Crokes draw first blood in battle with Cross!

On Tuesday next it will all be resolved on Croker's sacred sod but, for now, Kilmacud Crokes can boast that they have the beating of the mighty Crossmaglen men.  Yesterday, on national radio, Adam Coughlan and his brainy brigade claimed top prize in the 2fm quiz hosted by Robbie Irwin.  You can hear it all again at this link (start is approx 35mins into the podcast):

It is rumoured that the supporting cast included these and maybe other gifted Crokers ....  Cuan O Flaharta, Conor Noone, Alan Maher, Daire Brennan and Niall Behan.

AIB sponsor the quiz and will be presenting Kilmacud with €2000 first prize.  Well done lads,  hope it's an omen of things to come!

P.S. there had been speculation that a general knowledge teaser might be posed in a tie-break situation, along the lines of a lengthy palindrome; they were ready for that too with this "Madam I'm Adam" !!
