Speech for Mid West Radio October 1st

(Oldest Posts First)

Dear Sir/Madam,

If Mayo happen to win on 1st October against Dublin would you consider the following for post match commentary? Based on Norweigan Bjørge Lillelien's excitable outburst after Norway beat England in soccer in 1981..

"Oscar Wilde, Edward Carson, Sir Bob Geldof, Bono, Dustin the Turkey, Charlie Redmond, Ronnie Drew, Rosanna Davison, Mary Kennedy, Rachel Wyse, Mary Lou McDonald, Joan Burton - we have beaten them all. We have beaten them all!

"Miriam O'Callaghan can you hear me? Miriam O'Callaghan, I have a message for you: We have stopped Dublin's two in a row!'

"Miriam O'Callaghan: Your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!"


Said with great emotion and passion of course :) I'm sure some can improve on the list of famous Dubs :)

We've beaten Dublin before! And Rachel Wyse is from outside the Pale, I believe.

Beat Laois, Louth and Meath in 3 all-irelands. Never Dublin.

Ms. Wyse Dublin here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Wyse I know it can be inaccurate.

Just a bit or light hearted craic.
