Sam Maguire and an FA cup (finally given a medal) because the blues celebrated to much and missed out on a treble

….think he might have also have been sent off in our FA Cup final. If I remember rightly, the referee was called Willis because he reffed a game I played in up in the North East not long later.

First player ever to be sent off in an FA Cup final mate - crazy it took as long as the 80s really.

As good as he was at Soccer he was a better Gaelic Footballer.

Played with some of his nephews coming up, his family owned/own a corner shop shop in Drimnagh and are a real part of that community, lovely people.

….the Bobby Collins ‘tackle’ in the first few minutes of the ‘65 final would be prosecuted for assault these days

Yup. Even so, we were looking like winning until the sending off, which Reid vehemently protested should not happen. Everton seemed to just fold from then on, as United started playing like men possessed.

I still believe we would have won only for that sending off.

Good to see the modern footballers finally getting an important result this evening. Maybe there is hope after all despite a poor League campaign.

Kevin was a giant in that 70s team.

Just in the door from Portlaoise mate, we might not have the players any more but a performance to be proud of tonight. Wasn’t expecting it to be honest.

Rarely talked about but Heffo culled the half back line in 75 after the Kerry ambush, Moran came in and the rest is history, arguably revolutionised how half backs attack.

I was thinking of going over (we live in Kilkenny), but domestic matters kept me at home.

I'll certainly try to get to the final.
