled for the most part by using the indexes of the various sources using Limerick as the search term. However, it has been noted that these indexes are often not comprehensive, and so when sources are available online, then a scroll through the text highlighting Limerick has produced entries not in the index. Such scrolling has also found entries where place names are abviously Limerick ones but Limerick does not appear as a word, e.g. in Fiants and CPCRCI. So while I (BJH) like to think it is comprehensive, it may not be. Notes. • Where two similar names are believed to be the same person, the entries are combined. However, many repeated names appear in the same lists (particularly in the Civil Survey). Where this occurs and/or the two persons are listed as coming from a different location, they are separated, even if they are recorded at the same time. There are a great many repeated full names, such as William Bourke, and it has proved practically impossible to be sure of which of these are different people.

    ROINN COSANTA. BUREAU OF MILITARY HISTORY, 1913-21. STATEMENT BY WITNESS. DOCUMENT NO. W.S. 1412. Witness Michael Hennessy, Dundrum, Co. Tipperary. Identity. Member of East Limerick Brigade Flying Column. Subject. Activities of Kilfinane Company, Irish Volunteers, l914-1921, and East Limerick Flying Column, 1920-1921. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.2740. Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY MR. MICHAEL HENNESSY, Dundrum,Co. Tipperary. I joined the Irish Volunteers when a company of that organisation was formed in my native place of Kilfinane, Co. Limerick, towards the end of the year of l914. I was then about twenty-one years of age. There were about thirty young men in the company, and Sean McCarthy, then resident in Kilfinane, was the company 0/C. Justin McCarthy, Sean's cousin, and Dan McCarthy were the other two officers of the company. We paraded about once or twice a week for training and drill. Foot drill was practised in a field near the town, and occasionally we went on route marches to places like Ballylanders and Glenbrohane. The training was done with wooden guns and, as far as I am aware, the company at that time possessed no effective arms. I should also mention that our company the Kilfinane company as it was then known was attached to the Galtee battalion of which, if my memory serves me right, Willie Manahan, then the creamery manager in Ardpatrick, was 0/C. My recollection of Easter Week 1916 is that the company was mobilised to parade on either Easter Sunday or Easter Monday morning, and each man was instructed to bring sufficient rations to maintain him for a couple of days.

In that way we can keep the resolution of the photos high and the size of both sections will be less than one megabyte. Part one is the magazine section and part two is the weekend roundup. The three Cup Finals in Croke Park provided some fine hurling but the crowd was just under 4,000 so it is probably back to the drawing board for those finals. Each needs to be played as a curtain raiser to a game from the Liam McCarthy Championship to create the right atmosphere. The Munster Final had patches of fine hurling and some fine individual displays but lacked the intensity of former classics. Both teams Tipperary and Waterford are continu - ing to make progress. Tipperary still look the best challenger to the champions but Wa - terford battled with heart and could yet make a final four berth. Best wishes ‘til next week from Hurling World. FEATURE Mickey ‘The Rattler’Byrne Issue 11 July 13th 2009 p 3 Rattle ‘em Mickey! Mickey ‘The Rattler’ Byrne from Thurles Sarsfields, held down the right fullback position for Tipperary for 12 championship seasons between 1949 and 1960 and was a substitute on the All-Ireland winning team of 1945.

The girls were the only Tipp representatives on the team which is a great achievement for the club. Well done also to Eamonn Spillane who was one of the two Munster team coaches on their great win. VOL. 2 ISSUE 3 APRIL 2014 SEPTEMBER 2013 FINAL CIVIC RECEPTION AT NENAGH TOWN COUNCIL On Friday April 25th, our club was honoured with a civic reception from Nenagh Town Council. This is the highest award the town can award and it was in recognition of the fantastic success our club enjoyed in 2013 in a number of different codes. Firstly the camogie section was honoured because they won the county Junior League and championship while the U18's also 1 captured county championship honours. Both our Scór and handball sections had numerous successes last year and they were recognised, as were our minor hurlers who won the county title. 2 3 Special mention must go to Aislinn O’Brien who was individually recognised because not only was she on the camogie teams who were so successful but she was also on the Nenagh Town AFC teams that won Munster honours at both U16 and Senior level.
