    I remeber Paul Flynn scoring penalty or 21 yard free. Rifled it into the net in typical skinner flynner fashion.

    Ball hit the net, Ger Canning "its a goal"

    Flynn celebrates

    Cyril states the obvious "he went for it Ger"

    Always found that funny

    Classic Cyril playing down a bit of afters between Kilkenny and Clare in the hurling.

    "Ahhh sure you'd see more pushing and shoving after second mass on a Sunday".

    And of course "tis like throwin nuts to a monkey out there Michael"

    The cinderall under the Christmas tree reference came from the 2010 Munster hurling final replay, played on a rainy Saturday night in Thurles and went to extra time, the lights came on, the rain glistened and Cyrill was loving it

    Barry Foley was talking a line ball against Cork in 2001 to put us ahead and Cyril pipes up along the lines of "he could well put this over Ger"

    Barry steps up puts it over the black spot and Cyril "ah yeah hes good at them Ger"

    Nuts to a monkey is a great one and the usual "game on now Ger"

    Would you say Cyril eats 'foddin food' ?. Like lasagna, pizza, curry, Chinese etc.
    Id say his daily diet is, porridge and a boiled egg for breakfast, hang sambos and tay for lunch, maybe a bag of tayto, boiled schpuds, cabbage or carrots and a big lump of meat for the dinner. Followed by more tay and a few digestive bishcuits.

    As much as I love Cyril, I wonder how tourists or anyone from abroad would be expected to be able to understand either him or Michael Duignan.

    I don't think Cyril would be bothered..as such, and Davy Fitzgerald said he doesn't care who understands him..so he doesn't.(anyway he has 2 fukkin allIreland medals..so he does)

    "Bang, back of the net". He always used to say "it's like giving nuts to monkeys", but I haven't heard him saying it recently.

    Absolutely love listening to Cyril Farrell, comes out with some great one-liners and is generally spot on.

    Anyone else think he looks like Fargo Boyle?
