Sideshow Bob is a Simpson's character, I'm guessing most people got that, maybe I'm wrong :(

ahhh!

have never watched it, but not a big TV fan unless it involves sports, Coronation Street or emmerdale where you have some of the finest barmaids known to man.

Aye the Jimmy's Winnin Matches one was good. Rory Gallagher - (Not THAT Rory Gallagher) is a great musician from Kilcar but currently living in Lanzarote. He used to be the front man of The Revs, don't know if any of you remember them? They had a couple of hits back in the early 00's. Wired To The Moon and they did a cover of Turning Japanese for the 2002 World Cup.

I'd say he made a nice few bucks before and after the 2012 win appearing at various function at home Even Murphy sang it in his speech after lifting Sam!

Louth had a few songs out for the Leinster final in 2010. The biggest one was an lu abu that used the Pogues Fiesta music in the background.

Tipp one a few years ago was good. Some rocker who makes Hurleys. They managed to rhyme ' o Mahoney' with 'flatten ye'

Jimmy's winning matches has to be the best. I think it was released before the semi with Cork and with Donegal winning Sam it fitted in really well
Plus the fact that J MC Guinness was very much in the GAA sports news at the time.
After the final whistle against Mayo , great scenes and with Jimmy's winning matches over the blower Donegal fans really celebrated
Margo's song in 1992, Walking Tall In Donegal was another great football song.
Some coincident though as we had a song out each year we reached the All Ireland Final , (1992 our first year and 2012 our second final) and we managed to win Sam on each occasion
Don't think we had one out last year but look out for next year's.

Flack ,

Yes that would be our very own Johhny B. He also makes hurleys and is related to the famous Rattler Byrne!! John O'Brien is his name from Cahir.

He has a You Tube account full of Tipp GAA music and was the man who wrote The Premier Rap (2010 AI Song ) The Premier Return (2011 AI Song ) and This could be our Year (2014 AI Song ).

Also has another host of songs there was on the up for match programme with his songs too.

That song was by a band called Galleon, who ironically enough hailed from Cork!

Typical of Kerry - wouldn't even win an All-Ireland if it meant doing Cork a favour!

All Ireland final songs are usually dire efforts.Back in the 80s a band called the Conquerors had "Galway are back" to the tune of 'Baby come Back" which wasn't too bad.

Came across this one last night. Great effort by a school down in Kerry. It's not the usual we're the best crap you get. It has a bit of a story to it. Enjoy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=L2pdP_DPeSE

Can the dubs answer this question what are the words of the tune 'come on ye boys in blue'. All I hear is 'Come on ye boys in blue come on ye boys in blue' then something else is sung then it kinda fades away then the crowd roars 'Come on ye boys in blue come on ye boys in blue' then something else and then fades away again. Never could figure out get is said
