Pat is no Bog standard fan of Treaty County

He said: "We have the sombrero ready and a new flag to be unfurled on the day. We've changed the phrase 'In God we trust' to 'In John we trust' and a picture of Limerick's manager John Kiely underneath it. It is freshly made for its virgin voyage to Croker." 

Bog will lead the green and white army of supporters into Hill 16 hoping to see the Shannonside warriors skin the Cats for the second year in a row and secure their fourth in a row All Ireland title.

For Bog, marching to Croker for the hurling final for the last four years has been "the stuff of dreams".
