Week That Was - Aug 17th to 23rd

from Over The Bar

Episode 2 of Week That Was takes us back to some remarkable moments from this week in GAA history. We look at two major championship games that didn’t make it to regulation length, and the very different circumstances that brought them to an early conclusion. There’s also the story of how Kerry tamed an Ulster uprising, as the Kingdom faced a new challenge from the rapidly emerging northern counties. And we revisit Fermanagh’s extraordinary run to their first-ever All-Ireland Senior Football Championship semi-final — a journey that took a county with no provincial title to within touching distance of the biggest day of all.For those who want more Gaelic Games History, you can join our Cairde Club for less than the price of a match programme for month - where you'll get exclusive episodes, bonus content, ad free and early release versions of the main podcast.
