Ten things Mayo GAA fans can finally say goodbye to... - opinion - Western People (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Given that the so-called ‘curse’ only entered circulation in the early 2000s, some 50 years after it apparently happened, it always deserved scorn. Sadly, what happened was too many started to believe it and the reprehensible question kept appearing – ‘how many of them are left now?’ To reduce a team of champions to lives people wanted to wish away was disgusting. Worse still, plenty of those giving it credence were from this county. It was an absolute honour to interview Paddy Prendergast at th

Read excerpt
It is now over three weeks since the final whistle and the joy of winning the All-Ireland has not abated one bit. We thought the sheer ecstasy of winning might just last for a few hours, a day or two at the most. But it sustained for well over a week. There were so many indescribable highs.
