“Tipp, Tipp, Tipp, Tipp” is the anthem in the Premier County, though Irish rebel (an actual rebel, not in the Cork sense) Charles Kickham’s song “Slievenamon” gets the odd airing from the terrace on big-match days.
However, now, from the band that brought you “The Premier Rap”, “Lar Outside” and “The Premier Return” comes “This could be our year”.
While the title sounds a little hesitant, doubtful even, the catchy song by Johnny B & The Boogie Men is a rallying call ahead of Sunday’s All-Ireland clash with Kilkenny.

— Dermot Maher (@tomred27) September 3, 2014The question is, though: Will Cahir hurley-maker Johnny B be playing the song to celebrating players and supporters in Thurles next Monday night?
Thurles native Pat Shortt has fired down the gauntlet ahead of the final.
Tipperary are going to kick Kilkenny's arse, apparently.
Only one thing we know for definite.
No way is that a Kilkenny person in the video.
NO WAY.
