One of Cork’s greatest sporting icons was laid to rest today, Teddy McCarthy, the only man to win an All-Ireland senior hurling and football medal in the one year. The guy was an absolute legend of Cork GAA and did something that will ever be done again in the history of the GAA.

Poignant in so many ways…but what a send-off. https://t.co/GWRFyYnLBT

Teddy will be fondly remember on the banks of the river lee by many, those were the golden years of Cork GAA. We send our best wished to his close family and friends at this difficult time. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis
Another disappointing year for Cork again this year on the pitch, hopefully Cork and win the Liam McCarthy cup sooner rather than later.
