1982 Beaten but defiant

Posted by Mairead Tuohy Duffy
Wednesday 4 August 1982

Mairead Tuohy Duffy shares her favourite moment

 

O Offaly,dear Offaly,
I remember '82 with pride,
You broke the hearts of my Kerry,
Matt Connor on his stride
The handsome Jack O'Shea
Pat Spillane by his side,
Paudie from the Gaeltacht
We were beaten but still defiant.
An Ríocht Abú go deo.
