The time for words is over: in a few hours it will instead be time for the throw-in down at Pearse Park.  There’s little more to say at this point except to wish the lads well in today’s All-Ireland minor football final replay, where I know that, like they’ve done all year, they’ll do us proud once again.  They’ll know more than any of us that they did everything bar win at Croke Park the last day and we know that they have the ability, the hunger and the drive to finish the job down in Longford today.  The best of luck, lads – we’ll be there in force to roar you home.
