    Edward Dorrigan Ballyger Jbridge, Dromod. 75 years. clever hard worker and capable farmer. He sang the song below for me as he pitched in turf I bought from him About 42 years ago he was one of this victorious team that "won all before them for 12 yrs" Up to this day Rormacoola has excellent footballers including "Nipper" but the rest of the County must not be equal to them since they do not get to Croke Park.
