Irish Sports
There is currently 1 person viewing this thread.
We had the thread from richters about GAA players playing other sports after the ban on foreign sports was abolished in 1971.
Dave Barrry springs to mind.........he kept it lit at both ends..........I remember his great battles with Colm Coyle..........It was probably easier then as the soccer season was not during the summer months.
Any others?
