 The Kingdom - 2003/03/26: GAA: Tyrone power past Kingdom
Tyrone s goal in the 27th minute was a bit unfortunate from a Kerry perspective.
Tyrone’s first half scorers were Stephen O’Neill with three points, one from a free, Peter Canavan with a goal and a pointed free and Sean Cavanagh and Eoin Mulligan who chipped in with a point each.
Just when we thought that Tyrone were spun out, they regrouped and they scored two consecutive points from their midfielders, McNallen and Cavanagh, to restore their five point lead and thirteen minutes of normal time remaining.

 Slugger O'Toole: Tir Eoghain Abu
Posted by: Oilbhéar Chromaill at September 25, 2005 05:35 PM Congrats to Tyrone- a fascinating final and confirmation (if it were needed) that they are firmly established as the premier county in Ireland.
I suppose I knew that Tyrone or Down didn't have a chance of their country's National Anthem being played before the game as is custom in international football matches(soccer as Americans and Gaelic fans refer to it as).
The GAA is by no means a cold house for protestants, our most famous piece of silverware is named after a protestant and our past president was a protestant.
