OLD GAA MATCHES IN CLUBHOUSE
The game chosen for this weeks screening in the clubhouse is the classic Munster final replay between Tipp and Cork from 1991. Our own club-man and current Tipp manager Michael Ryan had made his championship debut in the drawn game to start his 9 year career in the blue and gold. Following this will be a series of highlights of All Ireland hurling finals from the 60's. A golden age for Tipperary hurling. The screening will start at 8:30pm in the clubhouse in Drombane tonight (Friday) and all are welcome
