“We gave a hug performance from start to finish out there,” Galvin told TV3′s Kieran Fitzgerald afterwards. “What do you say about this Kerry team? Hard to know.. they’re great men you know and we were put to the pin of our collar.
“A lot of the talk during the week, writing this team off served only to fuel great men in that dressingroom.”
Was just thinking the same thing! What’s the hurtful stuff that’s been written? It’s sport like… If they barely put westmeath away, Of course they’ll be criticised! Great performance today all the same.
Mr Galvin is the type of man who threatens most Irish men because he is in touch with his sexuality and spirituality. Judging by he comments here I’d say there are a large number of Irish males who are homophobic AND have turned their back on he church. The reality is that men like Galvin are probably shagging your wives while you’re at he pub drinking.
Jesus man! What a crap actor. He definitely should attend drama classes, along with elocution lessons. That’s the worst effort of forced crying I think I’ve ever seen.
Oh shut up, is there anything as bad as listening to a poor, jealous, obnoxious neighbour. As you`d say yourself “gwan” back to your “republic” or whatever you call that cess pit over the border :-)
Paul galvin, so hot right now. really rockin the tyrone jersey in that pic. match that with some skinny jeans and a man satchel for the perfect summer look
Am involved with GAA all my life and I cant understand the Galvin haters, How do you all know him so well?
I say fair play to him, Love him or hate him, he brings that thing to GAA that we all look for.
Yeah well said the lad is a out and out footballer. Who cares what else he does. He always gives it all for the Kerry jersey. The begrudgery here is breath taking!
Have to say if I wasn’t from Waterford then I’d want to be from Kerry. One of the few counties remaining with pride in itself and not one of the many counties full of whinging begrudging small minded knackers.
Every year same thing, unless Kerry hammer everyone, they are considered finished, then what a surprise, they get it together late July, early August… Doesn’t anyone see the pattern – Kerry aim to be at their best in September, not May, not June.
Call him what you like but he has been central to every big Kerry win for a very long time. When he plays well they are unbeatable. A great player who does not get the respect he deserves but the All-Ireland medals probably make up for that. This is coming from a Mayo Man.
Paul Galvin gets the respect he deserves. Hes a talented footballer but he is one of the filthiest players ever to play football. There are numerous incidents every year. That’s why people can’t stand him!
Love or hate him he is the ultimate footballer from a brilliant county that has produced some of the greatest gaa players of all time the stats don’t lie and I’m a true blue dub , and I don’t care what anyone says Kerry should have had a draw last September .
Paul Galvin is a great but downright the dirtiest player inGAA football. That interview was a laugh, he was like the Bull McCabe, ” Tis my field and NO ONE only KERRY owns Sam, Tis mine, do you hear me Yank, Tis mine ?”……. What an actor. The Kerry and Tyrone game was a back door match, 2 division 2 teams in Champioship 2012.
Two division 2 teams? Are you talking about the soccer league or something as last time I checked Kerry weren’t in any second division. Might want to tell the bookmakers too who have them as joint favourites for the All Ireland.
Paul galvin has given his all to Kerry football and a fantastic player with passion for Kerry football.. He is a footballer speaking after the game when the passion is high.. It’s people like Paul that adds extra to the game.. Deserves man of the match today
Whatever about football, I feel for Mickey Harte right now, because without the heat of the championship he will truly feel the loss of his daughter and the associated injustice in finding the perpetrator.
Oh for the love of God, who do they think they are? The usual ole “poor us, we’re great and no one respects us” drivel from the animals back in the kingdom! Ye are finished Kerry, face facts! And I for one would have more respect for a team if their “star” player didn’t have to get involved in every little argument and your other players didn’t dive every time a chance for a soft free or booking showed its head. Colm Cooper rolling around the floor today like he was after getting shot and there nothing wrong with him. And then we have to listen to this rubbish from a fella who can’t even teach anymore cause of the beatings he gave students? Spare me please! The only people hurting Paul are the students you hopped the chalkduster off!
And what in the name of God would I be bitter over with a Kerry man? The accent? The tourism revenue? Or perhaps (most likely) just I’m from a neighbouring county and sick of the sound of the bulls**t coming from Kerry ever since I was born. From Healy Rae to Galvin, Dara O Se to Daithi O Se, the lot of ye are spoofers that talk such mountains of manure, it’s just hard to stomach some times. And take no notice of the animal references. That’s what we call ye in PROC with years, not a personal dig or anything.
When it comes to the football team how are they spoofers? A team in transition no doubt as they were last year still made a final. Keep your bitterness and begrudgery and grow up.
Listen Emmet when you go to as many games between Cork and Kerry as a Cork fan as I do, come back to me and tell me I am the bitter one! I hold no bitterness or begrudgery towards Kerry, why would I? I just feel ashamed for them, that’s it, change the bitterness record!
Diarmuid, this why we usually stuff ye on the big days, ye’re all a little bit sensitive and easy to wind up. Always took the ‘animals’ tag as a compliment anyway. thinking ye’re great (PROC…. pffff) isn’t enough, especially in the wide open spaces of Croke Park. Ye keep talking, we’ll keep walking…
That’s more like it lads. Was waiting for ye anxiously! As I say quite regularly to Kilkenny fans or any other one trick pony county, we like to focus on overall GAA and sporting achievement. Granted we don’t have anywhere near the amount of football all irelands as Kerry do, but we are THE most successful GAA county, that is a simple fact! Donnacha, Kerry have beaten us on the big occasion in the noughties which has been hard to witness as a Cork fan, that I admit, but as God is my witness we will hockey ye this year. I am actually delighted ye beat them. I am hoping we meet ye, I will relish the opportunity for Cork to beat ye out the gates, as our players will!
Losing three finals albeit to an excellent Tyrone and the Dubs that is what hurts. Galvin doesn’t compare himself to his contemporaries but to the Kerry team of the 70/80′s. To him and his teammates winning 7 or 8 all-Ireland is what they are looking at however ridiculous that may seem to you. Time is passing and he probably only has this season and two more in him. He will look back at this in the distant future and cringe a little but the weight of expectation and the exorcising of Tyrone demons is what seems to be the cause.
From reading through some of the comments and all the hate on galvin and kerry i have come to this conclusion.
I Smell Fear. Sniff, Sniff. Yep its definately there along with a load of squeeky bums. Kerry starting to make people very nervous. Hate all you want but you cant hide your fear.
Those posting their vitriol might take a second to remember that this guy is swearing blood for his county and doesn’t get paid a penny. The passion he showed in this interview is an antidote to a lot of the prima-donnas getting paid ludicrous amounts for plying their trade in the Premiership. Don’t understand where the hatred comes from? Jealousy maybe? So what if he is passionate about fashion. I don’t think many of you would repeat what you are posting about him in person face to face :) He’s no angel but he is one talented Gaelic Footballer
cant beat him for talking points folks, and despite showboating on the pitch he always plays the right pass on it. As fir being the dirtiest footballer, he is up there for sure but he isnt alone. Kerry are just a shadow of their former selves, but once more we are seeing the blend of young talent getting blooded with the most experienced team of the last 10 years. They have enough in the tank to deal with anyone, even Cork, but they need to toughen up mentally. That weakness has cost them 4 al irelands in recent years. That is their only failing. I wouldnt worry about the dubs too much.
One hit wonders. Still suffering the hang over from coppers last Sept. having said that as a rebel I would rather see Dublin win the the so called Kingdom! Up the Rebels!!!
Couldn’t agree more with choon’s comment above. We are a nation of sheep. I don’t wear skinny jeans myself but if he wants to wear them ,and is not afraid of people sneering behind his back – Fairplay.
While delighted Kerry won I must say he hammed it up there. I wouldn’t knock him for pontificating about skinny jeans and Jay Z though, there are more than enough in the GAA who could hold forth on the merits of Zetor
Whatever about the interview etc. the personal comments relating to Galvin are a disgrace. The fact what a man chooses to wear, saying he beat students (when in actual fact he threw a duster at one) shouldn’t even come into this discussion. God knows what hurlers/footballers from counties get up to that doesn’t make the press.nnAsk any student in the school and most will have good things to say. He coached the school team superbly.nnPersonal attacks should not be tolerated.Forums do not allow it. nnFor those questioning his sexuality why not read the papers. His love interests have been commented on. She’s even from Mayo!
This site is full of idiots from cork spouting shit who have nothing better to do than be negative get a life the lot of ye and stop showing cork people up
Terrible game today, Kerry not the purists some pundits make them out to be. They set out from the first minute to spoil the game and pull Tyrone into a game of petty fouling and mouthing off. Donaghy a disgrace. Cooper rolling around like he’s been shot.
Expand on hiw he is a ‘joker’. As you don’t know much about gaa, here’s one for you. Galvin is an amateur player who puts his life on hold to commit to his team he trains with most nights of the week. You probably do know that. He would need to have a lot of time to ‘care about his image more than anything else’!
See that passion in the interview lads? That is exactly why we have 36 All Irelands and also why the rest of ye will never come close to it.
As for the cynical football comments, we played Tyrone at their own game yesterday and our superior football ability shone through. Pity we didnt learn that lesson earlier and we wouldnt have to listen to this crap about not been able to beat Northern teams. That is well and truly put to bed now so they will have to go back to the drawing board to devise some new maslerplan to beat the Kingdom.
We arent deluded enough to think that we will win this All Ireland but its looking a lot healthier than this time yesterday.
You are the epitome of why Kerry is the one county in Ireland whose fans I can’t even converse with. You beat a re building inexperienced piss poor team in your own backyard in the back door qualifiers and suddenly you’re the best thing since the slice pan. You also somehow feel the need to remind us all of your history! Deal in the present, if it’s not too embarrassing!
Diarmuid, I’d advise you to shut up and stop talking out your arse. You obviously know nothing about football and it’ll be harder for you to take your medicine in September when Kerry win. Stop getting so worked up and go off to watch some golf or something.
Pat Spillane had his shot at Kerry last weekend knowing full well the response that he would get..cute Kerry hooors. Tyrone were gone before today’s game but shouldn’t have had a man sent off. Kerry show boated, they’ve played no one of real quality yet and won’t until semi or final stage. Galvin is a very good footballer but terrible role model. It’s anybody’s all Ireland!
Shouldn’t have a man sent off??? R u Blind? That kind of attack cannot be tolerated in any game and he got what he deserved. Keeping him in the game would have sent the wrong message.
Up the Rebels!!! Paul Galvin needs to come out of the closet!! As for the Gouch he needs rehab. Have seen him sink enough to float the Titantic in a now defunct Co Cork nite club long before he donned the Kerry Jersey
Just because he wears skinny jeans and nice clothes does not mean he is gay, come to London you will see alot of straight guys that dress just like him.
I cant believe how many Kerry fans are on here gloating about a great performance in a game that had 15 yellow cards and on red and some of the most cynical fouling ( by both teams) I’ve ever seen.
I wouldn’t be ordering the open top bus yet if I was jack o Connor. It’s only july but I’ve seen better teams. Can’t see Donegal or cork losing to that Kerry team
This thread is the perfect example of that popular culture phrase ‘haters gona hate and players gona play.’.
You could probably even say ‘haters/idiotic teenagers and fat middle aged men who have never achieved anything in sport- gona hate’
Some of the comments such as ‘go buy skinny jeans’ are just genius – its like a Mensa members debate on here
I read the comments before I watched the clip and thought they were kind of harsh, even me being from Mayo. No doubt about it, he’s a great footballer and has been a thorn in the side of Kerry’s opposition for the last 10 years or so. But having watched the clip……….. what a muppet!!! Really lets himself down with that kind of s***e. Media commentary shouldn’t bother teams unless it’s coming close to the truth – maybe some doubt creeping in??? Get on with it you fool!
Cork have nothing to fear from Kerry this year, we’ve already shown that. Kerry beat a bad team by 10 points, no big deal. I’d reckon we’ll be seeing Donegal in September, Sam is coming home to Cork again, rebels abú.
What hurt have they been carrying with the last 8 – 10 years? From what? Why are they hurting? They have been the most successful county of the noughties whilst getting hailed constantly by the media? I find it hard to understand where this “hurt” is coming from? My guess is it’s more guff from a dirty player!
You seem a bit obsessed and having read through your two most recent post- I see that you seem to be struggling to make a coherent point.
Your silly, small minded bias is very evident which says more about you than anything.
How can you possibly equate Galvin making a point about media hurt (Joe Brolly’s constant jibes if you must know) and him being a dirty player?
Ironic how you tell me I am a silly little man for making personal jibes yet your first reaction is to mock me? Confused much? In any event I won’t stoop to your level as I don’t know you, but, are you honestly telling me that a team of 30 grown men would be close to tears for the last ten years whilst collecting numerous all ireland medals because of one mans comments? Seriously, Paul Galvin and the Kerry team are hurting so much that he is close to tears ten years on because of one idiots comments? Pull the other one will ya! And I don’t even think I am going to get into him being a dirty player argument, cause if you try to say otherwise (given his history) you haven’t a single clue about GAA and the rules Bryan!
Diarmuid, did Paul Galvin kick the life out of you at some stage? Either that or steal your girlfriend? It’s ok, we understand that you need to air your obsessions with the man. It’s good to talk it out.
Are you unable to read?
I have not called you little- I have said small minded- these comments are made without the necessity of having to know you.
All I have to do is read back your personal attacks on Kerry people calling them animals, etc- thats nothing other than childish and pathetic.
I have never said that they were close to tears, only that they were going a response to comments- its one of the oldest motivational tools used in sport for godsake! Some idiot makes comments and the coach comes in and posts that article on the dressing room wall looking for a reaction.
I know enough about GAA rules thank you for asking by the way, but I was not questioning Galvins history (werent you the one who said to stop referring to history, anyway) I was merely stating the fact that you couldnt equate his point with him being a dirty player.
You either dont understand what I am typing or you’re choosing not to- either way as I have already said, it says a lot about your mindset
Bryan do you have to be insulting to make a point? I am prefectly able to read, now please make your point without insulting! I would also ask you to log on to http://www.proc.ie to see that we all call them animals in Cork, even Kerry family I have don’t get bothered by it cause it’s only play acting so get a grip will ya! Either that or learn a bit more about the rivalry between Cork and Kerry before commenting on things you have no idea about.
So Bryan, please explain to me in depth where the hurt that has a grown man in tears on live TV has come from? Please explain who has been hurting them for the last 10 years! If all you can come up with is Joe Brolly, Cork and Dublin teams will need counseling given the stick he has dished out to them over the past few years!
So you think because other people from Cork call Kerry people animals that it is fine? Nice sheep mentality you have there.
Insulting? because I have called you small minded? I have referenced your posts in this so it has not be indisciminate.
Having gone to college in Cork and also played football there, I am well aware of the rivalry between Cork and Kerry. I always found footballers from Cork to be quite respectful of Kerry , its usually those with no involvement at all that produce most of the bitterness.
Read back over your last few comments now, you have suggested I was illiterate, small minded etc, just for having a different opinion to you, and then on the other hand you’ve criticised me for being childish for jostling Kerry and Galvin? You can’t see the hypocrisy there no?
I have no idea what had Paul Galvin emotional after the match, either do you or the majority of people fo that matter. I would imagine it was something to do with the removal of a proverbial monkey that has been on Kerrys back for a while now, ie the inability to beat Tyrone.
You have completely moved off point here though- first you were making attacks on Kerry football and people in general and now realising the folly of this you have resorted to questioning why Galvin was emotional.
I would say that you should have quit while you were ahead but I’d imagine going on your attempts to make a point here that you rarely , if ever, are
Hypocrisy in what context? You’re getting a bit tetchy now because someone has called you up on your personal attacks on Galvin and Kerry in general.
I questioned your ability to read because you attempted to quote me but did so incorrectly.
I called you small minded because well you are small minded- its very evident from your posts, read back over them for godsake
How have I gone off point? Have a good look through all my posts now and tell me how exactly I have gone off point? I have asked numerous times how they are hurting so much given their success? You said above that it all came as a result of Joe Brolly but now have backtracked to monkeys on backs now? So when Galvin said they have been disrespected (in some mafioso kind of way) is this as a result of Tyrone having beaten them 3 times on the noughties? Anyone who beats them is disrespecting them is it? Just trying to understand your ever changing and off the wall logic, excuse me!
I think you’ll find that independent analysis of this dialogue would find you being the tetchy one, given you are now explaining personal attacks on me when I do not have to do the reverse as I have not and would not stoop that low!
My logic hasnt changed at all- its the exact same point. Brolly has discussed this monkey on their back at length therefore they are clearly linked. The disrespect that he refers to was nothing to do with Tyrone beating them and all to do with their credentials being questioned due to not having beaten Tyrone (you really should be able understand this).
Also- my ever changing logic? You have used an example of where you thought it changed once! Thats not ever changing
So your response to me saying that you are tetchy is in effect- ‘no you are’? Nice!
You cant really take the moral high ground in the same thread that you have made constant jibes about Galvin/Kerry football and Kerry people- to even attempt that is ridiculous
Its like trying to discuss something with a petulant child!
Trying to take the moral high ground by telling me ‘to have the last words’ is negated by you even making that statement.
Why must you keep attemptin to reach for it though?
This interview for me sums it up!!!!!
passion, commitment, Love for Kerry & GAA, Hard work, Dedication, PRIDE!
If anyone else had put in as much work as Paul Galvin and the rest of the Kerry team, u probably would be close to tears too ????
Anyone with a small brain can see and remember how Kerry GAA has been praised and slated in the media!
Does anyone understand what’s its like to be a volunteer wearing ur county jersey n have ur every single move reported in the media ( at the end of the day all our GAA players are human and deserve a private life)
Think back, Paul Galvin has been a target on the pitch for years, as have many other players, can u honestly say that u would not react if u ur pushed over the edge ?????
As a Kerry person living and working in London, yes we take pride in our GAA history, let it be also known that when Kerry loose or don’t cross the winning finish line we are well known for throwing the best parties BUT does that give other Irish people in London that drink along side us the rite to insult us , bring our personal lives into it, and think its ok?, answer is NO it dosent
At the end of the day it’s not our fault that a. We were bought up in Kerry and were proud of it b. Kerry’s GAA history is outstanding
To those Kerry GAA Haters , grow up n shut up or put on your football boots get training, the results on field are what matters
Why does it matter if Paul Galvin wears skinny jeans ????Or if the gooch is Gay ( I’m not saying he is, just read it in an earlier post)
I understand that when it comes to Kerry GAA its nearly always 31 against 1 but why be childish with stupid childish personal comments and insults ????
Oh for God sake I give up with you! I never said I was a sheep, there is always mocking goes back and forth, i would hate to live in the sterile world you live in. Please now answer the question I have asked you to answer in depth, if you can that is!
Answer what question? In depth? You have never asked me to answer any question in depth, you are using that phrase in the wrong context completely!
If you were referring to the question about why Galvin was emotional then I already have.
In depth? You give an in- depth answer to a question, you cant ask a question ‘in-depth’
Hilarious how you call someone an arrogant boy without even a slight hint of the irony of such a statement.
As I said you seem unable to make a coherent point and all you have done is showcase this and you’re dislike for Kerry.
I won’t correct your grammar there as I feel you are an intelligent individual, with some misgivings granted, and wouldn’t make such a mistake without trying to entice me to enact such a self righteous correction like you did! It’s not in my nature to be so petulant as to go around threads correcting peoples grammar when my argument is found out!
You found out my argument? Go on enlighten me.
Grammar correction? Well you cant really be sanctimonious about correcting grammar mistakes while mentioning them as that dilutes your intention.
My Galvin comments? Surprisingly considering the title of the article Galvin was rarely mentioned.
What Galvin comment did you find foolish? The one where I said that his disciplinary record was not up for debate or the comment on him being emotional after the match.
Both seemed fairly innocuous to me
One question to all Galvin hating, GAA supporters on here…….
If Galvin was Seanie Johnson and you were from Kildare, would you tell him to f… off back to Cavan?
Two impossible if’s there to make any sort of comparison! I think I see where you are coming from though. Any county would be happy to have had him.. though he’s getting on in years and he’s hot headed. Couldn’t care less about his profile off the pitch and I don’t think anyone else would if he was with their county.
no doubting there’s great men in that Kerry dressing room. got to respect their passion last-night. Galvin back to his best on and off the field. ferocious work-rate and outstanding distribution. prima donna and attention seeking afterwards. personally i think these 3 extra qualifier games will hurt Kerry if they make it to the latter stages. I’d definitely still rate them behind cork, Dublin, donegal and probably kildare and mayo to win Sam. beating a Tyrone team that’s #1 in transition and #2 seriously depleted by injuries doesn’t change things.
shows what it means to the man , can never understand why people write off kerry.. should have won the all-ireland last year and would be in the top 4 teams in contention this year.. galvins a class act!
My minds not all there. I was mixing ye up completely – huge apologies Brian. I am a passionate Kerry man and after his performance I was on a huge high. Do you ever visit the Kerry Gaa forum.

We suffered hurt over the last ten years??? They won around 6 all Irelands FFS! If he was a hurler from Mayo he’d know about hurt.
Lol true but he deserved that award today.
Was just thinking the same thing! What’s the hurtful stuff that’s been written? It’s sport like… If they barely put westmeath away, Of course they’ll be criticised! Great performance today all the same.
Kerry have won 4 All Irelands but also lost 4.
Now tell me if losing an All Ireland is hurtful or not (and Mayo know about those as well)
Tool
He’s a model…a small imitation of the real thing
Mr Galvin is the type of man who threatens most Irish men because he is in touch with his sexuality and spirituality. Judging by he comments here I’d say there are a large number of Irish males who are homophobic AND have turned their back on he church. The reality is that men like Galvin are probably shagging your wives while you’re at he pub drinking.
Cry-baby!!
Jesus man! What a crap actor. He definitely should attend drama classes, along with elocution lessons. That’s the worst effort of forced crying I think I’ve ever seen.
Gwan out and buy another pair of shoes ya langer
Wrong county … Langers are from Cork
no. he is right. just only cork people can say it ya langer
Oh shut up, is there anything as bad as listening to a poor, jealous, obnoxious neighbour. As you`d say yourself “gwan” back to your “republic” or whatever you call that cess pit over the border :-)
Paul galvin, so hot right now. really rockin the tyrone jersey in that pic. match that with some skinny jeans and a man satchel for the perfect summer look
Am involved with GAA all my life and I cant understand the Galvin haters, How do you all know him so well?
I say fair play to him, Love him or hate him, he brings that thing to GAA that we all look for.
well said.
Yeah well said the lad is a out and out footballer. Who cares what else he does. He always gives it all for the Kerry jersey. The begrudgery here is breath taking!
At last somebody with a proper opinion!! Fair play to ya theres too many haters on here
Tis about time he came out!
He wrecks my bulb. Anyone that wears skinny jeans should be shot
anyone who wears badly fitting novelty tshirts should be shot
Have to say if I wasn’t from Waterford then I’d want to be from Kerry. One of the few counties remaining with pride in itself and not one of the many counties full of whinging begrudging small minded knackers.
Win an All Ireland in Hurling and play a bit of Football instead of being bad “one trick ponies”, and then make comments about Kerry Mr. waterford
I think the fact you’re from Waterford says enough about you
Waterford wanna be s again! Up the Rebels!!!!!
Can’t understand how so many Waterford people support Kerry and Kilkenny.
You can’t buy that passion, this Kerry team want it this year, they will be hard to beat after that performance tonight
eh..hard to beat?? they were beaten..
@michael, read it again, hard to beat AFTER that performance.
they mite have beaten tyrone but tyrone are a shadow of what they once were.
So are Kerry
You can only beat what is in front of you…
Every year same thing, unless Kerry hammer everyone, they are considered finished, then what a surprise, they get it together late July, early August… Doesn’t anyone see the pattern – Kerry aim to be at their best in September, not May, not June.
No Andrew, the dirt is still there for all to see,
Forget the tattoo’s, forget the skinny jeans…He is an outstanding footballer and it was great to see that sort of emotion being shown.
You can’t help but admire that sort of passion after the success he has had.
Don’t hate, appreciate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fair City awaits
Great win for Kerry … What a knob that Galvin lad is!!!
Call him what you like but he has been central to every big Kerry win for a very long time. When he plays well they are unbeatable. A great player who does not get the respect he deserves but the All-Ireland medals probably make up for that. This is coming from a Mayo Man.
Well said popcorn. But haters are just going to hate. No point trying to reason with some of the posters on this thread.
Paul Galvin gets the respect he deserves. Hes a talented footballer but he is one of the filthiest players ever to play football. There are numerous incidents every year. That’s why people can’t stand him!
Love or hate him he is the ultimate footballer from a brilliant county that has produced some of the greatest gaa players of all time the stats don’t lie and I’m a true blue dub , and I don’t care what anyone says Kerry should have had a draw last September .
A bit self righteous there jock. Wouldn’t expect that from a Kerry man…and by the way you lost last september so get over it!
You should read his post again he said he was a dub.
I saw that emmet. I’m implying that I find it hard to believe a dub would say that!
Ass-sa-hole-la
what a goddamn hottie
“a hug performance” lol
What a sap
Paul Galvin is a great but downright the dirtiest player inGAA football. That interview was a laugh, he was like the Bull McCabe, ” Tis my field and NO ONE only KERRY owns Sam, Tis mine, do you hear me Yank, Tis mine ?”……. What an actor. The Kerry and Tyrone game was a back door match, 2 division 2 teams in Champioship 2012.
Two division 2 teams? Are you talking about the soccer league or something as last time I checked Kerry weren’t in any second division. Might want to tell the bookmakers too who have them as joint favourites for the All Ireland.
Your some waste of sperm, how do you actually get dressed in the morning without hitting yourself! What a spa
Jealousy will get you no where.
He should meet up with Ronaldo and compare pants!
Out and out begrudgery! Irish people are afraid of anyone that doesn’t follow the crowd…pathetic really!
Bellend!
Paul galvin has given his all to Kerry football and a fantastic player with passion for Kerry football.. He is a footballer speaking after the game when the passion is high.. It’s people like Paul that adds extra to the game.. Deserves man of the match today
Whatever about football, I feel for Mickey Harte right now, because without the heat of the championship he will truly feel the loss of his daughter and the associated injustice in finding the perpetrator.
Edit: if I could remove that comment I would. Not relevant to the thread and I’ve had too much to drink already.
No need to feel bad Micky. Your hearts in the right place. I’m sure they would agree.
Just looked at the video again, he’s a crackpot!
Do you fancy him?
Im in Love
Oh for the love of God, who do they think they are? The usual ole “poor us, we’re great and no one respects us” drivel from the animals back in the kingdom! Ye are finished Kerry, face facts! And I for one would have more respect for a team if their “star” player didn’t have to get involved in every little argument and your other players didn’t dive every time a chance for a soft free or booking showed its head. Colm Cooper rolling around the floor today like he was after getting shot and there nothing wrong with him. And then we have to listen to this rubbish from a fella who can’t even teach anymore cause of the beatings he gave students? Spare me please! The only people hurting Paul are the students you hopped the chalkduster off!
Bitterness is an ugly trait. Its only a game. And I’m not an animal. nn
And what in the name of God would I be bitter over with a Kerry man? The accent? The tourism revenue? Or perhaps (most likely) just I’m from a neighbouring county and sick of the sound of the bulls**t coming from Kerry ever since I was born. From Healy Rae to Galvin, Dara O Se to Daithi O Se, the lot of ye are spoofers that talk such mountains of manure, it’s just hard to stomach some times. And take no notice of the animal references. That’s what we call ye in PROC with years, not a personal dig or anything.
When it comes to the football team how are they spoofers? A team in transition no doubt as they were last year still made a final. Keep your bitterness and begrudgery and grow up.
Listen Emmet when you go to as many games between Cork and Kerry as a Cork fan as I do, come back to me and tell me I am the bitter one! I hold no bitterness or begrudgery towards Kerry, why would I? I just feel ashamed for them, that’s it, change the bitterness record!
Diarmuid relax boy how many football all Ireland’s do your county have
Diarmuid, this why we usually stuff ye on the big days, ye’re all a little bit sensitive and easy to wind up. Always took the ‘animals’ tag as a compliment anyway. thinking ye’re great (PROC…. pffff) isn’t enough, especially in the wide open spaces of Croke Park. Ye keep talking, we’ll keep walking…
That’s more like it lads. Was waiting for ye anxiously! As I say quite regularly to Kilkenny fans or any other one trick pony county, we like to focus on overall GAA and sporting achievement. Granted we don’t have anywhere near the amount of football all irelands as Kerry do, but we are THE most successful GAA county, that is a simple fact! Donnacha, Kerry have beaten us on the big occasion in the noughties which has been hard to witness as a Cork fan, that I admit, but as God is my witness we will hockey ye this year. I am actually delighted ye beat them. I am hoping we meet ye, I will relish the opportunity for Cork to beat ye out the gates, as our players will!
Losing three finals albeit to an excellent Tyrone and the Dubs that is what hurts. Galvin doesn’t compare himself to his contemporaries but to the Kerry team of the 70/80′s. To him and his teammates winning 7 or 8 all-Ireland is what they are looking at however ridiculous that may seem to you. Time is passing and he probably only has this season and two more in him. He will look back at this in the distant future and cringe a little but the weight of expectation and the exorcising of Tyrone demons is what seems to be the cause.
I thought Frank Carson was dead?? whats he doin with whinging Galvin??
Jasus. I was just thinking that myself.
From reading through some of the comments and all the hate on galvin and kerry i have come to this conclusion.
I Smell Fear. Sniff, Sniff. Yep its definately there along with a load of squeeky bums. Kerry starting to make people very nervous. Hate all you want but you cant hide your fear.
I usually hate text speak but LMFAO is quite apt here!!!!
Was at the game today, thought Declan O’Sullivan deserved man of the match. Loads of off the ball stuff Tyrone very dirty in my bias opinion.
ye knaw…
ye knaw….
Off to New York in a Benny t-shirt to celebrate…
Those posting their vitriol might take a second to remember that this guy is swearing blood for his county and doesn’t get paid a penny. The passion he showed in this interview is an antidote to a lot of the prima-donnas getting paid ludicrous amounts for plying their trade in the Premiership. Don’t understand where the hatred comes from? Jealousy maybe? So what if he is passionate about fashion. I don’t think many of you would repeat what you are posting about him in person face to face :) He’s no angel but he is one talented Gaelic Footballer
No need to remove your kind comment Michael, fair play to you for thinking of the Harte family and John, Rip Michaela.
Disrespectful? Ha, Like throwing a duster at a child head is it
cant beat him for talking points folks, and despite showboating on the pitch he always plays the right pass on it. As fir being the dirtiest footballer, he is up there for sure but he isnt alone. Kerry are just a shadow of their former selves, but once more we are seeing the blend of young talent getting blooded with the most experienced team of the last 10 years. They have enough in the tank to deal with anyone, even Cork, but they need to toughen up mentally. That weakness has cost them 4 al irelands in recent years. That is their only failing. I wouldnt worry about the dubs too much.
one thing i do know Dublin wont win Sam Maguire this year ahahahahahaha. Anyone but them
Bet you said the same thing last year
One hit wonders. Still suffering the hang over from coppers last Sept. having said that as a rebel I would rather see Dublin win the the so called Kingdom! Up the Rebels!!!
Couldn’t agree more with choon’s comment above. We are a nation of sheep. I don’t wear skinny jeans myself but if he wants to wear them ,and is not afraid of people sneering behind his back – Fairplay.
THIS IS NOT A GREAT VICTORY. Both teams are no where near the level where they were. This was just the fashonistas chance to gain some exposure.
He did most of his talking on the pitch.
MOTM in a 10 point demolition of Tyrone.
Not as good as they were but by no means a bad team
While delighted Kerry won I must say he hammed it up there. I wouldn’t knock him for pontificating about skinny jeans and Jay Z though, there are more than enough in the GAA who could hold forth on the merits of Zetor
Whatever about the interview etc. the personal comments relating to Galvin are a disgrace. The fact what a man chooses to wear, saying he beat students (when in actual fact he threw a duster at one) shouldn’t even come into this discussion. God knows what hurlers/footballers from counties get up to that doesn’t make the press.nnAsk any student in the school and most will have good things to say. He coached the school team superbly.nnPersonal attacks should not be tolerated.Forums do not allow it. nnFor those questioning his sexuality why not read the papers. His love interests have been commented on. She’s even from Mayo!
Bla bla bla Kerry won end of story galvin is one of the best there is,say what ye want but u can’t beat class
This site is full of idiots from cork spouting shit who have nothing better to do than be negative get a life the lot of ye and stop showing cork people up
“full of idiots from Cork”….go back to bed
Terrible game today, Kerry not the purists some pundits make them out to be. They set out from the first minute to spoil the game and pull Tyrone into a game of petty fouling and mouthing off. Donaghy a disgrace. Cooper rolling around like he’s been shot.
See you in September boyo!
Not unless your from Cork or Donegal Donncha!!
Sam good point I am not a betting man but I can not see anyone who will beat that Kerry team the dubs only put them in bad form last time
ah they gave a hug performance how cute
Crocodile tears. What a joker. More interested in how he looks than anything else. Cry me a river.
In fairness I know nothing about GAA but I can still spot fake tears.
Expand on hiw he is a ‘joker’. As you don’t know much about gaa, here’s one for you. Galvin is an amateur player who puts his life on hold to commit to his team he trains with most nights of the week. You probably do know that. He would need to have a lot of time to ‘care about his image more than anything else’!
He’s a tit,, end of
See that passion in the interview lads? That is exactly why we have 36 All Irelands and also why the rest of ye will never come close to it.
As for the cynical football comments, we played Tyrone at their own game yesterday and our superior football ability shone through. Pity we didnt learn that lesson earlier and we wouldnt have to listen to this crap about not been able to beat Northern teams. That is well and truly put to bed now so they will have to go back to the drawing board to devise some new maslerplan to beat the Kingdom.
We arent deluded enough to think that we will win this All Ireland but its looking a lot healthier than this time yesterday.
Ciarrai abu.
You are the epitome of why Kerry is the one county in Ireland whose fans I can’t even converse with. You beat a re building inexperienced piss poor team in your own backyard in the back door qualifiers and suddenly you’re the best thing since the slice pan. You also somehow feel the need to remind us all of your history! Deal in the present, if it’s not too embarrassing!
Diarmuid, I’d advise you to shut up and stop talking out your arse. You obviously know nothing about football and it’ll be harder for you to take your medicine in September when Kerry win. Stop getting so worked up and go off to watch some golf or something.
Why would I talk about football with an anonymus avatar from Waterford of all places? Ha, you crack me up!
Pat Spillane had his shot at Kerry last weekend knowing full well the response that he would get..cute Kerry hooors. Tyrone were gone before today’s game but shouldn’t have had a man sent off. Kerry show boated, they’ve played no one of real quality yet and won’t until semi or final stage. Galvin is a very good footballer but terrible role model. It’s anybody’s all Ireland!
Shouldn’t have a man sent off??? R u Blind? That kind of attack cannot be tolerated in any game and he got what he deserved. Keeping him in the game would have sent the wrong message.
Ps see ye in choke park
the same ‘choke park’ that kerry have lost to tyrone in their last 3 outings there?? not to mention last years final performance!
Up the Rebels!!! Paul Galvin needs to come out of the closet!! As for the Gouch he needs rehab. Have seen him sink enough to float the Titantic in a now defunct Co Cork nite club long before he donned the Kerry Jersey
Hasn’t he just come out? The Gooch that is, not Galvin!
Gouch no. I have seen too much in the dark days of youth!!! Now Galvin who does he think he is kidding!!!!
Just because he wears skinny jeans and nice clothes does not mean he is gay, come to London you will see alot of straight guys that dress just like him.
As a Dublin fan I enjoyed the game great for the sport ,.going to be a great season
I cant believe how many Kerry fans are on here gloating about a great performance in a game that had 15 yellow cards and on red and some of the most cynical fouling ( by both teams) I’ve ever seen.
I wouldn’t be ordering the open top bus yet if I was jack o Connor. It’s only july but I’ve seen better teams. Can’t see Donegal or cork losing to that Kerry team
Dublin and Cork surely now want to avoid this Kerry team. Cooper to go 5/4
From the comment I’d say the dubs are shi
Bought me a pint in coppers before, nice bloke really, looks well in the skinny jeans.
This thread is the perfect example of that popular culture phrase ‘haters gona hate and players gona play.’.
You could probably even say ‘haters/idiotic teenagers and fat middle aged men who have never achieved anything in sport- gona hate’
Some of the comments such as ‘go buy skinny jeans’ are just genius – its like a Mensa members debate on here
What a sap
I read the comments before I watched the clip and thought they were kind of harsh, even me being from Mayo. No doubt about it, he’s a great footballer and has been a thorn in the side of Kerry’s opposition for the last 10 years or so. But having watched the clip……….. what a muppet!!! Really lets himself down with that kind of s***e. Media commentary shouldn’t bother teams unless it’s coming close to the truth – maybe some doubt creeping in??? Get on with it you fool!
Cork have nothing to fear from Kerry this year, we’ve already shown that. Kerry beat a bad team by 10 points, no big deal. I’d reckon we’ll be seeing Donegal in September, Sam is coming home to Cork again, rebels abú.
It will need google maps to get to cork, it’s been so long…
It’s true what paudie o Shea said about the Kerry fans , their a bunch of animals.!
And you TONY what are u
Yes we are, it may be why we win so much….Rarrrr!
Feck off Galvin, go buy some skinny jeans.
Never mind Kerry V Tyrone the BIG game is tomorrow. Up the dubs!
What hurt have they been carrying with the last 8 – 10 years? From what? Why are they hurting? They have been the most successful county of the noughties whilst getting hailed constantly by the media? I find it hard to understand where this “hurt” is coming from? My guess is it’s more guff from a dirty player!
You seem a bit obsessed and having read through your two most recent post- I see that you seem to be struggling to make a coherent point.
Your silly, small minded bias is very evident which says more about you than anything.
How can you possibly equate Galvin making a point about media hurt (Joe Brolly’s constant jibes if you must know) and him being a dirty player?
Ironic how you tell me I am a silly little man for making personal jibes yet your first reaction is to mock me? Confused much? In any event I won’t stoop to your level as I don’t know you, but, are you honestly telling me that a team of 30 grown men would be close to tears for the last ten years whilst collecting numerous all ireland medals because of one mans comments? Seriously, Paul Galvin and the Kerry team are hurting so much that he is close to tears ten years on because of one idiots comments? Pull the other one will ya! And I don’t even think I am going to get into him being a dirty player argument, cause if you try to say otherwise (given his history) you haven’t a single clue about GAA and the rules Bryan!
Diarmuid, did Paul Galvin kick the life out of you at some stage? Either that or steal your girlfriend? It’s ok, we understand that you need to air your obsessions with the man. It’s good to talk it out.
Are you unable to read?
I have not called you little- I have said small minded- these comments are made without the necessity of having to know you.
All I have to do is read back your personal attacks on Kerry people calling them animals, etc- thats nothing other than childish and pathetic.
I have never said that they were close to tears, only that they were going a response to comments- its one of the oldest motivational tools used in sport for godsake! Some idiot makes comments and the coach comes in and posts that article on the dressing room wall looking for a reaction.
I know enough about GAA rules thank you for asking by the way, but I was not questioning Galvins history (werent you the one who said to stop referring to history, anyway) I was merely stating the fact that you couldnt equate his point with him being a dirty player.
You either dont understand what I am typing or you’re choosing not to- either way as I have already said, it says a lot about your mindset
Bryan do you have to be insulting to make a point? I am prefectly able to read, now please make your point without insulting! I would also ask you to log on to http://www.proc.ie to see that we all call them animals in Cork, even Kerry family I have don’t get bothered by it cause it’s only play acting so get a grip will ya! Either that or learn a bit more about the rivalry between Cork and Kerry before commenting on things you have no idea about.
So Bryan, please explain to me in depth where the hurt that has a grown man in tears on live TV has come from? Please explain who has been hurting them for the last 10 years! If all you can come up with is Joe Brolly, Cork and Dublin teams will need counseling given the stick he has dished out to them over the past few years!
So you think because other people from Cork call Kerry people animals that it is fine? Nice sheep mentality you have there.
Insulting? because I have called you small minded? I have referenced your posts in this so it has not be indisciminate.
Having gone to college in Cork and also played football there, I am well aware of the rivalry between Cork and Kerry. I always found footballers from Cork to be quite respectful of Kerry , its usually those with no involvement at all that produce most of the bitterness.
Read back over your last few comments now, you have suggested I was illiterate, small minded etc, just for having a different opinion to you, and then on the other hand you’ve criticised me for being childish for jostling Kerry and Galvin? You can’t see the hypocrisy there no?
I have no idea what had Paul Galvin emotional after the match, either do you or the majority of people fo that matter. I would imagine it was something to do with the removal of a proverbial monkey that has been on Kerrys back for a while now, ie the inability to beat Tyrone.
You have completely moved off point here though- first you were making attacks on Kerry football and people in general and now realising the folly of this you have resorted to questioning why Galvin was emotional.
I would say that you should have quit while you were ahead but I’d imagine going on your attempts to make a point here that you rarely , if ever, are
Hypocrisy in what context? You’re getting a bit tetchy now because someone has called you up on your personal attacks on Galvin and Kerry in general.
I questioned your ability to read because you attempted to quote me but did so incorrectly.
I called you small minded because well you are small minded- its very evident from your posts, read back over them for godsake
How have I gone off point? Have a good look through all my posts now and tell me how exactly I have gone off point? I have asked numerous times how they are hurting so much given their success? You said above that it all came as a result of Joe Brolly but now have backtracked to monkeys on backs now? So when Galvin said they have been disrespected (in some mafioso kind of way) is this as a result of Tyrone having beaten them 3 times on the noughties? Anyone who beats them is disrespecting them is it? Just trying to understand your ever changing and off the wall logic, excuse me!
I think you’ll find that independent analysis of this dialogue would find you being the tetchy one, given you are now explaining personal attacks on me when I do not have to do the reverse as I have not and would not stoop that low!
My logic hasnt changed at all- its the exact same point. Brolly has discussed this monkey on their back at length therefore they are clearly linked. The disrespect that he refers to was nothing to do with Tyrone beating them and all to do with their credentials being questioned due to not having beaten Tyrone (you really should be able understand this).
Also- my ever changing logic? You have used an example of where you thought it changed once! Thats not ever changing
So your response to me saying that you are tetchy is in effect- ‘no you are’? Nice!
You cant really take the moral high ground in the same thread that you have made constant jibes about Galvin/Kerry football and Kerry people- to even attempt that is ridiculous
Have the last word there Bryan….
Its like trying to discuss something with a petulant child!
Trying to take the moral high ground by telling me ‘to have the last words’ is negated by you even making that statement.
Why must you keep attemptin to reach for it though?
This interview for me sums it up!!!!!
passion, commitment, Love for Kerry & GAA, Hard work, Dedication, PRIDE!
If anyone else had put in as much work as Paul Galvin and the rest of the Kerry team, u probably would be close to tears too ????
Anyone with a small brain can see and remember how Kerry GAA has been praised and slated in the media!
Does anyone understand what’s its like to be a volunteer wearing ur county jersey n have ur every single move reported in the media ( at the end of the day all our GAA players are human and deserve a private life)
Think back, Paul Galvin has been a target on the pitch for years, as have many other players, can u honestly say that u would not react if u ur pushed over the edge ?????
As a Kerry person living and working in London, yes we take pride in our GAA history, let it be also known that when Kerry loose or don’t cross the winning finish line we are well known for throwing the best parties BUT does that give other Irish people in London that drink along side us the rite to insult us , bring our personal lives into it, and think its ok?, answer is NO it dosent
At the end of the day it’s not our fault that a. We were bought up in Kerry and were proud of it b. Kerry’s GAA history is outstanding
To those Kerry GAA Haters , grow up n shut up or put on your football boots get training, the results on field are what matters
Why does it matter if Paul Galvin wears skinny jeans ????Or if the gooch is Gay ( I’m not saying he is, just read it in an earlier post)
I understand that when it comes to Kerry GAA its nearly always 31 against 1 but why be childish with stupid childish personal comments and insults ????
Diarmuid I think Bryan is running rings around you :)
Oh for God sake I give up with you! I never said I was a sheep, there is always mocking goes back and forth, i would hate to live in the sterile world you live in. Please now answer the question I have asked you to answer in depth, if you can that is!
Answer what question? In depth? You have never asked me to answer any question in depth, you are using that phrase in the wrong context completely!
If you were referring to the question about why Galvin was emotional then I already have.
In depth? You give an in- depth answer to a question, you cant ask a question ‘in-depth’
Oh good man, just like I suspected, you now are correcting grammar, I am the child am I? You really are an arrogant boy aren’t you?
Hilarious how you call someone an arrogant boy without even a slight hint of the irony of such a statement.
As I said you seem unable to make a coherent point and all you have done is showcase this and you’re dislike for Kerry.
I won’t correct your grammar there as I feel you are an intelligent individual, with some misgivings granted, and wouldn’t make such a mistake without trying to entice me to enact such a self righteous correction like you did! It’s not in my nature to be so petulant as to go around threads correcting peoples grammar when my argument is found out!
You found out my argument? Go on enlighten me.
Grammar correction? Well you cant really be sanctimonious about correcting grammar mistakes while mentioning them as that dilutes your intention.
Boys simmer down, have a cup of tea.
Apologies – I meant it the other way around :) Bryan you’re being a bit of a fool with some of your Galvin comments
My Galvin comments? Surprisingly considering the title of the article Galvin was rarely mentioned.
What Galvin comment did you find foolish? The one where I said that his disciplinary record was not up for debate or the comment on him being emotional after the match.
Both seemed fairly innocuous to me
One question to all Galvin hating, GAA supporters on here…….
If Galvin was Seanie Johnson and you were from Kildare, would you tell him to f… off back to Cavan?
Two impossible if’s there to make any sort of comparison! I think I see where you are coming from though. Any county would be happy to have had him.. though he’s getting on in years and he’s hot headed. Couldn’t care less about his profile off the pitch and I don’t think anyone else would if he was with their county.
His Tattoos are cool,Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooott
Anyone think Trap will play McClean against Italy tonight? Might as well, sure we can’t get out of the group now in anyways
no doubting there’s great men in that Kerry dressing room. got to respect their passion last-night. Galvin back to his best on and off the field. ferocious work-rate and outstanding distribution. prima donna and attention seeking afterwards. personally i think these 3 extra qualifier games will hurt Kerry if they make it to the latter stages. I’d definitely still rate them behind cork, Dublin, donegal and probably kildare and mayo to win Sam. beating a Tyrone team that’s #1 in transition and #2 seriously depleted by injuries doesn’t change things.
shows what it means to the man , can never understand why people write off kerry.. should have won the all-ireland last year and would be in the top 4 teams in contention this year.. galvins a class act!
My minds not all there. I was mixing ye up completely – huge apologies Brian. I am a passionate Kerry man and after his performance I was on a huge high. Do you ever visit the Kerry Gaa forum.
