Steven McDonnell, who has just been telling the Irish Examiner why he started supporting Liverpool, lets out a laugh when reminded of the story. Dara Ó Cinnéide still scratches his head when he explains that his old teammate Aodhan Mac Gearailt is an Ipswich Town man. McDonnell, Cork’s Brian Hurley, and Kerry’s Ó Cinnéide all plumped for Liverpool when their fathers and/or brothers had a leaning towards United. Hurley will do what he always does for a game and pop down to his friend Alan Leonard’s house. If you’re a fan of football you have to respect what Liverpool are doing now.”A new generation of Irish Reds await us.
