Replying To loyal82royal:  "Excuse me but when did Kildare ever dominate?"
Between 1926 and 1931 Kildare won six Leinster titles in a row including back to back All Ireland's in 1927/1928.

Well it was 93, and we did win Ulster in 98 and National League in 2008 which means a lot in some counties.

Kerry = Italy must have hit a nerve, you should embrace your new found defensive style, it will bring much success to the butter capital of Ireland."
Italy are doing very well and though often dismissed as old or past it, more often than not they are the team to beat.

2014 should have rammed it home to the likes of you that you similarly write Kerry off at your pearl.

My post was more to see if your snide remarks about my county would surface again.

And true to form they have.

What a 'butter' little man you are ;)

Italy always tend to opt for players who are 30 or older, I think most knowledgeable soccer people no longer chat about such things as if they are a weakness, as they know Italy will always be there or thereabouts.

As for Snide remarks about Kerry, I fail to see that, I thought it was pretty factual :)

Galway hurlers: Holland Perpetually have promising young talent, reach finals every so often, but always fall short at the final hurdle.

Kildare: Uruguay Once were the superpowers of their sport, but their trophy famine is no nearer ending.

Cork footballers: Argentina Have a long-standing rivalry with Brazil, but rarely achieve their full potential.
