    It's like shinty insofar as it's played with a stick and a hard ball. Otherwise, it's much faster, contested at a higher level and played more in the air rather than along the ground. It's the fastest field sport in the world. I'm not sure if that's down to the speed the ball travels or the amount of movement by players. A good game of hurling is a fantastic spectacle of skill and speed.
    Well done Sligo. Hope the footballers were watching. Might shame them into doing better next year.

    Think I heard the homecoming about 11pm up at the Connaughton Road / The Mall area.
